Our tour operator John is very considerate, easy to communicate and beyond our exceptions.
5/5

John is the best! Very considerate. Easy to communicate. If you need any change or stops during you trip he would be very helpful arranging that. John is also very good at the game drive. He can smell the animal and take us to see all the big five. Very reliable tour guide. The service is excellent.

Meek: reliable, adventurous and fun!
5/5

From start to finish, communication with MeekTrails was easy and Meek was very flexible in putting together an excellent 7-day safari program for us. Lodges and food were excellent. And our guide Anthony was not only a very skillful driver, he was also extremely knowledgeable on Kenyan culture, birds, plants and animals; knowing exactly where to go at what time and tweak the schedule accordingly. Anthony fulfilled on his promise of the Big Five, and we had good fun along the way!

Fantastic experience fully reccomended
5/5

Genuinely a unforgettable trip.

Fantastic service from Daniel and his team. Communication was excellent throughout and nothing was too much to ask.

We did the 7 day safari in Nakaru, Navaisha, Maasai Mara and Amboseli.

The lodges were all comfortable and all equipped with WiFi with good food.

Would reccomend upgrading to Savora if budget allows as that was truly exceptional.

The biggest highlight of the trip was our guide James. He was incredibly friendly and literally had a 6th sense to where the animals would walk and go leading to close encounters with the animals and some amazing pictures.

If you are booking ask for James as he will truly make your trip special.

All in all in a 5 star trip and a company I'd reccomend to anyone!

Safe, responsive and always at your disposal
5/5

Embarked on a 4-day adventure with Maktrails Safari led by the incredible Sammy. From majestic elephants to giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, and hyenas - it was a wildlife extravaganza! Sammy's expertise and Maktrails' seamless planning made this safari truly exceptional. Clean, safe lodging was an added bonus. A must for nature enthusiasts!

A fantastic trip
5/5

I have done my shares of safaris and they are absolutely the best. Everything was arranged to perfection and our guide/driver really tried to ensure that we saw all animals possible. Would definitely book with them again.

Hope I can visit back someday
5/5

We had a 10 days trip in Kenya, visited all must go spots including Nairobi city tour, amposeli, masai mara, nakuru and navaisha. Regarding hotels booked, the price Meektrails offered is the best of all. This is one big reason we chose this agency. Another reason is Pauline. Pauline is our trip designer, she is very thoughtful and patient with us. Even add us through wechat, which may not be easy for her but really boost communication efficiency with chinese customers. She took care of SIM card, hot air balloon booking for us and answered detailed questions like vaccinations, money exchange very fast! She also helped with room exchange even it’s after her work hours. All in all, she’s awesome!
What’s more surprising, is our driver/guide, Patrick. He’s such a gentleman that he wouldn’t talk too much as he know Asians are shy and not talkative, but he also wouldn’t forget to share anything that’s necessary for us to know. On cultural, religion, nationality, especially on animals. His great eyesight helped us spot animals smoothly, we even saw the whole process of cheetah hunting.
I can talk more and more about these two awesome people, but after all, this is great experience that I recommended to all friends interested in visiting Africa. Hope they can continue delivering great services to more people and make people fall in love with Africa.

They will go the extra mile
5/5

We went on the 7 day trip with a slight twist (no Lake Naivasha but an extra day at Maasai Mara).

What sold us to this operator was that they were very responsive, transparent about what was possible and what not, and had a competitive price. Pauline also helped us find the accommodations that best suited our needs (I recommend paying special attention to the reviews of the individual lodges).

Our driver John never tired and managed to find the big 5 and many more animals.

All in all great trip!

Excellent
5/5

The experience with Meektrails was great. Before booking the trip we had several whatsapp conversations with Paulin to choose the tour 100% to our liking. Once there we were picked up at the airport and spent the whole week with our Spanish speaking guide Michael. The hotels chosen were the same except for the first day when we were given a superior one due to lack of availability. We recommend Meektrails for their treatment, sincerity and management. Our guide Michael was very attentive and did not rest until he found as many animals as possible during the safari.
The tour is totally private, it was a couple tour with a vehicle for just the two of us.
Many thanks to Michael and Paulin.

Great 8 days in Kenya
5/5

Me and my mom spent great 8 days in Kenya with Meektrails Safaris.

The planning and communication before our arrival was smooth, Pauline was very responsive and provided answers to all my questions.

On the first day of Safari we were picked up from our hotel on the agreed time, greeted by Pauline, Daniel and our guide for the week - Anthony. Anthony made our safari experience great, he is a very positive person, provided us a lot of information about the plants and animals and made sure we see all the big 5 animals before the end of our tour.

The accommodation at Ziwa Bush Lodge can be highlighted as it felt luxurious, the rest of the lodges were fine as well for the mid-range category.

At the end of the safari we were dropped off at our hotel in Nairobi.

I can definitely recommend booking with Meektrails Safaris.

Can I rate six stars? Best experience ever.
5/5

Highly recommend Steve as our guide, he is very knowledgeable and always found animals in hidden places. Thanks to him we got best position for shooting Big Five, Ugly Five and many adorable antipopes and birds.

Pauline helped us in every details before we start the journey with clear itinerary, even with the ballon safari and Maasai trip.

We look forward to exploring Tanzania again with Meektrails ;)
