Highly Recommend and Great Value
Papa was a great guide and also a great driver!
The Masai Mara was an amazing experience, from seeing the animals in their natural habitat, having picnics close to hippos, and meeting the Masai tribe, myself and my partner have memories that will last forever.
Lake Nakuru has a totally different landscape (with different animals and birds) and it was great that it was included in the itinerary.
The accommodation was top notch, it was great to eat traditional Kenyan food whilst discussing what happened during the day with fellow travellers.
Great trip!

The most stunning safari!
The safari with Benjamin was amazing! He was the best guide/teacher about wild life. The whole time we felt really secure. Benjamin told us so much about the animals we saw. Also he showed us so many animals that are not easy to spot. He made the safari unforgettable! Asante sana!

An adventure of a lifetime to Maasai Mara!
The booking was very easy, and they were responsive to all my questions. As a female solo traveler, I want to feel safe and prepared, and they definitely helped me out with that.
I would recommend you make absolute sure with the tour operator about how to pay for entry into Maasai Mara, and be prepared for this on the day of. This was literally the only thing that went "wrong" for me, but it was fixed quickly.
Our driver and guide, Benjamin, was incredible. Very friendly. He has a lot of experience, and it shows. He was a fun person to interact with, and he was good at getting 4 sets of strangers that packed into his vehicle, to become a team, together! We were all bonded at the end of this short trip!
Everyone involved in making this trip happen for us were punctual, for the most part. Lodging was great, peaceful, and had delicious food.
Maasai Mara is one of the most beautiful places I have ever experienced. The animals were incredible, as well!
Even though the entry fees for high seson into Maasai Mara are very steep, I would say this experience is truly priceless. If you have a chance, go!

Efficient and Professional
We did the 5 day tour including Maasai Mara, Naivasha and Nakuru, we enjoyed the whole experience. Our guide, Dennis, friendly and approachable, and very knowledgeable about the animals. We saw so many animals, and the cycling at Hell's Gate was a particular highlight for us. Would definitely recommend for a budget safari which hits all the main parks in Kenya. As a side note, the food is simple but plentiful.
Excellent excellent guide - ok accomodations
Our guide Johnnie Jackson was super duper excellent!! We saw the big 5 right away and also saw 7 cheetah one day as well as quite a few lions (1 male and 1 female were right next to our vehicle) and even a leopard! He knew right where to find the animals and made each day fun and interesting. He was concerned about everyone in our group and was patient, kind and flexible. The only downside of the safari were a couple of the accommodations. They were definitely budget and we knew that going in, but we're still surprised by the lack of cleanliness, broken tiles, and no hot water.
