Great tour that provides everything needed to have the whole safari experience.
100% recommended to anyone who wants to live the full Safari experience. Our guide Johnny was amazing, he did his best to spot different animals and take us the exact location to be able to see lions, lioness, giraffes, elephants or any other animal almost in front of us! It was an incredible weekend that went beyond my expectations.

Great safari experience with Hyrax Safaris
It is a great safari experience with Hyrax Safaris in Kenya. We have explored many fantastic places / cities during our 9-day trip, and seen various wild animals closely, even those rare species. The recommended hotels are clean / tidy and serve good quality of food. Definitely, this is a memorable trip and hope to visit Kenya in the future.

Reachable and attentive to responsive to questions on accommodation and tour specifics.
I started with hyrax (Irene) on a recommendation from a friend who had already done a booking with them, so, had some comfort intially. They were able to provide accommodation options and multiple packages to customise our trip. We went to Masai Mara, Nakuru/Naivasha and Amboseli with them and enjoyed each more than the previous one.
The guide, Alex, was especially good when it came to looking for sightings, helped us with names of animals and context for their activities.
We were able to update accommodations to suit our needs and even when we went with Irene's recommendation on Amboseli when we did not have comfort on reviews, it panned out well.
Overall, a good experience, with the tour and guide.

Very easy to book with a responsive to questions.
I went through a lot of operators when I was booking my safari. I went with a 7 day safari with Hyrax. Emmah was very easy to work with and responded to all of my questions. The safari itself was a breeze once we started. Their prices were reasonable, I did the budget option, but would recommend a mid level option for those flexibility on how much they want to spend. The difference comes down to accommodations and the budget option was ok although very basic and you may share a room with a few other guests depending on availability. Overall I’d recommend Hyrax for anyone considering a safari in Kenya

Masai Mara is the Garden of Eden!
Thank you so much for the incredible experience! The park is just spectacular! Charles is a very professional guide who put his best effort to make our game drives memorable. Emmah, the manager, was responsive and always in touch. Budget friendly and accommodative.

Outstanding guide and wildlife
Albert was excellent throughout, guiding us to some astounding wildlife in both Masai Mara and Nakuru national parks. All staff we encountered along our journey were wonderful and they contributed greatly toward the experience. The only slight issue was to do with the logisitics of having multiple tours in one vehicle but that was also navigated well, to be fair to the operators.

very cooperative, responsive and professional
Firstly, about Hyrax safari. We would like to thank them for their service. Special thanks to Irene for helping us plan the safari and being very responsive and cooperative.
Secondly about our guide Jim. Thanks a lot for your services. He was very cooperative, patient and knowledgeable about animals. He was an excellent driver and got us out of some crazy traffic and roads safely. He was also very flexible and patient with time and accommodated all our requests. He gave us all the time we wanted with the animals and did not rush us in anyway. In conclusion, he made sure we got the most out of our time and and was very professional.
Lastly, few hiccups to mention for Hyrax safari.
1)maybe vehicles could be slightly better condition. We had some trouble 1-2 times with it.
2) All accomodations were excellent. Just one surprise was that the Amboseli Sopa lodge was about about 45 mins away from the gate, which one should consider if they want to do early morning game drive and see the sunrise in the park.
3) Timings mentioned in the itinerary are kind of a ball park and you should generally consider 2-3 hours buffer while traveling.
All in all, Hyrax Safari completely met our expectations and our safari experience was amazing!
