Well organised , good choice
Can recommend the operator - got to see a lot of the Masai Mara with a highly motivated driver (Peter)!
Thank you very much

All in all a great experience
We had the pleasure of having Hyrax Safaris take us on a wonderful tour of Kenya (Mara > Naivasha > Amboselli > Tsavo West) this October, for some of the best Safari experiences we have ever had.
From the onset, Hyrax stood out as a fast and effective communicator, offering an incredibly high level of flexibility and responsiveness for making practical arrangements. The selection of lodges for the tour did not disappoint, and we consistently enjoyed the locations that were set out for us; first in the planning phase but even more so when travelling across half the country.
Our guides were excellent, and we especially have to highlight Ben who did an absolutely fabulous job with us in Mara; sadly our tour could not continue with him from start to end, as the rough terrain eventually forced us to change cars. Despite being far from Nairobi, it took just a short hour to switch over and get us on our way; Safaris are rough on the cars so these incidents are sadly just part of the game.
We travelled in a group of 5, and universally came out of it with an experience of a lifetime, it was truly unique to see the wildlife as up close and personal as we did, and we definitely felt that this experience was well catered to by Hyrax Safaris!

The Tour operator was quick in her responses, friendly and clear in her communication.
Everything turned out better than expected. The driver was fantastic and able to find all the animals, some 2 and 3 times (like lions). He was friendly, happy and accommodating to requests. It was a lifetime trip. Thanks to all! Nadia

Amazing!
The trip was organised good. Safe and comfortable. It was the best price/quality option. The parks are amazing. We didn’t expect to see all the animals so close. Thank you!

Amazing communication and everything went according to plan
The communication was great and everything went according to plan, we started in Masai Mara, went to Nakuru and then to Amboseli.
And then they even helped me with the transfer to Tanzania, since I continued my trip to Tanzania and did not want/need to come back to Nairobi

An unforgettable experience
We booked a 6 day joining group safari to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. Irene was very helpful in providing all the information before and after the booking. The tour was very well organized, we were always well informed, the accomodation was comfortable and the food very tasty throughout the safari. The game drives were amazing. Our driver and tour guide, Sir Charles, was not only incredibly knowledgable about the wildlife, but also extremely skillful in finding the animals and getting us in the perfect observation spots before the other jeeps would arrive. You could see that he has many years of experience and that he truly enjoys the drives, so we couldn't have wished for a better guide. I've never done safaris before and I was sceptical about how much I would actually enjoy them, but it turned out to be an absolutely unforgettable experience which I definitely want to repeat

Well organized , perfect trip to Point Lenana, Mt Kenya
We did a 6 day trip to Point Lenana, Mt Kenya and we can definitely recommend it.
The organisation was perfect from the beginning till the end. Rose always answered very quickly and we could choose the campsites by ourselves. So the trip was completely individual for the two of us.
The crew was perfect, they did their job and always have been kind and friendly. The food was perfect (big thank you to the chief Patrick! - best breakfast ever).
Also the two guides (Daniel and Anthony) were perfect. We always felt very safe and comfortable and they gave us time to make some wonderful pictures. I would also definitely recommend to do chogoria route including lake michaelson and Austrian hut, THIS is the scenic route.
And finally we had one of the most stunning sunrises of our life on top of the mountain. So there is nothing to complain about.

Freddy was very informative and accommodating but not that flexible when it came to schedules.
I enjoyed my time at the Masai. The place was breathtaking, animals everywhere (we saw more than 20 lions!) and the hotel was spectacular! But I wouldn’t say it was a great value for money for various reasons. We had to skip lunch the first day because the restaurant we stopped at ran out of food. I was promised water but didn’t receive any until the last day. There was also an activity that I had to give up since the driver said it was optional and wasn’t paid for then later found out that it was paid for but it was too late to go. And it was supposed to be a 3 day safari when actually it was just a day and a half. I would recommend checking what time the park is actually open and confirming the schedule for when you will go for a game drive before booking.

Great service
The game drive was booked as a last minute thing for a friend and his family and friends the team at safari bookings were very professional and very efficient in organising the game drive for 24 of us . I'd recommend booking any excursions in kenya with safari booking . 5 star

Very responsive and well organised agency
Very good experience with this agency. The five-day tour of Mount Kenya was extraordinary, the guides were incredible and the scenery magnificent. Thank you to the whole team for their responsiveness and patience. I have absolutely no criticism to make, it was perfect.
I also did the 3-day safari in the Masai Mara. It was good, always well organised. But I think the safari has more charm when you do it solo and not in a car full of other tourists.
However, once again, the agency was perfect in its organisation and very responsive.
Thank you for everything!
