Best time of our Lives, trip of a lifetime with Meektrails.
Meektrails.
We highly recommend Meektrails Safaris.
We went through countless options before we chose Meektrails, for a 5 night, 6 day Safari through Kenya. Meektrails and our organiser William put our minds at ease. The night before I felt nervous & the second we met our Guide Onezmas we felt comfortable and immediately excited.
Each day Onezmas greeted us cheerily and over the 6 days he maintained professionalism, whilst also being warm and friendly with a great sense of humour. We felt like mates in no time.
If you can, ask for Onezmas. He went out of his way for us the whole time, he made sure that anything we asked for, we got to see. He knew the parks better than anyone and we quickly realised we were in the best of hands. We felt like we got the most well rounded Safari with once in a lifetime memories and experiences thanks to Onezmas and Meektrails.
We saw numerous other Meektrails tours along the way and realised we had chosen a great well-known company.
They had great touches, such as a safari hat, drink bottle, personalised jeeps, uniforms and more.
We saw the big 5, a family of cheetahs feeding on a gazelle, a lion praying on zebras, so many cubs, A kill in a tree, we got up close to all the different animals, and each camp we stayed at was better than the next. Meektrails makes sure you have the best options.
I would advise any changes you make with your organiser you get an updated itinerary.
We have no complaints and have recommended Meektrails and Onezmas to all our friends and Family. Everyone is impressed with our
Thank you for providing us with the best Safari we could’ve dreamt of. We hope to return some day.
-Toni and Aidan.

The top value for dollar safari company that you can use!
I am pleased to file this report on my 4th safari with Daniel Waruri of Meektrails Safaris. Obviously, having booked multiple safaris with Daniel I have been very pleased with his services.
The first safari I was with Mr. Waruri he was sub-contracting with a different safari company but since has started his own company which specializes in safaris of a personalized nature.
The last three safaris I have taken with Daniel were ones specializing in bird watching. Daniel is an active birder and photographer in his own right and we have been to many parks and reserves on these excursions that he researched himself. During these trips his emphasis on the lodging is "value for dollar". It would be easy to schedule visits to all 5-star [and therefore more expensive] resorts and have clients be happy with the facilities. Mr. Waruri scouts places that are 'diamonds in the rough' resulting in substantial savings on the safaris without sacrificing quality.
As I write this I am planning my 5th and 6th safaris with Meektrails so I think that you can infer that I give this company and Mr. Waruri my wholehearted support.

A thrilling and exciting adventure.
the day started with a bang. As we had already arranged the time to start the wildest week of my trip to kenya. The safari was arranged by non other than daniel, the ceo of meektrails. With good price range any one loking for a budget safari can enjoy. The guide who was sent to pick us up, explained all the details with clarity,...(countinue). The guide was on time and we quickly made haste to start our journey. Masai mara was extrodinary. The first time we step into our lodge we knew that daniel made the right choice. Some lodges come with one bed while others too. Very affordable and very quiet. You are one with nature. No wifi just quietness. Even if you cant go one day with out your phone i doubt you will even need to pick up your phone while at the lodge. Its breath taking. For those who dont know animals, the days i spent in masai mara, the guide explained everything to us with so much detail. They also had experience since they knew where the animals hid and roamed. If you are lucky you will be able to see a lion. As an inexperience travel i didnt know what i was getting myself into. But with meektrails safari, i got to experence kenya like never before. 3 days is masai mara. Riding around the park waiting with excitement for the next animal you see. A budget lodge with incredible hospitality and freindly people. Not only do you see the animals daniel helped me get to know the locals by introducing them to us. we spoke to the masai, learned they custom and was enchanted by their splendiferous dance. At meek safari they go above and beyond. After masai mara we spent one day in amboseli. Just a stop over to mombasa. We were hoping for good weather to be able to be able to see mount kilimanjaro but the following day it was cloudy. There was nothing we could do about it other than drive to our final destination. During the drives, daniel is a very enthusiatic person, he is always ready to engange in a conversation and willing to get to know you better. On the drives between places he often gives us facts about the place we are in or the people, culture or animal that we see. After all the safari we chose yo relax in mombasa. The the white and blue city in kenya. The hotel we stayed in was also recommended by daniel and to our suprise he was not wrong. Daniel is an astounding tour guide. With good charisma and character. He seems to know all the hidden jems in kenya and anywhere he picks to take you know that there is going to be an adventure.
For 3 days we stayed in mombasa. It was humid and hot but had a sense of tranquility in the air that made you feel calm. Without daniel i would have never seen the hidden jems of mombasa. He took us to mamba village where you see crocodiles but also you get to taste one. A local delicacy in mombasa that you have to try. Very juicy and strechy makes me recall eating chicken. Our days in the hotel were splendid. The hotel had pool tables, pingpong, a bar an upstairs restaurant, spa and an enormous pool. anything you could think of was there. It was a trip to remember. Entering the city is easy but leaving is whats hard. With out daniel and meektrails safari, i woukd have never experienced this country's beauty, diversity and culture. For a mid-budget safari meektrails safari might be the answer you were searching for.

