A good Safari.
4/5

It was nicely organized. on time and it was co ordinated very well with very minimal urging from us. I wish we had been given advanced notice about timing of the elephant park. other than that it was smooth ride. the guide knew the park very well and where to find the animals for viewing.

Fabulous , I must say
4/5

Pros - A fantastic experience . The whole interaction with Pamela starting from initial stages till the very end and even now has been wonderful. She was very patient in answering all our queries and understanding our requirement. Our driver Peter was very professional and handled his job exceptionally well. He was outstanding in driving us through the forest and help us spotting the wildlife.

Cons - We weren't happy about the hotel that was booked in lake Nakuru . I guess it was called Chester. The condition of the vehicle can be improved or the existing vehicles should be replaced with better ones consider the terrian in the forest and also enroute.

Well organised with knowledgeable guide cum driver
4/5

Excellent service. The safari was well organised by the operator eventhough our trip was only for two days. The tour schedule is discussed well in advance and the Guide cum driver strictly followed the schedule as agreed . The vehicle is Ok but could have been better considering the road conditions . Nevertheless we enjoyed every minute of the trip

Marvellous bush tour....
4/5

Me and my friend Sudhen Pai took the safari from Oct 2nd to 7th, 2016. I should confess that it was much more thrilling than what we had anticipated. Pamela and the driver, Daniel met us at our hotel in Nairobi and we proceeded to Masai. We had opted for budget accommodation at Mara sidai camp. Evening we visited Masai village and interacted with the tribesmen. Next whole day was the safari. We could see almost all the wild animals, including a feeding Cheetah, lions, hyena, elephant, hippos, giraffe s and off course thousands if not more of gazelles, wildebeest and zebras..being a keen bird watcher, I had seen many varieties , but then we couldn't spare much time for them..next day we covered Lake Naivasha and Nakuru. Its a paradise for bird watchers. Our last destination was samburu, where we stayed at the posh Samburu Sopa lodge. The resort was fantastic including the stay, bar and the restaurant. The safari at samburu was phenomenal in terms of birds and animals. We could see the reticulated girafe, grevy's zebra, guinea fowl, hornbills, lions, cheetah in hunting mode , leopards etc. We headed back to Nairobi and had a lunch at the famous Seven sea grills at ABC mall where we could meet the celebrity chef Kiran Jethwa. All the while, our driver Daniel was enthusiastic. Maybe, if u need bird watching, you should inform earlier to get a guide who is well versed with them . Pamela visited us again and asked us about the trip. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience and we didn't have any hiccups whatsoever during the whole trip. Would recommend Magical retreats to anyone. Happy safari !

4/5

We had a very nice experience with Magical Retreats. From airport pick up to drop, the communication and service was very good. The personal touch in every aspect is really amazing! Safari at Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara was really good with whole day and early morning drives. Catering to the customers needs according to their budget is one the plus point too.

Overall polite and professional team

I lost KES. 20,000 shillings with Pamela who’s the key person of Magical retreat. After all my support to her and the company she took my money despite of several requests and communication.
So not trust worthy!!!
