AMAZING 2 night weekend safari from Nairobi
We had the most incredible time on safari, it exceeded our expectations and we were so lucky with what we saw. Highlights include – cheetahs, multiple lions, watching a lion kill and eat a wilderbeest, the end of a wilderbeest river crossing, lots of elephants up close, a crocodile out of water and a black rhino!
Peter, our driver, was absolutely fantastic – very professional, a safe driver, and a great tour guide.
Thank you so much for all your help and quick responses on organising.

Splendid 6 day Safari to Amboseli, Naivasha and Masai Mara
On this well organised Safari we saw a lot of exceptional wildlife. Booking was very easy and our special requests were accepted. Albert is a well experienced guide with a very good knowledge of animals and Kenya. He is also a safe and reliable driver. He found a good alternative to the bad road to Masai Mara. The comfortable loges were well chosen. We had a great time on this Safari organised by Natural World. We were glad to have a 4x4 Landcruiser as the roads inside the parks often were rough.

It was so impressive! We had a great 3 day-safari with Natural World Kenya Safaris in Masai Mara!
We had a great safari with Peter Nyamu. We saw a lot of beautiful animals during the 3 days. He knows a lot about the parc and all the animals and is a very good and safe driver. Also the food in our stay in hotel (luxe) was very well. The staff of the company (Pauline) replyed very soon and was very helpfull. We will really recommend it, only the visit to the Masai Village is a tourist trap. Don't go there if you want to see an authentic place.

Safari so good!
Just back from a wonderful Kenyan safari with Natural World. And I have no hesitation in giving them five well-deserved stars.
From the initial quote and the fine-tuning of the itinerary to the post-tour customer care by Humphrey and Caroline, this company was excellent.
Our superb driver Moses picked us up from our Nairobi hotel, the (upgraded) Land Cruiser full of wildlife guides and Moses' head full of the knowledge of 19 years as a safari tour guide.
He took us on a 5-night (bumpy - wear a sports bra, ladies!) road trip to Tsavo West, Amboseli, Lake Naivasha and the Masai Mara, and made it his personal mission to ensure we saw as much of Kenya's amazing fauna and flora as possible.
We managed four of the big five (no rhino sadly, but understandably) after a very determined day seeking out a leopard, and then spotting two!
We opted for Comfort-level accommodation, which was actually very, er... comfortable, though the first night's camp at Rhino Valley Lodge was very basic. But it made up for that with incredible panoramic views. The other camps were lovely and the food was very good too (with a special mention for Zebra Plains Mara Camp).
Crescent Camp at Lake Naivasha initially seemed as though it would be disappointing, as the lakeside was strewn with litter (one would think the camp might make an effort to clean up its lake front, even if it is public access), but the boat tour and walking safari on the island more than made up for this - as we strolled among the zebra and giraffe.
All in all, it was an amazing experience, and we have with wonderful memories and spectacular photographs to cherish.
Thank you to the team at Natural World Kenya Safaris, and Moses in particular.

You won't find a better safari company!
We booked two safaris through this company. The first was a four-day safari to Masai Mara in a 4x4 Land Cruiser; the second was a one-day safari to Hell's Gate & Lake Naivasha in a mini van. Both bookings were completed entirely online, although we made phone calls the day before the safari to ensure that there were no issues. We did not book the Hell's Gate safari until we returned from the Masai Mara trip.
The booking staff are quick to respond to emails, professional in providing details of the proposed safari, upfront about extra costs, and helpful in terms of special requests--we had two vegans in our group who were anxious about having their needs met. Payment was not directly through my credit card but through a PayPal like system called Pesapal. It worked without an issue. Duncan organized our Mara safari and Michelle the Hell's Gate safari.
For the first safari we requested George Mbugua, who turned out to be excellent. Not only was he great at spotting the animals, including a kill on our second day, but he was professional in respecting the animals. We saw everything except a rhino, (no one seemed to see one as they are rare and elusive), including numerous cheetah and lions. One lion was in a tree. We saw a leopard close up. However, we noticed some other companies' drivers interfering with the animals' movement. George clearly was opposed to such practices, as were we. George was always early for any meeting, and took steps to ensure our safety and comfort throughout the trip. We met other travellers with Natural World who reported similar experiences with their drivers. The 4x4 is worth the extra cost for game drive experiences.
We stayed at Enkorok camp in Masai Mara. It was an excellent budget choice, reviewed separately.
The trip to Hell's Gate was guided by Mike Kioko. This was in a minivan, as the trip didn't include game drives in a vehicle. Instead, we rode bikes through the park, hiked through the gorge, boated on the lake, and walked on Crescent Island. Essentially, Mike had to ensure we arrived at the designated times and arrange things with the other guides. He did so perfectly. Again, safety was most important. Note that on this trip you should bring some money to tip at least two additional guides.
We would highly recommend this trip. It gives you a chance to be active, although the hiking and riding might be too strenuous for some people. We saw a variety of wildlife on bike or foot, including giraffes and zebras crossing our paths very closely. Lunch at the Sopa Lodge was fantastic. The trip took a full 12.5 hours.
Natural World was an excellent choice. I can't really compare it to other agencies, as we didn't use them, but we have nothing but praise for this company. They even called after both trips to ensure that our safaris were great. The end of safari "gift" was very welcome icing on the cake of two fantastic experiences with this company.

Dream safari!!!
From beginning to end our Safari was absolutely fantastic! Our driver and guide, George, was super friendly and knowledgeable and he was a great fit for me and my husband’s trip. We did a private safari which was perfect for us. He let us choose what we want to do and where we wanted to go and how long we wanted to spend. Everything was perfectly arranged from the food the accommodations with good communication.

I can't imagine this experience without the magic of service from Natural World Kenya Safaris
Just finished a week ago our Safari with this company. We went through Kenya and Tanzania. Drivers were AWESOME. Always making an effort for us to watch all the animals. Ask for Thomas or Paul Mbaya in Kenia. they both are AMAZING!

They made sure we had the best expereince!
Since traveling to Kenya in and of itself is expensive, my friends and I chose the economy 5 day safari. We were all pleasantly surprised by the sleeping accommodations and dining provided. They made sure we were pleased with our service by calling twice during our safari and our driver, Peter, made sure we saw the big 5 and everything else we wanted to see. We could not have been more happy with our visit to Kenya and Natural World Safaris was a huge part of that. Thanks you! Plus, the gifts of shukas for all of us was a very nice added touch and a souvenir of our trip.
