Knowledgable, fun, safe and caring - Great Value - Highly Recommend!
5/5

Such a wonderful tour! Our tour guide, Dexter, was extremely knowledgeable about Kenya's animals, history and culture. He gladly answered our questions and we learned a great deal. Dexter was also very attentive and thoughtful to each visitor. He would anticipate our needs, making sure that everyone was always comfortable and happy.

During game drives Dexter seemed to always know where to find the animals; we got much closer to them than I expected. And we learned so much about each one! I only brought a cell phone as my camera, yet I still got close-up photos of lions, elephants, and so many more. It was a huge bonus that Dexter is also a photographer. He would often stop at perfect locations for us to take the best pictures. For example he would point out lone trees to photograph and show us how to frame it for a beautiful photo.

Another important advantage to having Dexter as your guide and tour director is that he speaks perfect English with only a slight accent. He is very easy to understand! Some group members struggled to understand other guides.

Our tour was a great value. Even though it wasn't priced high, we always stayed in wonderful hotels with fabulous food. The service was top notch, as well. Just brace yourself for three buffets a day. Whew!

The tour far exceeded my expectations! Go to Kenya; it is AMAZING! And I highly recommend Kiboko Kenya Safaris.

Amazing guide and an excellent tour!
5/5

Fabulous guide, amazing safari, impeccable organization…unforgettable! My husband, parents and I couldn’t have hoped for a better experience. Edward Karioki made the safari a trip of a lifetime. He was professional, polite, accommodating and had such a great passion and enthusiasm for educating us about the wildlife in Kenya. In addition, the itinerary covered a lot of sights and came with well appointment accommodations. Edward was determined that we would see as many animals as possible and ensured that we had the best vantage point, whether it was to see a pride of lions feasting on a Cape buffalo, watching a leopard stalk Thomson’s gazelles or watch a mother cheetah ushering her cubs across the Amboseli plains. I would wholeheartedly recommend Kiboko Kenya Safaris, and request to have Edward as your guide. He will truly enhance the experience!

Dexter was easy to be around- friendly, knowledgeable, competent, patient, and dedicated.
5/5

It was very easy to understand Dexter, even in a noisy jeep. Other guides could be difficult to understand, but his English was excellent. He was very caring and obviously cared a lot about his profession and taking care of us tourists. All the African guides I interacted with seemed very motivated to show us the best wildlife and scenery they could find, and Dexter was no exception. It was an amazing trip.

Absolutely the best!
5/5

I have already written this in my Tour company review, but I will try to remember the main points. Dexter is an incredibly talented driver, with safety always foremost in his actions. We had a very poor “ Official” Tour Director and Dexter took on many of those duties, so that our trip was wonderful, Despite the official director. He is such a warm caring individual. He knows everything there is to know about the country in the parks And he is incredibly funny. Several of our fellow travelers were envious that we were assigned to the “ Dexmobile.” My favorite pictures are photos that he suggested taking - And the really good ones are the ones he took for us ! Not only did we have an incredible time, mostly due to Dexter’s help and understanding, but I felt like I left Kenya with a new friend. Just a wonderful person to spend time with. And as I said before, he could not possibly be any better at his job. He excel that everything.

5/5

I came with a group of friends and we all had wonderful time.
Dexter speaks excellent English and easy to talk too. He’s also a great driver who always finds perfect photo spots for us. I had some of great pictures taken because of his help.
We had such great time in Kenya and saw all big fives the second day when we’re arrived. Thanks to Dexter and Charles.
I’ll definitely see Dexter again if I ever come back!

Excellent Trip! Would definitely choose them again!
5/5

We have 14 people in the group, they definitely manage it well. Our drivers are Charles and Dexter. We really enjoyed our trip with them. I followed Charles’ car most of the time. He is very talented in finding animals and he is a super experienced driver who drives safely! He has a good knowledge of the Savana and animals and he is a very good teacher, answering all of our questions during the game drive patiently. I personally learned a lot and developed great interest to learn more. Our group agreed that we would go back and choose them again! Thank you Charles and Dexter!

5/5

The vehicles were clean and well maintained, the drivers were fun, professional and respectful of the animals. Excellent value for money and again, the drivers made it excellent. We had a very good lunch as well! Clare was very good at managing our groups tour details. We never had to wonder what was going on because communication was excellent 👌

Kickass Kiboko Kenya Safaris
4/5

The only reason I give a good, and not excellent rating, is because I had about 7500 schillings go missing from my wallet on the last day sometime while being transported from camp to the airstrip. Other than that, everything about the safari was excellent. Welcoming, friendly, and helpful staff all along the way. Was never too long without seeing an animal. Think I pretty much saw every animal except for a rhino out there.
Overall wonderful trip of a lifetime experience. Would highly recommend
