My 4 days at Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru were pretty awesome, i can't wait for my next R&R next year
I really enjoyed more than my expectations the best bargain ever for my vacation. I will recommend anyone willing to take a vacation to Kenya to go for Crossriver Safaris. One more thing, the driver was a good guide and the most important he knows all the types of animals so you can imagine how it was.

Very professional
First i must thank Crossriver Safaris for helping me and my friends have the experience of a lifetime. The safari tours and accomodation choices were better than we thought on our two days at Masai mara that we saw the big five in one day. Our driver David was an excellent driver and guide.
This agency is very professional, if i need to book a safari in future i will surely contact them.
Decent return for the price
Communicating with the operator was fairly easy while planning the tour. Overall quality and promptness of service from the operator was good. The actual tour corresponded with the plan. National parks were interesting places and absolutely worth seeing. Distances between parks, especially in Kenya, were long so that meant long hours of traveling. The quality of cars used in safari left quite a lot to desire, especially in Tanzania. For the most part the accommodation was satisfactory for a budget tour. Although in some places (Amboseli, Arusha) cleanliness of accommodation and service attitude of the staff were substandard.
Drivers/guides and chefs were top blokes and definitely worth a praise.

Best safari guy.
I lived in Kenya for 2 years and repeatedly used Crossricer Safaris. They are the most responsive and solutions-oriented!

Incredible experience in Masai Mara
This was actually my second time in Kenya with as safari organised by Crossriver Safaris. This time, we had an absolutely stunning week with Bonface in Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. He is one of the best drivers to find for these national parks since he really wants his group to have the best possible experience. His knowledge about spotting the animals is outstanding. Our whole trip went very smooth without any problems, which can definitely not be take for granted in this country. I highly recommend Crossriver Safaris as your safari organiser due to their deep know-how concerning the planning and realisation of your safari. When I come back to Kenya, which I definitely will, Crossriver Safaris (Erik and Bonface) will be my first choice.

Fantastic experience
Eric, the organiser, was brilliant and very professional from the very first email. We had a great driver (Anthony) who went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed every minute of the safari drives. Thanks to him we were able to see 4 of the "big 5" animals.
Accommodation, food and transport were all superb. Definitely value for money.
I have since recommended this company to 3 other groups.
Thanks again

I went for 3 days Safari , it was just amasing, we saw all five big animals of jungle
Everything was well organised, Guide was very professional and experienced. Explained and showed us animals. I am very satisfied from the tour. I advise everyone to choose Crossriver safari.
Excellent 6 Days Safari-Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli
We booked our trip with wonderful Crossriver Safaris which was organized by Mr Erick. As this was our first visit to Africa I had a lot of questions about the trip and Erick and his team patiently provided me with all the answers. We had a wonderful safari experience with the Crossriver Team. We experienced a lot more than we had imagined. In Masai Mara we saw Lions cheetahs, zebras, giraffes, water buffalos, wildebeests, hippo at Mara river and even a leopard chilling in a tree. The rest of the park they were very nice and we can’t forget lovely adventure for our trip.
Everything that was promised was delivered!! I highly recommend this company and will definitely revisit and book our next trip with them soon.

Very unprofessional... Horrible - a scam
I was suppose to go on a safari to tsavo East and West parks. Everything was arranged and the previous day some "clients" never arrived. I don't know if these clients ever existed but Eric the "manager" put me on another trip to masai Mara. I was supposed to leave the hotel at 9 am to go to Nairobi on the next day but Eric never shows up nor returned my calls. He took my 60$ as well as my 200$ deposit. I hope you never go on a safari with this guy (in any case, let me know if you see any animal...) basically a scam!!

Wonderful Safari Kenya will never forget Tsavo East and West
We had a great time with Crossriver Safaris. The trip was really nice with a professional driver guide who knows the parks very well.
Though Erick we are really sorry for Florent review there,we feel sorry for Him,it’s our flight delay which we couldn’t manage to join your client on 18th,morning. We are very sorry and same we really thank you for the necessary action and understand our situation. Erick changed our trip, accommodation too to start on 19th,November morning from Diani for 5 of us.
Our safari van was really comfortable, and 5 of us we had a big space to stand during game drive. Tsavo East saw a lot of red Elephants,Lions, Cheetahs and more I can’t mention all.Tsavo West attractions were really amazing especially Mzima spring where we took a walk with rangers. At night in Ngulia safari lodge we managed to see Leopard at night,this was owe some.
Our driver guide Aaron we thank you to make our dreams come true,and soon will do masai mara with you as we discussed, can’t wait to meet you again. Erick and your team we that you for the wonderful safari, the vehicle was supper nice, lodges were amazing, everything was well organized professional.
We recommend Crossriver as the best company to do safari with and promise you will get what necessary. They are the best, we experienced it.
