5/5

What a great 3day Safari in Amboseli national park.My wife and I really enjoyed the spectacular nature of the camp site and the magnificent view of mount Kilimanjaro peak,our tour guide Mr.Dan was conversant with the flora and fauna in the park,his ability to spot wildlife while navigating bumpy road was uncanny and no question was left unaswered,we were safe and in good hands.Thanks to kingTomondo tours for the wonderful planning and all arrangements to make this trip memorable.Everything was organized right from the hotel,food and transportation until the last day.We have been to many safaris but this was the best and we can't wait to go for another tour.Thanks Lisa

Very well organized and interesting private safari tours in different National Parks with family.
4/5

We did the first 4days private safari together with our son and his wife to Tsavo East, Thaita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary and Tsavo West. We startet from Diani Beach and ended our safari in Nairobi according to our special wish. The Lodges chosen by KingTomondo Safaris were all excellent. Said, our driver knew the places where to spot the wild living animals very well and so we had a very interesting trip. The car was comfortable and Said had always enough water on board. We can recommend KingTomondo for a Safari to this NPs of Kenya.
From Nairobi, my husband and I startet for a second 3days safari to Masai Mara organized by KingTomondo with Said as driver. It was obvious that KingTomondo is located in Mombasa. We had the impression that Said knew this NP less well than the 3 in East Kenia. The travel differed from the one described in the offered program. We departed from Nairobi at 11am (in the program was offered a departure short after lunch) and were already back to Nairobi at 2pm in the afternoon of the 3rd day, because we had to leave the NP before 8am instead as planed after lunch. The problem Said encountered with the park organization and the 3 stops for tire change were a little disappointing. But Said did his best to save the situation. And so finally we also enjoyed this second safari. We can recommend KingTomondo Safaris to everyone who wants to see the Kenya NPs and enjoy the variety of landscapes of Kenya.

Amazing safari
5/5

I traveled to Kenya with some friends on very short notice and King Tomondo Safaris was able to set us up with a 3-day program that suited us with only 2 days notice. Their communication was fantastic, they gave so much information ahead of time (even with recommendations outside of the safari for staying in Kenya) and they were always quick to respond and help. Our guide Daniel was amazing, he was so knowledgeable and fun to drive around with for 3 days. We absolutely loved the game drives, the tent camps, the land cruiser....everything was perfect, organised, convenient, exciting - we will remember this trip for the rest of our lives.

Fabulous safari!!
5/5

We really enjoyed our recent Safari with Said to tsavo east and west and amboseli. It was amazing, we saw so much wildlife such as cheetahs, leopards, lions, hippos and even a rhino. Our guide was very experience and knew exactly where to go to see the wildlife. We fully recommend king tomondo for a great safari with Said who was a absolutely fabulous guide.

Superb organization, strongly recommended!
5/5

We were hesitant to go on safari during these difficult times at first. We asked a few of the local agencies for rates but were not sure if we really wanted to go. Lisa from KingTomondo was the one finally able to make us feel comfortable enough to go through with the booking. She answered all our questions and responded to our initial worries with great patience.

The safari took us to Tsavo, Amboseli NP and Salt Lick and we were very happy with how everything went. Our driver Said was super nice and we hope we can go with him again in the future. He really has the eyes of an eagle! Although this has not been our first safari, things were still a bit different this time. The parks are almost empty and sometimes we took long without seeing any other safari car. This is certainly bad for the industry but for us it made for a very special experience. We also worried about health at first, but were pleasantly surprised with how well the camps managed hygiene. For anyone thinking whether or not to go on safari these days, we can definitely recommend to do it. For us, we will be back to Lisa and KingTomondo in the future, hopefully with the same amazing experience.

Dream like Safari Tour
5/5

We have completed an amazing safari and holiday with the help of Lisa and our travel guide Dan. Dan has a very good knowledge about the nature and the habitat also very good driver. He did his best for us. We have visited all 5 big and lots of other species, it was amazing experience for us. The choice of accomodation points that they offer also was so good and comfortable. Lisa from King Tomondo who helped us to organize a very best plan for a safari was very helpful and experienced person. She helped in every point that we need. We want to thank all King Tomondo crew for a great unforgetable Kenya Safari tour. Hope to meet again.

Friendly, professional, amazing!
5/5

We requested quotes from a number of tour companies. Looking at the price they gave us, KingTomondo was neither the cheapest nor the most expensive option. Although price definitely mattered for us, we ended up choosing KingTomondo and we didn't regret our choice for one second.

Lisa and Niklas always!! answered our emails (and there were many emails, since it was our first safari and we had questions about many things) within 12 hours, most of the time even within one or two hours. The way the communicated with us and guided us through the whole process was amazing and was in the end the reason for us deciding to go with them. They didn't seem to be in a rush to sell their tours, instead they took a lot of time to explore our preferences and to find the best option for us. Asante sana for that!!We started our safari in Mombasa and after paying a small deposit to their German bank account they gave us the option of paying the large remaining amount on arrival. That was really convenient for us as well.

After arriving in Mombasa, we got to know the driver Said even before the actual safari. I feel like Said is the absolute best, as a person and as a tour guide. He was so friendly and welcoming that we felt at home from the veryt first moment. On safari, he spotted every animal from far and it seemed like there was no animal he didn't know, no location he couldn't tell a story about and no terrain he couldn't master. As it had rained a lot before our safari and the ground was very wet at times, we were happy for his experience and superb driving skills. For us, who didn't have as sharp eysight as him, he had nice binoculars on the car. Although people had warned us that the heavy rains might make it difficult to see animals, we saw way more than we could have ever expected. I think Cheetah was the only one we didn't see, but that one we will surely spot on our next safari! :))

We can with all our hearts recommend KingTomondo for everyone looking for a reliable, super friendly and well organized tour company. It was our first time, but definitely not our last.

The best adventure
5/5

Communication with Lisa was excellent and Major was a fantastic guide and experienced driver. The safari tour itself was well planned and we had a great time both on the road and in lodges (Sentrim Tsavo East and Sentrim Amboseli). Unfortunately, some of the animals went outside the parks due to earlier rainfall but we still saw a lot of them as well as beautiful sunsets and Mount Kilimanjaro. I would definitely recommend it!
