Reviews
Excellent / great value
Transtrek fulfilled a lifelong dream for me by being totally affordable. We were looked after from the moment we landed until we left and everything in between. The hotels / lodges we stayed at were fantastic we felt like we were living in the lap of luxury seeing some of the most spectacular wildlife during the day and night. Sitting in the bar at Kilaguni with a gin and tonic in my hand overlooking a waterhole seeing the most wonderful wildlife made me feel like a king. Being taken around in comfortable vehicles around the parks was just amazing. I couldn't recommend them enough.

Amboseli/Tsavo West Safari
Daniel arranged a great three night safari for us to Amboseli and Tsavo West in January. His local knowledge helped us plan an interesting trip that effectively used the time which we had available. He found us good quality accommodation at a reasonable price. We also used his Toyota Land Cruiser which has a lift up roof that gave us great views of the animals. His driver, Peter, was brilliant. Peter knew the wildlife and used his local contacts in the Park to find out the position of the latest sightings. We saw lions, cheetahs and a leopard in those three days. We have used Transtrek again since this trip and I would definitely recommend them.
A brilliant introduction to Africa
From the first email providing advice ,until boarding the plane home, Transtrek provided a seamless service discussing our particular requirements ,suggesting possibilities and then delivering a holiday which the family will never forget.
We saw so much, be it the animals, birds , the drama of the landscapes or the people. The visit to the Masai village will always remain the highlight with Kilimanjaro & elephants in the background. The driver, Peter, was fabulous, finding all the big animals including a pride of lions with cubs and answering our endless questions with enthusiasim. The accomodation that Transtek booked was unforgetable whether the park lodges or the tented village.
We cannot wait to return

Best Safari Company Out There With a Personal Touch!
I was in Kenya doing research for my disseration for 28days and Transtrek organised a few mini Safaris for me to go on and I absolutely LOVED every trip. I went to Cresent Island, Nairobi National Park, Paradise Lost and an Elephant orphanage. I was able to see all the animals i wanted to like Lions, Giraffes and elephants alongside other animals i've never seen before. Transtrek were very attentive and as its a small family business they were able to provide a personal touch which was appreciated. They listened to everything i wanted and gave me so much more than I could have imagined!
I would recomend Transtrek to anyone looking to go on a safari holiday. It is an affordable luxury holiday which sounds paradoxical but with Trantrek is possible!!

A mind-blowing trip...
We had a relatively short 10 days in Kenya, but the team at Transtrek were superb and really helped us get the most out of our time. They put together a great itinerary for us, covering a range of habitats and special sites, staying at perfectly chosen lodges. We covered a lot of ground and really packed in a lot but the helpful, friendly and knowledgeable Transtrek team made us feel relaxed and right at home. If we’re lucky enough to visit the region again we will be back in touch with Transtrek to organise our next safari!

Well organised, interesting and exciting.
This was my first safari, and I could not have wished for a better experience. Everything was planned well, everywhere we stayed was excellent and everybody was helpful. Certainly a professional team. We visited Amboseli, Tsavo, Naivasha and Nakuru and saw the 'Big Five' as well as many, many other animals. A truly breathtaking trip. Highly recommended.

Very well run and professional, but with a personal touch
The safari was everything we had hoped for, and more. It was very well organised, the service was personal but still professional, the different accommodations were all excellent, and we had a marvellous time with a knowledgeable driver in a comfortable and suitable vehicle. A fantastic experience all round.
