Very satisfied
I was very happy to spend 7 days of happy safari with our guide Lucas. Although the trip is tiring, it is an experience I have never had before, and I am very satisfied with the accommodation arrangement. I saw a lot of wild animals, and the guide also worked hard to help us find and introduce animals. The driving skills are also great. Anyway, it's an unforgettable trip.

Unforgettable Experience at Masai Mara with Meektrails Safari
Unforgettable experience with Meektrail Safaris. We did a 10 day trip in Kenya and Tanzania which included all day safaris at Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara. All booking and co-ordination from India was handled by Meektrail safaris. The guide for the Kenya part of the trip was from Meektrails and the Tanzania half was handled by Serengeti Clarity. Meektrails Safari co-ordinated with Serengeti Clarity for the Tanzania part of the bookings. Our guide Gideon and the team met us when we landed in Nairobi airport. We made our way to the Zebra plains camp in Masai Mara via Land cruiser. The service was exceptional. Hassle free from booking from India and all communication online. Our experience was truly awesome. Saw loads of wildlife including giraffes, zebras, lions, leopards, rhinos, wilderbeasts, hyenas, ostriches, loads of birds. The wilder beast crossing was definitely the highlight of the trip and our guide Gideon was very knowledgeable and a great driver. Knew which points to take us to and kept us patiently waiting to catch the crossing which was well worth it. It was an unforgettable experience and I highly recommend an African safari with them. Didn't need to bother about anything on the trip. Stayed in tent camps at each location. Our guide took us over to the Isebania border to cross over to Tanzania where we met our guide for the Tanzania part of the trip. Flew out of Arusha to Dar el salam and back to India. Highly recommend doing an African safari in Kenya and Tanzania with Meektrails Safari in Kenya and Serengeti Clarity in Tanzania

Great service & amazing experience.
We booked a 7 day safari with meektrails in August 24. Our experience was just amazing - it could not have been much better. From the moment we were picked up and welcomed by our travel consultant, driver and the manager of Meektrails with nice safari hats and water bottles to the very last goodbyes at the Namanga border, we felt service, welcomed, valued and in best hands. Especially our driver Philip did an extraordinary job - not only was he very kind and funny, but also showed tremendous knowledge when it came to finding the greatest spots. In addition he made us feel at home in Kenia any time during the trip :) would always book him when we get back to kenia and a safari maybe with our children at some point.
Regarding the accommodations I can only say - we got what we paid for. We were really happy with all the accommodation - location wise as well as food wise.
Overall a great experience that I can only recommend!

Amazing safari trip - thanks to james and valentine
Our 9-day journey with MeekTrails was incredibly satisfying, especially thanks to their representative, Valentine. She was incredibly responsive, and every time I had a question, she replied immediately. Her professionalism and prompt communication made the entire booking process smooth and reassuring.
Our driver guide, James, was fantastic. He is a very kind and responsible person. We also appreciated his attentiveness and care in ensuring our comfort and safety throughout the journey. He was always accommodating to our requests, and his ability to spot wildlife that we might have missed, along with his insightful explanations about the animals' characteristics, added so much to our adventure. James's professionalism and enthusiasm made this safari trip truly unforgettable.

Pleasant and unique 7-days journey. 100% Recommended.
Me and my friend had a 7-day private group safari with Meektrails, which I found from this website initially. Despite some miscommunications during the initial quote period, our communication became pleasant and smooth once Diana took over. Accommodations are true to descriptions, lodges and hotels are clean and well-equipped. Our tour guide Peter did superb work. He always know the best places for us to take pictures of the Big Five.
I would definitely come visit Kenya with Meektrails again!

