Amazing and thought through
I was with one friend and our experience ze was amazing. We did a private safari via Nairobi-Amboseli-tsavo east to the coast for 2 nights.
Got to see many animals and stayed at well taken care of places.
Felt very safe with the accommodations and stops along the way we’re well thought through.
Very nice driver. Everything went smoothly.

Safari experience is higher than expectation
The safari with Explorers Wild Adventures is higher than our expectation. The experience in Kenya is amazing and unforgettable.
Our tour guide, David is nice, knowledgeable and helpful. In the game drive, David tried the best to discover animals for us. We saw many animals and many memorable scenes. David also shared a lot of information of animal, safari and Kenya to us. I will recommend Explorers Wild Adventures and David to my friends and family.
The accommodations are good. We feel welcome during the stay and the staff is helpful. Especially Lake Naivasha Sopa Lodge, beautiful environment, nice food, and we can closely see zebra and giraffe. Highly accommodated Lake Naivasha Sopa Lodge.

Overall an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
My partner and I booked a 7 day 6 night safari tour in Kenya with Explorer's Wild Adventures starting on the 3rd June and finishing on the 10th.
We were nervous because we'd never booked anything like this before and obviously it's a large amount of money to transfer to a foreign company. Communication could have been a bit more frequent, as we were anxious about being scammed, however we understand that the company was busy, possibly due to limited staffing, so took a bit longer to reply to our emails.
Once we were there however things got much better. Our driver, David, picked us up from our hotel and we were off to the races. Honestly we cannot fault David, he was very passionate, considerate, and make every effort to make sure we were comfortable and looked after.
Our first destination was Lake Nakuru. Our highlights included seeing both a black rhino and a family of white rhinos, a lioness hunting zebra, Rothschild' giraffes up close, and flamingos on the salt water lake.
Then our next two days were spent on the Masai Mara. We were lucky enough to see two cheetah brothers, and pride of lions eating a buffalo, and having a picnic under a tree inside the savannah. David was very much on it with his radio, communicating with other drivers, and getting us to the action. Just a word of warning, the chicken in the packed lunches here and at Amboseli (if with the AA Lodge) was VERY dry, obviously we had our expectations, but still, like DRY.
We then spent one day at Lake Navaisha, where we did a boat trip followed by a nature walk on the island. Our boat driver managed to lure an eagle up close by throwing a fish into the lake so we got to see it hunting. The island is a must-go in our opinion because you can see zebra, giraffe, wildebeast and water buck up close by foot, which is a very different experience to seeing them by car. They are used to people, I was literally within touching distance of a baby zebra.
Our last two days were spent in Amboseli, this is a smaller national park which is actually a good thing because it meant the concentration of animals felt a lot higher compared to the Masai Mara. We saw cheetah's stalking zebras here, but the main stars of the show were the large herds of elephants as they migrate between Mount Kilimanjaro and the swamps, and a very special hippo which comes out during the day and eats non stop, honestly we were within 1-2m of it and it did not care at all!
On the morning of the return journey we took an early morning walk. Again a very unique experience, being out on foot is a nice change to being stuck in the car all day. We got the see the sunrise and Mount Kilimanjaro without any clouds obscuring the peak. Our guide Julius showed us the different tracks of wild animal species and we manage to spot some baby giraffes, which we hadn't manage to see before, as apparently this area specifically was where mother's hide their calves. Just be careful to bring higher heeled boots if possible or just wear sandals without socks like our guide, as there are plants which spit out their seeds, which cling to socks etc, and they are quite thorny!
We finished with a meal of local chicken with chapati, fried vegetables and chicken soup, honestly our best meal of the week, and as per Kenyan customs we gave David a healthy tip for his services, very much well deserved. We got dropped off at our hotel in Nairobi and then he gave us an extra life to the local Galleria to do some shopping.
Overall I highly recommend this trip and experience, and if he's available ask for David. June is some ways is better than July in my opinion as it's not as hot, as there is far less competition for the action (5-15 cars compared to 30+ cars I've been told?). Obviously though the great migration is a special spectacle which only starts late June early July.

Very professional, responsive and accommodating
Great experience which would definitely recommend. We went to Amboseli park in April for two nights and half day and the itinerary was great. Our hotel (on the medium range) was perfect, exactly what we needed it. Martin, our guide, was very knowledgeable, always on time, and with great taste in music!

Absolute amazing. No complains what so ever

Well organised with reliable information, good driver, great time.
We had a great Safari experience. We were picked up punctually from our Airbnb in Nairobi and went first to Amboseli. Our driver was great. We saw lots of elephants, some hippos and buffaloes in Amboseli and had a nice view of the Kilimanjaro. Then we drove to Tsavo east and saw giraffes and our absolute highlight was a lion and four lionesses early in the morning. Afterwards we were driven to Diani beach. All worked out well, I can highly recommend this tour operator!

Professionalism
I went on this three-days safari for USD 540 each person, and it was a great experience. The company organized it very well, and we had the best driver possible: Zachary Omondi. He did a great effort on making sure we didn't miss out any animal around. We also enjoyed talking to him. we had such interesting conversations along the way!
