Fantastic experience with the team
A six day tour with African Habitat is one of those fateful events one would wish to experience on a daily basis, with Obama as the tour guide our trip was one in a million with a lot to learn, book yourself a trip with African Habitat Rachel's team and you'll never regret the experience.

Adventurous
You almost feel intrigued or amazed or somewhere without the planet when you get to see this traffic of wildlife in the Masai Mara and Amboseli park band the pink carpeted floor of the lake Nakuru flooded with flamingoes and all other aves. It even gets better in the company of tour guides Johannas from African Habitat Safaris and the tour operator Rachel who keeps the entire vacation in order. Its an encounter we'd love to go through again and again.

There is no any other place for touring other than visiting African Habitat Safaris.kudos.
Life has never been the same,not especially after tour into these East African destination over a week spent out of the country. Our expectation arriving in Nairobi Kenya were not as great as the trips to Masaai Mara and AmboseliParis turned out to be. In my opinion we were attached to the most suitable tour guide to share with us his comprehensive know of the terrain and nature of the wildlife.A remarkable two days in the Amboseli and another three days In the Mara were memorable with there sensational games drives and interaction with the native communities made the week an extraordinary one.

Wonderful Safari Experience
We went on a 4 day safari in Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. We had wonderful time. We found African Habitat Safaris from www.safaribookings.com and connected via email. Rachel was very helpful and reliable since the beginning. We could see the five big and witness amazing scenes in Masai Mara. Our guide and driver (Johannas) was great. He was always at the right place at the right time. We highly recommend African Habitat Safaris.
Fun, academic and fulfilling experience.
Its been stereotypic that destinations in our country are meant to attract foreigners from outside to explore. But a challenge to tour our local parks was well received by my colleagues and I to Visit Mara National Park. Being a group of uni students out to appreciate Kenya's local destinations, we found the two day tour to Masai Mara fulfilling, educative and patriotic. This was also facilitated by the best efforts of tour guides and tour operators form African Habitat Safaris, who made us even appreciate the excursion more; motivation enough to undertake more tours into our country's destinations and even across the East African region, of course with the help of African Habitat

An experience worth dying for!
The African safari experience.
Much appreciation to African Habitat Safaris Safari tours and their team of experts for a memorable African tour.
We booked a two weeks safari based on reviews about the firm and an incredible Kenya tour operator Rachel was waiting on the other end. She, being the sole owner of the company facilitated the experience form the point of booking to the end of the tour. The safari was conducted in a van fit for my family. Our tour guide, Obama conducted the trip professionally depicting knowledge of the terrain, the wildlife and the culture revolving between Kenya and Tanzania country generally. The destinations across the two countries in Mara and Serengeti. That was a remarkable ten day experience out of Europe

Obama and his beast are like Formel 1 Schumacher
My husband and me booked a 6-Days-Safari (Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara) in a small group (4-6 people) with this tour operator. No other clients booked the 6-Days-Tour, but the tour took place anyway. Deal is deal! Therefore we were alone with our Guide Obama in Amboseli. The unintentional privat tour in Amboseli was a great experience! We saw lots of elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, hippos and some others. It was amazing to see all kind of animals together on one place. Many wind roses and Mount Kilimandscharo were very impressive in the background. We booked the budget variant. That was the right decision! We slept in tented camps in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by nature with all kinds of animals. Beautiful!!!
On the way to Lake Nakuru we picked up another client. It was a long trip from Amboseli to Lake Nakuru Nationalpark. We were in hurry cause of traffic on the way. We had no more time to check-in before afternoon game drive, so we were heading straight to the gate of the Nationalpark. Despite the long drive, Obama was still motivated and ambitious to show us as much „attractions“ as possible! The first one was a rhino with his baby. It’s very rare, so we were lucky that we have seen it. The second „attraction“ was a whole lion family who walked next to us along the street. Impressive and respectful! Even Obama cranked the window, because the lion was so near! Despite the long exhausting day, we have been able to see some great animals!
On the way to Masai Mara we picked up a family of six. (Obama reckoned with three people!) All in all we were 9 client. To much for the van! Also, it did’t match our booked tour (4-6 people). The single guy had to chance cars. He continued the tour with people who had also booked the more expensive tour (more comfortable accommodation). We were still more than 6 clients, but Obama couldn’t do anything so far in the middle of nowhere without a second car. All of us had a seat, that was the main thing so far. All the luggage didn’t fit into the trunk and had to be stowed in the sitting room. There was only little space to sit, but it was okay. On arrival in Masai Mara we could leave our luggage in the camp, so we had more space in the car. Despite the circumstances (more than 6 people) we had no disadvantages in game drives. Obama tried to make the best out of it for us! All of us could stand up (pop up roof top) to see more! All of us had enough time to take pictures… We all got along well. In Masai Mara we saw some new animals; For example cheetahs and leopards. In the end we’ve seen all of the BIG FIVE (Lion, Rhino, Elephant, Leopard, Buffalo). Amazing experience!! On the last game drive, we were late to get to the gate (gate closing), but still we turned around and drove away from the gate. Obama got a call, so a new attraction had to be there; Cause of the efford of Obama, we could see a Lion Hunting. That was an impressive last sighting!
We are glad we stayed 6 days in different Nationalparks, cause we could observe how the landscape changes from NP to NP. We didn’t think about it before! In addition, the chance to see more different animals, especially the BIG FIVE is a lot higher!
Obama is a really careful, sociable and fun-loving Guide, trying to make it fair and comfortable for every single client. He was very knowledgeable about flora and fauna, the animal behaviour and the Maasai People. Obama said at the beginning: „Ask me anything and I’ll give you an answere.“ He kept right!!!
Obama without a phone is not Obama! He was always on phone or radio to organize the further course or to keep contact with other Guids in the park to exchange interesting animal sightings. That made our trip really unique!
Summarized, We can definitely recommend this tour operator. Rachel from the office
was always accessible and open to questions before the tour started.
During the tour, she made sure that everything was ok. Special Thanks to our Guide Obama, who made the trip really unique...! We can highly recommand him as a Guide!

Wonderful experience made possible by great people.
The experience not only lived up to my expectations but exceeded it. The price range was at par with the services provided and the few hiccups were quickly ironed out rather efficiently. I since recommended it to a few friends who had nothing but praise for the communication and accomodations that they were given. I will for sure utilize their services again.
