Our tour operator went the extra mile and cared greatly about giving us the best experience possible
I would highly recommend Defenders Safari. Our guide Caleb was kind, informative, and genuinely passionate about providing the best experience for the people and animals. He was an excellent driver and very punctual. I felt that we got a great value for our money. I will definitely recommend this company and our guide to our friends and family. We plan on using this tour operator when we return to Africa. They were quick to communicate with us and easily made adjustments when needed. 10/10!

The Big and Ugly 5
We were incredibly lucky to see the big and ugly 5 during our trip to Kenya and the national parks. Caleb “KingFisher” our tour guide is an amazingly friendly and knowledgeable person. I don’t think it would have been possible for us to complete this wonder feat without him. Communication before and during the trip was smooth and reliable. At the end of every day we knew exactly what we had plan for the following day. I would recommend this trip to friends and family 10 out of 10! Thanks for a trip of a lifetime!!

Fast response, friendly staff, feel safe as a solo traveler
Rose and team were always helpful during my entire journey as a solo traveler - very quick response (not a single minute) and they always tried to provide a satisfactory solution when there was anything unclear… I learned that communication is the key when doing safari tour especially as you might be with people from
different tour providers in a vehicle, at first it was confusing but Defender team would guide you along the way very well!
Thanks for the amazing trip!

Well-organised small business who coordinated all our transport and accommodation in a hybrid tour
Rose made all the arrangements, ensuring we were taken care of from our arrival to our departure. We were collected at the airport, taken to the office to finalise payments, then driven to Nakuru via Lake Naivasha for the first two days as a private tour (just the two of us and our driver/guide, Joseph). After an overnight in Nakuru we drove to the Maasai Mara, joining up with several others on the way. We spent two nights at Miti Mingi camp and enjoyed game drives in the Mara before continuing on our itinerary. We travelled via Nairobi (on the day of protests - as seen on world news), with a change of vehicle and driver/guide (Moses) to Amboseli. We spent two nights at Nyati Safari Camp and had game drives in Amboseli. We were then driven to Namanga border crossing and assisted with exit from Kenya and entry to Tanzania before being driven to Arusha where we stayed at the Charity Hotel. Next morning we were collected by Amani and, together with a small group, drove to Ngorongoro and Serengeti. We had game drives in the Serengeti and in the Ngorongoro Crater, spending one night at Shuhudia Adventure Camp and the next at Rhino Lodge. Both were excellent. Finally we returned to Arusha and our last night at the Charity Hotel. Next morning we were collected and put on the shuttle back to Nairobi and our flight home. Despite a few small hiccups (such as the shuttle breaking down about half way back to Nairobi) and the disturbance caused by the protests against the proposed finance bill, we had a good safari and saw plenty of animals and birds. The guides were informative and helpful and the whole thing was well-organised by Rose in Nairobi.

Safari line defenders, especially our driver, Freddie gave us an incredible experience!
Safari line defender tours were amazing for us. My husband and I did a 3 day private safari at Amboseli. We asked if they could pick us up from Diani and then drop us off afterwards in Nairobi and they were happy to do so! They organized every part of the travel, got us a driver, booked us train tickets, and had our driver waiting for us when we arrived to drive us to Amboseli. Before the trip, they communicated with us well and clearly and responded very fast. Safaris are just expensive, but we felt like this one was a little more affordable while still providing everything we wanted! We were more than happy.
We had Freddie as our driver and he was incredible! He helped us find everything we wanted to see and did an amazing job getting us to the front of the group when there was a crowd looking at something. He was relaxed and not stressful and helped us feel right at home. He was what made our actual safari experience amazing.
We stayed at Nyati camp, and had a great experience there as well! They were flexible to give us meals when we needed them and packed us lunches on our full day safari.
At Amboseli, we had a great experience! We saw every type of animal you could see there. We saw Lions and Cheetahs (and 5 cubs!) multiple times. We saw such magnificent elephants and giraffes.

The Ultimate Safari Experience: Comfort, Adventure, and Spectacular Service
I recently completed a 10-day Magical Kenya Safari with Safariline Defender Tours, and as someone who has been on more than five safaris, I can confidently say this was one of the most magical experiences I've had.
From the moment I inquired about the trip, the communication with Rose was seamless. She was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and ensured every detail was taken care of.
The itinerary was perfectly curated, taking me from the iconic Masai Mara to the stunning Lake Nakuru National Park, then to the unique landscapes of Samburu, the serene beauty of Lake Naivasha, and finally, the majestic Amboseli.
What truly set this safari apart was our guide Jeff. Friendly, professional, and deeply passionate about the wildlife and landscapes of Kenya, he made each day an adventure. His expertise and ability to spot wildlife, share interesting facts, and ensure we were always in the right place at the right time made the experience even more special.
The 4x4 Land Cruiser provided for the journey was incredibly comfortable, even during the long drives between parks. It was well-equipped with everything we needed for a smooth and enjoyable ride, ensuring that the sometimes challenging terrain was never an issue.Every lodge and camp we stayed at was top-notch, offering a great mix of comfort, incredible views, and excellent service.
The entire trip was well-organized, with smooth transitions between destinations, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of Kenya without any worries.If you're looking for a safari that combines excellent service, knowledgeable guides, a well-planned itinerary, and a comfortable, well-equipped vehicle, Safariline Defender Tours is an excellent choice. Whether it's your first safari or your tenth, they have a way of making it feel like the adventure of a lifetime.

A familly safari adventure made perfect by safariline defender tours
Our recent family safari with Safariline Defender Tours was nothing short of perfect. Traveling with my husband and our 4-year-old child, we were initially concerned about finding a safari that would be both exciting and comfortable for all of us. However, Safariline exceeded our expectations from the start.
Our trip included 2 days in the stunning Masai Mara and 3 days in the awe-inspiring Amboseli. The entire journey was seamless, thanks in large part to Rose, who was our main point of contact. Her impeccable Safari Company, prompt communication, and thoughtful planning were key to the success of our trip. She truly made sure every detail was covered, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment.
The safari itself was incredible. Our guide was patient, knowledgeable, and fantastic with our child, making sure he was engaged and excited throughout the journey.
The accommodations were family-friendly, with beautiful views and excellent service. The staff at each lodge made us feel welcome, and the experience was both safe and adventurous. Seeing the Big Five up close, exploring the vast landscapes, and enjoying the rich culture were highlights we will never forget.
If you're looking for a family-friendly safari that combines adventure, comfort, and outstanding service, I highly recommend Safariline Defender Tours. Thanks to Rose and the incredible team, this was a journey our family will cherish forever.