Don’t Look Any Further - book with Meektrails!
We've just returned from a seven day safari in Kenya through Meektrails Safaris and we cannot say enough great things about the company, the people, the itinerary, the lodges they recommended, and especially our incredible guide. Traveling were two adults and our four kids (ages 13,14,20 and 22)
Picking a safari company is overwhelming. We don't have a lot of friends who have done this so I had to rely on a lot of research and reading reviews. My whole family is so happy that we landed at Meektrails. The communication with our travel expert, Eliud, was reliable and quick. There are times I'm certain that I reached out to him when it was some obscene hour in Kenya and he always got back to me in a timely, professional manner with great information. Most notably, Eliud was there is a SERIOUS pinch when I had messed up our Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA). He and the Meektrails team literally saved our vacation.
Our itinerary went from Nairobi to Amboseli to Lake Naivasha to Lake Nakuru to the Masai Mara in seven days. It's a lot of time in the vehicle but the big, upgraded LandCruiser was seriously spacious and comfortable. Meektrails gave us a suggested list of lodges which I tweaked a little to our individual needs, but all of the lodges were awesome - comfortable rooms, awesome security, nice amenities and food that literally pleased everyone in our group.
The very best part of our safari was our incredible guide, Joseph, who fit in wonderfully with our big family. Joseph managed to be ever present for advice, information, counsel and help, while also being totally discreet and unintrusive. When you go on safari, you're going to spend A LOT of time with your guide, and it was fantastic to have someone who was so knowledgeable, hard-working, personable and experienced. Joseph is an incredible driver (always safe, and it's NOT EASY to navigate through some of these towns!), but most importantly he is a veritable font of knowledge about Kenya, it's parks, the animals, the culture, the history. We loved learning from him and hearing about all of the animals we saw. And we saw a lot!
Meektrails says, "We take you close!" and they mean it! There were times when we were literally 15 feet from a wild animal and our guide always seemed to know where to find them. We saw just about everything you can imagine and many things that I couldn't!
It was truly a magical experience to have this safari. I was a little apprehensive about how much it would cost and how we would get the fees to them, but Meektrails made it affordable and easy to deal with the financial aspect this trip of a lifetime. There are a lot of companies who want your business to do a safari - trust me and choose Meektrails. They do an incredible job from start to finish and you will be glad you chose them!

Exceptional
Where do I begin, just WOW … from the initial contact to book our safari the team at Meaktrails was consistent and responsive which reassured us we had made the right choice going with them. Victor couldn’t have planned our itinerary any better, all the locations we stayed at were fabulous.
It gets even better when we get their best tour guide Philip who drove many hours picking us up from our Hotel in Nairobi & dropping us off at our requested locations (Kuria, Nairobi) We got to see all the Big Five thanks to his quick thinking and driving skills which ensured we were in the best spots to see all the animals. Asante sana from is all Philip.

Amazing honeymoon!
We had a wonderful 6 days Safari of Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha organized by Meektrails. The staff was able to tailor an itinerary that met all of our needs. Our guide Philip made sure we had a great experience, and took care of us every step of the way, including adjusting the program to make it more convenient for us. The only thing, if any, is to clarify early on whether any guides/ services are included in your package, or if you need to pay for them on the spot. Overall, we highly recommend them!!

Wow. Well done Meektrails and our guide Philip! What a safari company! Big 5 ticked and more
Wow! Well done Meektrails and our INCREDIBLE guide Philip. 8 day safari (Amboseli, Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara) with airport transfers through Meektrails.
The head office, Ester and Daniel, were excellent. Very accommodating and personalised a safari for our budget. Even some nice honeymoon touches. We chose slightly more budget, so we had (beautiful) accommodation just outside the parks (max 15 mins extra drive in morning, but you actually got to see more local culture and safari this way). All the hotels are vetted in person by Meektrails, so all of a great standard (we’ve stayed in the ritz-Carlton down to a garden shed). Amazing food, we ate everything on offer, zero tummy isssues. Very clean and fresh!
We are British, and were reluctant to send a lot of Monday to a different country, thankfully, Meektrails accepted an online deposit and proof of flights as our intention to book, and we paid the rest when we arrived (on reflection - not needed - legitimate reliable company).
Our guide, Philip, really made our holiday. Extremely knowledgable, saw the big 5 and so much more. He worked hard to get all the best vantage points for photos - lovely lovely guy. He accommodated everything we needed. Stopped whenever we wanted to stop (on the safari drives and transfers). Very friendly. Organized everything from breakfast/lunch/dinner, visits to Masai village visits, nice places to stop for food and a stretch between the reserves, optimum safari routes - Faultless.
Like any safari trip with any safari company, always check your selected hotels, vehicles and travel times so you know what to expect. The negative reviews for Meektrails were down to people not understanding their booking vs their budget. We are exceptionally happy.
Thanks a million!!
Marty and Isabell
