A perfectly organized safari!
5/5

We did a thorough research before booking this safari but Morning Star made the difference from the beginning. From day one we felt safe thanks to the great communication we had with Dennis, who was always available to plan with us our dream safari.
The tour was exactly as planned, we had the chance to see everything we wanted and had so much fun. We went to Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. All hotels were perfect, we stayed at Ol Tukai Lodge, Sarova Lion Hill Game Lodge and Zebra Plains Mara.
Our guide Peter was always on time and he was super flexible and super eager to help us on anything that came up. We really appreciated his effort for us to see as many animals as we could while also providing many information for them. He was
Both Dennis and Peter were willing to go beyond to make sure that we were having the time of our lives.
A massive thank you to the Morning Star team! Highly recommended!

Top notch safari
5/5

I booked the safari with Northstar nine months in advance and throughout the run up appreciated the promptness of their feedback on queries and the easinesses of communication. The safari ant Amboseli itself was impeccably conducted by a very knowledgeable and forthcoming guide, and preceded by a pleasant informal introduction to Morningstar’ staff at their office. We managed to repeatedly encounter the big fives bar the elusive leopard and all the other creatures. The visit to the Masai village and school was both moving and memorable. The Tukai lodge where we stayed was the best accommodation we had over the entire trip, and the Masai night dance resonated deeply with us. On the return leg, thanks to Morningstar’s flexibility and cooperation we were able to add a Nairobi leg in the afternoon of the last day to visit the baby elephants, the animal orphanage and the National Park. An unforgettable experience with a highly professional organization and motivated staff. Highly recommended to discerning travellers wishing to dig deeper and learn lessons from their African experience.

Perfect trip with Morning Star!
5/5

My wife and I started planning our trip to Kenya back in September. We contacted a number of travel agencies on safari.com and Joysharon from Morning star had the most clear and detailed itinerary and was willing and responded to any questions we had in a timely manner. Her attention to detail and efficiency was impressive. After receiving 5 price quotes from different companies and discussing different options. We decided that morning star had the best value for money plan.
Our safari was 1/24-1/31 and covered Nairobi, Masa Mara, Navashia Lake and Amboslie NP. Our Guide and driver Alex Masila is warm, enthusiastic and very experienced. He planned everything so that we not only enjoyed everything according to plan but it was also balanced so that we were fresh and engaged at all times. We saw all the big 5 and the accommodation especially Maisha Mara Camp were second to none.
I really recommend Mornings Star tours. Ask for Joy to plan your trip and Alex to be your driver with the new Safari 4X4. You won’t regret it.

Don’t hesitate - book now
5/5

Myself and my partner arrived back home not so long ago from a 5 day safari experience with Morningstar.
I don’t know where to begin - from the booking process, customisation, communication to the most unforgettable safari experience of a lifetime.
Alex, our guide, was professional and polite throughout. He ensured that we saw every single wild animal on our list and would not sleep until we did. Constantly on the radio, communicating to find out where to head - he’s a well connected, knowledgable guide.
We will never forget our experience provided by Joseph and Alex at Morningstar. 10/10

The best tour operator!
5/5

Amazing attitude and support, combined with professionalism. Great communication with Joseph from the office before the trip and during the safari period! All the camps and hotels were correct compared to the offer, we were surprised by upgrade of the camp range as well. There was an issue with my luggage at the airport, then Joseph reacted immediately and transported it to the hotel, for which I am very grateful.
Safari was amazing experience. Our guide, Wilfred always did his best to find as much animals as possible and placed us to the best view spots close to the wilds. He complied with us and took care of us all the time. Absolutely recommend Morningstar safaris as the best safari agency!

An amazing weekend in Amboseli
5/5

We were a group of colleagues visiting from the United States to Nairobi for work meetings and we decided for the weekend to book a short safari to Amboseli (Saturday to Sunday). We selected MorningStar and we were not disappointed. The service and experience were excellent and we had a perfect trip.

From the very start the communication from Joseph on the quotes and booking arrangements were fast, clear and courteous - he was so helpful and helped us make sure we had the exact schedule and activities that we wanted at the right price. Good service and good value.

The driver George was also excellent from the start, on time, polite and friendly, helpful answering questions and explaining everything we were doing and seeing. Our journey was comfortable and enjoyable all the way though.

The accommodation we chose was in Ol Tukai lodge and it was great, we were delighted with the friendly and helpful staff service, good cleanliness, lovely food, beautiful setting and comfortable beds. In the evening there was a fireplace and a bar, a barbecue for dinner, and you could even watch elephants a walking by over breakfast. The lodge also arrange our night time drive, with a dedicated driver and spotter which was extra special.

Finally - thanks to the animals! We saw more than we ever dreamed we would - lions, elephants, zebra, giraffes, hippos, cheetah, gazelles, hyenas and so many wonderful and fascinating bird species, we were really lucky and the whole trip was a magical and moving experience.

If you have the chance - DO THIS!

Our guide Willy was very friendly and professional throughout the safari and gave his best to show us as many animals as possible.
We would definitely recommend to do choose Morning Star as a tour operator and hope to be back one day!

Excellent Safari Experience
5/5

We took a very fascinating Safari journey. We saw almost all kinds of animals except for Rhino. Of course due to the season reasons, there were no large crowds of Zebras or Wildebeests, still we are satisfied. Our driver James is reliable, always can find animals.
