Very professional, excellent staff and amazing overall experience
Amazing safari experience, transparent communication, excellent quality, and very friendly staff.
Valentine was very clear in our communications and supported in any adjustments we requested. She also managed to upgrade one of our hotels at no extra cost to us, which allowed us to see the Masai Mara from our bedroom and while having breakfast and dinner
Lucas (our guide) was fantastic. Not only did he do his job professionally, he also supported us on any other issues and requests we had. He clearly knows his way around the parks and we were able to see all big 5 with him (and many more!). We are truly thankful for having him us our guide and hope that this message reaches him.

Best experience ever
Our experience with Meektrails Safari was extraordinary, creating unforgettable memories that will last a lifetime. From the very beginning, their team showed immense kindness and support, making us feel surrounded by wonderful people from the initial trip planning at home to our arrival in the stunning landscapes of Kenya.
Pauline, our main contact at Meektrails Safari, and James, our guide, were exceptional throughout. They were not only incredibly accommodating but also warm and attentive to all our needs. Meektrails Safari truly embodies outstanding customer service. The organization of our 7-day safari was flawless, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the adventure.
James, with his passion and enthusiasm, made the trip even more special. We instantly connected with him, and thanks to his expertise and dedication, we were able to see every animal and visit every location we had dreamed of, all while enjoying every moment together, from early mornings to late evenings.
Pauline worked tirelessly to tailor the perfect itinerary, balancing our time and expectations seamlessly. We are deeply grateful for having met such remarkable people who made our journey possible. Without them, this incredible experience wouldn’t have been the same!

Unforgettable, excellent trip!
17-09-2024 - 2 person trip (couple)
We booked our private Kenya trip (12 days) with Meektrails and we can only recommend it!
The first part of our trip was the climb of Mount Kenya. We were accompanied by Elija's wonderful team who carried our backpacks all the way up and down, settled our tents, provided us with the best, freshly prepared food (they carried it up the mountain!) and learned us all secrets the mountain had for us. They were always ready for us, we could not have had a better experience.
Part two of our trip were a series of safaris with our guide Philippe. We had high expectations and they were only beaten. Philippe really has a passion for the animals and in every park we visited (Nakuru, Masai Mara, Naivasha, Hell's gate, Amboselli), he showed us every corner and every animal the park had to offer. We realize we had a bit of luck to see all these animals, but we also felt like Philippe really knew where to wait for them and he had a good communication with other guides in the park, so we could catch up with them if they saw a specific animal. We do love animals ourselves and we came to discover as much animals as possible and to learn new facts about them. For us, it felt like the perfect match with our guide, he really shared his passion and told us so many interesting facts. It was always discussed at which hour we would meet in the morning and also during safari it was always asked if we were satisfied to go back to the hotel. We even had a game drive from 7am until 6pm because we (and also our guide) could not get enough of it. Every day we ended in a beautiful lodge where we could enjoy good food and a good night of sleep. In most lodges there was also a swimming pool to relax, although we did not want to make time to use those.
Our complete trip was arranged by Pauline, she was always ready for any questions we had. We had contact via WhatsApp. She even bought us train tickets to visit the coast after our meektrails trip because I could not book these tickets from home (only accepted payment M-Pesa, which I did not have). Also the transition between part 1 (mountain) and part 2 (safari) was smoothly, our mountain guide was in contact with our safari guide, so by the time we came out of the mountain, the minivan for our safari was waiting for us.
Maybe one last recommendation: we did the complete trip with a minivan and did not pay the extra fee for a landcruiser and we would recommend that! It was a comfortable car, the roof could be opened and we really had a good view.

