Loyce and her team went above and beyond
Loyce and her team were so amazing. She organised every aspect of our safari and all the logistics and helped to book further travels up Mt kenya afterwards. We got to see so many animals and didnt feel like we were just going were everyone else went. Loyce and her team were so full of information and so easy to get along with. I would 100% travel with her again Loyce and her team went above and beyond.

Loyce is so accommodating!
We did a three day safari including a hot air balloon ride which was my highlight! Went to the Masai Mara and Nairobi National Park. Loyce was so accommodating and helpful throughout the whole trip.
Cannot fault the experience.
A Magical and Unforgettable Safari Experience
Pounds East Africa Safaris provided an amazing experience with a safari through the Masai Mara. Loyce was so knowledgeable around the local culture and the animals. She was extremely friendly and always happy to answer the many questions from our group. We were lucky enough to see 4 out of the big 5 on our trip and were able to get an amazing view of all animals. Loyce and our driver were very professional but also made the experience feel like we were on a tour with our local friends. I highly recommend Pounds East Africa Safaris to everyone, it was an amazing trip and one that I hope to do again

Amazing African safari experience
Pounds East Africa Safaris offer an amazing unforgettable experience. I experienced the Masai Mara and Nairobi National Park and highly recommend both experiences. Loyce is absolutely wonderful and ensures you have a great experiences even when life throws challenges at the schedule and plans need to change for reasons beyond control. I experienced skilled guides who had incredible knowledge of the animals and parks who were approachable and genuinely care about the well-being of the animals and tourists. Loyce had clearly built rapport with local communities, restaurants and guides ensuring a quality experience for all. Pounds East Africa Safaris are trustworthy, reliable and exactly who you should rely on for an amazing safari experience.

Loyce is very caring and does well meeting her travellers needs.
Second time experience, and both were as good as each other. We saw many animals, not disappointed. Lionesses feeding on a wildebeest was a highlight. A balloon flight is a must do and experiencing the culture of the Massi Mara adds to the entire adventure. We also went to Amboseli for the many elephants within the park. We were, one happy family and highly recommend a few days on a safari with Loyce and driver Simon.

Amazing and unforgettable safari trip
We planned a 7d6n safari trip with Loyce and team and it was just an incredible experience . Everything from the planning stages to the actual adventure itself was absolutely fantastic.
The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife, making sure we got the best possible sightings. We saw a whole variety of animals including the Big 9! It was breathtaking to see them all in their natural habitat.
The accommodations were comfortable and the food was delicious, which made for a truly relaxing and enjoyable experience.
I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing safari adventure.
Would definitely book with them again!

Very Caring, Made the Experience amazing
Loyce was our coordinator for the safaris. She was amazing. Making sure we got the full African experience. The three days was something that i never believed i could have experienced. I was with company before hand for a medical volunteer program. Loyce took us under her wing, made sure everything was perfect. I highly recommend this company and their drivers. looked after our safety. This company took it very serious. Wouldn't want any other safari company.

Incredible experience! Warmest people and most amazing sights <3
Pounds East Africa is our favourite safari business to tour with.
Communications with them (especially the wonderful Loise!) is easy and quick, so any pre-trip anxieties were calmed almost immediately. My husband and I had some issues with our flight into Kenya but the Pounds team was exceptionally kind, understanding and flexible, allowing us to shift activities and dates around so we could make up for lost time (due to our own personal mistake!). There was nothing we had to confirm or check into ourselves as Loise had everything covered for us! We had also engaged Pounds to arrange our safari trip into Tanzania, and there was no point in which we had to concern ourselves with where we were going and how we were to reach our destination. Service was wonderfully seamless.
The guides (John and Kikitu) were both amazing as well! John was relentlessly professional and reliable. Kikitu was a ball of sunshine - seriously (and I can't emphasise this enough) have never met a man happier and more optimistic than he is. We saw a multitude of animals thanks to them both, and it all came with fun, insightful facts and commentary.
Accommodations, food and the safaris were all great. The lodgings were tailored to our budget and was great value for money! For us, we chose a good range of different accommodations and whether it was a tent, hotel or a nice lodge, they were all more than satisfactory. Most importantly, we had good food almost everywhere we went.
We are so thankful to Lois for the entire safari trip, and we're so glad we can trust her and the Pounds team to take care of anything and everything. Overall, I would recommend Pounds East Africa Safaris over and again to anyone considering a trip to the safaris!
