Great experience in Tsavo east & taita hills
We booked a 3 day tour going to Taita hills and Tsavo east. We chose this specific because we wanted to stay in the salt lick lodge for 1 night. This was a really good experience and we had the chance to spot a lot of elephants and other animals at the water pool. Our second night we spent in Tsavo east and also this was a very nice accomodations with a swimming pool and views on the national park. Rooms and food were great at both places.
The game drives itself were also really nice. We were able to spot lions, cheetahs, elephants, antilopes, gazelles, giraffes, zebra's, etc. Our guide Mike really tried his best to show us as many animals as possible. He also shared a lot of information with us about the animals, the parks and Kenya in general. It was a very good experience.
Be aware that Tsavo east is a very big park and there are a lot of areas that are not reachable by car so you need to be more lucky to be able to spot the animals from up close than in other places. But it's better for the animals this way and the nature and views in this park are really beautiful.
I would definitely recommend this trip.

Amazing 3 Day Safari
We just want to say what an Amazing guide Mike is, he made sure we saw so many incredible animals and felt nothing was ever too much during the game viewing drives. Mike has an incredible knowledge of the animals and the parks and always made sure we were comfortable. I highly recommend Africa Marvel and always request for Mike as your guide.

The trip of our lifetime!
Myself and my husband had the time of our lives on this trip.
The Safari/Lake Nakuru exceeded our expectations and that was thanks to JOHN who made it happen:)
He has a wealth of knowledge which he shared with us and never missed an animal to see - we saw thw Big 5(the ugly 5 :-D) and everything in between.
His positive and caring attitude towards not only us but mainly for the animals was truly evident throughout the time we spent with him. We love his respect (unlike many other guides) for the animals crossing giving them time and way/switching the engine off and taking the time to observe the nature around us.
Both Tent accomondation in Masai Mara & Lake Nakuru Lodge @ Lake Nakuru were excellent with great selection of food bot different yet enjoyable in their own right.
We were already discussing with John that one day we would love to do it again with the kids when they are bigger and would ask for John.
Thanks again and good luck with the business.

Africa Marvel provided a worry-free safari experience that was beyond our expectations!
Africa Marvel Tours was a pleasure to work with. Communication was always good. Any request for information was quickly answered by Perminus and Zunira. The website provides a lot of information, as well: suggested packing lists, FAQs, etc. We did have to ask for information, at times, pre-trip, but it was always provided promptly. During the course of our trip, Perminus met us in Nairobi to give us a preview. I had ongoing communication with Zunira before the trip by email, and during the trip, she checked in regularly by email and What's App.
The 12-day safari of Kenya and Tanzania was spectacular. Our guides were experienced and knew where to look so that we could see the best of what each park had to offer. Many other people complained of not seeing animals, or not up close. We saw up close elephants, giraffes, antelope, 1000s of wildebeest, monkeys, lion hunts, leopard kills, cheetahs, hippos, etc. Everyday was something new!
Our accommodations were varied and always comfortable. Food was always good, and the settings were varied from luxury resort settings to tented unfenced safari camp in the Serengeti. The staff were always polite and accommodating, "Hakuna Matata!" Our trip was moderately priced, as compared with other trips, but the level of service that we got from Africa Marvel and the staff at the accommodations was deluxe. It is a little scary to send money overseas to a company that you do not know, but Zunira made it so much easier to trust the experience. Once we arrived at the airport, everything worked like clockwork! Highly recommend!

Great 5-days safari experience!
Booked the trip on relatively short notice (3 weeks ahead) based on some internet research and SafariBookings reviews.
The upfront communication with the Marvel Tours booking office was smooth and the immediate feedback and advice on individual tour options was triggering my choice for Africa Marvel Tours amongst others.
From the pick-up upon arrival at Jomo Kenyatta Airport to the drop off at our hotel in Nairobi at the end of the tour, we were in good hands of our driver and tour guide John. The trip was truly memorable for the entire family and our kids (10 and 5 years of age) had a great time.
5-days, including Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha & Mount Longonot is a great mix of different nature, flora and fauna.

Very nice safari, good choice of best lodges
Very nice safari, good choice of best lodges. We've managed to see so many animals thanks to our guide/driver Ian. Ian was very helpful and pleasant all other the trip. I strongly recommend Africa Marvel Tour, probably the best choice for the price. Communication with the desk was also very good before and during the trip. you can customize your trip with some extra activities like horse riding and bike self tour for example.

GREAT Safari
Africa Marvel Tours provide us an unforgettable 3days 2 nights safari in Tsavo east and Salt Lick. We saw many wild animals in their natural enviroment and we need to thanx also our guide Mike who makes everything possible(sometimes impossible too) for us to find and see those amazing animals we were looking for. Except safari we spent also graetful time in Ashnil Aruba Lodge and Salt Lick Lodge where we found nice accomodation with delucious foods. Really great time in Tsavo.
