Amazing Kenya Safari tour with Africa Marvel!
5/5

A wonderful adventure, made possible by the awesome Africa Marvel Tours team! I started planning the trip by contacting several tour operators. Before any other company even responded to my queries, I had already exchanged multiple messages with Perminus from Africa Marvel. Perminus provided helpful tips (and detailed itinerary proposals), always answering our questions almost immediately (amazing how timely his responses were!). He made excellent hotel and itinerary recommendations in line with our preferences, while keeping our budget in mind. With Perminus’ help, we settled on a 6-day trip to Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli.
Once we arrived in Nairobi, Perminus continued to provide assistance even before our safari started.
Once on safari, Joe was an awesome guide and safe driver, and a great travel companion for our family. He recommended (and then facilitated) additional things along the way (e.g. a visit to Navaisha) and he made sure that we saw the Big Five (and many more animals) by taking us to the right places at the right times. Bottom line: We would recommend Africa Marvel to anyone planning a Kenya safari adventure!

Amazing 3 days
5/5

All the communication and planning was so easy with Perminus replying to emails so fast and we were able to plan safari what fits perfectly our family with three kids under 10 years.

Our driver Boniface was really friendly and a good driver we felf safety all way. He was taking us to nice spots we were able to see so many different animals and he was telling us about animals and answering for all our questions. Everything went just as planned. It was an amazing two nights in Masai Mara.

I would for sure choose Africa Marvel tours again for the next trip and I can recommend it to everybody.

Very good and honest operator
5/5

We had the opportunity to come to Kenya and the chance to choose this excellent tour operator.
They were very responsive to all our messages. We had a gift at the beginning of the trip which follow me everywhere now and remind me of Kenya.
We choose a 5 days trip with 3 national parks ( Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli). The selection for the hotel was perfect for all the trip.
Our driver Ronny was amazing. His driving was safe, and we can feel that he is passionate about his job. We had such a wonderful time and memories thanks to him.

I can only recommend you this tour.

Great experience, best tour guide ever
5/5

We did a 6-day Safari end of november. Masai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli and Taita Hills.

Africa Marvel gives great value for money. Good en fast email communication with the office. Joe, our driver was the best ever. Knows all the good spots for game watching and tells just enough information. Very friendly and drives very good.

Resorts were great, Enkokok (Masai Mara) is a bit basic, Kibo (Amboseli) was amazing.

Note: Taita / Salt Lick after rain-season is a waste of money with 0 game.

Africa Marvel Tours, and Joe our guide, were everything we expected and hoped for.
5/5

We found Africa Marvel Tours easy to deal with right from the planning stage. They provided someone to help us sort out logistics for the few days before the Safari started (we had decided to arrive in Nairobi early, to acclimatize and be sure to not be delayed by potential flight delays.) Our guide, Joe, picked us up at the hotel on the first day of the Safari - everything went smoothly as planned. The accommodations at Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli were all wonderful choices - lovely accommodations and great food. (We loved the "tents".) Joe was attentive "just enough" and not overly, but always happy to discuss options and plans for the following day. He was a great driver and guide, treated the animals with respect, and was very pleasant to be with for the week. I would definitely ask for Joe as our guide were I to do this adventure again. He was knowledgable and paid attention to what the other drivers were reporting so we could take in as many sightings as possible. It was an epic experience! I highly recommend Africa Marvel Tours, and Joe specifically as a driver/guide.

Amazing safaris which exceeded our expectations!
5/5

We had an amazing time seeing so many of God’s uniquely created animals! Joe, our driver, was so informative and really made an effort to tailor our Safari experience. Joe always tried to position our 4x4 vehicle to get fantastic photos! We were blessed to see the Big 5, over a dozen lions, a clan of 14 hyenas and a troop of baboons with babies up close. I highly recommend upgrading to a 4x4 rather than a van especially in the Masai Mara. Perminus was very professional and timely in his responses when booking and planning the details of our trip. He and Joe even coordinated a last minute change to our itinerary which we thoroughly enjoyed.

Africa Marvel Tours has a strong experience expertise and makes your dream a reality.
5/5

Amazing & unique trip. I travelled a lot in my life and this safari road trip was definitively the best experience to discover a different world. Colors and animals are definitively the smile of nature. Africa Marvel Tours is very flexible to customize your program to meet your expectations. On top of the Safari tours to discover animals (we got the chance to see the big 5), I wanted to add an human experience with Maasai for my kids. How grateful was it to interact with Maasai to get a glimpse into their culture and their unique way of life. I loved every day program going from Tsavo West & East to Amboseli to get the chance to see the Africa’s highest mountain, Mt Kilimanjaro (5km view from Tanzania boarder). Amazing game viewing drives to the most famous national parc in Tsavo & Amboseli ending with a sunrise game viewing drive in a private wildlife sanctuary across the forested Taita hills, perfect place to look for lions. Proposed accommodations recommended by Marvel Tours meet my expectations to discover unusual places like Kibo safari camp Amboseli and Sarova Salt Lick Game Lodge. Without forgetting the reactivity of my contact Perminus on daily basis and the very well experienced driver Mike. I strongly recommend Africa Marvel Tours for your future safari trip in Africa.

Reliable and communicative
5/5

The tour was really good. Marvel Tours was very responsive to all questions and able to gear the tour towards our preferences. The guide Robert was very nice and patient, and responded to all our wishes. He was much better than another guide we had with another tour provider in Maasai Mara. Would highly recommend both the organisation and the guide!

Excellent service!
5/5

We went for a tour 3 days Maasai Mara and our driver was George. The whole experience was amazing from the beginning. Perminus was great, always responding emails or messages immediately, the place that we stayed was beautiful and all the staff were very helpful and friendly. George was great, he made sure we enjoy the Safari experience, we saw many lions, elephants, Tsavo Cat, buffalo’s and many more! I highly recommend this tour company! Thank you Perminus and George, we will definitely come back next season.

Everything was fantastic.
5/5

Our guide Ronnie was amazing. Very kind, worried about us, about finding all the animals, that we could take good photos, etc. The hotels, especially the one in Masai Mara, were incredible, clean, good food, excellent accommodations and service. It was a tremendous experience that we will never forget. The park we liked the least was Amboselli, there was a lot of dust and the animals were very far away.
