Spirit of Kenya far exceeded our expectations!!
Our decision to go with Spirit of Kenya far exceeded our expectations. We felt very comfortable after our first few planning meetings with our Personal Journey Designer's (Filipa). We received first class communications during the planning stages of our adventure. We went with an 11-day safari in Kenya & Tanzania, and it was nothing short of amazing. Our guides (Michael, Solum and Johnston) were kind, knowledgeable and an overall joy to spend time with. We learned so much about the countries, animals and history of the various parks. Each of the bush camps/lodges we stayed were beautiful, clean and the staff made you feel like family. We did not have one disappointing meal the entire time!! Cheers to Spirit of Kenya! Keep of the good work and we will see you again in a few years.

If you are travelling to East and South Africa, SpiritofKenya is highly recommended.
Thank you Andre, our journey designer, who promptly answered all my questions, with hundreds of emails. Ken, our safari guide and Alex, our city guide, both are professional and knowledgeable about the wildlife.
Shoutout to Ken, who tried his very best to look for animals and finding a good spot to take good pictures. Thru his professionalism, we managed to see The Big Five & great migration. We had alot of fun and this is one of my best memories ever.

Exceptional Safari
The safari that my wife and I went on for nine days was exceptional. The accommodation was excellent, and I am happy to thank our fantastic guide, Charles, who made the trip. His knowledge of wildlife is extraordinary; he was informative, patient, intuitive, caring, and an excellent driver. From start to finish, the organisation was first-class and exceeded our expectations.

Amazing Kenya adventure!
Our safari with Spirit of Kenya was amazing! Africa, nature and people have stolen our hearts!
Both parks that we visited, Amboseli and Masai Mara, surpassed our expectations! Our guide Lucas was so nice, and patient, and engaged - thanks to him we have a lifetime memories! He did his best to let us take as best pictures as possible! He always found the position where we had the closest possible look at animals. Despite the fact, that we didn’t have the professional camera, we took some memorable pictures.
We’ve seen a lot of animals and are already thinking about next safari, to see more of them again!
Accommodation was really good everywhere where we went, but The Kibo Safari Camp in Amboseli was so special! What a vibe that place has! We really felt like we belong there! Very cozy, homely, awesome camp! And comfortable and stylish at the same time.
What we enjoyed a lot, was a lunch in the Masai Mara park!
What made us feel very well taken care, was the André (journey manager) help from the very beginning. I had a lot of worries and doubts, and thanks to his patience and support through the whole process (and my most stupid questions), I felt so much more secure.
We hope we will be able to repeat it as soon as possible!

Ensured our safari experience was all we hoped for
Fabulous from beginning to end. Returning to my country of birth with my family, I wanted to showcase Kenya and I certainly did with Spirit of Kenya. Communication with Vanessa was prompt and efficient and our guide and driver, Mike was amazing. We saw many, many animals and and he ensured it was adventurous and exciting. Highlights included watching families of elephants at the waterhole in the Abederes and discovering juvenile lions in Samburu. Our accomadation was amazing and gave us a ttue taste of safari adventure. Asante sana, Spirit of Kenya.

Awesome experience
Everything was FANTASTIC. Our tour guide Lapheal was awesome. He went above and beyond for us each day of the tour. All of the accommodations were beautiful and the staff had the utmost professionalism and hospitality. All the meals were delicious and they made us feel at home. The game drives were incredible, truly a once in a lifetime experience. We enjoyed the boat ride, and appreciated a day of down time. We seen all the animals we wanted to! We got really close to a cheetah and a pride of lions- that would be definitely parts of the highlights of the game drives. Also, we were able to see some baby hyenas with their mom which was very wholesome. The final day there was a problem with the airport accommodation but that was solved quickly. Overall, SOK exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend anyone looking to go on safari to work with Spirit of Kenya!

Customizable safari by really customer oriented company
We did a 4 day safari which was completely customized based on our plans prior to and after the safari. This meant we were able to really maximize our time in Kenya. Vanessa was incredible in making this possible and her communications were clear and timely throughout. The resources provided by Spirit of Kenya were also very helpful as we prepared for the trip. Once on the safari, Joseph, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable, perceptive, and thoughtful. He went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable when I fell ill. I would highly recommend using Spirit of Kenya.

An unforgettable safari adventure!
Just returned from an incredible 9 day safari with Spirit of Kenya. At the very start, Victor was instrumental with planning our girls’ trip. Victor was very responsive, organized and gave good recommendations on how to curate our safari. Our accommodations were great with a focus on sustainability and conservation. In addition, they were in convenient locations with delicious food and friendly staff.
Our guide Sammy had a wealth of knowledge of animals, and also provided a fresh, introspective view of Kenya’s culture and history. Sammy shared his love of animals and birds from big to small – for example, there was an upside-down terrapin on the road and he stopped to turn it over. He was very professional, answered all of our questions and made every effort to make our experience a memorable one. Sammy knew exactly where to go in each park for the best views and with his eagle eyes we got to see all of the Big 5 and then some. He was very patient as we spent so much time snapping endless photos. He really went above and beyond for us.
This trip exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend Spirit of Kenya. We are already considering our next return trip and would love to travel with Sammy again.
Asante sana
