We had three different guides, all were great.
5/5

The safari was amazing. We saw so much, every animal you could see we saw. The accommodation and food were absolutely fantastic.

In terms of communication, it was quite poor. Day to day on the tour we didn’t have clear instructions of how many hours we would be driving in between destinations and we had one day with no communication in between switching drivers based on how many days our safari was. We were confused and we were dropped off at our hotel around noon with nothing around and nothing to do. The biggest thing I would say is take money out before your tour. Because it’s cash only and the atms in Kenya only dispense 40,000 ksh at a time. It was very frustrating on the morning of the safari with other people on the tour waiting for us to take money out. Also take out extra money for souvenirs and if you want any coffees, water, or alcohol in any accommodation it is extra, and some places only take cash.


The experience other than that was really amazing. A once in a lifetime experience.

5/5

I chose the 6 day tour including Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli. The trip was amazing, we saw all the animals and the beautiful landscape. I was also pleasently surprised by the quality of the accomodation even though I had chosen the budget option. The staff was also very available and friendly. I strongly recommend!

5/5

We did the 10 day safari in Kenya and Tanzania. Masai Mara, Lake Nukuru, Amboseli, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. After the first afternoon game drive in which we saw a pride of lions, elephants, Cape buffalo, Giraffes, Zebras etc I said it can't get any better! Boy was I wrong - everyday was better than the last. We saw a black Rhino and baby and 20 minutes later saw the very rare White Rhino. Our Guides/Drivers were all wonderful - Felix, James, Gudson and Dickson (also a fantastic cook!) Kennedi was so helpful in preparing for our trip as well as any issues that came up along the way. Our traveling companions were great. Words can't really describe how much this trip exceeded our expectations and we will recommend Bienvenido to everyone we know.

Super!
5/5

Great communication, safari (special thanks to our guides Joseph and Daniel), value for money and attention to client! Kennedy has been super: we forgot our binoculars in a lodge and he quickly organized everything to bring them back to us for free, even if the tour was already finished. 🔝

I had a great time
5/5

I booked the 8 days trip, everything went well.
The drivers were good and nice. Especially Okindo Joseph that was my driver for most of my trip but also Joseph.
I liked the variety of species we had the chance to see. The accommodations were good for the price. It would have been nice to know that there was no WiFi in Masai Mara accommodation so I could have told my mom not to worry. We are together with other groups and I was with new people almost every day which was fun, meeting new people.
All companies are doing the same tour so it doesn’t matter too much with whom you book but Bienvenido was good so go for it.

The safari surpassed our expectations!
5/5

We were a bit skeptical about booking the trip with a local operator online from Europe, but it turned out to be an amazing experience!

We did a 3-day private safari tour to Masai Mara and stayed at Jumbo Mara Lodge. Everything was perfect- our guide picked us up from our accommodation, and the drive to Masai Mara was an adventure itself. We passed through Nakuru, the biggest city in the region, took in the stunning views of the Rift Valley, and got a glimpse of the local Masai people going about their daily lives.

Our guide, Daniel, knew Masai Mara like the back of his hand. He is so amazing that on the first two-hour game drive, we already saw three out of the Big Five and so many other animals in their natural habitat. He made sure we had the best time, helped us take great photos, and really made the whole experience unforgettable.

The lodge was beautiful a more like a 5-star hotel - with a fantastic pool and delicious food. They had great Indian and Kenyan dishes, as well as fresh fruit and other options.

Overall, an incredible experience at a great price. Would absolutely recommend!
