Exactly what we were looking for. Better than hoped for.
Because of this pandemic we had to change the dates of this safari several times. This was never a problem for the organisation. All communication about tour, changes, payments, lodges happened via email and WhatsApps. Very easy and fast communication. Excellent guide: helpfull in any way, punctual, discrete, hygienic about his car and himself. We went to Tsavo East and West, past trough Lumo conservancy and visited Amboseli. Saw many, many animals and very few other tourists. Lodges were very well placed with spacious tents and bathrooms. This was not our first safari, but definitively one not to forget about. The sundowner offered by the company with mount Kilimanjaro in the back was a highly appreciated surprise. Another plus is the way Fika safaris organised the PCR testing at the end: mini bus with nurse came to the restaurant where we were invited to a lunch! We enjoyed this trip very very much.

Fantastic, well organized trip
We truly enjoyed our trip to the Masai Mara, organised by Fika Safaris. The communication was always promptly and detailed. Our wishes were carefully listened to and catered for. The car was extremely comfortable, knowledgeable and pleasant driver and a thoughtful welcome post card. The camp selected was fabulous. Great location and fantastic food. We managed to see a river crossing and lots of other wild life. Overall an unforgettable trip, thank you Fika Safaris!

Well experienced for the disabled traveller.
I actually went to both Tanzania and Kenya. Drivers in both countries are very friendly and well-trained for the person in a wheelchair. Though I am traveling alone in a wheelchair, I was able to enjoy safari tours in both country in relatively short time period. Mr. Robert is the owner of this company. Even before taking off, he communicated with me very well with quick response. He listened what I really wanted and made it feasible!
I am very happy with his tour and arrangement. If I ever come back to Tanzania or Kenya, I will choose this company again for my tour provider!

Excellent!
Exceeded our expectations.
Our first morning we had an unexpected meeting with Robert and Ester. It was really nice to meet them in person and to know who to contact if we had questions. A good start of our week in Kenia. We travelled with David and had a great time with him. An excellent guide and a true host.

Wonderful safari in Kenya for wheelchair person
The communication with Fika Safaris was easy and fast, both by mail and by phone.
Robert was always available to solve our doubts and suggest solutions to our special needs.
The services provided were the expected. We were received in the airport by our safari guide. A fast meeting with Ester and Robert to review with us all the details of the safari, and as they commented, this was our safari and any problem, complain or requirement, they are available to solve it. We didn't need it, because all was as was planed.
We visited Tsavo West, Amboseli, Lake Naivasha and Masai Mara. The accommodations were perfect. Completely adapted for people with high disability. All of them wonderful, with a very friendly and profesional staff.
It depends on each case, but we would suggest always the 4x4 to enjoy it at 100%. It is only for people who don't need travel in their wheelchairs and can be transferred to the car seat, because the adaptation is just 2 ramps to mount the wheelchair in the car, but the door is too small to mount the person in the wheelchair.
Macharia, our safari guide managed all perfectly. He explained us all the details of each place that we visited, the animals and plants that we found, and solved the few troubles that we found, as for example, the lunch in Naivasah's hotel where we arrived with a big delay by a traffic issue crossing Nairobi.
By his long experience, he knows the best places to find the animals, and the places to take the most beautiful photos.
In summary, a fantastic vacations that met all our expectations. We recommend Fika Safaris to all the people who want visit Kenya. We hope repeat soon and visit also Tanzania with them.

Kenya: on the road among the majesty of nature and the hospitallity of people
The tour have been well organized: It included main attractions like the Masai Mara Reserve, and also visits in local areas away from tourist routes more known. We appreciate a lot the accomodations when we have been, always pretty tends or "banda", located in the middle of the wild nature, where awazing landescapes were always within eyeshot. We felt free to stop the trip wherever something or someone got our attention, this allowed us to stay in contact with local people, to talk with them and to understand a lot about Kenya. Our guide was very prepared, He explained us a lot about the places we visited, He is an expert on animal wildlife (expecially in birds species). He loves his job, and We felt it in the manner how He described us any details always with a smile. He became our friends, and we have to thank him for how much we learn about Kenya and for the good time we spent togheter. Our journey went beyond all expectations.

Dream come true: beautiful and well-organised safari!
We did a one week safari in Kenya, where we visited Masai Mara and Naivasha. Everything was perfectly organised! Ester and Robert were super helpul in their communication, and making sure that we got our dream safari for the budget we had!
We were picked up by our super friendly guide David who accompanied us the first 3,5 day. He showed us everything of the Mara that we wanted to see and was very much open for discussion so we could really plan the safari in the way that we wanted to. He made sure we saw all the animals we wanted to see (all of the big 5!!), stopped wherever and whenever we wanted to to spot animals, and made sure that we really got the most of our time at the Mara. After a beautiful safari he drove us to Naivasha where we had some time for ourselves. With the help and tips of Ester and Robert we were able to figure everything out there on our own, and plan visits to mt Longonot, Hells gate and Crescent island. Transport backto Nairobi was then also provided, sowe got back easily!
The accomodations we had were also perfectly organized. The locations were great, right at the edge of the Mara and at lake Naivasha. They were beautiful camps, with all amentities one could need and a perfect place to enjoy a beer after a long safari. Water and good meals were provided for the safari, and Ester and Robert were super helpful in planning the trip and making sure we were also happy during the safari!
This trip has been a dream trip of mine, and the perfect organisation of Fika safari's even exceeded all my expectations of the trip!

Fika went the extra mile to ensure our honeymoon trip was the trip of a life time
The communication was transparent and we co-design the trip. However, they manage to excede our expectations by taking care of every detail and ensuring quality service from all hotels and other providers. The cherry on the top was our guide, he was really knowledgeable and aprovechable and help us have a blast in the trip

Nice 3.5 day trip to Lake Navasha/Masai Mara (booked on very short notice)
A friend referred several safari operators for us.
We, a couple around 30 years old, wrote all of them via email.
Fika Safari responded rather quickly and offered a reasonable price.
Circa 10 friendly e-mails and a few days later everything was set.
The following week, we had a awesome Safari experience in Kenya.
We would clearly recommend this operator
