The Spirit of It All !
Me and my wife went for a safari with Spirit of Kenya and it was flawless from the beginning. The customer care promptly answered all our questions and tailor made the tour regarding our wishes.
We did a 6 days tour including Mara, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli and it was out of this world :) Our guide, Charles, is super profissional and friendly, an amazing human being. We learned a lot about Kenya and their habits and a lot about wildlife. This was truly an once in a lifetime adventure and we highly recommend to go with this professional company!!!

Was a very good experience.
Since first email all people was very nice.
During our visit to Nairobi and Masai Mara all people was very nice. All arrangements was made because we have 2 small kids.
We strongly advise to make your appointment with Spirit of Kenya.

Would give 6 stars if I could
Just returned from a 9 day Kenya safari, and it was everything we hoped for and more. Firstly, the customer service was amazing. They were very responsive and helpful in planning and choosing accommodations (which were very nice). They also included pick-up and drop-off at the airport, which we didn't expect.
Charles, our guide, is a great person in general, and an excellent wildlife spotter. He was also a safe driver, which is a high compliment as I don't do well as a rider. How he finds his way around these big reserves is a mystery, but Charles made our safari that much better.
We saw the 'big five' and so much more. It was like watching a documentary live. We highly recommend Spirit of Kenya!

Everything you would want from an African safari.
I can't recommend Spirit of Kenya enough! I was booking a safari for my honeymoon, and from the start they quickly answered all of my questions and really helped us decide what choices were best for our trip. They picked us up at the airport which was wonderful, and got us to our first destination. Our guide, Simon, was very friendly and knowledgeable, telling us much about the areas we were visiting. He also knew about virtually every animal we saw on safari. We chose the jeep option, which I would also highly recommend. We visited 5 different areas of Kenya, and if you are able I recommend this, because you see very different landscapes and animals throughout. One thing I would also recommend for any safari is to make sure you have some extra money to buy things from the locals, and be ready to haggle. They can be quite persistent! It was the most fun we've ever had and can't wait to go back someday. Spirit of Kenya were a big part of what made this trip so great, they took care of everything, and even got us back to the airport for our flight home. They made the whole trip worry-free, so that all we had to do was sit back and enjoy the beautiful experience.

Trip of a Lifetime!
We just finished our African Adventure organized with the amazing help of Vanessa from Spirit of Kenya (It Started in Africa originally). There were a few last minute changes to our accommodations (due to the rebranding of the Company) but we were more than happy with all of the changes. All of the lodges/camps we stayed at were exceptional and although we chose all the camps in Level A (Mid Range), they were all 5 stars to us. Because we were travelling to Tanzania as part of our tour, we had to change drivers and vehicles at the border. This was all well organized and we didn't have to worry about a thing. We had John as our guide for the Masai Mara and he was awesome. He was quiet but he made sure we got the best view of the animals. His driving skills were also incredible as the roads in Kenya are not easy to drive on. For the last leg of our adventure in Amboseli we had Steven for our guide. He was also very knowledgeable and we always felt safe with him at the wheel. Overall it was a trip of a lifetime and we were very happy we chose Spirit of Kenya to organize it for us.

Amazing !!!!!
Me and my family have done a 6 days tour in Amboseli, Lake Naivasha and Mara and it was awesome, we couldn't be happier! From the first email until the last day of the safari, all was a success. Charles, our guide, is a phenomenal person and professional and we learn so much with hi. He really loves his job and his company. All the staff was great and the accommodation in each location was really well chosen. We are happy enough to say to all our friends to go with Spirit of Kenya in their adventure and we will come back for sure!!!

Absolutely perfect!
Going on a safari in Africa is a new experience for us. We approached it with some trepidation, and chose the safari operator based on reviews on the internet. It worked out so well, that we are still in the afterglow of the wonderful experience with The Spirit Of Kenya! Communication was swift, courteous, professional and absolutely clear. If there ever is a company which fulfilled every one of their promises, this is it. We were an hour late in arriving at Nairobi. We were met by a smiling Moses and Jackson, and they set the tone for the great days ahead - smiling, polite, helpful, professional. We were picked up from the hotel as scheduled, absolutely no delay. Charles was our driver and guide for the next five days. Courteous, knowledgeable, cheerful and very helpful. He has sharp eyes and showed us all the wonderful wildilife in Hell's Gate, Lake Naivasha and the incredible Masai Mara.
Spirit of Kenya took care of the trip from end to end. All the hotels they recommended were very good. Food was arranged on the safari and even on the return drive to Nairobi which is a very thoughtful touch which places them right in the seven star category. I cannot praise them enough. Thank you Spirit of Kenya for a really wonderful trip.

The best ever tour operator!!!
Actually this is my third review of the Spirit of Kenya. I simply cannot resist writing things about them. From the very first email to the last day of safari this experience has been engraved in my heart. If you ever need to chose a tour operator for Kenya, I strongly encourage you do use Spirit of Kenya. Their operators, they tour guides, the vehicles the suggestions was simply awesome. If you need additional information you can email me [email protected] for further reference checking. I went for 9 days Kenya Safari, it was so spectacular and magnificent. Thank you Siprit of Kenya, thank you Simon my dear friend for life. Thank you Carlos our tour guide another friend for life. I cannot wait to see you again, I will visit Kenya soon.

This was one of the most beautiful vacation I had. I felt secured, inspired and grateful to people, nature and animals.
