Worthy; Responsible
This is the most impressive trip I've ever experieced. I had compared several company, and this one offered a low price but good accommodations. Meanwhile, service is not bad, we meet a confusion first night about Kibo Camp but Buymore Advanture indeed contacted with them and fix that soon. The only one thing is we didn't discuss enough about the antenna before, but the customer service respond immediately and take much time to explained that. The guide Lee has very good drive skill, he don't talk too much but knows the names of the animals, and made sure that safety first throughout.
I will choose this travel agency again if I come back again.

Efficient service and lovely safari tour
Our overall experience with Buy more adventure's safari has been amazing! Nadzua is very responsive and accommodating to my inquiries. We visited Amboseli, Lake Naivasha and Maasai Mara. Charles was our tour guide and driver, and we can tell he's experienced. He knew the best area to spot wildlife. We only have 1 full day game drive in Maasai Mara yet we were able to see a pride of lions feasting over a kill, Cheetah, Hyena, Cape Buffalo, Hippos, Crocodile in Mara River and the awesome view of the Wildebeest migration. It was such an unforgettable and spectacular experience!! We also saw a lot of herbivores and other animals. The safari is def worth it.
At the end of the tour, Charles dropped us off our preferred hotel in Nairobi. He is such a warm and friendly guide. He also convinced us to visit the Maasai tribe and I'd say it is worth it, as we got to see their way of life even just a bit. It makes our Kenya experience more memorable.
They also book wonderful camp/lodges/hotel for us.
I highly recommend booking a safari in Buy more adventures!

First African Safari
This was an experience of a lifetime from start to finish. As I set of on this journey to find a affordable but we'll worth it safari adventure for my family there were multiple choices to choose from. When I stumbled across buymore safaris it wasn't long before I realized that this would be the company for us. Nadzua my trip organizer was extremely helpful and efficient with all the necessary details of the trip. Even with the disparity in our times zones she was still punctual and maintained excellent communication. When we arrived at the Masai Mara our tour guide Kel was extremely knowledgeable about our surroundings during our tour and did a great job locating the big 5 allowing us to get great shots and memories that will last a lifetime. We had a few problems with our land cruiser but nothing serious enough that made me or my party feel discouraged. The Zebra plains staff was awesome and they accommodated us very well. To be honest the only reason why I didn't give this experience 5 stars is because going through customs at the start of the trip I ran into a situation that could have been serious. Luckily Charles our driver that picked us up that morning was there and assisted with the situation. To sum it up this was an amazing experience and I definitely recommend this company for anyone who's looking for a great safari experience.

Incredibly knowledgeable about the parks and animals
We had the most wonderful Safari with BuyMore.

Nadzua was wonderful at organizing everything including our travel from Nairobi to Amboselj and then flights to the Masai Mara and from there back to Nairobi and on to Zanzibar. Everything was flawless. The team was also great at pivoting when half our party got delayed 24 hours due to plane trouble from the United States.
What really made the trip special was our guide Charles. You can clearly tell he has 20 years of experience as a safari guide. I have been on multiple safaris in the past and there is a clear difference between guides who have been doing this a while and guides who are new. Charles knows exactly where to go and the number of times we were able to see animals with no other cars around for incredibly special experiences was bar none. This alone is why you should book with this company. Any future safaris that we do in this region will be with Charles. What a great adventure and we can't say enough great things.

We spent a dream vacation with BuyMore Adventures
The whole trip was amazing and well planned! We did the 6-Day Kenya Big Five safari. Nadzua replied to our questions really fast and everything went well from the beginning - we were a bit worried because our flight arrived in the middle of the night but it wasn't a problem - our driver Calvin came and picked us up and took us to the city to have breakfast. We didn't expect places to be open so early but he knew where to go. It was very nice for us because we came to Kenya to only do the safari tour. We had to switch drivers on our way back to the airport on our last day as our driver had to go and do another tour but it was all so well planned and our second driver was also super nice and shared a lot about life in Kenya with us.
Calvin knew all the best places for spotting animals (he also has such good eyes and can spot animals really far) and made sure we saw as many different of them as possible. And ofcourse we took our time observing the animals. Calvin took us really close to the animals and turned off the engine so we wouldn't bother them. For us it was just unbelievable to see all these animals in the wild and so so close to us.
It was amazing that on our last day when we went to the last game drive Calvin spotted lions from far-far away, we were not even in the national park yet. So we got to enjoy the sunrise with lions and Kilimanjaro in the background - something like that will probably only happen once in a lifetime for us.
The car was very clean as Calvin cleaned it every day. The roads were crazy and we were lucky that he's such a good driver!
Calvin helped us with all the questions and made stops as we requested and he always had clean drinking water for us as much as we needed.
Accommodations were really good and we didn't have any problems.
We enjoyed every second of the trip.

Absolutely first class expertise and service
We have just returned home from our first safari which we booked with Nadzua and Buymore. Our experience was first class from beginning to end and we cannot speak too highly about Nadzua and our driver, Charles.
We arranged this trip at short notice (just a few weeks) and Nadzua was totally professional throughout – she responded very quickly to all our questions and helped us select what turned out to be an amazing itinerary to Amboseli and Masai Mara at a competitive price. The original plan had to be modified slightly just before departure when the airstrip we were to land at in the Mara was put out of service because of water damage but Nadzua provided some options which were as good as or better than the original. The accommodations were excellent and we thought Nadzua went above and beyond providing us with airport pickup when we arrived and also taking us back to the airport after a few days in Nairobi.
We cannot imagine that there is a better driver/guide than Charles – he is very personable and we were in awe of his deep knowledge and understanding of the parks, wildlife and Kenya. Nothing was too much trouble for him and we are indebted to him as he helped make this trip so unforgettable for us.
We are not normally this effusive, but Nadzua and Charles deserve every accolade, and we will definitely book with them again as we try to plan for another trip.

Friendly, reliable and responsive.
The tour organiser was extremely responsive and accomodating, as she made her best to answer our numerous questions and offer a tour that would be the most suitable for our needs (travelling alone with my 5-year old child).
The driver-guide was friendly and reliable, although not very talkative (which I personally prefer to a guide who is too chatty). His English was good and he was rather knowledgeable about wildlife, regularly checking information in books to offer us the most accurate knowledge.
The accomodation was on the overall good value for money and the minibus was quite comfortable, it just didn't have a very sophisticated air conditioning system, which meant we had to keep windows open (and thus let the sand in etc..) if we didn't want to suffocate from the heat.
The tour was quite a budget for us, but it was worth the financial effort because the opportunity to see so many wild animals is such a unique treasure which we will probably still remember in many years to come.

Very Helpful and Knowledgeful
I have just come back from a Safari to Kenya (2 Days in Amboseli and 4 Days in Masai Mara). Buymore provide an excellent and reliable service, from the first contact with Nadzua always ensuring our needs were met and tailoring our trip to suit us as well as our guide Charles, ensuring we got to witness amazing wildlife viewings. Whenever we encountered minor issues, they were ready to assist! We finished our trip with an amazing meal with both Charles and Nadzua joining us, this was a really nice end to a dream getaway. Highly recommend and will be booking with them again in the future.

Everything perfect
We booked 3 days 2 nights with BuyMore Avdentures for Masai Mara.
The 4x4 was very clean and confortable, water available for the trip.
Charles, our driver was professional, he has many experience in safari, knows how to spot animals, give you explanations about masai mara, local culture etc...
I highly recommand BuyMore Adventures for the organization and Charles as a driver!
Thx for this experience, we appreciated a lot.
