Budget safari 6 days
This Safari trip was very good. The guide/driver James Gichina was very professional and led us to see many animals, all the big five and much more and explained us their lifestyle. It was really great to see the animal world with our own eyes. In addition, the accommodation conditions were simply but good. It was an unforgettable travel experience.

Reasonable budget option
We booked a private camping 6-Day safari covering the Maasai Mara, Nakul, and Amboseli National Parks. Were then almost forced into a non-private trip at last minute due to a mix up on tour operator’s end, but ultimately got what we paid for. Our driver, James was professional and friendly. Vehicle was comfortable, and we saw all the big highlights in terms of wildlife. Itinerary of day 3 did not include everything on the initial description (no visit to Hell’s Gate NP near Naivasha for example. I were to do this again, I would probably go with a shorter option - 6 Days of safari become a little too much. Camps stayed in were all comfortable and to our liking.

Very good experience
we did a 6 day safari with Dennis, which was amazing. very attentive to our needs, he explained and told us every aspect of this wonderful country. We had a great time with him, I would recommend him to anyone! as for the camps, you have to know how to adapt, there is no shortage of insects and cleanliness is not a must.

Fantastic time
Steve was great, we overall had a fantastic time Brightness...
The timing, professionalism and general outlook where we stayed was on point.
The wild life experience in Amboseli was also one we will never forget.

Covered most bases
Our driver/guide (Dennis) made our safaris very enjoyable. He is very knowledgeable, punctual, has a good sense of humour and is always smiling. I would rate him as 41/2 stars out of 5

Unforgettable Safari with Jhon!!
We did our 7gg-Safari through Masai Mara/Lake Nakuru/Amboseli/Tsavo East. We were able to watch so many animals including the big five more than once! But start from the begging:
- we fit our personalized private jeep tour itinerary with Minneh by mail and she was very kind. Her price is very competitive (in a budget accommodation).
- the driver was waiting for at the airport at Nairobi and he dropped off in Watamu
- we had some problems the first day due to the amount when because given that the currency she tried to get high the agreed price but after saveral negotiations we agreed the price and payment method (she tried to not accept small banknotes) .
- budget accommodation is a good wild status for living this amazing experience but to be honest, in my opinion, Mara Lenchada Camp in Maasai Mara is to the limit of what may be acceptable (not recommended!) nice experience instead in Nyati Safari Camp at Amboseli (Jocky Tours changed our accommodation at last minute for this cheaper place with not refunding the difference price). Amazing experience at Buraha Zenoni in lake Nakuru (great hotel), and at Voi Safari Lodge in Tsavo East.
- least but not least, the driver: our Jhon, a great man with whom we have lived an unforgettable Safari! He's so much kind and funny; a man with a great experience and knowledge about Safari but also as a safe driver crossing the country (we ride more than 2k kms more or less). He always taked care of us and thanks to him we spotted all the animals, including the most rare ones (we saw leopards twice and rhynos!).
Thank Jhon and Hakuna Mat*t* 😂 (the * isn't an error, let you explain that to your driver).
Jambooooo!!

Amazing experience thanks to the guide!
This was our first safari, me and my partner had a 6 days budget safari Masai Mara Nakuru naivasha Amboseli. It has been a great experience, we saw all the big five and a lot of different animals. Our guide Charles K. managed everything on time and drives us to see amazing scene everywhere, explaining about animals and lands. The accommodation were good enough. Thank you Charles!!!
The only negative was we were not told that the payment by card has a extra cost due to the exchange, around 6%. If we would know we organized differently, it is not a detail. For this I cannot give 5 star.

Very good agency
We spent two days of our Safari with this agency to visit Lake Nakuru. We had a good time and everything was followed as planned. We recommend it for your Safari in Kenya!
