An amazing Couple Safari - thank you Ann, Wilfred and the whole Extra Miles Unique Adventures Team!!
When I first thought about taking my girlfriend to Kenya to experience an African Safari together, I didn’t know where to start. Fortunately, Google was there to help, so I found out about safaribookings.com where there host a huge number of companies offering Safari trips of a variety of itineraries, features, lengths and budget. To narrow down my search I used 3 main criteria: customer reviews, itinerary and cost. Based on these criteria, I shortlisted a handful of companies and then contacted 3 of them that seemed most appealing to me. Only one of them (Extra Miles Unique Adventures) offered a “Couple Safari” that I knew of, which intrigued me, but I wanted to remain unbiased. All three companies responded quite quickly with the information requested and price quotes. However, I was impressed by the professionalism, the attention to detail and the clarity and promptness of the communication from Extra Miles. So, I decided to settle down on them, and I am so glad that I did!
Ann, a Tour Consultant with Extra Miles, was my main point of contact. I cannot thank her enough for all the help she provided over a period of over 2.5 months! Ann was always very prompt, clear and courteous in her communications – whether via email or via WhatsApp (which is what we mostly used starting shortly before the tour and throughout the duration of the tour). She was very helpful in customizing the tour for us – from modifying the itinerary to adding lodging/hotel/airport transfer in Nairobi before and after the Safari, while being mindful of my budget and other considerations. Since the tour was advertised as a “Couple Safari”, I wanted to know what it actually meant. She told me that there was going to be some decoration/romantic arrangements in the lodge that we will stay at Maasai Mara at the beginning of the trip, and I was satisfied with that. However, to my surprise (and to my girlfriend’s surprise, of course), it was much more than that! We were very happy with all the fun and romantic ideas Ann and the team incorporated into our experience, which made our very first African Safari as pleasant and memorable as we could have ever imagined! I’m not going to get into the detail of the various things they arranged for us just to avoid spoiling the surprise of the future Safari participants

Beyond expectations!
I warmly recommend this agency. The communication with tour consultant Ann was excellent from the start. She also called me every day during the trip to check if was fine.
The guide/driver was pleasant company and very professional. He has a lot of knowledge about the animals, birds, trees... We've seen so many animals!
I stayed at Ashnil Samburu Camp in Buffalo Springs, which is a nice lodge with excellent food. The Flamingo Hills Camp in Nakuru is very beautiful. They gave me the best comfortable tent from where I could see the buffalo's grazing.
I would certainly travel with Extra Miles Unique Adventures again!

Highly Personalized & Warm Service
We loved the warmth & affection extended to us during our trip to Kenya. The staff were very efficient & humane. The planning was well thought through & extra mile showcased great flexibility, in case we wanted few fine tuning. We left Kenya with beautiful memories, thanks to the flora & fauna of the country & Extra Miles Team.

Mr. James was wonderful. He was on time, and he was an expert in explaining about animas and birds.
Professional and excellent services. The tour was worthy the price. The tour company prepared an inclusive itinerary. Extra Miles picked us on time from Nairobi to Amboseli, spent a night at Kibo Camp which was great. Next morning we sent off to Tsavo West, Kilaguni Serena Hotel was magnificent. Third day with our tour operator, he drove us to Diani beach(Baobab Resort) where we spent the rest of the week. Melissa the owner of the company and her management group welcomed us with travel gifts and explained the itinerary before setting off for the trip. Melissa kept in touch to ensure our trip was good. Thanks to Melissa, Frazin and James for being humble and kind. I can highly recommend Extra Miles Unique Adventures for their services.

We went extra miles, enjoyed unique adventures, and felt indeed part of a family!
Preparation: Excellent! We were in regular contact with Flouzine and Judy, who were extremely helpful and professional, to finalize the safari plan, timings, hotel arrangements, etc. - all what was promised was delivered 100%.
Safari: Fred, the driver, is THE BEST guide we could have for game drives! Incredibly knowledgable about all what we saw, did his best to show us all big 5 animals, plus he drove us safely and with so much fun to all places. He really adds to the experience!
Accommodation: All hotels/lodges we stayed at were top! The amenities and facilities, the friendly and always-smiling staff there, the cuisine - everything contributed to offering us the best services and comfort. And all at great cost!
Other: Melissa, Ruth, and all the rest of the team spent also time with us and showed us what Kenyan hospitality means - we really felt we are members of a good-hearted African family.
