Couldn’t have chosen a better tour company.
My first trip to Africa, as such, wasn’t sure what to expect, having read many reviews can be confusing.
After having done an exhaustive online search for safaris in Kenya, I decided to go with Chris company “Sunup Adventures”. His follow ups right after requesting a quote gave me a sense of assurance. Making a 50% deposit to a company half way across the planet in a land you have never been to is something I rarely would do.
But I had nothing to worry, Chris and Josh arrived actually 30mins before pick up rendezvous, the van was clean and Josh my guide / driver was well dressed in a neat uniform.
I spent the following 5 days in a solo luxury safari. The hotels were great!
I was always treated like royalty.
Josh always made sure we arrived on time for the game drives, he was always very punctual to our early morning meet up times; super active on the radio and quick to move to make sure I did not miss the hard to find animals, which was very essential for me as a photographer.
Josh takes his job seriously, he made sure I had the best possible positions to take my pictures, and waited patiently until I was ready to continue.
Indeed a very pleasant person.
He brought me to a Maasai village where I got a great video documentary.
Got amazing pictures of the big five.
This trip was basically everything I expected and more.
I would without hesitation recommend Chris, Josh, Sunup Adventures.
At the same time I would like to thank them for providing me with such great service.
Great memories indeed.
Can’t wait to go back!

Unbelievable Experience
My friend and I were looking to book a last minute safari. After looking at various trips we finally decided to do a 4 day Lake Nakuru/Maasai Mara tour. It was the best decision we could have made. We decided to use the 4x4 instead of the van - another great decision. Even though it cost more it was well worth it. It was very comfortable traveling over dirt and rock roads and it got us into areas the van would not have been able to go. Although they cannot guarantee animal sightings our guide Surat Nur was unbelievable. I think he showed us every possible animal that lives on this reserve. The highlight was driving for an hour just in time to catch a leopard coming down from a tree and walking right in front of our jeep. Not only were the tours fantastic, the accommodations were also amazing. We stayed at the Ziwa Bush Lodge and the Ilkeliani camp. Both places were beyond our expectations. The staff at both were helpful and friendly and the food was excellent. They treated us like royalty. Chris was fantastic in making the arrangements and went out of his way to make our trip the best ever. I cannot recommend this highly enough!!!

Amazing Experience
We were travelling from India and it was our first visit to Africa.
Sunup adventures made sure it was a very memorable experience.
Both Chris and John are very knowledgeable and took very good care of us. John has super human eyes and he was able to spot animals at crazy distances :)
We highly recommend Sunup for anyone visiting Kenya!

Amazing service, fast response, knowledgeable guide and wonderful safari at the amazing Zebra Plains
First, the service was excellent as Chris was very fast to respond to our several questions. We reserved just few days before going on this 3 days 2 nights safari in the Masai Mara. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience! Our guide Josh was excellent and very knowledgeable about the wildlife, their ecology, as well as the Masai culture. We visited a Masai village, did a walking safari, and saw so many species during our short stay. We stayed at the Zebra Plains Collection Camp, which was a truly wonderful place to stay, with an amazing staff and dreamy location. I wish to come back one day. Thank you. Asante Sana!

Fantastic Kenya experience with SunUp Adventures
Everything was smooth, from the first contact with Chris who gave us a lot of options to choose from and proper advice based on our preferences, to the extraordinary guide/driver/FRIEND! Johnny whose skills and knowledge were irreplaceable. Zebra Plains Mara Camp is a place to be if you want unspoiled touch with nature and with amazing Masai people. Thumbs up for SunUp Adventures!!!

A unique experience!
Our 3-day Safari was amazing, we saw all animals with the only exception of rhyno, which is unfortunately quite rare by now. Our guide John was great and Chris as well was so good at arranging such a lovely accomodation despite the short notice. We would strongly recommend Sun-Up Adventures, we had an amazing experience!

Unforgettable experience
We had such a fantastic trip with Sunup adventures. Chris was very responsive with all communication before the trip and our driver/guide John was wonderful! We went out for a full day game drive which did not disappoint we saw 4 of the big 5. John was very flexible and happy to do what we wanted. They even helped me organise a surprise Hot Air Balloon ride for my partner which was also a fantastic experience. We’d definitely recommend Sunup to any friends.
