Amazing experience with Fede Tours
5/5

I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a one-week trip to Masai Maara and Nakuru Reserve organized by Fede Tour and Logistics, and it was nothing short of extraordinary! From start to finish, Fede Tour and Logistics demonstrated their exceptional expertise in trip planning and execution. The itinerary was thoughtfully crafted, ensuring we experienced the best of both destinations while maximizing our time and minimizing travel logistics. The top-notch accommodations offered a comfortable and immersive stay amidst breathtaking natural surroundings.

Every day held a new adventure and a wealth of incredible wildlife encounters. Our knowledgeable guide, Fredicrk, from Fede Tour and Logistics, was an expert in spotting elusive creatures, passionate about conserving the environment and educating us about the local ecosystems. He effortlessly shared his wealth of knowledge, making each game drive an educational and awe-inspiring experience. Whether we were witnessing the Big Five in Masai Maara or marvelling at the abundant birdlife in Nakuru Reserve, Fredrick's attention to detail and care ensured that we were in the right place at the right time for unforgettable wildlife sightings. I highly recommend Fede Tour and Logistics for their exceptional service, attention to detail, and commitment to creating a remarkable and immersive safari experience.

Responsive and caretaking. Happy to fulfill customers requests.
5/5

We chose Fede to arrange our "made to order" safari experience. Was not easy to trust someone relying on Internet knowledge, but now when the trip is over I am sure it was the right choice. During entire journey we felt safe, well hosted and guided with excellence. Fede managed to make our trip a really great and unforgettable experience. Martin was very helpful to advise us how to make best use of our time and money. He did a great job while arranging and guiding Safari. I would highly recommend his service. Fantastic job!

Excellent experience as a solo (young woman) traveler with FEDE tours
5/5

However, I used this website (Safaribookings) in my search for tour companies and am very happy with how things turned out!

Thanks to the Safaribookings' team for managing a helpful, informative and reputable website.

Review:
Since childhood, visiting Masai Mara had been a dream of mine. I had the opportunity to make that dream come true at the end of a work trip in June 2022. I was going to have to travel alone, as a young woman, which was somewhat worrying for me at the beginning.

I chose FEDE tours among the many other tour companies. Arrangements for the trip were made with the help of Martin, who was reassuring and answered all of my questions.

On the day when I was set to begin my safari, I was picked up by Ephantus. The moment he greeted me with a smile and a handshake I knew I was in good hands. I am happy to report that Ephantus is a great driver (by western standards), knows a lot about the nature and culture in Kenya, and is very accommodating (e.g. if you are a quite person like me, he won't force you into small talk, but will also happily engage in conversation if you are up for it). He was an excellent guide!

Given the short amount of time we had for the safari (2 nights in Masai Mara), we were able to see a lot of species, really all the ones I could have hoped to see and more. Masai Mara is stunning; although, I was surprised to see this many tourist vehicles congregating around interesting animals sightings. I was very sad to leave the park, but am truly grateful to have had this unforgettable experience.

The Mara Simba Lodge was also good, beautiful setting and the food was good. Given some of the more negative lodge reviews (of Mara Simba Lodge and other lodges often used by FEDE tours), while a minority, I am not sure what kind of level of luxury some people expect given the fairly wild setting, but they clearly aren't appreciating the natural beauty enough if they are focusing on such things.

On the last day, before my flight out of Kenya (at midnight), Martin took me out to Nairobi National Park, which isn't as beautiful or pristine as Masai Mara, but also offered very good sightings of animals, including rhinos, which you are not likely to see in the Mara. We also went to the Giraffe Center and took a short drive around downtown Nairobi (which was interesting, but may have been the least safe I felt on the trip).

Many thanks to the whole team (I also briefly met Frederick) for the high-quality tours they provide and positive attitude!!!

Great Tour
5/5

Our 7 day safari took place in three parks: Samburu, Lake Nakuru and Maski Mara. The tour was well organized, comfortable accommodation, delicious food, and most importantly, our guide, Paul, was incredibly successful in finding all the animals. During these days we saw 9 cheetahs, 2 leopards, many lions, white rhinoceroses with a cub that was playing around a few meters from our car and many other animals. What we saw far exceeded our expectations. Our thanks go not only to Paul, who went out of his way to fulfill all our dreams, but also to Martin, who organized an amazing tour.

Safari at Lake Turkana
5/5

My friend and I have just come back from a safari in Lake Turkana. We travelled with Fede Tour and the experience was unforgettable! We relied on the organisation and expertise of our guides Federico and Steve and they proved to be very competent, helpful and friendly. The safari was just as we wanted it to be! We spent our days in peace and we came back home with experiences that we won't never forget. I definitely recommend anyone who wants to visit these places to contact this agency!

Have already recommended my family and friends and would gladly recommend anyone else looking into a safari to trust Fede Tours for your needs. You will not be disappointed!

Flexible, passionate, good natured and knowledgeable
5/5

Fede tours made our 7day safari to Kenya very memorable. Martin was easy and quick to communicate with on What's app and via email from the US. He promptly picked us up from the Nairobi airport, and was a a fun and knowledgeable guide during our safari. He was always there to answer questions, and helped organize our PCR COVID tests while at camp. We appreciated their recommendations on add-ons which helped make our experience even better.
The safari was well organized with a varying itinerary so that we could see and experience various habitats, wildlife, and terrains. The accommodations were booked in advance and were exceptional- all comfortable, with good food and personalized service. Martin and Fredrick were passionate about showing us all the major animals which one longs to see on a safari, as well as many other less well known animals. They either knew where to locate the more elusive animals or would use their networks to find them. They were very patient while we took pictures or just wanted to enjoy a scene for a little while longer, and would often drive around so that we could get the best angle. We appreciated their deep respect for nature, and the beauty of the reserves.
At the end of our trip, they dropped us back to Nairobi. Overall, it was a amazing trip of a lifetime made even better by our experience with Fede tours!

5/5

Fred and Martin were very flexible. In a professional trip i cancelled and then confirm my trip to masai mara within 24h and only 2 days before and that wasn't a big trouble for them. Somehow we even manage to see the big five the first day ! Fred and Kephar, our driver, were very nice. Didn't feel to be solo travelling. I recommand !