Meektrails safari is a wonderful company with great people working for the company, a lot of interesting people, people who are ready to help you understand what you see. From the animals and plants you see in Masai Mara to interesting facts about land and different mountains. Overall I would record this company for anyone who is interested to go on a safari.

The best experience ever at an affordable rate and and at the fastest time
It was a normal Friday no plans but my body was tired and i needed a get away. A friend recommends meektrail tours. At this point i have no idea what i want. Thank God for meektrails they were able to quickly recommend sweet waters Mara serena in Nanyuki... Home away from home. Talk of the sun
Phyllis is quite charming and reliable
We had such a good time in Mombasa, thanks to Meektrail safaris. In a short time, they were able to organize something special that coincided with my mum's birthday. Phyllis went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time even going to the extent of picking and dropping us at our doorstep.
What stood out for me was their reliability, cost-effectiveness and personal touch. Looking forward to traveling with Meektrail safaris to another destination.
Keep up the good work Phyllis!
I highly recommend!
We had an amazing time in Kenya thanks to Meektrails!!
At the start of the trip, we coordinated with Daniel, the owner of Meektrails, to customize our itinerary. He was very extremely flexible and was communicative throughout the process. We wanted a 5-day tour for Lake Naivasha, Maasai Mara, and Lake Nakuru within a reasonable budget, and Meektrails was the most responsive and flexible from all the safari tour companies we contacted! They booked really great hotels (including Sopa Lodge – the best safari hotel!) for the same price that other safari companies offer low-budget hotels. Daniel was available to answer all our questions about traveling to Kenya (even those unrelated to the safari) via WhatsApp before we arrived which was a comfort to us, since traveling to a new country can be stressful!
At the start of the trip, Phyllis, the manager, came to pick us from the hotel with our tour guide where we coordinated the payment. From that point onward we were with Jasan, our tour guide. One thing to mention was that our safari van was very clean, with an unlimited supply of drinking water – super necessary since drives are long!
We had an amazing time with Jasan – he was an incredible tour guide and we cannot recommend him enough. He was extremely knowledgeable about every single animal – from birds to mammals, he knew them all! He also carried with him pocket guides on animals which turned out to be great since we were able to read about the animals as we spotted them. He carried binoculars as well which was convenient – since sometimes animals would be far away in the safari. He was really great at navigating in the safari, he made sure that we spotted all the Big 5. And if there was any specific animal that we wanted to see, he made sure to keep a lookout for those as well. One thing that really stood out about Jasan was that he cared about the park’s cleanliness as well – we actually stopped to pick up a fallen hat in the middle of the track in Lake Naivasha. He also spent some time guiding some lost safari drivers – that’s how you knew he had a gem of a heart!
We highly recommend Jasan and Meektrails Safari! It was our first time in Kenya – and they made sure we had the best time ever!

Fantastic operator with great communication
I really enjoyed my trip with meektrails. Daniel was very very good. He spent the time organising the trip around us and he made me feel at home the second we got to Kenya. Daniel really was great. The 4x4 van was so spacious and we enjoyed a while 10 days. We loved the mix of all the lodges and tents. It was well worth the money amd very cheap compared to alot of others. We really saw everything and went to the best places thanks to Daniel.
