Lifetime Safari to Maasai Mara
1. Communication by Maggie is excellent ,she knows the product really well and gave us all necessary details
2. Service was exceptional at the camps - Lenchada budget camp had great service -Thank you for the recommendation as we thought we would sleep in sleeping bags only to find is proper beds with hot shower and toilet
3. Bison Safaris gives value for money.Many tour companies which we enquired quote from were more expensive and also no hidden costs with Bison Safaris
Overall we highly recommend the company to any traveller to Kenya .
We will be back for the August migration .

cheerful and ideal to first-timers.
On the scale that you suggest, I'd rate our experience at 10pts. In terms of services provided.
That was also our family trip and our guide made it very special and memorable for us. The guide was extremely polite and flexible with our timing. The camps that were offered to us also contributed to our best possible experience. They were clean, welcoming, and supplied with great food.

Great Service from Bison Safaris Team
Outstanding and over the board service from Bison Safaris .They helped us in a big way when we lost our luggage -they followed up with the airline and organized once the luggage was in Kenya to be brought to Masai Mara for us . What was promised is what we got - we stayed at Mara Sarova in the club tents ,amazing tents , great game viewing and food was as well really good .
We recommend Bison Safaris and a big thank you to Maggie for helping us out with the luggage issue .We appreciated every effort you put in to make us comfortable all through and the follow up you did to check if all was ok.

Great price, logistics, and customer support
After emailing several companies on SafariBookings, Bison Safaris (Maggie in particular) stood out for being the only group to actually provide a response proving she read my email in its entirety. I was traveling alone and had different date options. Only Maggie provided a quote based on my specific situation. And her price was great!
The safari was fantastic and we saw everything expected. Although I'm sure many of the companies use the same routes and hotels, I did speak with other tourists I encountered who used different companies. It seems that although we were in the same hotels and using the same transportation, Bison Safaris was cheapest. And, most importantly, Maggie was constantly checking in and helping me prepare. None of the other people I spoke to had such dedicated support from the company. I highly recommend Maggie and Bison Safaris.

Masai Mara
My partner and I took a three day safari to Masai Mara and couldn't be happier with the experience. The trip is really well organized, we were really lucky that other travellers in our small group were really nice and respectful, and so were the team of drivers and assistants who shared music and stories with us. We got to see zebras, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, lions, wildebeests, gazelles, elands, antelopes, buffalos, hippos, crocodiles, hyenas, jackals, topis, ostriches and some other amazing birds. The accommodation was nice and comfortable, the food was good (vegan friendly), and the whole trip was worth it. We also got to visit a Masai village and interact with locals and learn about their costumes. Highly recommended.
Excellent clear service
Thanks to Bison Safari, I was able to go to Mt Kenya and see the beautiful nature whilst enjoying challenging hikes and delicious food. Really from A-Z; everything was arranged. Maggie responded quickly to all my questions and I would definitely recommend this to everyone here.

My lifetime experience thanks to Bison Safaris
The communication between myself and Bison Safaris was very smooth via Whatsapp. Maggie was very kind and she answered all my various questions about the tour. She was indeed very helpful.
The safari tour itself was just amazing. The guide gave thorough explanation about the animals, answered our questions in details and was keen to show us around to various spots with diverse types of animals. It was just slightly disappointing that we were kind of rushed on the 2nd day in the evening that we couldn't fully enjoy the view of the hippos and crocodiles and the Serengeti NR on the opposite side at the Mara River. But other than that I really enjoyed the safari tour.
About the service, the accomadation was better than expected and the food presented over the 3 days was all so good. But, it was a pity that they didn't provide us with enough water. Apparently one person is acquired with only one small bottle of water per day, which is impossible to depend on for a whole day! With a bit of a discussion our team managed to recieve more bottles of water every day but the primary rule was just unbelievable.
Over all, I very much enjoyed the 3day safari tour by Bison Safaris.
