If you are looking forward to a tour in kenya, contact Bateleur Eagle safaris only!
First, i was served by Newton - highly recommend him. He always made sure to check in if we were okay and if we needed anything more from his office. I mean, he handled us like we were his only clients on high peak season! He was always concerned and really determined to make sure we had the most of our trip. If you call bateleur safaris for a trip, please ask to be served by Newton. Simply the best!
Then there was peku. He was our guide driver. My God did we have fun! He took the shortest while safe routes to our destinations. He helped us get huge discounts whenever we went shopping. He was super effective and efficient at the same time! And he has the best sense of humor. Always going above and beyond for us to make the most out of our trip you'd think we are related. He was super helpful. Extra 5 star

An amazing and most enjoyable experience from the very start of my journey
I was very fortunate to find this very nice company and I knew that I was in very good hands from my first email contact with Mathew and Newton. They took meticulous care with planning my trip (1 week) and were so flexible and accommodating to all my tweaks to the itinerary even when I reached Kenya and a few changes were needed. They warmly welcomed me to Kenya on Day 1, then met me again before the safari and finally on Day 7 to say goodbye and have a debrief. I spent two days on the wonderful Diani beach and four days on safari. I had an amazing time and was fortunate to see plenty of wildlife in the various National Parks that we visited. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank my excellent driver and guide, Jackson for making the safaris so enjoyable. Also thanks to Daniel who met me at Nairobi airport. I had originally only intended to spend three days in Kenya but owing to amendments to other travel plans, managed to spend a full week thereby experiencing both the coast and the National Parks. The hotels, lodges and other facilities were of a very high standard throughout. I hope I will have an opportunity to meet all my rafikis from Bateleur Eagle Safaris as soon as another opportunity arises in the near future. Asante sana

Kenya was a magical Experience
I found Bateleur Eagle through a referral. And I am so happy that the recommendation was made. Every step from the time of booking to being picked up from our hotel all the way to when we were dropped off at the airport was a 5 star experience.
I decided to celebrate my birthday in Kenya. Originally the booking was just for myself, but a month before the trip, My mother decided to join me and then I changed my dates. Still they accommadated every single change without any hassle. But the real magic of the trip was the masai mara. I can not even put into words the experience my mother and I had on the trip. Amos our guide was so knowledgeable on EVERY SINGLE animal we saw. He knew the terrain and mara like the back of his hand. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM! We lucked out, because we were the only ones on the tour, it became more of a private tour. So it was so amazing! I felt like I was in the animal kingdom. haha
Mathew and his team were amazing. They knew that it was my birthday, so at the lodge we chose for our stay ( LOYK MARA CAMP) HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! They made a special birthday cake for me and had a whole traditional birthday song and dance. I felt the love and it was very much appreciated.
Side note if its in your budget, I would highly recommend doing the hot air balloon over the mara. It really is a once in a lifetime experience. And you're really going to feel like your in the lion king.
Honestly you won't find a better company than Bateleur Eagle Safaris especially for the value we got. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Kenyan custom safari created to perfection
Bateleur (Mathew) was brilliant in compiling my custom safari after hearing what I wanted to see and experience! They were able to provide options, as the trip continued to change, since it was contingent on another trip I was on beforehand. Also, as the world dealt with pandemic challenges, Mathew was able to alternate the locations and timings based on the different time periods and still pull it off flawlessly. I will certainly go with Bateleur in my future travels to Africa and would highly recommend to those who are looking for the experience to do the same.

great experience, perfect safari
I found the bateleur eagles after doing some research on different website. As I wasn't sure about the price, I requested a tender on different tour operator. They were ok on price but the quality of the service was much better than others ( some providing minivan instead of 4X4 jeep). In short words, all was great they took us from Nairobi airport and we finished in Diani beach and spent 6 days with Jackson our driver/guide.
perfect organisation, good car, excellent driver guide and on top of that we saw so many animals... just perfect.
Thanks again Bateleur!

Fantastic itinerary and amazing guide
There are many options for safari in Kenya but I'm confident Bateleur Eagle is the best.
When we were out on our game drive we came across many other companies. It was clear to me that the quality of the Land Cruiser we had was the best among all the vehicles we saw.
Furthermore, we had an incredible driver and guide named Amos. He was very skilled at navigating the reserve. He didn't hesitate when the weather turned bad and he always got us safely back to our hotel. He was also incredibly knowledgeable about the animals, being able to quickly identify the gender and age of an animal by looking at it. He was also very good at spotting and tracking animals so by the end of our 5 days we had seen most all animals that you can come across in the reserve.
Finally the accommodations were superb. Bateleur Eagle Safaris partner with some truly spectacular camps and hotels so we can rest well for next days drive.
100% recommend Bateleur Eagle Sæfari and will be going on trips with then again in the future.

super helpful and informative
Newton is just a superb guy. He helped us to build and book the trip of a lifetime. I can't say enough about how easy he made everything. The drivers, the suggestions, the care was better than I could have expected. No doubt I will give Newton a call if we ever come back to the region! Give Newton and Bateleur Eagle Safaris a chance to help you build something special in a very special part of the world. Thanks again Bateleur Eagle Safaris team!

Amazing once in a lifetime experience!
Had a great time with Bateleur Eagle Safaris. Services they provided were top notch. They provided experienced and knowledgeable guides which made the safaris even more interesting and fun. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five and many more animals. Would definitely recommend them to everyone reading this.
