A Amazing Journey
It's a tough trip. You need to stay in the jeep for serval hours every day for searching the wild animals. The driver-guide will try to find out the animals. It's worth for us to do this.

Thank you for remarking on your value-for-money tour package, which you declare was worth it!
With the determination of your relentless tour guide & driver, you were able to search & find the animals. Also, the tough & reliable 4x4 Land Cruiser Jeep cruised you through the rugged terrain of a safari adventure.
We agree that time is spent in the safari vehicle, as we search for animals...☺ In Kenya, roads are narrow and may not be well maintained. The roads immediately leading to the National Parks and Game Reserves are rough.
Asante for your well-received feedback!

Kind, organized, and provided a great experience
My friend and I loved our safari. We enjoyed having our own private vehicle and a very kind driver who took such good care of us.
We saw beautiful scenery in 2 locations (Tsavo and Amboseli) over the course of 3 days, and so many animals we can't count them all!
We were disappointed to arrive late to the Rhino Sanctuary and miss out on the chance to enter. This was one reason I chose the specific accommodation in that area. We would have appreciated being consulted regarding the changes made to our itinerary that led to us missing this opportunity. BUT everything else was seamless and provided us with an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended.

Wonderful 5 days Safari Maasai Mara & Amboseli; perfect organisation, excellent guide, great value.
Great experience to visit both Maasai Mara & Amboseli; although not the full big five we have seen a lot of animals. Starting with the tour operator; from start to end a very professional organisation. Patricia, our contact person in headquarters Nairobi is driving for maximum customer satisfaction. The safari itself, the car was a 4 x 4 Land Cruiser Pop-up Top Jeep; car well maintained, clean, bottles with water available, enough binoculars, luggage stored in the back and wrapped in blankets to keep the dust out. Our first accommodation, the small and intimated luxury Losokwan Camp; very friendly staff, meals served outside combining food and excellent views. Improvement needed is the shower (you get a bucket with 20 litre hot water). Our second accommodation was the large AA-lodge close to Amboseli; very good shower, lay-out of the lodge very nice but missing the charm and intimacy of the Losokwan camp. Emmanuel our guide, was very knowledgeable; he does not only know which animals you see but was sharing a lot of detailed information on facts and their habits. He knows where and how to spot them. He brings the jeep close enough to the animals to get a very good look but at the same time respecting the habitat of the animals. Animals didn't seem to be disturbed by our presence. Apart from being an excellent guide he was pleasant company and a safe driver.
Why not a 5* rating? This has to do with the package. We booked Maasai Mara and Amboseli with a transfer by train from Emali to Mombasa. We had to go back from Maasai Mara to Nairobi and then to Amboseli, driving for 12 hours, with no time left for a game drive. Safety wise it is not desired to have one person driving that much. On our last day we had to catch the train from Emali to Mombasa early in the morning (only one train per day) so again no time for game drive. Of the 5 day safari effectively there were only 3 days with game drives. Those 3 days were excellent, definitely 5* !!!!. The information on, especially, the 3rd day (1 full day driving without game drive) should have been provided by Kenya Safaris during booking. If we would have known this upfront we would have changed the package to balance game drives and transfers better.

Good communication, guide and accommodations, but need some improvements
1- Communication: fast and clear from the beginning till our arrival by Patricia.
It is better to have an intermediate (middle of safari) communication with the boss directly if in case we would like to clarify or modify Something. At the end of safari, the boss has a phone conversation, but it's the end of safari without really an effect on our safari.
2- Accommodations: Hotels were very nice. completely satisfied.
3- Guide: Very good at his job and could detect the animals very good. Very good driver. Not very communicative (part of the personality, so not a big deal). However, not very good at English. We had some difficulties to understand him or we need to repeat our questions in another way.
4- Safari tour: We had 7 days safari from Amboseli. The plan is nice and covers a lot of parks. HOWEVER, it misses early morning or late evening visits of the park, when in fact the animals are more active, rather than sleeping under bushes.
In fact, each day we were the last Jeep leaving the hotel to go to park (around 8am) or first one to return to the hotel (around 6:30pm). We entered the park, while seeing other jeeps coming back from pre-breakfast visit. For Amboseli and Masai Mara the guide told us it close at 6:30, however, online I checked and Masai Mara is open 24hrs. Couple of time we returned the hotel at the time when we exactly could see the actions (like lion was moving, éléphants were coming back, ...)
The last day, the guide told us there is no program and then I showed him that in our agenda it is written "pre-breakfast view". Then he agreed to have breakfast and leave hotel around 7am and have a short view (1.5hr).
This part is very important as watching animals sleeping during day is very close to our experience with Zoo. The point of safari is seeing animals in real action.
5- It would be great to have a binocular in the Jeep.
Thanks for the planning the tour. I recommend you for Safari, but with some modifications in the planning.

Everything was well organized
The communication was very good, everything was very well organized. All the lodges we stayed have been very good. We visited six parks in nine days, that was a bit stressfull. Next time we would visite two or three parks in nine days. Our guide was a very good driver but as a guide he was only sufficient. But over all it was a good Safari, we saw lot of Kenya, animals, countryside. nature. We went back home with many good impressions. We would book Natural World Kenya Safaris again.

Would use Natural World Kenya Safaris again
Everything from booking to pick up to the actual safari went very smoothly. Every person I came in contact with was very professional and courteous. I was able to customize my tour to my convenience. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly and assured everyone's safety. Natural World Kenya Safaris will be my first point of contact for a safari on my next trip to Kenya.

Amazing experience. Kenyan parks have the best wild life and landscape views.
We were 3 friends and we did a 3 days safari at Tsavo East and Amboseli Park. We loved the landscape in Amboseli with the Kilimanjaro and all the animals in both parks. Our guide was very friendly, fun and very attentive to everything we needed or asked for. Previous communications to arrange all the details, hotels reservations and the guide's explanations were clear and easy. The hotels inside the parks and the safari vibe exceeded our expectations. We only suffered a bit the traffic of the main roads driving to Nairobi but we definitely recommend this safari tour and the services offered by this company.
