From start to finish, the customer service was outstanding, putting people first.
We contacted around 8 tour operators. Almost all were quick to respond. Polite, friendly and willing to help. However, Lenchada Safaris stood out from the rest. It seemed too good to be true and I was, frankly, suspicious and waiting for the catch. Our 5-day Masai Mara/Nakuru safari ended yesterday and every moment was amazing. We've been able to create and capture fond memories which simply would not have been possible without Lenchada. Businesses are plenty, competition is fierce and most, in my experience, regardless of industry, put profits ahead of people. For Lenchada it's the other way round. Even after returning from our safari, we had a call from Alex just to ask how it went. So grounded, humble, generous, kind and remarkable, Alex is a true, role model gentleman, leader and boss. Our driver, Albert, was absolutely amazing. So popular, well-known within the Safari circles and he consistently went the extra mile to ensure our experience was the best. All Lenchada staff, including Tito and Rispar were fabulous. Our safari was specially for my son, an aspiring pilot, who loves animals. We saw all expected animals, the rare sights, visited Masai Village. Dinner was great. We leave for the UK tomorrow, taking with us superb memories, all thanks to Lenchada. Hats off to Alex and Moses and their dream team who continue to fly the flag for Kenya, a nation which should be so very proud of its nature and citizens.

Dickson was amazing
Dickson was our driver and tour guide for three days. The game drives were amazing because he made sure we had good angles of the animals. He also gave interesting facts about Kenya, Masai Mara and the animals. Overall, I recommend this tour and commend Dickson!

Great! Better than expected!
Dennis, our tour guide, was great! He helped us along the way a lot. I booked the trip before I left for my trip and was a bit nervous about choosing the right company. Once i was picked up in Nairobi, everything went smoothly. I chose the budget accommodations and it worked out great. The tent camping was definitely more “glamp”-ing with private bathroom and electricity.

serious, punctual and well-organized travel agency
we took a budget Safari around 858 USD per person for 6 days 5 nights. the first camp at the Massai Mara, named Lenchada camp, is very dilapidated. It would be necessary to improve certain things, notably access to hot water at any time without asking reception or even access to lighting which was also faulty. To allow customers to better choose the type of housing desired, the agency should offer different types of prices depending on the different types of housing desired before purchasing.
Otherwise, the visits went well. Meals remain quite simple, especially for picnics. Our guide driver, Richard, was very good, he was able to share with us his knowledge of animals and exchange with Kenyan culture.

Safari can be loads of fun also during the rainy season
We had awesome fun with Evans as a guide and driver. His driving skills on flooded roads are legendary. It was so much fun looking for animals in the bush together.

Quick response to everything i needed and very professional
I picked the 4 day Safari to Masai Mara and lake Nakuru and i am really satisfied with the really unique experience that we had watching wildlife in their natural environment and learning a lot of things about Kenya and the animals!!
Our guide was Julius who was an amazing guide always in the mood to explain everything and doing everything he can to ensure we have the best experience in the Safari, despite the bad weather that we encountered we managed to see the big 5 of the animals with us being in the best spot possible to take the best photos!
I absolutely recommend anyone visiting Kenya doing this Safari with Lenchada and Julius as the guide!

Awesome Trip
That is an absolutely awesome trip! I have to admit, the excitement of this trip continues to this day. It still feels incredibly exciting when we get in the Safari and witness many wild animals moving, sleeping and fighting less than two metres away from us.
Mr Aven was our guide and driver for the seven days. My boyfriend and I both agree that Mr Aven played a key role in making our trip a superb experience, Aven is a very experienced guide and was able to lead us to the various animals without any problems. During the seven days we saw lions, leopards, black rhinos, white rhinos, elephants, giraffes, hippos, baboons, monkeys, flamingos, zebras and a wide variety of deer and birds. On the penultimate day of the trip we were also surprised to see baby lions and lion families! They were less than a metre away from us, a moment I should remember for the rest of my life. From the beginning Alex helped us plan a perfect itinerary that gave us the opportunity to visit four national parks in one week, and Aven was very considerate of us during the trip, making us feel comfortable and enjoy our trip to Kenya. We felt that the amount of animals we could see in Kenya depended a lot on the experience of the guider. Therefore, if you are also planning to visit Kenya, we highly recommend Mr Aven and this tour company.
