Mission trip transportation and NNP safari
We have used Gofran for the past four years. They are reliable and always feel safe and secure in their care during our daily transports. On safari days, very knowledgeable and helpful with finding wild life.

This was a trip of a lifetime saved by Shadracks' flexibility
The itinerary and hotel selections were terrific. Could have done without the train ride from Nairobi and there was a lot of driving but once we got to our destinations it was worth it.

Exceptionl!!
We had an amazing tour with Gofan!! They are really great. It was my family trip to Kenya with my mom,my aunt and elder sister. it was unusual heavy rain in Kenya .So I was worried about the weather. It seems a little dangerous. and I worry about also
the driving distance is too long from Massai mara to Amboseri.
The owner of Gofan was able to consult the plan as I needed. I consulted him and used an airplane on the way.
He was caring for us, and he prepared very experienced driver and good car for the rain. Fortunately, There was almost no rain and a big rainbow was seen, but in some places there were puddles and swamps, Our driver saved some cars who was stuck.
Driver and guide was very good at finding animals with a wealth of knowledge.
I’m very appreciate to Gofan. Thanks to them,our family trip in Kenya was an unforgettable memory!
I highly recommend to others.

The most professional guide and the best driver, thank you for the great time, Onesmus!
Gofan is the first operator who get back to us and most responsive destination management company that has replied to our inquiry, very patient, clear communication, flexible and thoughtful.
After arriving at Nairobi, our guide+driver Onesmus came to the hotel on time and very helpful. We had the best time ever in life to visit Masai Mara national reserve. Onesmus is an extremely experienced guide, an animal expert, and the best driver. We're very touched by how he is offering support to everyone all the time, and he is warm to all the people we met. By his expertise, we was lucky to see all the wild animals and amazing landscapes.
This is a great journey and hugely appreciated Onesmus for he's knowledge and made us had an incredible time in Kenya. We're definitely coming back and will stay longer to discover more places.
We're very lucky to choose Gofan and met Onesmus!
Best Regards,

Incredible safari with top knotch tour guide
Shadrack planned a perfect trip for my friends and me and was very engaged throughout the entirety of the trip. He even picked up one of our friend's passports after it was mistakenly left at a hotel.
Our safari guide, Tony, was knowledgeable, friendly and a big reason why we had such an incredible trip. The sheer amount of wildlife was breathtaking and our accommodations were excellent throughout our journey.
I highly recommend Shadrack, Tony and Gofan Safaris and we will definitely book through them again if we return to Kenya.

A great first time safari experience in Masai Mara and Amboseli
My friend and I were visiting Kenya for the first time, and we chose Gofan Safaris because it was one of the few programs that visited both Masai Mara and Amboseli National Parks on a reasonable schedule and price. The trip exceeded our expectations and we had a great tour of the parks. Despite visiting during an off-peak season, we were fortunately able to see plenty of wildlife, including some rare sights such as a cheetah hunting its prey and a lioness feasting along the road. Although we were not able to see Mt. Kilimanjaro, which we hoped to be the highlight of the trip, the four-day safari was one of the best vacations I had of recent memory.
Also, the staff of Gofan Safaris were very kind and supportive of us. Shad, who planned our trip, kindly visited us early morning in Nairobi so we may begin our trip. Franco, our guide and driver, explained to us the different animals in the parks and explained to us of the culture of Kenya as well. The accomodations were also beyond our expectation with comfortable lodging, great food, and great staff.
I would defintely like to visit Kenya with Gofan Safaris again if I had a chance to do so. It was a great 4 day tour!
