Amazing safari experience with Geeman!
I had an amazing safari experience with our guide and driver Geeman, who was excellent at spotting lions, elephants, zebras, giraffes, and so many more animals! Fantastic safari - highly recommend!

Well organized and all details taken care of.
We had a wonderful experience with Lenchada Safaris and specifically with our guide, Gee Man. He truly went above and beyond to ensure we saw the Big 5 and had plenty of time up close with the animals. Highly recommend a safari with Gee Man for an unforgettable trip.

THRILLING
A beautiful trip full of surprises and emotions. We could see lionesses hunting wildebeests, a pair of lions doming, leopard, cheetah, buffalo, ostrich, giraffe, elephant and so many others. It is very spectacular to go in the car looking at the landscape looking for the surprise of finding one of these majestic animals next to you, in the wild.
The best; our driver Geeman, who gave his best, during 12 hours of safari. The best driver, with full control of the car in the most complicated situations, the best guide who was always attentive to our requests, and at all times explaining everything to us. We also have a photographer set up by the company.
What can be improved; cars, some damaged windows made a lot of dust enter. The accommodation (I understand that this is eligible), there were no plugs in the shops, restricted electricity hours to light the room, and the space could be improved. But I also understand that this lowers costs, at least, for two nights that you are only going to sleep! :) However, Breakfast was super!!

It was worth it
-Recommend guide Dickson
During this journey, I was truly fortunate to have encountered a strong and professional guide—Dickson. If you plan to join this tour, I highly recommend that you specifically request Dickson when communicating with the travel agency. Not only does he excel in his profession, but he is also friendly, knowledgeable, and will provide you with an unforgettable travel experience.
-Wildlife Viewing Experience
Under his guidance, we were fortunate to witness the magnificent spectacle of the Great Migration, one of the most awe-inspiring natural wonders in the world. In addition, we saw African hyenas, lions, leopards, cheetahs, baboons, and various other animals. His deep understanding of these animals' habits allowed him to lead us directly to where they were. Throughout the viewing, he would frequently stop the vehicle to explain the behaviors, lifestyles, and ecological significance of these animals in the African savannah. This not only enriched our experience but also deepened our understanding of African wildlife.
-Extensive Connections
On the journey between Nairobi and Maasai Mara, I witnessed firsthand Dickson's extensive network. With 15 years of experience in the industry, he seemed to have friends and acquaintances everywhere we went. These connections not only made our trip smoother but also provided us with additional information and resources. For example, in a remote area, thanks to his connections, we gained access to places that regular tourists wouldn't be able to visit, allowing us to experience more authentic and unique landscapes.
-Superior Vehicle Comfort and Skills
The Jeep we used for this trip was a new vehicle that Dickson had recently acquired. It was equipped with top-tier suspension systems and premium seats, ensuring maximum comfort throughout the journey. Whether crossing the bumpy savannah or navigating rough mountain roads, we always felt safe and secure. Dickson's driving skills were impeccable; his expertise and precise judgment of road conditions put us at ease on every leg of the trip.
-Genuine and Kind-Hearted Character
As someone interested in psychology, I deeply value qualities like sincerity and kindness. Dickson embodies these virtues and displayed a high level of professionalism throughout the journey. He never pressured us into shopping or participating in extra activities. Instead, he patiently listened to our needs and did his best to accommodate our wishes. On the African savannah, Dickson also introduced many interesting activities, such as interacting with local tribes and visiting ancient cultural sites. He always encouraged us to choose activities based on our own interests rather than following the crowd.
-Extensive Knowledge Sharing
Dickson is not only an excellent guide but also a knowledgeable teacher. He is fluent in English, French, and local languages, which allowed him to communicate seamlessly with people from different backgrounds. Through his explanations, I learned a great deal about African history, culture, and social phenomena. He also shared insights into animal evolution, migration patterns, and ecological balance, giving me a more comprehensive understanding of the African continent.
-Conclusion
For a solo traveler in Africa, finding a reliable friend in a foreign city is both challenging and fortunate. Dickson is not only an outstanding guide but also a trustworthy friend. I am grateful for his care and guidance throughout the journey, making my time in Africa so memorable and enriching. If you're planning a trip to Africa, Dickson is undoubtedly a guide you can trust.

Our guide Moses made the safari unforgettable with his expertise and knowledge, found lot of animals
We had an incredible safari experience, thanks to the kindness and helpfulness of everyone at both accommodations. Our first stay at Lanchada Camp was comfortable; we stayed in tents with private bathrooms separated by a zipper. Hot water was available, and both breakfast and dinner were delicious. During the safari, we were also provided with good packed lunches. lanchada Camp had sufficient accommodation but don't expect any luxury as it's a very basic an experience of sleeping in a tend.
At Buhara Zenoni Hotel in Nakuru, we highly recommend the stay. The staff was extremely kind and helpful, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The game drives were well organized, always departing at the agreed time. Our guide (Moses) even made sure to stop at the park's bathrooms, which was very convenient.
We did an afternoon and two full-day game drives in Masai Mara, one afternoon in Naivasha, and one morning in Nakuru. It was the perfect itinerary. Staying more than one day in Masai Mara gave us more opportunities to see a variety of animals. The boat ride and walk on Crescent Island were unforgettable, allowing us to walk alongside wildlife. Nakuru was a bird lover's paradise, and seeing rhinos up close was truly amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience!
