Great Experience with Company
We, three childhood friends- now middle aged, used Spirit of Kenya for a Nairobi day tour and for a safari that included Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. We had Moses as our guide, photographer, driver and "protector from wild animals" for the safari portion. He was fantastic. Friendly, flexible and very accommodating. The experience was worth more because we had him as a member of our team.
Our accommodations were very well chosen by Spirit of Kenya and made for an enriching and memorable safari trip. Food was always delicious and ample.
Highly recommend the extras such as the open sided 4x4 Jeep and a side trip to a Masai Mara village.
Dealing with the company from the US was smooth and Vanessa is always on top of things. Great service. Wonderful experience.

A great experience with experienced people from booking the trip by email to the game drives
Spirit of Kenya replied us very fast on email. Even ee had a lot of questions they replied immidateley and had a lot of patience with us. The driver were always on time and had a lot of knowledge (he had been 15 years in the game). We saw «everything» on our 4 day safari. The big five + «all» the other animals. The game drives very UNBELIEVABLE. Worth each penny!! Accomodations were also top notch. Also the food.

Best Experience
We did a Safari with Spirit of Kenya last year and I must say, it was one of the best experiences we have ever had! Right from our initial query to the very end of our trip, the entire team ensured our Safari experience was top notch. Since it was our first ever safari, we did not have much of an idea about doing a Safari or how to plan the itinerary. Thankfully the team patiently catered to our hundreds of queries and the constant back and forth, giving us countless options before finalizing the itinerary. It was actually the highly receptive and helpful attitude of the team that convinced us to choose them for our Safari.
As for the actual Safari, we visited Amboseli, Ol Pejeta and Masai Mara. Our guide was George, who made sure we had the best experience possible. From his great knowledge of the parks and the animals to him getting the vehicle in the best position for us to get the right viewing angle and pictures, he was truly an awesome guide. At one point we felt we needed a better camera lens to get the pictures we needed, and he was cooperative enough to take a detour on our way back from the first park so we could get the lens and enjoy the rest of the trip even more! Also the ground team located in Kenya was very supportive as well, and available whenever we needed anything.
Overall it was one of the best things we ever did. I’d totally recommend Spirit of Kenya to anyone who wishes to do a memorable Safari :)

Cannot recommend this Safari comany enough!!
The whole process of setting up was so easy and Susana and Vanessa were both so timely in responding and answering all of our questions - related to our Safari as well as in relation to our travel to Kenya in general. They filled me with confidence in traveling to a country across the world, to go on a Safari which I knew little to nothing about beforehand.
Upon starting the Safari when we arrived in Kenya, the experience was amazing. I cannot emphasize how wonderful our guide Charles was throughout our journey. He was so knowledgable and answered every single question we had. He ensured we were able to see every single animal we had hoped to see (including the Big 5 and so much more). We even got to see a cheetah hunt for its 3 cubs, all thanks to him! He was patient and funny and kind and we feel very fortunate to have had him to travel with. Charles was a large reason why we had such an absolutely incredible experience. We don’t feel that we would have seen nearly as much without him. We were often the first people at the animal site and got to witness so many incredible things. At the end of the journey, we felt like we were leaving a part of our family!!
Our group of 4 hopes to return to Kenya, and if we do, we will definitely plan on using this company again!
Excellent Experience
Every aspect of our experience with Spirit of Kenya was flawless. Initially, we selected a small number of companies when we started to think of going on Safari, it quickly became evident that Spirit of Kenya was by far the most flexible and had the best communication. They put together a number of options very quickly which allowed us to choose exactly what we wanted within our budget. The booking and payment went smoothly. The safari itself was excellent, the camps were as promised and our guide, George, was truly an expert in his field. His ability to spot and recognize animals was second to none and truly amazing. In addition, he ensured we were always comfortable and had everything we needed.
Overall, our experience was amazing due to the people at Spirit of Kenya, and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Unforgattable Experience
We (myself, my wife and my daughter) had a safari in the Masai Mara. It was an unimaginable experience. we could see lions, giraffes, zebras, hippos, hyenas, elephants and many other animals in their own habitat. we will never forget this unique experience. I am fanatic by National Geografic documentaries and my dream came true. the spirit company of Kenya has rendered a good service and everything that was combined was fulfilled which is why I am commending this compliment.

*A once in a lifetime experience, an unforgettable honeymoon*
For our honeymoon, my husband and I were looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. A continent which neither of us has ever set foot on, a magical destination that we would discover together and that we would never forget and keep talking about to our children and grandchildren when describing our honeymoon...We have chosen a safari for the experience and Kenya for the destination.
Vanessa, George and Spirit of Kenya have exceeded our expectations. From the beginning the end, Vanessa was very responsive to all our inquiries (from the simpliest ones such as, what types of clothes should we bring to the more serious ones such as, after the terrorist attack in Nairobi whether everything was safe). She was amazingly patient and accomodating any and all of our requests to make this trip unforgettable to us. George was our driver and guide for the whole trip (we went for a 9 days safari) and we miss him very much, event today :) He was amazing, so friendly and considerate of our comfort and made sure that we were having a good time. What a magical moment we lived in Kenya! And all this, thanks to Vanessa, George and Spirit of Kenya! Thank you for this unforgettable experience!

Excellent organized safari trip in Kenia and Tanzania
Spirit of Kenya organized our 12 day safari trip in Kenia and Tanzania. We chose the company because the e-mail communication with Vanessa was very efficiënt and professional. We also checked the reviews online and they were positive. We made this trip with our daughter and her boyfriend and we were all very happy with the whole experience. The drivers/guides were professional and careful. They were always ready for a full day of adventure. We enjoyed all the lodges and tented camps. They were all special in their own way and the service and food was good. We visited 6 different parks and they were all very different with lots of animals. We also had some stops on the way at a market or a local coffee shop. Without hesitation we can recommend Spirits fo Kenya.
