Excellent company...genuine personal attention in all aspects of the holiday. Strongly recommended.
5/5

Wildlife Sun Safaris are an excellent company to use for travelling in Africa.
From the beginning the responses to my communication was prompt, clear efficient and travel requests extremely well priced.
The boss of the company, James , was always there to assist & nothing was too much trouble.
I took a lot of items for orphanages there and James was fantastic in looking after these cases whilst I went off on Safari. He actually transported them from Nairobi to Mombasa where they went to the Shanzu Good Hope Orphanage. If you go do take whatever you can with you and donate to them...they are so poor and don't know where the money is coming from for their next meal. James will take you there or direct you yo another Orpganage in Nairobi. His company is the best ...we had an excellent driver who kept us informed about all aspects and spoke very clear good English.
You can either let James propose your itinerary or he will execute your own intinersry at very fair prices. He is genuine and you do not have to worry .i was surprised that during the course of three weeks we never saw or even heard a mosquito.,,having gone prepared, the Jungle Spray it never came out once even on Safaris.
Once you find this company there is no need to look any further as you will have found the best & I know you will be very happy st the end.
Our driver, Toya was an excellent safe & cautious & even took us to the airport too at the end and we were very sad to leave this great country having found a good company to look after us, seen an amazing selection of animals & animal activities in the wild & can't wait to go back! A big thank you to James and his team for a wonderful holiday,
Contact James..,you do not have to look any further!!

Excellent and unique experience
5/5

We had a great and unique time with Wildlife Sun Safaris. Our guide - Ben - was very knowledgeable, understanding and respectful. He could find and point out animals from a very close distance, what made the trip even more exciting. The hotels, we stayed in were amazing. Moreover this was not only experience of wild life, this was a full experience of Africa. We fully recommend this.

Superb service, amazing Kenya
5/5

We are a family with a child of 11 and travelled in Kenya with Wildlife Sun Safaris for 14 days at the end of June. Although it is a low season, the weather was sunny without rains, very pleasant. The tour was very busy. Nairobi - Masai Mara - Naivasha - Nakuru - Bogoria - Nairobi - Amboseli - Tsavo West - Tsavo East - Diani Beach - Nairobi. We made our tour plan by ourselves based on the example tours at their website. James was prompt to reply to all our emails and the price for the tour was quite reasonable. He personally met us at the airport, in the middle of our trip, and before departure. He organized the tour very well. Our personal driver – Toya - was always polite, precise, and executed the itinerary with no faults. We had a 4x4 Toyota minivan. It is OK on good road and off-road. However, there are some roads under construction. Especially, if you go to Masai Mara you have to drive about 1.5 hour on washboard road. Here we wished we had a heavy Landcruiser. It is more comfortable, but more expensive too. This was our choice. We had an excellent journey and Kenya is really amazing. Don't hesitate to take children with you. It is a safe and comfortable country for the tourists. I was surprised to see no insects. Leisure at Diani beach was the right thing after 10-days safari. Get ready to meet many local people that sell things at beach. Swimming in the ocean is a challenge. We had everything we wanted in this tour. And it was gracefully done by Wildlife Sun Safaris. Many thanks to James and Toya.

Excellent company!
5/5

Excellent round trip through Kenia with Wildlife Sun Safaris!

After searching for a while on Safaribookings.com, we have chosen for Wildlife Sun Safaris because of value for money, positive reviews and properly contact with James.

When we arrived at the airport of Nairobi, James was properly waiting there to welcome us. Explained everything very well about how our round trip will proceed and the possibilities for any other excursion. We started our round trip the following day (Nairobi – Masai Mara – Tsavo East – Diani Beach). James was there on time again and we met our driver for the first time for our roundtrip: Thoya which I highly recommend!!

Thoya did his best to show us beautiful animals as much as possible and knows all the roads very well. His English is very good and he can tell you a lot of information about the animals/nature/country if you like. He was very nice to have with us and did not mind doing anything or insist to do something.
Every day he explained what we could expect that day about driving distances (including sanitary stops, etc.), arrival times and how long the game drive will take for example.  Thoya was always on time and we got a clean car again every morning!

We had a car with pop-up roof for 8 persons, which was only used by 2 persons. This made it very comfortable during long (sometimes very bumpy) rides.  In our car there was no air conditioning which wasn’t an issue for us. I know Wildlife Sun has more cars in their possession so maybe you can ask about the possibilities before.

Bottom line: I can highly recommend to book with Wildlife Sun Safaris who gave us an unforgettable holiday!
Have had great contact with James before our holiday and gave very quick responses. Either a properly confirmation of the paid deposit and remaining amount.
Kenya is a very beautiful country for an outstanding wildlife experience! Especially Masai Mara is a must to visit.

Thanks again to Thoya, James and Wildlife Sun Safaris for our amazing holiday!

A 7-day safari tour at Kenya
5/5

Our family of 4 recently took a 7-day safari tour at Kenya. We booked the tour through wildlife sun safaris. James was very hopeful through the entire process. He is very professional and always answers our questions in a timely way. The driver, Jackson, is a very nice guy. He is very experienced and is good at spotting animals such as lions and cheetahs (while elephants are easier to spot of course). Overall this has been a great experience for us and we strongly recommend wildlife sun safaris.

Excellent safari
5/5

It was 6 nights safari, we visited Samburu, Aberdare, Amboseli, Tsavo West. James
has offered us the best price for this week. We started from Nairobi and finished in Diani beach. Everything was perfect! We saw almost all animals, even leopard 2 times - in Samburu and Tsavo West. Was no any problem, all that James promiced and wrote in contract - have been done. Our driver Jackson was very good guide, After rest on Diani beach we had short 1 day safari in Nairobi National Park, here we met white and black rhino. i recommend travel in Kenya with them, they are honest people and do the best that everything was pleasant to you.

3 day Taita Hills and Salt Lick
5/5

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Wildlife Sun Safaris. I made a request through the Kenya Association of Tour Operators website and James responded promptly. We agreed the itinerary by email. On arrival in Kenya, everything was well organised and delivered exactly as promised. The driver/guide was experienced and knowledgeable, and he took care of all the details.

Great safari in Maasai Mara!
5/5

We (a couple in our late 20's/early 30's) booked a 3 day/2 night safari in Maasai Mara with Wildlife Sun in August 2016. We had a great experience and highly recommend the company. The whole process of selecting a safari operator is stressful, but we found James to be very straightforward and professional when we communicated with him. Based on that and some good reviews online, we decided to go with Wildlife Sun and were very happy with our choice. (Note the company is based out of Mombasa, but they also operate in Nairobi.)

We were staying at an Airbnb in Nairobi, rather than one of the standard hotels downtown, but there was no problem picking us up. James offered us two quotes: one was a standard budget option, and the other was a bit more expensive. We chose the slightly more expensive option -- we stayed at a small, charming camp in Maasai Mara called Fisi Camp and had the safari vehicle to ourselves. Fisi Camp was a wonderful place: we were lucky that the manager of the camp decided to accompany us on our safari, so together with our driver from Wildlife Sun, we had 2 pairs of expert eyes to help us find animals. We were also lucky to see some rare sights like lions feeding, and a cheetah with young cubs. Throughout the trip our driver was very friendly, and very knowledgeable about wildlife in Kenya.
