Reliable and caring partner for safari tours
We chose Kenya Bush expeditions for the rate level and adequate price for a private 2 days safari in Amboseli. all payments are supported by receipts. It was a van on time. And great driver and guide Durias, who became our friend within these 2 days. We could use our time and stops to buy drinks and fruits, visiting Masai village. In the park we made a lot of raids to the best animals watch places in savanna or around the lake with flamingos and hippos. All went great and filled us the impressions we could not expect.

The tour guy was nice but demanded extra pay.
I booked the tour through TripAdvisor, securing it for the listed price of $85 for the 6:30 tour. However, the organizer contacted me via WhatsApp on the evening of the tour, stating he would pick me up at 6:15. Upon arrival, he proceeded to pick up other participants from a different hotel before reaching the park gate. To my surprise, he then requested an additional $45, catching me off guard. Reluctantly, I agreed to pay in cash upon our return to my hotel, complying with the unexpected demand.
To further add to the frustration, we were left waiting for approximately 40 minutes at the park gate, with no communication about the delay. Eventually, the tour commenced. My concern lies in the discrepancy between the advertised price paid online and the unanticipated extra charge in person. This unexpected financial request and lack of transparency about delays were disappointing aspects of an otherwise anticipated experience.

Meeting the Maasai and safari in Amboseli
Our full day trip to meet the Maasai and experience Amboseli National Park was nothing short of amazing and an experience we will never forget.
Our guide was knowledgeable, professional and had a great sense of humor. The Safari was spectacular. We saw a huge number of animals including lions, hippos, giraffes, hyenas, zebras and elephants. Lunch was at a lodge in the park which was a great african inspired venue serving good food.
The visit to meet the Maasai was really good. Entertaining as much as educational about the way they lived, their culture and how they treated disease and sickness. An experience that won't be forgotten. The downside, and Im being picky here was at the end when we were pushed heavily to purchase items they pretend are made by the Massai in the village at extremely expensive prices, when they are nothing more than mass produced souvenirs found at every airport throughout Africa. Otherwise, and extremely good day from start to finish.

Perfect to tour Africa!
The prior communication is very good. John was perfect in answering our many questions . We really wanted to have an excellent safari experience. Our visit to Maasai Mara was excellent and had a great time. Easy company to deal with!

A safari living up to the greatest expectations!
From the start we had an excellent communication with Kenya Bush Expeditions. John answered immediately to all our questions and gave us good information. We booked a private safari to Amboseli, Tsavo East and Tsavo West. Our guide, Geoffrey, was very friendly and had an excellent eye to spot the animals. We stayed in the most amazing lodges, and we saw so many animals. We also went to Masai Mara (with another company), but we actually preferred this safari over the Mara. We can highly recommend Kenya Bush Expeditions, as it was a perfect Safari for a good price. Thank you guys!

Masai Mara trip (2 nights, 3 days)
I was picked up from my house in Nakuru and driven to meet the tour group in Naivasha. This was very convenient as I did not want to have to travel to Nairobi. Overall, the trip was very exciting and our driver made sure we saw as much as possible in the national park. However, I felt the driver could have been a bit more friendly. I do think that the experience really depends on your driver. Our tour group was a combination of people from all different safari companies which surprised me. Often we were not sure of the exact schedule. However, I did have a very enjoyable experience and highly recommend visiting the Mara.

Very reliable and trustworthy
We booked a 5day safari, tsavo east, west and amboseli. First of all: we loved this experience, also thanks to Peter, our Tourguide. The places we spent the night were fabulous, the landscapes magnificent and of course we loved to see all those animals. We felt very safe with Peter and would recommend this company anytime.

Good operator for first time experience!
We chose Kenya Bush Expeditions because the tours offered on SafariBookings fitted best to our holiday plans.
As we never did a Safari before we wanted to make sure to get a good all-in-one package.
This is exactly what we got!
From pick up in Nairobi to drop off at our desired place everything was organised.
We spent a lot of time in parks to discover landscape and animals.
Of course you need to be lucky to spot every animal you want to see (Big Five: check!), but our guide was a big plus in this. Even without seeing animals for a few hours we enjoyed the landscape a lot so no day felt wasted.
Communication with Kenya Bush Expeditions and our guide Peter was perfect. Days were planned good so it was a good mixture between relaxing and adventure.
For our taste there could have been a bit more flexibility regarding the daily schedule. Sometimes we had to leave the spot because of timing issues although we could have enjoyed the situation/scenery for a bit longer.
Overall we recommend Kenya Bush Expeditions to anyone who wants to experience their first safari.
Thanks to Peter who was patient, put a lot of effort in spotting animals and for driving us safely throughout the whole tour!

Nice Safari from Mombasa to Nairobi
We did a very cool Safari from Mombasa to Nairobi. We visited 3 different Nationalparks. Everyone was different. Because of our Guide Goffrey we got. To See the Big 5. He did everything he could to find the Lions for us. In the End we Even saw 8 of them. The Lodges were very nice. In the Evening even the Wildlife visited. It was an wonderful experience.
