Excellent First Time Experience!
5/5

We booked the 5 day, 4 night safari and everything about it was fantastic. We had never been to Africa and I was a bit clueless as what to book and for how long etc but after a simple email to Silas who works in the office, he just asked for some rough dates and duration and tailor made a safari for us that took a night in Amboseli, a night at Lake Naivasha and then 2 nights in Masai Mara.

Our guide/driver, Simon, picked us up and was truly exceptional. His knowledge and help were spot on and we only felt like we weren't asking him enough! He told us all about the Kenyan culture, tribes, history and of course everything about the wild and animals we saw.

We opted for standard accommodation and it was amazing. The camps/lodges we stayed at were really nice, all with pools, good showers and great facilities - a bar :)

No complaints whatsoever and fully recommend Safari Update Travels and Simon our guide."

The best tour company
5/5

We did a 3-day, 2-night safari with Safari Update Travels to Masai Mara. They are awesome. They were very friendly and accommodating. They put us in a nice camp and the driver went out of his way to help us spot a ton of animals in the park. (The only one we didn't see was the rhino, but that's hard to spot in the Mara anyways). He even helped us park the car in a way that allowed us to take nice selfies with the animals! Safari Update Travels made my trip to Kenya one to remember!

We recently came back from Masai Mara Safari in Kenya. A big thank you to Safari Update Travels for planning and ensuring our safari was a success. from the Start everything was smooth. Communication they respond to emails quickly they were ready to assist any given time especially now that with Covid-19 new regulations are in place. We stayed at a budget camp just outside masai mara. The tents were ensuit with clean bathrooms and comfortable beds, we had no complain on their meals as we already knew before booking. We saw many animals including. Cheetah, lions, elephant, topis, zebras, giraffe, so many more, we also went to Mara to river where we found crocodiles and hippos.
Thank tou so much Silas for always checking on us to ensure we were comfortable while on the safari. We highly recommend them Safari Update Travels.

Fantastic Safari Experience!
5/5

I booked a solo trip to Masai mara for a 3 day safari with Safari update Travels. Silas was very very professional in the way he communicated and giving detailed information. He answered all the questions i asked being my first time on a safari I wanted to get every detail.
He booked for me Sopa lodge in Masai Mara. Very nice rooms and good i say. The staff their we so accommodating. We went for game drives for all the 3days and words can not express what an exciting experience it was.. from the Landscape, wildlife masai mara, our driver guide James. It such a magical experience. I enjoyed every moment of it. I can highly recommend safari update Travels going to a safari in Kenya. Keep up the good work!

5/5

This company's staff is kind, caring and especially well organized. They planned every detail, At the camps, the staff couldn't do any more than they did to make our stay comfortable, and ensure that we were safe and happy.

We were lucky to observe among other animals, a pride of lions, a family of cheetahs, elephants, zebras, many birds and a leopard eating his kill.
Safari Update Travels are environmentally friendly.
If you use another company, you are missing your best opportunity to have a great time.

Best Safari guide
5/5

Would highly recommend Safari Update Travels. We were on a private safari to Amboseli with our amazing driver Sam. He was so knowledgeable and made sure were were happy with every stage of the journey. His insights into even the most minute detail of animals behavior opened up our safari experience to a different level. The organization was superb and the land-cruiser was the ideal vehicle for the rough roads.
