Reviews
Very informative about the safari
Overall the tour was a lovely experience. All of the guides were well informed and shared plenty of knowledge to the tourists. The most pleasurable part of the trip was meeting members of the Maasai tribe.

Patient and service oriented
I joined a group safari and I would like to suggest that tour companies should be permitted to leave reviews about guests! Dickson was our guide and he was patient beyond belief with two racist bullies. Their behaviour was beyond anything I’d ever seen and as a white Canadian who has been working in Africa, I thought I’d seen everything! Other guests finally had to step in because they were complaining about absolutely everything and blaming Dickson and their agent for every thing that didn’t come up to their expectations. They booked a budget safari and expected 5 stars. Please please everyone…Africa is not only animals but it’s amazing people. I urge you to talk to the staff and ask questions. Get to know their culture and traditions. They are amazingly kind and open and much more patient than we have earned. This company handled it with grace and honestly if it was anywhere else, they would have been asked to leave but that is not the African way. Nor can they because they are at the mercy of reviews. If you see a bad review, always ask yourself if it is the reviewer or the company that is the problem

The best safari experience with Kikitu!
Highly recommend Lenchada Safaris. They were easy to book with, great value, and we were lucky enough to be paired up with our driver Kikitu. He was really the highlight of our entire trip to Kenya. Bursting with energy, facts about wildlife, and a genuine desire to make our experience as good as it could be. The accommodation was comfortable, the food was delicious, and the jeep was comfortable (as comfortable as can be on those bumpy roads). There was a mixup with another driver who was to take us back to Nairobi while the rest of our tour continued on, and Kikitu went out of his way to ensure we made it back safely. A big thank you to Lenchada, and Kikitu especially for making our time so special!

An unforgettable first safari
I went alone on vacation to Kenya and my first 5-day safari through Masaï Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha/hells Gate was full of excellent moments. A 10 for our guide Dennis, who in addition to being an excellent driver, has allowed us to meet the Big 5, to give us endless explanations and information, and to be a very nice person. Good quality/price ratio in terms of excursions, accommodations, transportation... I will surely repeat and why not in Tanzania.

We saw The Big Five!!
Richard was an amazing guide and driver.
We felt in safe hands at all times whilst driving around on the main roads and in the national park.
Richard knew exactly where to go and gave us enough time to get some great photos and to take it all in.

Moses was the best guid
We booked 6 days of safari (Masai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli). And it was amazing! Moses was our guide and he did a great job. He always knew the best spots to see the animals.
Lenchada is a well organized agency. The communication with Alex was easy.

David is the man!
Alex from Lenchada handled everything and delivered everything he promised with no surprises. I definitely recommend booking with him.
David our driver from Jocky Tours was amazing. He was punctual and flexible. He perfectly managed a car full of strangers with very different attitudes who didn't know each other for three days straight. Him and his colleagues were able to pin point exactly where the animals were so we can see them. I definitely recommend asking for David for your next safari!
The good people at Mara Sopa Lodge made me fee at home. The food was delicious.

Amazing Safari experience!
We booked a shared tour, and are so glad we did. We met amazing and interesting people. The drivers Musa and Jimmy are the best! They have a great ability to find unique animals in the reserves

Lenchada They really look after you
Even before we could start our Safari KLM lost my suitcase - not ideal. Alex (Lenchada boss) reassured me that he would see to it that the suitcase will be reunited with us and he kept his word - over and beyond duty of care.
Kikitu our travel guide and driver excellent beyond words - I am sure other drivers are good but prospective Safari travellers insist on Kikitu settle for no others. You will be glad you took my advice. Just do it trust me. He is so good he loves his job very knowledgeable kind observant looks after you like a member off his own family.
Overall the Safari was excellent like a fairy tale despite initial hiccups. Kikitu made sure we were taken to all the salient spots saw all wildlife to our hearts content - all was accomplished in a very professional manner.
Kikitu has been doing this for so long he is a pro. We covered Masai Mara Lake NaKuru. Lake Naivasha the accommodations were A1 food was out of this world any 5* all inclusive European standard Naivasha Sopa lodge was the best Masai Mara Sopa lodge next and Lake Nauru lodge 3rd best.
So those who wish to go on Kenya Safari I whole heartedly recommend Lenchada Safari Alex and Kikitu to you. You will have nothing to worry
Wish you all the best safari experience
