What a great tour guide and safari experience!
5/5

We feel fortunate to have contracted with Kiboko Tours and Travel for our 8 day Kenya Game Drives. Our driver, Samuel, picked us up at our hotel got us out-of-town and into the beautiful landscapes outside Nairobi. His knowledge of the areas, geography and animals were beyond our expectations. We were very pleasantly surprised at the lodges and camps that Kiboko had arranged. We found the food quality and selection excellent in every camp and this exceeded our expectations as well.

KIBOKO is ok and Gibson really accurate and reliable.
4/5

Kiboko Tour is sirius and reliable, and we won't forget never our safari. Gibson (Kiboko representative for customers) is always available, nice and accurate, and was able to match our needs through an accurate and kind comunication and good choices.
Paul (drive/guide) is a really smiling/nice person and staying with him has been really nice. Just one point: our feeling is that he well knows Masai Mara and lake Nokuru, but, unfortunately, much less Tsavo East and Ovest, where we "paid" that and his lack of network there.
My family loved staying with him, but, one suggestion for him, less time spent using his own mobile phone and try to catch more informations into the park.
I looked for a small local tour operator, able to take care our plan, and with Gibson got it.
I raccomend KIBOKO.

Sam is a professional; on time, knowledgeable and friendly.
5/5

Kiboko Travels took us to the Masai Mara NP. Booking with Kiboko was easy and Sam communicated through WhatsApp effectively, with great rates you cannot find with massive tourist companies who advertise under chains.
As for our safari, Sam was on time, waiting outside for us as we were running late. We made it to the NP during rainy season so he got us to our hotel even when a road leading to the park was washed away. Getting into the NP and through e-citizen with Sam’s guidance was a breeze.
Once in, we started on our first safari of the 3 days we were with him. We saw a plethora of animals just on the first game drive and were up bright and early, out of the hotel at 6am for the early morning and early afternoon drive. Sam picked up our hotel lunch for us that morning so we spread it under an acacia tree and snacked in the open mara.
Sam was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and the birds. If he spots something, he will back up and explain what we’re seeing. He answers all questions and listens to your feedback.
Overall, this is a great value travel safari company who values their clients. We will travel with Kiboko again.

Best tour operator in Kenya!
5/5

Sam is INCREDIBLE!! I cannot recommend him highly enough!! Driving with Sam was an amazing value for money, and we will definitely book him again on our next trip to Kenya!

1) Professionalism: it’s obvious that Sam has years of driving experience. He expertly navigated through traffic and bumpy roads, and I felt so safe with his driving. His english is perfect, and he communicated very clearly about everything. He was reliable and was always on time or early!

2) Game drive: Sam knew where to find all of the animals, and he made sure to give me the best experience, waiting to watch the animals interact in their natural environment to get to know their nature and personalities.

3) Friendliness: Sam was super hospitable and made sure I was well taken care of. He shared information about Kenyan food and culture, and I can say he is a friend after getting to know him!

Excellent!
5/5

Great value for money. The experience surpassed all expectations. Sam, skillfully navigated the wild terrain. Most impressively, his ability to tell the way of life of the animals and insight added a layer of depth that made this safari truly unforgettable.

Friendly, knowledgeable, trustworthy service
5/5

We have had many very pleasant experiences with Samuel as our driver, most recently in Feb’24. His safari van is clean and comfortable, with a pop-up roof for game viewing and all-wheel drive for the tough spots. Each seat is a “captain’s chair” with a full row in the very back, seating 6 adult guests comfortably. Samuel is an excellent guide with many interesting tidbits of information to share, many obscure facts, often quite humourous. We have travelled a lot in Kenya and have found Samuel to be the best driver to Meru National Park, Nairobi National Park and the Maasai Mara. He is punctual and organized and the prices are very fair. Highly recommended
