6 Days Safari in Masaï Mara, Nakuru Lake & Amboseli
5/5

Wonderful experience : we are a family of 2 adults and 2 ten years old kids. We have spent 2 days in Masaï Mara and saw a lot of wild animals. We have slept in Lenchada Camp which is a simple and very clean place. After that we went to Nakuru Lake where the highlight were black & white rhinos and the flamingos. We went in Navaisha Lake where we made a small boat tour and where we were really closed to hypo, giraffes and zebras.
We have finished with Amboseli and its elephants. In Amboseli, we slept @ Mantaro tented camp. I highly recommend this camp : the location is fantastic and the personal very friendly.
A special Thank to Moses, our guide & driver who was always extremely friendly and professional, he gave us the possibility to see a lot of wild animals that other safari car's didn't saw thanks to his high driving skills. He was very caring for our children. This journey will stay in our memories!

Communication, service and reliability as well as value for money was great!

I would definitively recommend the 6-Day Budget Safari, we did with Lenchada Safaris, to everyone who is interested in seeing many animals.

5/5

Wow! My safari experience with this company was made even better by our incredible driver, Jimi! Not only did he navigate the rugged terrain with ease, but his enthusiasm and knowledge about the wildlife added an extra layer of excitement to the trip. Jimi went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible sightings and experiences. I can't thank him enough for making this safari truly unforgettable. Ten out of ten stars for Jimi and this fantastic tour operator!!!

We had a wonderful 6 day budget camping safari organized by Lenchada Safaris.
5/5

We thoroughly enjoyed our safari. The wildlife viewing was fantastic. Highlights included approximately 35 lions in one day at the Mara including 3 lionesses and 9 babies, a lioness on a Cape buffalo kill, and a male lion hunting, cheetahs , and all the incredible number of other animals and birds up close. Three black rhinos and 3 white rhinos at Lake Nakuru NP. Impressive herds of elephant with the clear views of Mount Kilimanjaro. Our guide David was extremely professional. Handled very difficult roads with skill in a powerful Land Cruiser. Everyone had a window seat as promised. David explained the habits of the various animals. Was able to spot animals we would otherwise not have seen and to position the Land Cruiser in the best spot to take photographs, always as close as possible without being too close and so that we were not shooting into the sun. When he heard about lions and rhinos over the radio he got us to them very quickly without sacrificing our safety.
We enjoyed meeting the other travellers on this group safari. The permanent tent camps at the Mara and Amboseli allowed us to be close to nature but still enjoy mod cons….large canvas tents with screened windows on three sides on concrete or stone platforms, good beds with sheets, pillows and blankets. Towels. Electricity. Western toilets en suite with showers with hot water. The food was plentiful. Basic local rice, potatoes and vegetables, chicken and beef. Fresh delicious mangoes. Camp fires! A great nature walk around the property at the eco camp at Amboseli led by a Masai, seeing many birds, impalas and a large elephant just outside the electric fence protecting the property.

A well organized safari at an excellent price. Excellent value!

Truly epic adventure
5/5

Excellent experience with Lenchada Safaris! Alex was always quick to respond to any amount of questions when I was trying to search and book safari online. Barring from a small miscommunication (which was clarified quickly) everything else went smoothly regarding the booking. Note that they prefer cash/mpesa for booking and card will incur 5% extra during the booking.

Albert was our guide for our 5 day safari of Masai Mara, lake Nakuru and lake Naivasha / hell's gate. He was the one who made this trip a truly epic adventure! He was very friendly to talk to and always provided with interesting anecdotes/information regarding nature, wildlife, culture etc. Bonus points to him to make us wake up early for the game drives so that we could see all the wildlife up close when they were awake. Albert is an experienced guide who drives also quite well and will make sure you don't get hurt during the bumpy rides.

Lastly, the vehicle that the company provided was very comfortable and perfect for game viewing.

wonderful experience
5/5

We were planning a safari, covering Masai Mara, lake Nakuru, lake Naivasha and the Hell‘s gate national park. After searching several tour companies, we found that Lenchada tours offers a five day safari which meets our requirements. Moreover we could also customize the tour, selecting a private tour for a mid range accommodation. The tour went smooth and the accommodation was worth the money. Our guide, Albert, answered all of our questions. Because of him, we could see all the big five.

Charles was the most amazing tour guide. Not only knowledge but a great driver on the busy roads.
5/5

The most epic experiences of my life. This was a bucket list trip already but it far surpassed my expectations. We saw every animal even the ones like cheetahs who are always hidden. Our guide Charles knew every detail you could think of and could spot things from miles away. He would always get the best positions and allow us to take pictures that could be on national geographic, I would come back in a heartbeat. The food, the stay, the arrangements were so smooth. We even got to go on hot air balloon to Kilimanjaro! Will never forget this trip. Also made some great friends in the group!
