Excellent ratio price = quality. Good attitude to you, no deception.
I liked the attitude of the company towards us. They helped in everything and tried to make us happy.
Alex, the owner answered all questions and helped choose the tour.
The driver Moses was very good! He is fast, saved our travel time and tried to show the maximum of animals and nature in the parks. He told details about animals and much more. There was always water in the car. You can relax and have fun. The accommodation was also very good. Lenchad Camp pleased me. Delicious food and cozy place. The rest of the hotels were just as good.
We took 6 days of safari: Masai Mara, Nakuru and Ambaseli.

Best Safari Experience Ever! Highly Recommend!!
The safari with Lenchada was incredible! It very affordable yet you still received a full safari experience and the quality was excellent. However, the biggest reason I recommend Lenchada is because our driver / guide, Richard, was beyond amazing!! He went above and beyond in providing us the most authentic experience. He was extremely knowledgeable, fun, was always willing to meet our request to keep searching for animals, and he was knew all the key areas to go in order to see all the action.
Highly recommend!!

Exceeded expectation
We booked this tour last minute and did not have time to thoroughly review the operator. We were very fortunate to have been in good hands with Lenchada from the beginning.
Alex was great at communicating swiftly and when I couldn’t pay online was ok about us paying when we started the tour.
Our tour guide James was brilliant! Friendly and good humoured (even when we encountered animals we didn’t expect. He was flexible in the arrangements and so we were able to visit a Maasi Village as well as the Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Naukura and Nakuru National Park and finally Hell’s Gate National Park.
We felt exceptionally lucky to have seen all of the big five animals as well as close up encounters with many many more and James was determined that we would have the best experience possible.
James also managed to sort out non-tour related requirements such as helping to arrange Covid tests and collecting a forgotten item from a hotel for me! We certainly felt we have been able to trust the company with the arrangements.
The accommodations have been comfortable and clean with hot showers and good food.
We have had a fantastic experience for our first safari and will definitely recommend Lenchada to our friends. We were fortunate to have a good group and as there were only 7 of us it made the tour really special.

Just great!
The Lenchada organization is great and very flexible.
Once in their hands (from your arrival in Kenya until your return from your safari and more if needed), you don't have to worry about anything.
You can fully enjoy all the moments and share them!
Alex (our contact before departure) and Moses (our guide during the safari) are wonderful and very friendly people.
Book and enjoy the animals and encounters: D

Amazing tour in all respects
We had a great experience on our four day Masai Mara tour with Lenchada. The Organisation and accommodation was great and our guide Joshua made the Trip extra memorable.
I’d recommend spending a little more on the 4x4 instead of a minibus tour to be a bit more mobile in the park and have more space in the vehicle.

Way beyond expectations for a "budget safari"
Being a "budget safari" we honestly didn't know exactly what to expect, but Lenchada - and Masaai Mara - delivered beyond our expectations. We have been on a number of safaris and countless nature trips and this was one of the best experiences we've had. Don't get hung up on this being an affordable option - accommodation and amenities are more than enough for most, in my opinion. And the wildlife experience is the same - if not better, as you will spend more time on game drives than many of the more luxurious options we looked inyo. The operation is seemlees, and service level excellent. While I do agree with some of the reviews recommending bringing snacks (travelling with a pregnant wife this was always a good idea) I was never hungry for long. Contrary to what others have stated our Landcruiser was in excellent condition. But do splurge on the minor surcharge and get a 4x4 - we stopped on more than one occasion towing the mini buses out of the mud...
A special shout out to James, our guide. Very knowledgeable of all related to the park and the animals, he is also clearly well-versed in photography and went above and beyond to ensure that everyone got the pictures they wanted.
Can't recommend Lenchada highly enough, they are excellent choice for experience Kenya's spectacular wildlife.

Excellent tour operator for Masai Mara!
Had an insanely great experience with Lenchada Safaris. I went on a four-day, three-night shared budget safari in Masai Mara Reserve in mid August 2021. I was hoping to see some wildebeest river crossings, and my guide did an incredible job of getting me a great spot to see wildebeest cross the river! To be fair, I was a bit lucky that the wildebeest happened to cross on at least one of the days I was in the park, but Moses got our vehicle to the perfect spot on the river once he heard where the biggest herds were gathering, and from other cars we passed later in the morning / early afternoon, many other guides missed the crossings that we saw. Can't compliment Moses enough - he did a fantastic job of seeking out what each of the people in our tour were hoping to see, and did everything he could to get us in position to witness it (he did such a great job of getting me into perfect positions to view animals, sunrises, and sunsets that my friends are telling me that my photos look like they were taken by a pro photographer).
The accommodations and food were what you'd expect from a budget safari, which was perfect for me. My hope was to witness the 8th natural wonder of the world and to see most of the big 5, and my tour with Lenchada Safaris 100% delivered.
