Amazing
5/5

One of my favorite trips to date. Our safari planner, Steve, was beyond amazing in confirming everything we wanted. He provided helpful information about getting the Kenyan evisa, Covid testing after our safari, and anything else we needed. He was professional and always reached out to ensure everything was going well even after our safari ended and until we turned home. Our safari driver, Abubakar, was the ABSOLUTE best, and chatting with him throughout our game drive was a great time. Abu was amicable, timely, and helpful!! We saw 4 of the Big 5 (no rhino sighting) plus many more animals. Abu's ability to spot animals far off in the distance was impressive. Getting to see 3 leopards (which are usually elusive animals) and the hippos at the hippo pool was a nice treat. Abu is knowledgeable about animals and various subjects. Even when our truck got stuck in the mud, he was calm and made sure we felt comfortable until we got assistance.

Mara Serena was a beautiful lodge with gorgeous views to stay. It was also a nice surprise to get picked up and dropped off at the airport before and after the safari. We would love to return for an extended trip and have Abu as our guide again. I would definitely recommend this company to my family and friends.

A very friendly, educated tour driver
5/5

The most educational safari we had. Driver was very friendly and helpful in all areas. My children enjoyed the whole safari with very comfortable landcruiser. We saw and learnt about most of the kenyan wildlife in the Mara.

Hands on in excellent service delivery and attentiveness to clients needs and requirements
5/5

An amazing first time safari experience in a tented camp. Our friendly driver/guide Ndara was great. An excellent scouter for animal sightings, he is knowledgeable about wildlife in the park. Also got to learn alot on birds, Secretary bird, Saddle-billed stork, Hamercop, White Heroine, Egyptian goose just to name a few, the list is endless. Lastly, enjoyed our stay at Elangata Olerai, the food was to die for, lots of gratitude to Chef Steve and his team, the meals buffet, wide varied selections and a chance to sample a bonfire dinner with the Maasais at night and getting to know them, wonderful indeed. Appreciate all, thanks very much.

Great Masai Mara Safari Experience .
4/5

Probably the best 3 Days I ever spent on any safari. Africa Kenya Safaris definitely changed my perspective on Safari tours. The Tour guide was very committed to offering the best experience possible by making sure we spotted all the big five and all that was in our list. Before the safari I did not have much interest but now am looking forward to the next safari experience thanks to our amazing tour guide Ndara James. if you are thinking of tented camps you should definitely check out Elengata Olerai very accommodating with services rich of Masai culture no better way to experience it.

Have knowledge and understanding of the national parks.
5/5

We had an amazing 3days safari to Amboseli and Tsavo West natiomal park. Our driver guide Chris was always on time and had a lot of knowledge on animals and was very patient. We stayed at Amboseli serena and Kilaguni serena which were very good. .They had variety of meals to choose from and their service was excellent. We saw many animals and were lucky to get a clear view of Mt. Kilimanjaro!

Affordable. Great service. On time
5/5

We travelled to Amboseli with my friends using Africa Kenya Safari and I must say it was one of the best trips I have had. The drivers, Shari and Chris were on time, welcoming and knowledgable. The landcruisers were comfy and gave us a great view of the wild, especially when we got up close to the elephants. Everything was just awesome, awesome, awesome!

Amazing! They made our adventure trip to Amboseli comfortable and fun. We made new memories.
5/5

I'll go on a trip with them any day! Our guides, Chris and Shari, were patient with us when we stopped to take photos and videos lots of times, were super timely, knowledgeable about the animals and landscape, and easy to talk to. I went on a trip with my friends to Amboseli with Africa Kenya Safaris and we kept time, it was enjoyable, and there were even cool drinks in the fridge when it got too hot. The car was also very comfortable.

Overall, 6/5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Truly the best company you could book with!!!
5/5

I am SO glad I decided to book with Africa Kenya Safari’s!!! Steve, our booking agent, was extremely helpful in making sure everything was set up and ready to go before we departed to Africa! He went above and beyond by assuring we had rides everywhere we went and didn’t have to worry about finding a taxi, he booked extra excursions like the elephant orphanage, and he would frequently call and check up on us. Then we have Bonaya, our safari guide! He was so knowledgeable on all of the animals and everything regarding Masai Mara!! I would also like to thank Peter and Humphrey for driving us from spot to spot and being so kind!! You can really tell that this company really cares about its guests!! All in all we LOVED this company! THANK YOU for being such gracious hosts!!

Best guidance, Info, knowledge, and company to go with!
5/5

We had a ton of communication with our AKS contact, Steve! He always made sure to check in when we got A to B while traveling (even at 4am..). Our drivers always made sure to know our names, introduced themselves, helped with luggage and making sure we go into where we needed before leaving us. The service was undeniably the best! The value of the safari was unbeatable and affordable. We could rely on them to be on time to picking us up and dropping us off places. They dressed in ALS gear or had a sign so we could easily find them. The tour itself was beautiful and amazing. we got lucky and saw the Big 5 and more. Our guide could tell us so many things about the land, the people, animals, and more. We were lucky to have Bonaya as our tour guide. He had 1,000 questions a day and answered every single one. The Masai Mara Safari in itself was a beautiful place to tour.

Thank you to all the staff at AKS who made our trip one to remember and a hard one to beat :)
