Very responsive and easy to work with
5/5

Following onto my one sentence description, Morning Star Tours (MST) accommodated me in several ways. First, they were very flexible and tailored my safaris in the order that I wanted to see the various national parks. In addition, in the 3 or 4 months before my travels I had made several changes of venues, but especially on my travel dates as they kept changing, but MST was understanding and worked to fill my needs. In regard to the safari itself, our driver Mwololo knew the landscape well and were the best spots for viewing animals were. His knowledge of the animals, the towns we passed and its people, and the vegetation was supreme. So overall we were satisfied. The only thing MST could improve on was the vehicle we used. Mechanically there was nothing wrong and we trusted that it could get us anywhere, but some simple TLC on the interior, and especially on the side door which we had trouble opening so our driver had to mostly get out to open it for us. I'm sure sand gets into the areas of the latch making it harder as we went along, but we had a little trouble from the beginning. Regardless, it was a minor inconvenience, and does not take away from me recommending MST to someone else in the future. Thanks for a trip of a lifetime

The service and the price of the travel agency are all great!
5/5

First of all, Morningstar has an advantage in booking hotels. They can order hotels that other travel agencies can't order, such as Naivasha sopa.Thanks Dennis!
Secondly, the guides Alex and Glen are very responsible and smart. They will take care of our feelings and look for animals seriously and try their best to meet our requirements. Thank you!

Great safari experience with James!
5/5

I recently visited Kenya and was hosted by MorningStar. Our guide, James, was simply fantastic. We first went to Masai Mara, then Lake Naivasha, and finally Amboseli. James was very dedicated in helping us find animals in the national parks. He has a lot of knowledge about the animals and shared many interesting facts with us. His enthusiasm made our trip very enjoyable and informative. We saw lions, elephants, giraffes, and many other animals up close. James always made sure we were safe and comfortable throughout the journey. The entire trip was well-organized, and everything went smoothly. We really appreciate James and MorningStar for an unforgettable safari experience. Highly recommend their service to anyone planning a trip to Kenya!

Highly recommended, perfect Safari
5/5

From the start, Dennis at Morningstar was very friendly and communicative. He helped us tailor an 8-day Safari according to our wishes and needs, and the entire process went smoothly. We visited Masai Mara, Lakes Nakuru & Naivasha, Amboseli and Tsavo West & East, ending our journey on the coast. All bookings and reservations went without a hitch, and Dennis remained in close contact throughout the Safari. All our accommodations were clean & well presented, with excellent amenities, courteous staff and delicious food. At the conclusion of our Safari, Dennis ensured we were transferred to our final destination with a free transfer, which was greatly appreciated.

We were picked up from our Nairobi hotel by our driver Augustine in his trusty Land Cruiser. Augustine immediately made a positive impression, being friendly and outgoing. He displays a true passion for his work, and his extensive knowledge of Kenyan wildlife, geography and culture made even the journeys between reserves & national parks fun and engaging. While on game drives he helped us experience a wide diversity of animals up close, while ensuring we stayed safe and avoided disturbing wildlife in their natural environments. He kept us briefed of the daily schedules, and was always on time at the start of each day.

Thanks to the tireless and professional work of Dennis, Augustine and everyone else at Morningstar, we had a truly unforgettable holiday in beautiful Kenya, and would not hesitate to book our next Safari with them.

Great experience
5/5

We had a 8 days tour around Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo and lakes Naivasha and Nakuru. Everything was smooth and well organized, our guide, John, was prepared and fun, always punctual, and he knew everybody, which is always a good thing since since everything is possible in Africa if you know the right people :-)
The lodges/camps selected were all good despite the fact that we booked last minute and the transfers were organized conveniently.
In short, we had a great time there.

They did a good job
5/5

The tour operator did a good job in communications. Our safari driver is experienced and reliable.
Some of the activities are not handled by the tour operator, and things can go wrong. We had a terrible experience in the night game drive at Ol Pejata: the vehicle is a “bus”, instead of a Land Cruiser. The person controlling the light can only scan the left part, and we cannot stand up to watch the animals.
Another unfortunate thing is that a bridge at Masai Mara is destroyed by the flood. We are not able to reach the other side of the Mara river (sand river) to watch the great migration.
Overall, the service provided by the tour operator is aligned with our expectation.
