Above expectation!
Though booking a cost-friendly safari, it really turned out to be above expectation. The destinations chosen were matching perfectly and we had the fortune of having Dickson as driver and guide: really amazing. Always kind and gentle towards the partecipants, he is a careful and expert driver. He filled our journey with precious information about animals and life spotting all possible animals we wanted to see: really much much apreciated and highly recommended!!!!

Wonderful experience!!
One of the best experiences of my life, thanks to our gide Dickson for all the information he has given us about nature and animals.
He's a really good driver, he has a safe guide on all types of roads.
Dickson managed to organize everything in the best way for all the people joining our group. In the end thanks for all the laughter and the time we spend together.

Great nature, great tour
I spent the last 3 days between Masai Mara and lake Nakuru: I didn't expect this nature to be so great and wide.
Our skilled and expert guide Dickson allowed us to see some of the most wonderful creatures on this planet.
Also I must say the accomodations, the meals and the services were beyond my expectations.
An experience worth to live at least once in a lifetime.

Unforgettable Safari Experience with Exceptional Guide Dickson!
I recently had the privilege of embarking on a 3-day safari adventure in the breathtaking Masai Mara, and I must say, it was an experience of a lifetime! The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly our guide, Dickson, who went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable journey.
Dickson's extensive experience of 15 years shone through in every aspect of our safari. His exceptional knowledge of the terrain, coupled with his keen eye for spotting wildlife, allowed us to witness the most incredible moments up close. From the majestic lions to the graceful cheetahs, Dickson expertly navigated us to the heart of the action, providing unparalleled insights into the animals' behavior and habitat.
What truly set Dickson apart, however, was his warm hospitality and dedication to our group's comfort and enjoyment. He took the time to understand our interests and tailored the safari to meet our needs, ensuring we made the most of our time in the reserve.
Dickson's passion for wildlife and conservation was evident throughout our journey, and his enthusiasm was contagious. He shared fascinating stories and anecdotes about the animals, the land, and the local culture, enriching our understanding and appreciation of this incredible ecosystem.
If you're planning a safari adventure in Masai Mara, look no further than Dickson as your guide. His expertise, hospitality, and dedication will guarantee an unforgettable experience. We can't wait to return and explore more of Africa's wonders with Dickson by our side!
Thank you, Dickson, for an unforgettable safari experience!

Well worthy tour with Lenchada Safaris
We joined tour "6-Days Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli Safari on Landcruiser" starting from August 2, 2024. This tour was offered by Lenchada Safaris. We were very much satisfied with the entire tour, literally from the very beginning to the very end. The entire program was faithfully executed as described in TripAdvisor and other online platforms. On Day 1, we were picked up from our hotel in Nairobi. On Day 6, we were kindly dropped at Nairobi Airport so that we could continue our journey easily. During 6 days of safaris, our guide/driver John was certainly highly skillful in spotting animals and driving to the best positions to view them. We were able to see exciting wildebeests migrating (although not seen crossing Mara River), rhinos, lions, cheetahs, hippos, crocodiles, buffalos, various antelopes, birds (like elegant flamingos) , many elephants, zebras, girrafs, warthogs, hyenas etc. Our fantastic, breathtaking view of Kilimanjaro mountain with stretch of grass plain plus peaceful elephants, will remain in our mind for a long time. The lodging and food contitions were much better than what we expected. Basic water, washroom, shower, electricity were adequate without any glitche. So called tent was actually like a spacious single house with private bathroom. All in all, we highly recommend this tour for anyone who has a dream of doing a safari in Africa. It was so interesting, enjoyable and rewarding. Our choice of Lenchada Safaris is a great one.

Well organized and friendly service
I am overall happy with the service by Lenchada. Quick response on the emails, friendly service, good organization, I can list many things.
I selected an economic 6 day tour, which I think the difference is basically the accommodation. Though things are not prefer as in 4 or 5 star hotels, the friendly and hospital service at Masai Mara/Amboseli camp accommodation exceeded my expectations.
I am also happy that the driver made all his effort to guid us through and I am happy that I was able to see all big 5 and spectacular view of Kilimanjaro. I surely recommend this tour when I return back.

Good experience for the price
Good experience at a pretty affordable price especially considering it's high season, we saw all big fives thanks to our driver & guide Peter kapino who has ~15 years of experience in safari. During the high season things could be a bit chaotic, but the communication with Lenchada side is really efficient and problems got solved quickly.

Title: An Unforgettable Kenya Tour with Lenchada Safaris!
I recently returned from an incredible 7-day Kenya tour with Lenchada Safaris, and I must say it was an experience of a lifetime! Our tour operator, Alex, was exceptional in every way. His knowledge, expertise, and passion for wildlife and conservation made our journey truly unforgettable.
The good stays at various lodges and camps were comfortable and convenient, but I must mention that the tents could use some upgradations. However, this minor aspect didn't dampen our spirits, as the breathtaking scenery and wildlife encounters more than made up for it.
From witnessing the majestic lions and leopards to marveling at the majestic elephants and giraffes, every moment was pure magic. Alex's guidance and insights added depth to our experiences, making us appreciate the beauty and wonder of Kenya's wilderness even more.
Overall, I'd highly recommend Lenchada Safaris and Alex to anyone looking for a memorable Kenya tour experience. While there's room for improvement in terms of accommodations, the tour's highlights far outweigh any minor drawbacks. If you're ready for an adventure of a lifetime, look no further!

WHAT A BEAUTIFULL EXPERIENCE!
We are 4 friends who have decided to spend our holidays in Kenya for the first time in August 2024!
After various searches we booked the Safari through the Lenchada tour operator, organizing a group safari (economic accommodation) 4 days Masai Mara and one day Lake Nakuru. But our driver gave as the possibilty to stop also in lake Naivasha during the road to Nakuru.
We have just finished our safari and I can confirm that our guide, Peter Kapino, immediately proved to be very professional and respectful both towards us and towards the animals and nature.
He took us around the park far and wide allowing us to admire all the animals of the savannah, we saw all the big 5 and the ugly 5 with him.
Peter told us many curiosities about the animals and the park itself, also he is a number 1 driver, he drove the landcruiser like a real driver. Despite the various dirt roads and waterways, he never got stuck with his jeep.
As for accommodation, we stayed at Lenchada Camp during the nights we spent at the Masai Mara, a basic tented camp with good food, near one of the main entrances to the park.
We spent the night at Nakuru at the Hill Court hotel, a very nice hotel.
I highly recommend both Lenchada as a tour operator and especially Piter Kapino as a driver and safari guide.

Peter Kapina best driver ever
We did a 5 day safari masai mara-naivasha-nakuru and it was fantastic. If you can ask for Peter Kapina, best driver, kind and super helpful, who made this safari unforgettable. Where all the jeeps got stuck he could easily pass, he could drive with his eyes closed and also he know all about animals.
