The safari surpassed our expectations!
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!
