We had a great time on our Safari seeing all of the big 5 multiple times. Moses was amazing and was clearly on a mission to give us the best experience He knew how to bring us to the best location to see all the animals up close. The safari was outstanding

Absolutely recommended and it is worth!
5/5

We did 4 days/3nights tour: Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha. Masai Mara is amazing and we were well guided by our driver Moses! Moses is very well prepared and he makes any efforts to show you animals! All Lenchada staff has been always available with us. 100% recommended!
Good accomodation also provided.
Lake Nakuru very nice, Lake Naivasha good for few hours.

Safari and Kenya Today
5/5

Richard, the driver and tour guide, made my Kenya trip an invaluable experience. Thanks to him, I had the chance to witness his thoughtfulness firsthand. He went out of his way to stop the car and pick up a tour client's discarded lunch box, showing great kindness to both animals and the environment.

The safari tour was flawless, and I believe it's because of Richard that I could spot all the BIG5. The journey to the reserve passes through various towns, allowing you to see the reality of Kenya with your own eyes. I opted to visit a Maasai village, providing an opportunity to learn about the Maasai people.

I made friends from different countries, and truly, I created memories that will last a lifetime. In just a few days, I experienced so much, not only enjoying myself but also learning about Africa. If you come to Kenya, I highly recommend joining this safari tour!

The best.
5/5

We booked our safari with Lenchada safaris and I should say they are the best. We were fortunate to see the Big Five in Kenya. Richard from Lenchada guided us throughout the way and ensured that we had as many wildlife sightings as possible. He was extremely kind and patient with us and made sure we felt comfortable throughout the tour.

The guide is an important role in your experience
4/5

My first contact with Lenchada was with Alex, he was very great to deal with very attentive and made sure all my needs were met. The driver that will pick you up from hotel was also very nice and hospitable.
On the start day of my safari I was assigned a guide in a group joining safari as I was a solo traveler. They assigned me to Richard, he was the best guide I could ask for on safari. He was sharing information along the road about Nairobi, about the animals and most importantly he made sure everyone saw their favorite animal and complete the checklist of viewing the big five.
Unfortunately on my 4th day of safari they split me from my group and guide as I had booked another route to Amboseli for my last 2 days to complete the 6 days.
I was assigned a guide Izachiel, worst guide ever! I wish I ended my safari on day 4 with Richard.
I did not feel safe with him on the 5 hours drive to amboseli at all. We almost crashed 2 times, first time he took a break so abrubt that he had to turn of the land cruiser or for safety the cruiser turned off by itself not sure. The second time it was a bit dark and we almost crashed in some crossing cows.
When I arrived at my lodge also I didn’t feel welcome after the long drive.
And to complete this whole nightmare with Izachiel, I told him from the start that my interest in visiting amboseli was to view Mt Kilimanjaro
2 days we stayed in amboseli he did not even show in which direction I needed to spot.
Weather was cloudy but I think he could have at least showed that he cared and make some effort and communicate better.
All by all I arrived back safely in Nairobi but I was not happy at all with the end of this trip. Could have saved some money and do only a 4 day trip. So my advice is that overal Lenchada is a good company I would recommend most of employees are very professional but be wary of types like Izachiel.

Accommodating and professional
5/5

We are a family of five, with three children. We started our trip in the morning from Nairobi. By around 4pm we arrived at Masai Mara park. We had around 3 hours of game drive, during that we saw loads of animals including lions feeding and elephants. We then went to the camp site and had dinner (a simple buffet but satisfying), the accommodation was a tent with ensuite facilities, it was clean and suitable for our needs. Next day we had a full day of game drive were we saw many animals and took lots of pictures, we encountered 3 of the big five, Khalifa tried his best to find rhinos and leopards with no luck. 3rd day we went to the Masai village in the morning where we learned about their way of life, it was very informative. We then drove to lake Nakuru, arrived in the afternoon and chilled in the hotel, the rooms were good if outdated. Next morning we went to the lake for the game drive where we saw both black and white rhinos (so we saw 4 out of the big 5), we also saw lots of flamingos and pelicans. Last day we went for a hike in Devil's gate, the scenery was incredible. Lastly we went for a boat ride in lake Naivasha and saw the Hippos. Our driver Khalifa was a masterful driver, courteous and funny. Overall we loved the trip and would recommend it to anyone who loves nature.