Experienced, kind, gentlemen, knowledge full
Booked a private 5 day adventure through Peris and James as our driver. Peris custom made our trip and made it all magically work with our requests being fulfilled, can’t thank her enough! The day to day planning was perfect and everyday was packed full on adventure.
James knew all the spots to see the big 5, and we would always be the first few to spot animals before the crowd comes, allowing us to get really awesome photos and footage of the animals. James is a friendly gentlemen with connections and friends like no other so if you have a good or gift items you are looking for James is the man, he can take care of you!
As for the payments, it was 30% down payment, and complete payment prior to the adventure. Also if there was any issues getting into country you can request a refund. Please be sure to check country requirements 👍🏼

They are very professional, reliable and take care of their business with pride!
It was such an amazing experience in Kenya with our tour guide James! He was professional, patient and very easy to talk with, we were able to see all the Big Fives during our trip thanks to his great knowledge and connections everywhere! The schedule waa smooth and well timed, we also enjoyed the vehicle very much, it was so reliable and comfortable, and of course James driving was great!
Peris also helped a lot during our booking process, due to our late book some of our hotels not available but she recommended good replacement and it was great experience!
I would definitely recommend the agency, hopefully we could come back again in the future with more family members!

Save yourself some effort and choose Meektrails, it's a once in a lifetime experience!
We've just completed our trip with our guide Jason. We had very high expectations coming to Kenya for a Safari and it's safe to say that Jason fulfilled every expectations you could imagine. He was incredibly skilled at spotting wildlife and explaining to us all the details behind that animal. He has a wealth of knowledge and this trip wouldn't have been as amazing as it was without him. Not only did Jason spot all the animals for us, we got to see the Big Five which we didn't think would be possible due to the illusive leopard. We even got to see the leopards cub!
William, our booking consultant was great at answering all my questions about the tour and helped provide the best itinerary possible. He even gave us some different safari options like a boat, walking, and biking safari. All had a guide for that particular location who gave so many interesting facts and helped answer any questions we had. You really felt immersed in the land.
The hotels were wonderful but we didn't get to relax too much because we were so keen on getting out and seeing the animals. Food was tasty and the hotel workers were lovely.
The only flaw with this trip, is we couldn't stay longer. Highly recommend Meektrails and would especially recommend asking for Jason! Asante Sana Jason and Meektrails.

You will never regret your choice
It's really not wrong to choose meektrails. The itinerary is reasonable and the hotel is also very good. Especially my guide Anyona Peter, because of him, I saw the African Big Five and even the rhinos. Because of him, I had no regrets about my first trip to Kenya. Looking forward to coming again next time.

Meektrails Safaris provided an excellent safari!
Meektrails Safaris provided an incredible experience for myself, my husband, and our friend. George was our guide, and I could not speak more highly of him. He was professional, communicative and highly knowledgable about not only the animals and questions we had on the safari, but also about Kenya and Kenyan culture. Eliud was very helpful in terms of accommodating our last minute requests and changes. The safari exceeded our expectations and I would definitely recommend Meektrails and George to any of my family and friends.

Meektrails has an excellent customer service and you can feel that the client is very important.
We have really enjoyed the time in Kenya, everything was absolutely fantastic and the people were very kind with us.
Thanks to our guide Philip, we had a fantastic week. He gave us the opportunity to see the big 5 during the amazing safaris, so we could not thank him enough. He tried to explain us the Kenyan culture and how to approach the nature and the life with the Kenyan vibes. We have felt safe every second, and the company sorted out all our requests in seconds. Pauline from Meektrails, has been very kind and professional from the first moment we decided to book the holiday 6 months ago.
As a first time safari travellers, I can’t recommend Merktrails, Philip and Pauline more. Asante Sana.

Amazing experience
We had a truly wonderful trip. The places we stayed at were quiet and amidst nature. The trip was very varied, with different daily activities and nature parks. Our guide and driver, Joseph, made this trip unforgettable. His kindness and help come with a deep knowledge of and passion for all the nature and animals we encountered. On top of that, he was a cautious and safe driver. We opted for a 5-day trip, but regretted not making it longer, and hope to return. Also, Diana was very responsive to our questions. The trip clearly exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend Meektrails Safari.
