Best safari experience we could ask for :)
Me and my fiancé did a 6-day safari tour with Mufasa Tours and Travel in December 2021. It was an amazing experience and I highly recommend this operator. Joe put together an itinerary for us according to our wishes and it could not have been any better. The lodges and tented camps were incredible and the people are some of the friendliest you will ever meet. Thanks to our amazing driver/guide Kephar we saw so much wildlife! He was knowledgeable about the animals and birds and and explained every single question regarding animals, life in Kenya, tribes etc. We visited Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. We definitely plan to visit Kenya again and will definitely ask for Mufasa tour again. Big thanks again!

Professional and 100% worth the money
Me and my wife took a private 5-day safari with Mufasa tours and it went fantastic!
Our experience started with requesting a quote through this website. We received a response the same day with several options and all our questions answered.
Even though Mufasa’s offer was more expensive than other quotes we received, we decided to accept it, and that was the right decision!
I was a little bit hesitant to deposit 10% in advance, but it also turned out to be ok.
We even had to reschedule the trip due to personal issues, and this was not a problem for the operator.
We received a list off all the requirements we needed to enter Kenya including an invitation to apply for eVisa. Our manager Joel followed up regularly to make sure we have our paper work ready.
The safari itself went brilliant! Our guide Joe showed great knowledge about the wildlife and local culture. He was always in contact with other drivers in a park. We always arrived on a spot when there were only a few cars and we got the best view point. We really enjoyed game drives with him.
Our favourite park is of course Massai Mara. The coolest thing was to see the whole big five in one day, before noon.
We were lucky to see a black rhino crossing the road right in front of us, lions having zebra for breakfast, a leopard fending off his pray from a pack of hyenas and taking it on a tree, and a pride of lions playing with its with cubs. The next day we saw four cheetahs hunting an antipope. This was a fantastic end for our safari!
During the five days we stayed in awesome hotels and game camps. Each place offered great service and clean rooms with canopy over the bed. Each place offered other facilities like bars, swimming pools, massage and spa services. One advise I can offer is to bring a power plug adapter, since Kenya has UK type power plugs.
Another concern we had before our trip was the food. However there was nothing to worry about! Each place we stayed in offered an open buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner offering a wide variety of fresh and delicious food. Local and international cuisine.
After the safari we had a day free in Nairobi. We ordered a one day Nairobi tour at Mufasa. We went to the giraffe center and Nairobi museum. This was another amazing experience delivered by Mufasa!
Now we have a ton of photos to go through with our family and friends, and we cannot stop advertising Kenya and Mufasa to them!
We are sure we will be heading to Africa again very soon!

Best Safari Ever! Thank you Mufasa!
I have done a lot of safari in my life and this one was from far the best!
First of all the organization by Mufasa team especially Joe was amazing! From the first email to meeting us before departure in the hotel to make sure we were still happy with the planning etc we felt super comfortable.
The one week safari was the best ever, honestly. Colin our guide was just amazing, funny, caring and really knowledgeable about animals, nature, areas and communities. Thanks to him, since he went far and beyond so we could see the big 5 we did even at least twice each! We even saw a kill and lions honeymooners!
The camps were all outstanding: location, facilities and staff. Waking up in a tent front of giraffes and elephants is priceless.
We definitely recommend Mufasa tours and pick Colin as a guide, i promise you, you won’t be disappointed. We miss him already!

Fabulous adventure in Kenya
We were very pleased with the services provided by Mufasa Tours and Travels.
We booked safari with Joseph of Mufasa Tours and Travels and everything exceeded our expectations.
Everything, starting with a discussion of the trip by mail, detailed and fast answers, guiding and safari itself were wonderful.
Our guide Patrick was exceptional and a true professional, friendly and super responsive. He was very experienced, has a wealth of information about the country, animals, wildlife, his stories were very interesting, and he always managed to answer the ton of our questions. He was very considerate and fulfilling our requests to the best of the ability. He made our experience truly outstanding!!!
Also our guide Patrick was very professional driver. We chose Landcruiser for the trip and we never regret about this. We had an adventurous game drives and driving between the National parks was very comfortable.
Our experience is beyond our imagination. Highly recommend!

Trip of a lifetime!
I did an 11-day safari with Mufasa Tours and Travel in October 2021. It was an amazing experience and I highly recommend this tour operator. Joe put together an itinerary for me at the last minute and it could not have been more perfect. The lodges and tented camps were incredible and the people are some of the friendliest you will ever meet. I saw so much wildlife! My guide James was very knowledgeable about the animals and birds and even taught me Swahili at night. If you have the time, go to Amboseli (for the elephants) and Tsavo West (to stay at the lodge they use with a very active waterhole). I also spent a day with Mufasa in Nairobi before the safari, visiting Nairobi National Park, the Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, the Giraffe Centre, and the Karen Blixen House – highly recommend this day trip with them before you start your safari adventure. I plan to go back to Kenya with my daughter and will definitely use Mufasa again. For this trip, I was a solo female and I had zero issues or concerns.

Best tour ever
We were so happy to travel with Mufasa Tours and Travels. Our guide was a super guy, told us a lot about Kenya and animals and did his best to show us as much as possible. We saw BIG 5 and even-even more. Everything was well-organized and we did not have any problems with the car, accommodations and communications.
I highly recommend this travel operator! You will not regret!
Thanks a lot Mufasa Tours and Travels!!!

Extremely knowledgeable and friendly
Joshua was our guide throughout the trip and he turned our trip into an amazing and unforgettable experience. He knew every plant and animal that we came across and also told us a lot of new information about each one of them. As well as that when going on safari he knew all the spots and patterns for animals which helped us see all of the big five multiple times. He was very kind and thoughtful and always asked if we needed anything, if we took good pictures and pointed at all animals. We had long travels between the different parks and camp sites but Joshua made the time on the road very enjoyable and the car we were in was also extremely comfortable and great for the safari. We would definitely recommend him and Mufasa tours to anyone as we had a fabulous adventure in Kenya!

We have visited the Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha reservations with them on a four day trip.
Jo and John were our tour guides, the bests we ever met.
Very helpful, taking us to the best spots to see the animals and with a large knowledge about the animals of Africa.
