High End Luxury Tour / Professional superior services / Extensive Wildlife / Amazing Kenya
ESTLEON ADVENTURES (Esther) was 100% professional from day 1. This is our 25th Safari to Africa (many completed in Botswana / Namibia / South Africa / Zambia / Zimbabwe / Uganda etc) .... but this was our first safari in Kenya. For this reason, we did extensive research to locate a reputable Tour company.
Esther was very patient with us (me), as I had very specific requests and expectations for a high luxury high level customized private Safari. She happily accommodated us over several weeks, as we fine-tuned and customized our program 100% to our liking. She exceed all our expectations, and our trip went off without any issues.
We enjoyed Kenya, and all its beauties and of course its wildlife, so much so that we are now planning to return for much longer Kenyan Safari. It will be again fully planned to use Estleon Adventures as we were very happy with all aspects of this trip.
We were met by our Guide (James) at the airport (placket card with our name) as we exited the airport. He was with us from start to finish until he dropped us off at the end of the 5-day Tour. We stayed in three separate Camps in three sperate Kenyan parks. The first was Masai Mara NP. There we stayed two nights at Entim Mara. A stunning super luxury high end Glamping (Glamorous Camping) Camp. The wildlife in Masai Mara was plentiful, with the list being too log for all that we saw. The camp is extremely well isolated, so the animals comes literally up to your tents (including lions)!
The second park was Nakuru NP. There we stayed one night at The Cliff. It was as the fist camp, stunning super luxury high end Glamping Camp. This National park (NP) is centered around Lake Nakuru, so a nice variety of different game and bird life then Masai Mara had to offer.
The third park was Ol Pejeta conservancy. There we stayed at the Serena Sweetwaters Tented Camp. Serena is a commercial African Chain, but this property again was very high end. The conservancy offers a very nice large variety of wildlife, many types of animals we dd not see in either of the other two national Parks.
All in all, we were extremely pleased with our time in Kenya, clearly it was not long enough, but I can highly recommend the services of Estleon Adventures, as they saw to all our needs and assembled an incredible tour for our entire customized safari in Kenya.

WONDERFUL KENYA
We would like to thank Esther and James for a wonderful time in Kenya. Esther’s organization of our private Kenyan tour was perfect. We just wished it could have been longer. Our accommodations, including Entim Mara in the Masai Mara National Park, and The Cliff in Lake Nakuru National Park were outstanding. Our visit to Ol Pejeta, and Sweetwaters completed our wonderful vacation. Overall, the accommodations were exceptional selections made by Esther. As for our private guide and driver, James who remained with us during the entire tour, he was knowledgeable, fun and always on time, even when we weren’t. If you had a “wish list” of animals that you wanted to see, James knew exactly where to go and if he didn’t know, he had an array of friends, guides, and contacts who he was constantly in communication with doing his best to find those animals. We saw many lions everyday, and managed to see the Big Five. Thank you James and Esther.

A wonderful, friendly timely response from all of my emails!
Dear Esther,
Our safari was wonderful!!! From the moment Ben arrived to pick us up, even 10 minutes early which is a blessing to me, to the customized water bottles you engraved that the grandsons especially enjoyed. They were a hit and considered by them to be so very special!!
Ben was able to give a lot of details on the area we would be seeing including culture, the Rift Valley, the Masai people and the Masai Mara Park.
Ben educated us on points of interest, wildlife and their habitats and how to look for animals far beyond our normal patterns of vision. We saw so many different species of wildlife. Ben was very patient in allowing us to linger at certain close encounters with many of the animals that allowed us to get incredible pictures and mental images that will last a lifetime.
The Enkorok lodge was very accommodating and the food was exceptionally plentiful and tasteful. The sleeping quarters were very comfortable and adequately furnished. It was all a wonderful experience with many memories that will always be cherished. Esther, you were so helpful in coordinating our safari and making it successful. My compliments to you and Ben both.
Sincerely,
Randall

outstanding safari adventure
Our 7 day safari was fabulous from beginning to end.
Esther was communicative and available from the day of booking to throughout our trip.
Tom, our driver and guide was knowlegable and engaged with us throughout the trip. He made sure we felt comfortable and safe, as well as ensuring we had the safari experience we expected with a variety of animals. He was able to maneveur difficulties with traffic and weather and road conditions with still allowing us to complete our itinerary fully. He went over and above to get us late checkout from the Stanley Hotel in Nairobi and secure us a ride to the airport.
the accomodations at the Cliff in Nakuru and Entim Mara in Masai Mara and Amboseli Serena were impressive and top notch.
I would recommend using this group for any travel plans in Kenya

Excellent service in these troubling times
All set for a safari when the coronavirus pandemic struck. We have had to cancel. Esther was very understanding and has kindly processed the refund efficiently. Much better than our airline!
We will be back to try again.

Outstanding 6 day Safari in Kenya
We could not have been happier with our experience in Kenya. From Esther's professionalism, clear and timely answers to our questions before arriving in Kenya, to the perfect match of Tom (our guide) to our family's needs - it made our first Safari experience a memorable one. This being Covid times, they even facilitated our mandatory test (without impact on our visit schedule) required for our flight back home.
Esther was very attentive to our needs and the recommended accommodation (catering for a family of 5) exceeded our expectations (we stayed at the Cliff, Naivasha Sopa spa & resort and Masai Mara Game reserve).
Our guide, Tom, was very knowledgeable about animals and Kenya, great with the kids, very flexible around our needs and accommodating to our schedule, which is crucial when you have 3 young kids in tow. We got to see all the animals we were looking to see and more, and from much closer than expected.
I fully recommend Estleon for a Kenyan Safari and couldn't have more praise for Tom our guide. My only regret is not spending an extra night at the Cliff - perfect set up amongst a very uncrowded reserve.

Very friendly staff and well organized
I went on a 3x day Masai Mara Safari with Estleon. The tour was amazing and we got to see many animals living in their natural habitat. Driver and guide Isaac was very knowledgeable and funny as well. Esther kept in touch constantly and organized the whole thing swiftly and smooth. It was a wonderful experience.
