It couldn‘t be better
Honestly, we even didn‘t expect that it could be so great.
When we still was at home, Asther was extremely helpful with everything, from planning our tour (and it was not easy, because of all our wishes

Knowledgeable and flexible
Entire experience exceeded my expectations! Ester presented me options and customized my itinerary based on our goals. She answered all of my questions and was accommodating to the needed changes because one of my flights coming to Kenya got rescheduled. Our guide, Isaac was phenomenal!! If you like somebody who’s frequently smiling, laughing, and genuine, you’ll enjoy your time with Isaac as your guide. Attentive to our needs, flexible, and has an encyclopedia level knowledge of Kenya Safari flora, fauna, and more. Pro tip- bring an excellent camera so you can capture all that you see. We also loved the Hot Air Balloon ride on Masai Mara that Estleon arranged for us. When I researched which company to use, I chose based on price/value, my experience with Ester, and based on reviews. After my entire Safari Adventure, I highly recommend Estleon Adventures!
Photos in this review were taken from my iPhone and are an understatement of the beauty and adventure that we experienced.

Trip of a lifetime!
Where to start with my review of this amazing company.
Esther was great at organising beforehand and answering my many questions. The info we got was very accurate and exactly as per the trip we had. I looked at lots of different companies and this one seemed the best at the price point for the mid-luxury category (although it was more luxury really!).
Our guide, Ben, was very knowledgeable and a great guide. We enjoyed all our game drives and he made sure we saw everything we wanted to & we had lots of unique experiences with the animals. The accommodation was excellent along the way and so was the food, we were never hungry & always ate at the right times. Ben was always ready to answer any questions we had on the animals and knew everything there was to know!
Ben is also a very safe driver which is definitely required on the single lane Kenyan roads.
We had an absolutely fantastic honeymoon and we felt so well looked after the entire week. Would definitely recommend to anyone who’s struggling to decide between all the quotes out there to take the leap with Estleon as you won’t regret it!
Thanks for such a wonderful start to our honeymoon.

Great operator resulting in a great safari!
We found Estleon Adventures via Safaribooking.com. The response was very quick and some changes we requested were no issue!
The safari itself was very well organized. During the safari Estleon Adventures was available for questions using Whatsapp which was very convenient. Our driver Tony showed us the big 5 and did everything to show us all the beautiful animals.
Overall we had a fantastic safari and we can recommend Estleon Adventures to everyone!

Estleon Adventures provided a quality experience at a fair price!!
We booked this safari two and half years ago. We had to reschedule multiple times because of corona. Esther was a pleasure to work with and when we finally went on the safari, it was absolutely awesome. Most companies sell you a canned package. With Estleon, we were able to customize our week to exactly the things we wanted to do. Bernard was our tour guide and he took excellent care of us and put us on all the animals that we wanted to see. Got great pictures and videos. Would definitely use Estleon Adventures again.

Bernard was extremely knowledgeable and flexible (allowing us to modify the trip to add some stops)
This tour was truly incredible. We were able to modify our tour and add an extra day in Nairobi on each end (before going on safari, and returning). This flexibility was appreciated greatly. Our tour guide, Bernard, was fantastic. He was able to educate us about the different animals and their habits, and so much more. He is also a great photographer and will be capturing the amazing moments you’ll experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and would highly recommend Estleon Adventures.

Excellent communication, service and accommodation that gave us the experience of a lifetime
Words cant describe how amazing this safari was with Estleon Adventures! From start to finish this was the most unique and best experience of our life. We had booked 3 night and 4 days safari with Estleon Adventure for our honeymoon and it was everything that we had dreamed of and much more. We cant wait to show and tell our friends and family back home about our experience with Estleon Adventure and would highly recommend to book your safari with them. A warm thank you to the entire Estleon Adventure team, we are so grateful!
Our guide and driver Isaac was extremely experienced, knowledgable and social. He found and put us in unique situations in both Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara where we had close encounter with lions, elephants, giraffs, chettas, buffelos, white rhino and much much more. We even experienced three chettas hunting for pray which was just an unbelievable experience. He also made us feel very safe and always did everything he could to give us the best possible safari. He arranged for outdoor lunch as well as a cold beers and red wine during sunset in middle of Masai mara. He also brought us to the highest point to look at the breathtaking view of the Masai mara natural reserve and guided trip at the Masai mara river for close encounter with the crocodiles. Before we went to Lake Nakuru we also where able to go for a boat ride to see the hippos and came very close to them both in water and on land. At the end of our safari Isaac brought us to the Masai tribe to encounter their culture and way of living in Masai Mara. We can highly recommend it! Finally, an extra big thanks to Isaac for making this the best experience of our life, for all our conversations, long game drives and beers in the evening. We hope to come again soon!
Esther who planned our safari was always quick to answer us before, during and after our safari, and was always friendly and helpful. We had booked Estleon Adventure already in 2020 for our honeymoon, but due to covid we had to rebook. Esther was extremely helpful in the prosess of rebooking our trip and answered really quickly to all our concerns and questions with a friendly service oriented approach. We stayed at The Cliff for one night and Entim Camp for 2 night which was nothing short of amazing accommodations. Great food, super friendly staff and unique experience of the wild life in both Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara! We could not be more happy with the accommodation and set up that Esther had planned for our safari.
Thank you again for the best experience of our life!

The personalized attention we were given was incredible.
We decided to go on safari only two weeks before our vacation week. On short notice Estleon Adventures put together a stunning package, completely tailored to our individual needs. The accommodations selected were luxurious beyond expectation, with friendly and capable service provided at all stops. In addition, our dedicated guide was personable, knowledgeable, flexible, and made everything run smoothly. My family and I give Estleon Adventures our highest recommendation!

The Perfect Kenyan Safari!
We just came back from an incredible African safari in Kenya, all thanks to Esther and her team! The experience was perfect right from the booking enquiries till the airport drop off in Nairobi.
I got 4 offers from Safari Bookings, and after making the comparisons (each had their own set of preferred hotels/ categories), Estleon was the most competitive under the Semi Luxury category (our hotels were incredible!). We were a group of 8 (my family and I from India and my sister and her family from the US), and what set apart Estleon was that they offered separate Land Cruisers for each family (plus airport pickup and drop) without any extra charges. 2 of the other operators seemed a lot larger, and I felt I should go with them but their pricing was way off for the same level of hotels/ services. And eventually Esther and her team made all the difference. Esther was so polite and professional in all her communication and in answering all my random queries. She kept in touch with our group front time to time during the trip which was comforting.
Our safari guides/ drivers Isaac and Benson were always cheerful, punctual and took great care of us. They always looked out for us whether it was during the safari drives, bargaining at tourist shops or scheduling COVID RTCPR tests (required for re-entering India) for my kids!
All in all, we had a wonderful time, thanks once again Esther and the Estleon team! We’ll be sure to recommend you to our friends and family!
