Incredible, professional and attentive!
After searching on the internet for a good, reputable tour provider, we were very pleased to find Lenchada safaris. We booked the tour last minute and from the onset- Alex was very helpful, providing us with all of the information and different tour options. We decided on the 7 days safari starting in Nairobi and finishing in Amboseli.
During the tour we had two guides- Joseph for the first few days in the Masai Mara and then James for the remaining 4 days. Both guides were fantastic, extremely knowledgeable and very passionate about their jobs. They were confidently able to answer all questions and provide us with a first class tour. This was my first safari and I can honestly say it was brilliant! It had been on my bucket list forever and I was so happy that we could see all of the big 5 and more!
Joseph and James made the tour for us! They really couldn’t do enough and went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time and a memorable experience!
They are a credit to your company!
I also would like to say a huge thank you to Sammy- our driver in Nairobi. After accidentally leaving my coat in the car, he facilitated getting it back to me! Thank you for that!
The accomodations were all great, rooms/tents with private bathrooms and there was a good variety of food-even for vegetarians.
Our highlights were seeing the Rhinos, Lions and the boat ride to see the hippos!
We are extremely pleased with the tour and feel it is excellent value for money. We will certainly recommend it to our friends and family! Thanks again!

The 6 Meet the Big 5
After alot of contemplation, we finally decided to go with Lenchada (Alex) and it's a decision we will never regret. It was an amazing week with our guide Richie, who tirelessly made an attempt to give us an unforgettable experience. Our every question was answered and every wish granted. We lived at some amazing properties (Masai Mara, Ambosili and Nakuru). Experiencing nature at its best is a memory I will cherish. Definitely worth the price we paid and the service provided. The ride was terribly bumpy but our Landcruiser steered by Richie made it possible to maneuver through the terrain. This trip definitely brought out the survival skills in me and if you ask me.. will I do it again?????.... Most definitely!!! Thanks, Richie and Lenchada for this amazing holiday that will be cherished forever.

Amazing agency
Last April I booked a 4 days safari in the Maasai Mara with Lenchada Safaris.
Alex, my main point of contact, was very friendly and always available to answer my many questions. He really did his best to ensure I would have an exceptional time in the park, which I had!
I had two different drivers: Denis and Isaac. Both of them where very kind, with a lot of knowledge about the park and the animals we encountered. They made sure we would see the most of it and enjoy an exceptional wildlife.
I've also really liked the place we stayed. If you can, ask Alex for the deluxe tent, it is really much more comfortable than the standard one.
The staff was also very friendly.
The only 'downside', would be the food. It's a buffet with nothing exceptional. The quality is okay but definitely not great.
Even worst would be the lunch with dried chicken and empty sandwiches. As I was on a budget safari, I guess it is normal not to expect a 5 stars meal, but i believe there is definitely room for improvement on this side.
But honestly, food put aside, I would give a 5 stars to Lenchada Safaris. I deeply believe that it would be extremely difficult to find something with a better value for money. And their customer service is just so good :)

Bucket list holiday
We choose to do the 3 days safari to the Masai Mara from Nairobi, it’s a trip that has been at the top of my bucket list for as long as I remember and it lived up to every expectation
Dennis (pumba) our guide picked us up the first day for the 6 hour drive to Sopa lodge once we got their we quickly checked in ate lunch and we were off on a safari in a couple of hours we seen 2 brother cheetahs, giraffes, elephants, Giselle and many more we already couldn’t wait to wake up the next day for our full day of Safari, so we arranged with Dennis to have an early breakfast and leave for 6:30am within an hour of being in the park Dennis had found us 3 brother lions we couldn’t believe our luck so early in in the day and from their our day just got better and better we found a pride of lions, buffalo, more giraffe, hippo and again many many more some out of pure luck such as Wart Hog and Hyena.
We only managed to see 3 of the Bug 5 no fault of Dennis he tried his best to find the other 2. He was the best guide a lot of the other cars stuck to the road but Dennis got is as near as possible which did not bother the animals at all but made our experience so much better!
We were actually sad to say bye to Dennis when the trip came to an end
I couldn’t recommend this trip any more

It was one of the best Safari's we have ever experienced. One word "EPIC"
Well i was off for 3 days and i was thinking what should we do, then my wife said lets go for safari. We have been to few safaris before. then i started searching online for Masai Mara 3 day trip and i found Lenchada Safaris. Alex was very helpful(he booked our tour for us). and then our journey begins. let me tell you the Tour guide/Safari Driver Named Evans was so helpful and supportive. we started our journey from nairobi, we stopped at Great rift valley took some amazing pictures and continued our journey. it was a bumpy and tiring drive, but once you enter the masai area and you start to see the giraffes, zebras and other animals you forget all your pain. then we reached our camping site. i have done few camping's before, this one was way better. Nicely arranged tents with toilet and shower attached. good food at the mess.
the safari was awesome we definitely had fun. Evans knew every single road and where to find the animals, we got to see lions,cheetahs,Rhino,elephants,Hyena, Giraffes,Zebras,Babbons,Hippo,Antelopes,Wilder beasts,Warthog,and many different kinds of birds.
over all it was an epic experience as a animal lover we loved the safari and recommend Lenchada Safari for all.

Overall Good Experience
I would recommend Lenchada as my overall experience was good. I have taken 3 days 2 nights group safari tour with them and enjoyed it . Our tour guide Evans is a fun loving person and also experience guy, he has a good knowledge about the park and we could see 4 out of Big 5 during the one full day trip. Would suggest to pay them on cash and not through the online link the agency send as it is not secured and will lead to fraud transaction which i experienced.

Amazing Travel Company!
Lenchada travel offers a great service. I was traveling with a colleague after working for a few days in Nairobi and we had a great time. Our driver Kikito went above an beyond in the game drives to make sure we could see all the animals. The facilities were clean and comfortable. The food in the campsite was really good and all the people are willing to help make your stay as comfortable as possible. Thank you for helping me have the best memories possible during my time in the Masai Mara.

Good camp and awesome safari! Our driver James was the perfect guide for us.
The camp have good tents and you have your own bathroom. Food was simple, but good. You'll be next to the Masai Mara, and close to a Masai village, that made the experience amazing. Our driver, James, was gifted to find animals into the park and allowed us to enjoy our safari in the best way. I recommend this camp and safari!
