Expectations greatly exceeded! Fantastic value for the price.
Originally we had plans to travel to another country but due to Covid restrictions, we changed plans and decided on a trip to Kenya. Even though it was with short notice Daniel was able to plan a great customized 7 day safari trip for us seeing a variety of parks in Kenya. Communication with him was great and so fast to respond to questions and concerns. I believe because they are a small and newer safari company makes them better than the competition because they are so accommodating and try so hard to make the experience great by exerting extra efforts to see all the animals and birds possible. Although the company is young, the guides we went out with(Daniel & James) were very experienced and knowledgeable, having more than 10-15 years experience each giving such tours. Everything that was promised/agreed upon was fulfilled and this is a very good and rare attitude/quality to find in the travel industry.

Memorable Adventure - All BIG FIVE
Hallo zusammen,
Ich und meine Freundin, wir sind beide Mitte 20, sind im Januar 2022 nach Kenya gereist. Nachdem wir eine Woche in Mombasa verbracht haben, wollten wir noch eine Safari machen. Wir haben uns lange nach verschiedenen Angeboten umgesehen. Es gibt billigere Anbieter, keine Frage, aber wir hatten dafür anständige, fast schon luxiröse Unterkünfte. Wir waren insgesamt 5 Tage unterwegs, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha und Masai Mara. Die Natur und die wilden Tieren haben mich unglaublich beeindruckt. Unser toller Guide Jasan hat unglaublich viel gewusst über den Park die Tiere und das Land. Es hat einfach riesigen Spaß gemacht und ich werde mein Leben lang positiv daran zurückdenken!!!!. Wenn ich wieder eine Safari in Kenya unternehme, aufjedenfall mit Meektrails!
Me and my girlfriend, we are both in our mid-20s, went to Kenya in January 2022. After spending a week in Mombasa, we wanted to do another safari. We looked around for a long time for different offers. There are cheaper operators, no question, but we had decent, almost luxurious accommodation for it. We were on the road for a total of 5 days, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Masai Mara. I was incredibly impressed by the nature and the wild animals. Our great guide Jasan was very knowledgeable about the park, the animals and the land. It was just great fun and I will remember it positively for the rest of my life!!!!. If I go on safari in Kenya again, I will definitely go with Meektrails!

One of the best Experience I ever had
Daniel, my first words are of eternal gratitude for the excellent reception, done with great professionalism. About the tours it was a unique experience, all done with great care and dedication. The landscapes and animals are fantastic. Regarding my friend JAMES our guide, yes I have gained a great friend, I will take the memories of these days with him for the rest of my life.
Daniel you were our guardian angel, you made everything happen without any mishap. Our sincere thanks.

The tour operator shows great value for dollar and is very concerned with health and safety .
Daniel Waruri has been organizing great Kenyan safaris for us since 2017 and this, our 5th with Daniel and Meektrails was our best. He was able to mange our goals of seeing as many species of Kenyan birds as possible along with seeing the usual and unusual African big game. We are currently close to our goal of identifying 500 species of Kenyan birds plus have seen the African Big Five [even all in one day in the Masai Mara...certainly a trip highlight!] I heartily recommend Meektrails as great value for dollar. Currently I am in the process of planning a sixth safari with Meektrails in August with a group of friends from the US and Canada.

Our driver/guide, James, was fantastic, a wealth of knowledge & cared for all our needs.
We had a spectacular 7 day safari. Because of the drive between safari parks and back to Nairobi we were actually in the parks five of the days. Amboseli was our favorite safari park. The AA Lodge at Amboseli was also the best! At the animal sanctuary at Lake Navaisha we were walking 10 feet from wild animals! James was a wonderful guide, a great spotter, careful driver, and very patient with us! Daniel's communication and trip customization was the best! The private safari gave the 3 of us lots of room to move around for the best viewing & taking of over 5,000 photographs. We would definitely recommend Meektrails for anyone.

Perfect all the way!
I found Meektrailssafaris online last summer and booked them for a 10-day safari before I started my job here in Nairobi. I had an amazing experience, and I was so satisfied that I have recommended Meektrailssafaris to my fellow teachers and friends for their safaris. In fact, one of my friends booked a trip for her family and friends to the Mara in a few days. I personally have just finished my 2nd trip with the company, and I have already secured a booking in July for when my family will visit. I can’t wait!
As a solo female traveler in a foreign country, I am so happy to have found this company, I find them extremely professional, great with their communication and they have always giving me the best itineraries with the best hotels. The director Daniel has always offered me his best rates and now that I live in Kenya, I am finding his rates very competitive. I appreciate the flexibility of the staff, their knowledge, and skills as tour guides. I am delighted to have discovered Meektrailssafaris and cannot recommend them enough.

Great Safari! Great Team!
We booked a safari spanning 5 days. The programme started with a pick-up in Nairobi. The first day we spent at SOPA lounge in Naivasha, followed by a day at Lake Nakuru. These two stops were perfect as we could get close to some of the animals (zebras, some antelopes, giraffes) during a walking safari and around the great hotel. At the lake we also took a boat ride where we could see a wide breath of different animals from numerous birds to hippos and crocodiles. All involved guides were very knowledgeable and showed us the animals in great detail. On our first game drive we also spotted some of the elusive rhinos. Following those stops we drove to Masai Mara. We were really lucky and got to see the big five during our week with the great guide James. We saw many different animals and James tailored the programme and the tour to our liking. He took a lot of time to answer the questions of our group (including two vets!), showed us animals that we were especially interested in and even gave us a political overview of the country and animal rights/protection in Kenya.
The tour was really great and I can only recommend it!
The company with Daniel at its head excelled beyond the tour. Even though the airline lost a suitcase they took over organizing everything and managed to somehow have my suitcase shipped to our location after only one day.

Fantastic experience!
A friend had recommended Meektrails safari to us and we were super happy about how everything went. They were able to accommodate all our requests (timings, destinations and budget) in a very short notice and yet all went wonderfully. We also couldn’t be happier with our driver, who was very kind and taught us a lot about Kenya’s wild life. Totally recommend!!

Committed to offering a good service
We had an excellent 4 days holiday trip to the Nakuru and Masai Mara National Parks. Meektrails provided the road trip itinerary which eventually turned out to be pleasant and well thought of. The choice of hotels and the tour vehicle was excellent.
The driver also understood the route and offered assistance and explanation when needed.
It was a pleasure working with Daniel and Simon (driver) through out the trip
