Fantastic trip with Rachel team
My friends and I enjoyed our trip across East Africa, it was memorable, trips to destinations in Kenya and Tanzania we're worth the experience. In a group of five we toured Kenya's Masai Mara and Tanzania's Serengeti and Ngoro Ngoro crater facilitated by tour guides from African Habitat Safaris everything went as planned . It was good to interact with the natives and experience cultural diversity on this part of the world. We must say the game drives besides site seeing made this vacation a unique experience. It was worth the time, and you get value for your money African Habitat is the best...

Fantastic Experience
We have just arrived back from a fantastic safari with African Habitat. From the start of the booking process till the end of the trip - they were great. They kept in touch with us, allowed u to plan our own route, were very flexible to let us decide what we wanted to do and extremely knowledgeable during the game drives. They went out of their way to ensure that we had a great time. I cant thank they enough for the experience we had.

Dream trip
If you want to find yourself amazing new friends in Kenya, not just a business selling a service, this is the tour agency you need to contact.
And I mean it! My 10 days solo trip to Kenya became a trip of a lifetime, mostly thanks to African Habitat Safaris. From airport pick-ups and drop offs to everything else during my 6 days safari (Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, Amboseli), all was amazing, comfortable and safe.
Rachel is the super hero, the one that had to deal with all my 30 emails during 2 weeks and she handle it brilliantly, with patience, understanding and commitment to help me organize a dream trip, keeping in mind also the budget. And so we did! The transport with the van was comfortable enough, the accommodations in the camps: I couldn’t ask for more in the middle of the savanna, the food very good, and the game drives just WOW! We spotted all the big five and enjoyed a wildlife paradise. I was also lucky to be in a wonderful group, we all started in Nairobi and very soon we became friends. And I can’t forget our amazing driver and guide, Richard. I did read about him before, from other reviews praising his qualities. He is indeed very experienced when it comes to wildlife and game drives in the parks, he knows everybody, gets the best info and we used to joke that he is so famous around that even the lions know him well. Thank you Richard for all the adventures, for taking us off the crowded tracks, close to the elephants and the giraffes, for all those moments that made us richer! And for the night safari, haha.

Private safari in Masai Mara and Amboseli
Except for a minor misunderstanding around the pick up in the Airport...wich was taken care of and solved quickly...everything went perfect. We had ordered a 5 day private safari in Masai Mara and Amboseli and through the whole planing there was a close and good contact and communication with Rachel and Simon in Nairobi.
Our driver and guide Simon picked us up at our hotel and was with us all five days giving us and incredible experience. Being very much down to earth, uncomplicated and flexible Simon did his outmost to fullfill our wishes and he did tell us about not only the wildlife in the nationalparks but also alot about everyday life in Kenya. So thank you Simon for choosing the most bumpy roads in Kenya :0)...Thank you Simon for getting us out of bed way to early in the morning :0)...and thank you Simon for sharing our car with 5000 flies from the buffalos :0)
We had an unforgettable experience on the Kenian grassplains watching zebras, wildbeast, giraffs, gazelles, elephant herds, a feeding cheeta, lions, crocodils and hippos in the Mara River. Did see Mara waking up from above in the hot air balloon and in Amboseli going to sleep with the view to Kilimanjaro and the sound of the hyenas in the distance.
Got memories for life of Kenya and for sure hope to visit again some day.

Very well organised and the best guide
We visited Masai Mara Reserve and Nakuru National Park in July this year, so apologies for the late review. As other have said, there are two parts to the safari: the organising and the guide who takes you on the safari. We had Rachel from African Habitat Safari Holidays, who organised everything for us and Obama was our guide for the 5 day/4 night safari.
Rachel is a professional. She knows what she is doing and is very good at putting together an itinerary based on your needs. We wanted to spend as much time as possible at Masai Mara, so we had two whole days in the park plus an afternoon game drive. Rachel did a complete itinerary for us which explained everything in great detail – right from airport pick up to drop off at the airport. The day to day itinerary also showed us what to expect on those days. She kept in touch throughout the whole process and answered our emails very promptly. You cannot go wrong with Rachel.
Obama, our travel guide is much more than a guide. You would expect most guides to just learn on the job but it was immediately obviously that Obama has gone beyond that. It was only later that we found out that he had studied much more than what was required for this job and that he was still studying to go to the highest level possible. His knowledge on the Kenyan flora and fauna is phenomenal. While we all wanted see the big cats (which we saw plenty of), we were also interested in the unique trees and different types of antelopes. Obama knew it all.
Obama is also has a very calm and friendly personality which shows in his driving skills and how he treats the environment around him. He is a very safe driver and is very considerate of the park requirements. He is very patient and relaxed which makes our experience so much better.
If we ever go on another safari, my family have already asked me to have it arranged by Rachel and insist on Obama as our guide!
