Very good, as usual!
5/5

In September 2024 3 friends and myself booked a 3 weeks safari in Kenya with Reny Safaris. Since 2016 it was already my 8th time with that same local tour operator! And once again they proved to be very reliable and flexible! No breakdown (a car in good shape is very important on this kind of trip), no flat tires ... In the past we had different drivers, but since last year we are having Elisha Opollo as our driver and guide: someone I can recommend without a shadow of a doubt!
We spent 10 days in the Masai Mara, still the best game park to see lions, leopards and cheetahs! It is true that it can get crowdy with cars (and tourists) when something special is happening, but your chances to see the predator cats are very high in the Masai Mara! Unfortunately, the Narok County increased the entrance fees to the Masai Mara to an outrageous level: they are charging 200 USD/person per day from July till December; and 100 USD in the rest of the year!!! Of course, Reny Safaris cannot help about this: it was a political decision by local authorities.
We saw several kills in Masai Mara, and a lot of wildebeests that had crossed the Mara on their annual migration from Tanzania to Kenya.
The remaining 10 days were spent on game drives in Amboseli, Tsavo East and Tsavo West: these parks are very different from the Masai Mara; they are very dry, so fewer animals to be seen, but still interesting thanks to different species and a lot of different birds, especially in Amboseli! Not forgetting the beautiful landscapes, for instance the one you get when you're staying at the Voi Safari Lodge in Tsavo East!
After 3 weeks of intense safari, the 4 of us flew back to Belgium with a lot of good memories to cherish!

The wonderfull experience in the wildlife of Kenia
5/5

We are very satisfied about the company of Regina and her staff. We had a very warm welcome at the airport. They organized a very beautiful trip of 17 days through the national parks of Kenia. The trip was amazing and we saw a lot of game. We had a good driver (Patrick) he gave us a lot of information and he did everything so we could see the migration of the gnoes. Thanks to Reny safaris we had the time of our life, a great safari experience, nice memories and wonderful pictures...

Not the biggest but certainly one of the better safari agencies
5/5

Together with 3 Belgian friends I booked a 16 days safari with Reny Safaris. It revealed to be a very good choice: all bookings were well made; the manager regularly got in contact to find out if everything was okay; the car was very reliable (no breakdowns); and the driver was not only excellent as a driver, he also turned out to be a fantastic animal spotter!

It is amazing! A best tour that I’d never had.
5/5

I joined a five days Safari tour with four friends in June 2023.

The overall experience is fantastic!

On the first day, when we arrived at the Nairobi airport, three Reny guys picked us up. Reny guys and Kenyans treat us like their friends in this unfamiliar country, giving us an excellent first impression of this country.

During the five-day Safari tour, Elisha is the best tour guide, helping us to solve the travelling issue patiently. When we found the Big Five in the national park, Elisha professionally contacted other tour guides from different companies via radio to see the lions, cheetahs, elephants, etc. He tried his best to complete our requests for the Kenya Safari tour. In addition, we are four girls without males to attend the Reny Safari, and it is safe and comfortable to make friends with Elisha.

Again, Reny’s Safari is impressive!

Reny Safaris brought to life a trip we could only imagine.
5/5

We had a great experience working with Reny Safaris. Japheth was our contact person and was an excellent communicator. He was flexible with dates and helped to make sure we had everything we needed before we arrived in Kenya. He continued to check in throughout our 10-day tour to ensure we were having a great trip and even arranged a driver for an extra day we spent in Nairobi after the tour. Elisha was the perfect guide for us. He was friendly, dependable, and sought out experiences. He also allowed us to make the trip our own, not pushing a specific agenda. The trip would not have been so amazing without him there. We stayed at 4 different lodgings, each with ample comfort and delicious food. There was plenty of bottled water in the van to keep us hydrated while on the road and on safari. Over the 6 days of the safaris we saw the big 5 as well as a multitude of other animals, identified by name for us by Elisha. We saw some special areas like springs and lava rocks, too. We spent 3 days at Diani beach, a beautiful, relaxing way to cap the tour. The express train back to Nairobi was a fun experience. I highly recommend Reny Safaris and the 10-day tour. It was a great value for the support, no-stress planning and travel, and wonderful tour.

Trustworthy, well organised and tailored to perfection! Highly recommended Reny Safaris
5/5

We booked a 10 day safari experience with Reny, months in advance and totally did not know what to expect. Japeth was brilliant with his communication at every single step of the process. He created a personalised itinerary for us which included Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli, Tsavo East and three nights at Daini beach resort. David and Elisha, our guides were knowledge, kind, funny and did not hesitate to go the extra mile to provide the most fantastic experience during our entire holiday. We choose the open top safari vans instead of the jeep and each van was very comfortable for a family of four. There was plenty of bottled water always available. The guides ensured we saw all the big fives plus many many more animals and some predators, very up and close too. Their patience and experience helped us to not only spot animals but understand their stories too. We stayed in 5 different lodges and at the beach resort in the end. Each accommodation was unique with great ambience, food and facilities. Our children 14 and 12 years enjoyed the facilities at the lodges in the evenings. Japeth took extra care to ensure we get the best rooms with sea view in the beach resort which was a great extra touch. He arranged the scenic train travel for us from Mombassa to Nairobi on the way back which was a pleasant experience. Japeth, David, Elisha and Walter were available for our airport pick up and drop off. The masaai village visit, the zebras trying to cross the Mara river, picnic in the park on day two, lake view cottage at Naivasha, sunset at Tasvo East, view of Kilimanjaro from Amboseli park, the white sands of Daini beach and the Animal Stories which I still dream about. We cannot thank Reny Safaris enough for this unforgettable experience. Thank you!
