Amazing Safari and 3 Days!!!
Lenchada Safari company was very helpful. The staff was always friendly and helpful. When we started the safari, we became like a family. Especially Geeman helped us with everything. that was so fun. He answered all our questions about Kenya with a smile. We had an absolutely legendary 3 days. Also, office staff Helen and manager Alex were really nice people. thanks for everything.

Well organized.
Overall, a very positive experience.
Let me break it down as follows:
1. Booking
The operator is very responsive and helpful in creating. Alex helped created our itinerary through a simple and quick process, after confirming our expectations.
There are several payment options that you could choose. You’re free to discuss your preferred option with the operator.
Pickup from the airport is very reliable and on time.
2. Itinerary
6 days 5 nights
- Masai Mara: Game drive & visit to Masai village (optional)
- Nakuru Lake: Game drive
- Naivasha (optional): Boat ride and walking safari
- Amboseli: Game drive and tracking (optional - offered by the camp).
3. Accommodation
Masai Mara - Lenchada tented camp: The camp’s clean and the food’s great. You need to strategize on devices charging as the camp’s not electrified 24/7. Baboons in camp’s vicinity provided additional entertainment.
Nakuru - Hill Court Hotel: hotel in town. Clean bed and hot water. 24/7 electricity.
Amboseli- Manjaro Tented Camp: Best location, scenic view to Kilimanjaro. Tent is very comfortable (almost felt like hotel room). Camp is 24/7 electrified. Staffs are very friendly, with in camp ranger that could take you tracking (very recommended as the camp’s vicinity is rich with animals).
4. Guide and vehicle
Moses is the best! He is very friendly, helpful and informative.
In game drives, he’s quick to spot animals and very knowledgeable. He also made sure that you get the best possible angle to see the animals.
Moses also helped us upgrading our experience and maximize the itinerary (Naivasha is an addition to our original itinerary).
The car is very reliable and specifically designed for safari. Everyone in the group able to sit comfortably (bear in mind, please don’t expect limo experience).
And if it is really important for you to
always update your insta story, Moses ensure you have access to WiFi.
Suggestion for travelers:
a. Make sure to strategize on gadget charging as electricity is not always 24/7.
b. Bring enough cash as all the optional experience requires cash payment. Additionally, extra beverages you take in the camp need to be paid in cash. Most places accepted USD, EUR and local currency.

Well planned safari with good team and accommodations
Starting from booking, trip and accommodation, everything is smooth sailing. We are family of 3 with 10yo boy traveling with us.
When we booked the 6 days safari, we were assisted by Alex, and he is very responsive and accommodative. We were picked up at the airport and dropped off there as well as requested.
Moses, our guide is very professional. The ride to all sites were punctual, and when we have extra time, he offered us to visit additional site that is available along our trip between places. He also has a very good eye for spotting animals, and goes the extra length to ensure we can get as close as it's safely possible. Our jeep got binoculars available, but in limited number, so I suggest you bring your own. Moses also brings with him a portable wifi, connectivity has never been an issue for us!
We stayed for 2 nights in a tented accommodation in Masai Mara (Lenchada camp), 1 night in a hotel in Nakuru (Hillcourt hotel), and another 2 nights in tented accommodation in Amboseli (Manjaro Tented Camp). The tents are way better beyond my expectations, with comfortable bed, hot water available, working electricity and satisfying food & beverages. The tents are also situated near the park, so you get to see wild animals nearby as well (which is a major plus! We don't feel like we're in danger at all).
The trip is very enriching, with the amount of animals that you can see. If you spend a couple extra thousands of Kenya Shillings, you get to visit and interact with the local Masai tribe in Masai Mara, and take a guided walk around the camp in Amboseli and observe animals in the wild up close (elephants, zebras, giraffes etc.)
Definitely recommending this tour package to my friends!

Delivered as expected.
Good service and communication prior to the trip.
All credit to the driver, Albert. He drove safely, found the animals in the parks and positioned the car well to get a good look.
In Hells Gate: A walk for 8 km on a gravel road was too much. When finally reached the rangers post we were not supposed not to go down in the gorge, due to not enough time. Fortunately the local ranger made an exception. Coming down in the gorge is the main point for visiting this park, according to me. Would have liked more time in the gorge and less on that dirt road.

Geeman was enthusiastic and high energy, it’s clear he loves his job!
Lenchanda Tours was the perfect fit for our safari adventure. The price was fantastic and we got so much out of our time. Our tour guide was Geeman, he was very enthusiastic and a fantastic driver, making sure we covered a lot of ground and saw all the animals we could. Highly recommend!

A marvel
We traveled as a group of 5 Spaniards with Moses as a guide, a great experience. He picked us up at the hotel in Nairobi and accompanied us the entire time.
In total 4 days of safari with varied activities, always recommending the best options for us, and without stopping trying to see the most "embarrassing" animals, a charm.
In the end we could see everything.
As for accommodation, the first two nights in the cabins, where we had everything we needed to eat, sleep and take a shower without great luxuries, but enough if that is not your goal. The night at Lake Makurou was in a hotel, all the staff were super nice, there was a pool, spa, massages and a spacious and comfortable room, even a small pub.
Every day breakfast, lunch and dinner included.
I would repeat without a doubt.

Amazing
Our experience with Lenchada Safari was amazing. We enjoyed too much and we saw a lot of animals. All was organised very well. The food was good with different types of dishes. Our guide, MOSES, was the best one. Good man and funny person. Thank you for all
