Well worthy tour with Lenchada Safaris
5/5

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
4/5

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
5/5

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.

Memories in Kenya

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!
5/5

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
5/5

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.

Amazing experience with Lenchada safaris, and wonderful tour guide/driver Willson!!
5/5

We just did a 7 days safaris tour with Lenchada Safaris, it is a amazing experience! Start from the very beginning, Alex communicate promptly with all my questions. We then started with our guide Wilson for 7 days safaris tour. Wilson is a very experienced and enthusiastic guide, he knows where to find all the animals, he worked hard to drive to all corners for us to see big fives, he also tried to find the best angle and light position for us to take photos. Every day is a new experience and full of joy. Willson is also very knowledgable about animals behavior, provided us lots of informations. Lenchada camp is also well equipped. Service is excellent. This trip is certainly unforgettable to us and we highly recommend this Lenchada Safaris tour!
