A great choice for a 7 day Kenyan safari adventure!
It has been a dream of mine to visit Kenya and have a safari adventure. I’m glad that I chose Hyrax safari's especially coz of my tour coordinator Emmah.
If not for Emmah, I'm not sure if I would have made it on this trip. She went above & beyond in making sure that I went and had great time on this safari. She made every effort to create a great experience, and her warm personality made the trip all the more enjoyable.
The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the environment, sharing fascinating insights about the animals and their habitats. The vehicles were comfortable and well-maintained, making our journeys through the parks enjoyable and safe. Special shoutout to the driver Danielle at lake Naivasha for his passion and knowledge he shared with us.
I would recommend Hyrax to all my friends especially because of Emmah and I would recommend choosing a private tour instead of a group tour.
Thank you,
Tarak P

Hyrax Safaris fulfilled every expectation
I took the four day tour, and for me, this was a fully satisfying experience, from the Hyrax agent to the safari guides. Specially the Massai Mara leg, were the environment is wilder than Nakuru. Both guides, George and Rama, were excellent guides and drivers, very knowlegeable and nice persons, always trying to satisfy my needs whenever posible. Overall, an excellent experience.

Hyrax Safari office was helpful and very responsive.
Our experience with Hyrax Safaris was AMAZING. We couldn't have imagined the variety of animals we were able to see in such a short period of time. Our guide Sammy was ALWAYS in the right place at the right time. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the animals, their habitats and how they interacted with the environment and each other. The $$ paid for the 3 day safari was WELL WORTH THE IT !! The Hyrax Safari was an EXCELLENT VALUE !

Best safari
Our 4 day Masai Mara Safari was perfect! We were also in Naivasha and Nakuru. 3 so different but all amazing places. Both accomodations on our Safari were great, camping had really good food. All the staff was very kind and helpful. Our driver Jim knows the best spots and he was really trying hard to see as much as we can. With him was also guy on induction, he was very friendly and all of the time with us.

Knowledgable guide for a wonderful tour
We had a wonderful 2 night, 3 day tour at the Masai Mara. We were picked up by our guide, Ben, in Nairobi for the round-trip safari. Ben was a good driver who stopped regularly for breaks along the way to stretch our legs. Once we arrived, we had lunch at the lodge and then went for an evening game drive. We were lucky to see the great migration, and saw many many wildebeest, zebras, and water buffalo. That evening we also saw a number of other animals including elephants and giraffes, but ended the night perfectly by watching three lions rest during sunset. The next day we had a full day tour in the park, we saw many other animals on our list, including leopard, cheetahs, more lions, hyenas, jackals, antelopes, topi, serval cats, and a large variety of birds. We ended this awesome day with two different groups of elephants. Ben is very knowledgeable and comfortable in the park, he answered all of our questions and pointed out animals and facts about them/the park. It is clear he is well liked by many in the park, and we can confirm that he is friendly and personable, he is also patient and made sure we got a great view, swooping in at the right moment to see the animals. Would highly recommend this experience!

Fabulous
Had a great 5 day safari with Hyrax - Philip, our driver guide, was absolutely brilliant - funny, kind, knowledgeable and an incredible driver! But also very responsible - we saw some drivers go way too close to animals and scare them; he never did that. Definitely worth paying for a jeep rather than a van - they handle the roads much better. Irene, in the office, was also great. I had to postpone my trip because I injured myself, and she held my deposit and remembered me when I finally arrived. Bearing in mind that to enter Maasai Mara is $200 a day, this safari is excellent value. MM, Nakuru and Naivasha are all nicely different - definitely worth hiring bikes and going down the gorge at Hells Gate.

Best Safari Ever
Hyrax Safaris is the best choice for your safari. It is a very serious and competent company; they solve any problem you may have.
Our driver, Sammy, was very professional. He is also a very good guide; in the Masai Mara we saw the big five in just one day!
We did the six-day tour and it is really perfect. The accommodation is great and the company helps you whenever you need it.
I highly recommend this safari and this company.
HYRAX SAFARIS IS THE BEST!
Thank you for everything!
