A Kenya Safari that Made My Dream Come True
5/5

From the get-go Chris has been the most professional and personable agent I have ever communicated with. Besides giving a complete quote based on our exact request, he also made suggestions on what needs to be added/removed to meet/exceed our expectations. His patience is beyond any other agents I dealt with. I had a delayed flight which ultimately caused a no-show for my first night hotel stay, but Chris managed to use those credits for my other expenses at the hotel. I truly appreciate that high level of service and consideration. Their offered price is also very competitive as compared to other companies.

Our driver Joseph is equally great! We saw everything that we wanted to see, including the wildebeests crossing the Mara River, with his timing skills and a little bit of luck! He even knows how to say the animal names in our own language. Joseph is so knowledgeable about safari animals and Kenya overall, we had fund and educational conversation through the whole trip. He basically satisfied all our requests by stopping anywhere we would like to take photos or breaks. He was even kind enough to buy us fresh fruits in the street, which tasted super fresh.

I would highly recommend Sunup Adventures. My dream of flying hot air balloon over Masai Mara has finally come true!

Safari-Masai Mara-Amboseli-Nakuru
5/5

Everything was great. From the communication with the tour operator which tailored our needs to what is available, to communication with the driver during the trip, everything amazing. There are a lot of tour operators, but this one in our opinion is the best.
We were able to see all the animals, they stopped in every place we wanted, and there was no rush. We did Amboseli-Nakuru-Masai Mara in a safari jeep. It is worth the upgrade.
So, easily 5 stars. Even the price was below from what other tour operators were offering!

Good safari company
5/5

It was our first safari trip and we were very pleased and happy with our trip. On the safari tour we had very good driver John, who drove very well and we saw all the animals very closely. The communication was also very fast and professional. I would definitely recommend this safari company.

Great!
5/5

We went on a 7 day safari to Maasai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli and Tsavo West. From the beginning Chris was prompt and clear in all communication and this made our planning really very easy.
John, our guide was friendly and relaxed. He was knowledgeable and made sure we had the best possible experience at all times.
The accomodation was great throughout the trip.
We had a fantastic time and were quite sad when our trip ended! I would happily book with SunUp again if I am lucky enough to do another safari in Kenya.

The safari of a lifetime, a dream come true!
5/5

The Safari trip was 5 nights, 6 days and we spent one day in Nairobi. I went there with my brother and his wife, we requested a driver for our stay in Nairobi, they provided us with an excellent driver with no extra charge.
Sunup are very well organised, we were lucky to have "Surat" as our guide and driver, very professional, knowledgeable and decent, his main concern was to keep us pleased and satisfied.
it was an amazing experience, the hotel selections (lodges and camps) was great, the Sarova Sheeba game lodge with the baboons around you was a new and exciting experience for all of us.
everything was perfect, I relied on them in all decisions since I felt from the beginning that they were professional and they actually exceeded our expectations.
Thank you Sunup for the unforgettable Safari trip.

The safari was great!
5/5

We picked a 7 days safari trip. The communication with Chris for booking and arrangements was very good, smooth and helpful. We asked for few modifications prior the trip and Chris has been very kind to accept it.
The living conditions and transport were great and as described. Our guide, John has been very good and nice. He made his best for us to enjoy and to show us as many animals and landscapes as possible. We did enjoy a lot our trip and experience thanks to SunUp.

Amazing Masai Mara weekend
5/5

Our weekend Safari in Masai Mara was the best weekend of our lives. Chris helped shape it to our needs and flying there was the best use of our short time available. Paul met us off the plane and gave us the most incredible two days of game drives. We often found animals before anybody else and couldn’t believe how close the got to us in the van. We could have reached out and stroked a Lion twice and had a Leopard sleep under the van! Thanks so much to Paul and Chris. We would 100% use them next time.

Excellent experience in the Masai Mara
5/5

We had a really good experience booking our Safari via SunUp Adventures. Communication with Chris was efficient and everything was super clear. Our guide Josh was brilliant - really knowledgeable, really good driver and easy to get along with. The camp we staid at as part of the package provided by SunUp adventures was also a really good experience. Overall, for a first safari planned a little bit at the last minute, we couldn't have hoped for anything better! We will definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a safari in the Masai Mara.

Superb Safari Experience
5/5

Everything about this tour was excellent. It was extremely easy to organise over e-mail and Whats app as they were extremely responsive. Our tour guide for the three days was very informative, friendly and put in a lot of effort for us to manage to see the Big Five. I would highly recommend Sunup Adventures to anyone thinking of going on safari in Masai Mara.
