Highly passionate and extremely professional.
We came across Mufasa while researching tour operators in Kenya and decided to finalize with them after the prompt replies and reasonable price quoted. That was the best decision. Joseph (who i later discovered was the owner) organized the best few days for us and we had an unforgettable experience. They are always available to help even for things that are not even part of the itinerary (like getting the PCR tests as per current rules). If i ever return to Kenya, I’d go with Mufasa. Highly recommended.

An extraordinary lovely experience with Mufasa Tours and Travels
We have only good things to say about Mufasa Tours!
They was always on time and regardless they have to wait for us all the time they always met us up with a big smile!
They was also very well organised and whatever we was asking about (and we was asking a lot) they had all the time good answers based on engagements in a very friendly manner!
They took us to stay in a very beautiful and luxury lodge/camp which we highly appreciated.
Since this was my and my partners first trip together, we will never forget!
With love to Mufasa Tours and travels!

Safety - Security
6 Day Safari. Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Maasai mara. The Safari was amazing! I saw all the wildlife I wanted to see. My tour guide, Kevin Gichuki is very knowledgable about all the animals/birds. Lions, elephants, gazelles, hippopotamus, monkeys, baboons, wildebeest, secretary birds... The list goes on and on. The landscape was awesome! Mount Kilimanjaro, The mountains at lake Nakuru, and the grasslands at Maasai mara were so beautiful. The Maasai mara village tribe, Danced for me and gave me a blessing for my safe travels, and return to Kenya. The Village Chief put his WhatsApp info in my phone so I can text him next time I come. Kevin made sure I was safe while we traveled. If I needed cash at the ATM, Kevin would only take me to safe/secure places. My safety was his priority. The temperature in October was perfect. It was cool in the morning and nice all day. I wore shorts the entire time and had a light coat. Make sure you have at least 20,000 shillings cash for fridge magnets, bracelets, and souvenirs at each location. ($200US)
If African Safari is on your bucket list, or climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, or camping, swimming, hot air ballon safari, hiking... contact Mufasa tours and travels. Ask for Kevin Gichuki to be your tour guide.

Amazing experience, great staff
I booked a last minute safari to Masaai Mara with Mufasa for myself and my two friends. In the overwhelming process of getting quotes from various companies, working with Mufasa was very easy. All of my questions were answered and the Mufasa team was very professional and helpful. We joined another group for a Friday-Sunday safari and the price was fair. We met with the group in downtown Nairobi and were on our way. We stopped at a viewpoint and later for lunch along the way. When we arrived, we checked into our accommodation (which we really enjoyed - Lenchada Camp), and went out for an evening game drive. Our driver/guide, Joshua, was super friendly and extremely knowledgable. We woke up early the next day and went for a full day game drive. We went deep into Masaai Mara, all the way to the Tanzania border. Joshua saw things I never would have seen and we saw everything I was hoping to see. We really wanted to see the migration, but knew that because it was late in the season that we might not. When we got to the river, there was a heard, but they did not end up crossing. We were disappointed, but we cannot control nature. However, after lunch we were driving and all of a sudden Joshua saw something and then started driving fast - he saw something happening and we sped to a different river and caught the end of a migration through sand river - it was amazing and all thanks to our amazing guide, Joshua. The next day we went on another morning game drive before heading back to Nairobi. It was an incredible experience and I can't recommend Mufasa tours enough. I will also say that we took their jeep/land cruise and it was really nice and comfortable.

Excellent safari
Excellent communications, Mufasa Tours and Travels was very responsive in answering all my questions and addressing my requests. The safari itself was wonderful and my guide Mahmud worked hard to make sure that we saw a large variety of animals.

Wonderful experience, skilled driver, beautiful nature and animal adventure!
Joseph was very accommodating with our ever changing schedule. My driver/guide, Ohdis, was very knowledgeable, engaging and entertaining. He has hawk eyes to find animals and afford you the time you want to enjoy yourself. To watch elephants, giraffes, zebras, etc. cross just feet in front of you was breathtaking. The wildebeest migration was a sight to see. You have to see it to believe it. And the big cats, ... go see for yourself! Wow! Also, Ohdis followed covid protection guidelines, without hindering the experience. The accommodations were part of the experience and were unique and comfortable. I enjoyed the tent experience, and lodges where wild life was visible from the room. Food was also very good! I highly recommend Mufasa and would book them again! Thanks for an u forgettable experience.

We had Kevin Gichuki as our driver and he is just the most patient, kindest and good hearted person.
I think the response was quick and very polite. I always appreciate kind responses.. I will travel with them again and request Kevin Gichuki again.

Great experience
We spent a 7-day safari with Mufasa including Maasaï Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli and Tsavo West. The safari itself was great and we could see many species of animals, as well as a wide variety of landscapes as expected. The communication with Mufasa before arrival was okay and our contact Lewis gave all the needed information and answers.
Our guide Joe has shown very good driving skills and a valuable knowledge about wild life. We could benefit a lot from his experience during the whole journey.
We recommend Mufasa which is a Professional and reliable company to organize a safari in Kenya.
Unfortunately we had booked a 8-day safari and were forced by the ambassy to come back home one day earlier due to COVID-19 . As a consequence, we had to spend one night in Nairobi instead of Tsavo East. We really want to thank Joe who kindly provided assistance to book a room near the airport and to find maks and gloves before our departure. 4-star overall rating since we would have appreciated this night to be supported by Mufasa as we had booked for 8 days and that anyway the last day would be lost...
Despite this unfortunate timing, we were glad to do this safari and would like to point out here the quality of the service at a very competitive price.

Excellent experience and customer service
We had a wonderful time on our safari to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Lewis was wonderful and so accommodating during the planning stages. He put together a personalized itinerary that fit my party's needs perfectly, despite my request for several last-minute changes. The safari itself was great. Nelson, our driver, was so kind and accommodating. He worked hard to locate all of the animals in the park--we ended up seeing all of the Big 5! The lodging was as expected. I would highly recommend Mufasa Tours to others.
