Kevin was great at Nairobi National Park!
We were not in Kenya long enough to do a three day safari, so our Nairobi insiders booked us 1 day adventure with Kevin from Bigfoot Adventures. He knew exactly where to go to find the big 5 (except Elephants which the park doesn't have) and he helped spot the animals. He was patient but also checked with us about when we were ready to move on. He knew the difference between a white rhino and a black rhino and drove both safe but with courage so that we were able to take roads other safari tours had to turn around from.

Amazingly efficient and accommodating
Big Foot was wonderful to work with in all aspects from beginning to end. I have not found such efficiency in the 21 years I've been coming to Kenya. From our first call to the last contact when they picked us at the airport we were pleased with the friendliness, the care we received, and the reservations that were made for flying and for our hotel in Mombasa. It's nice to have a company that is so accommodating in providing options and making wonderful arrangements. We have used them several times and each time has been a great experience. They take care of all the details that I normally concern myself with and then some. They have connections with great places and their attention to customer care is over the top. Booking with Bigfoot makes things so easy and convenient you are left with nothing but to relax and enjoy your travel experience.

The Bigfoot Team embodies the beauty and spirit of hospitality of Kenya
I recently visited Kenya for the second time. Since I had such a fabulous experience with Bigfoot Adventures on a safari to the Masai Mara in June, I reached out to their team and asked them to book a ten day itinerary of some of the other highlights in Kenya. I left the entire itinerary up to them and WOW! They totally blew my mind!
From the time I was picked up from the airport by my guide Obadiah, I was treated like royalty. I stayed one night in Nairobi and was picked up for an early departure the next morning for two nights in Samburu. From there, we had one night at Mt Kenya, two nights at Lake Nakuru, one night at Lake Naivasha, followed by three nights in Amboselli at the foothills of Mt Kilimanjaro. Every property I was booked at was a luxury experience with top notch service.
Obediah’s knowledge of the different varieties of wildlife and vegetation in each uniquely distinct part of the country was impressive. He also looked after all of my needs and preferences at each property we stayed at. He made sure I had everything I needed and ensured I didn’t miss out on any of the area’s highlights.
It was truly an incredible experience from beginning to end. I’m looking forward to my next excursion with Bigfoot Adventures!

Really great and exceptional experience
My wife and I were recommended by the Sarova Mara hotel to book our 3 day safari at the Masai Mara with the Bigfoot Adventures. Since, it was our honeymoon trip, we wanted everything perfect, including the car, the guide, trips, minute details etc. We were absolutely delighted with every single thing we received.
The Car: We got the best 4x4. I can vouch for it as other guides and tourists used to stare at our huge and new car. It was very comfortable and made the safari experience very enriching. At many points in the safari, our guide drove across fully utilizing the car's power across rough trails and ponds.
Guide: Dexter was our guide for the 3 day sojourn. Dexter was very professional, friendly, knowledgeable and really great at spotting animals. At several occasions, we were the first to spot the animals and other cars would simply follow us via radio chatter. At one time, Dexter spotted first the rhino (such a rarity and luck!) and he drove across the terrain while not losing sight so that we won't miss it. I am sure we kept Dexter busy by asking him so many questions not only about the animals but also about everything under the sun in Kenya! He responded very well to all our questions with great interests.
Overall experience: We really enjoyed the entire experience. BigFoot really made it very good for us. Big thumbs up! I am pretty sure, if we come to Kenya again, we are going to call them up again. Mercy/Maureen were the people whom we contacted for booking our tour. They were very humble and courteous and they really helped us make our journey memorable.

Good despite the van breaking down and not getting to see the migration we saw 3 of the big 5
The communication and service was great but there was some miscommunication since we thought we were going to the Masai Mara Sopa but on the night before discovered we were not which did not live up to our expectation. Accomodation at Simba Oryx ended up not being so bad despite being the only guests tents were great and food very fresh.

Double price for avarage service
The tour was ok, THEY put me with people from other tours and combine all of us. When I Sent to camp and talk with other I learnt I pains double price. So my advise choose your camp and organize with them.

An unforgettable experience
I don't usually write reviews but had to take the time to thank Bigfoot for an incredible experience in the Masa Mara. Great, friendly service with a personalized touch. We had a fantastic driver that went off the beaten path many times to find wild life for us. It was a real adventure. Thank you, Daniel and team!

Great lodging! Clear, effective communication. Unsatisfactory guide service.
We were very pleased with the open, clear, effective and frequent communication from BigFoot Adventures Kenya prior to and during our trip. We were more than impressed by our lodging accommodations at Mara Bush Camp! We highly recommend Mara Bush Camp to any future travelers planning to visit the Maasai Mara, Kenya! It surpassed our expectations! We loved the food, the service, the friendly, always smiling staff, the warm gestures like turning down our beds at night, pulling down the mosquito netting, warm water bottles in our beds, coffee served in our tent, clean, cozy and beautifully decorated tents, the scenery in and surrounding the camp, and much more! Our safari tour met expectations, and we were able to see all of the animals on our list! However, we were disappointed by our Guide's behavior at times -- he was frequently on his phone, making him distracted from us and our trip wishes. He was not good about communicating plans for our daily game drives, and he seemed disinterested by our private safari tour together. Overall, we give BigFoot Adventures Kenya a 4-star (Good) rating, but we would rate our lodging a 5-star (excellent) and our guide a 2-3-star (poor-average) rating.
