Tour was incredible, but our guide Sammy was the highlight!
5/5

My friend and I did a 2 person private tour with Kameraz of Afrika in July 2024 for 7 days in Kenya. It was very easy to communicate with the tour operator prior to our trip. They made sure we had our trip and add-ons confirmed, the value for money was definitely a plus, and I felt we had good response times prior to arriving (especially taking into account the difference in time zones). Once we were in Nairobi and ready for our safari is when our guide Sammy took over and I can't stress enough how amazing he was!! I didn't have too many expectations since I hadn't done a safari before, but now having been on one and spoken to others who have gone on their own - your guide makes all the difference and Sammy went above and beyond at every turn. There were the easy things like he was always on time for our meet ups and stayed with us at every excursion (including at all secondary locations for the add-ons we did to our trip (boat ride, hot air balloon ride, horseback riding)). He also made sure we always knew what to expect every day of the safari (so we could dress, pack and plan accordingly) and he was incredibly knowledgeable and clearly loves what he does! My friend and I are very curious and had a million questions everywhere we went and he was so informative and never made us feel like we were pestering him with our curiosity and questions. If anything, he was really excited to have people who loved learning as much as he does! It's obvious how much knowledge and experience he has in every aspect, not just inside the parks and about the animals. He was such a kind, positive and helpful person, he truly made our experience go from great to incredible. I highly recommend requesting him if booking with Kameraz!

Great Experience!
5/5

We did a 10 days safari with Kameraz in August 24: Nairobi - Masai Mara - Lake Nakuru - Lake Naivasha - Amboseli - Tsavo West- Tsavo East plus 3 days Diani beach. Bena was our driver and guide and did a great and safe job. We saw all animals including a leopard and a river crossing of gnus and zebras in Masai Mara. Even after more than 10 years as a guide, Bena is still very passionate about big cats and river crossings and wherever there is an opportunity to see one he will not miss it.
The whole tour was well organized with very nice lodges and excellent food. Over all, an incredible and phantastic experience.
Many thanks to Carol and her team - they did great job!

Well organized Safari trip cross Kenya and Tanzania seamlessly.
5/5

My boyfriend and I had an excellent journey with Kameraz of Afrika. I recommend this agency for your Safari trip for the following reasons.
1. Reasonable price with firmed accommodations.
I compared more than 10 safari agencies, Kameraz of Afrika is the best in terms of price and smooth of communication.
2. Firmed hotel/lodges.
I heard some cases that agency promised certain accommodations but when tourists arrived, they changed to worse hotels. And incidence never happened with Kameraz of Afrika.
3. Experienced drivers/guides.
Both guides for Kenya and Tanzania have more than 15 years' experience. Trip with them seems that we have a biologist around. We even saw leopards, cheetahs, serval cats which not so many people can see.

Kameraz provided a good experience all around from easy booking, accommodations, to good tour guide
5/5

Kendi of Kameraz was flexible in providing different options and itineraries as I tried to decide what would be best for our family. Pricing was very reasonable compared to other companies I contacted and finalizing the reservation was smooth and easy. We were happy with the accommodations throughout the eight full days - some were actually quite nice that we enjoyed taking a break from the game drives. I had been to South Africa two years before and understand that a good safari depends much on luck in animal sighting but also on your tour guide. We got to see all the animals more than once and even experienced some animals quite up close. Our driver and guide, Benna, was professional and very knowledgeable. He was efficient in getting us to places and found ways to help us get the best experiences. Benna seemed to know every corner of every park we went to sometimes helping other guides who were lost - these parks are huge with many sections of different winding crossing roads that all seem to look the same. He also had good knowledge on how these animals behave and what they might do next. With some luck and Benna’s good work we got to see some “really cool” things as my kids put it. It’s a memorable experience of a lifetime that my kids and I will look back on for years and decades to come. A couple of tips if you’ve read this far. One, book as early as you can to get the better accommodations as there doesn’t seem to be that many and all the companies use the same set of lodges and hotels. Two, be good to your driver and guide. Their knowledge and effort aren’t just to get you to places and help you enjoy the best safari. What I learned is they’re also there to help ensure your safety to the point that they will jump in front between you and a threatening animal if necessary to protect you first. Enjoy Kenya!

The review below is the personal opinion of happy and not that of SafariBookings.
Professionalism of the Tour Guide
3/5

Overall experience from the tour agency, the reply on pre-sales is in advance. They patiently designed the all needs and wants of the customers. But the experience during the safari with our tour guide+ driver, I think the professionalism will need to improve, they are always late, I can understand the traffic issue in the cities, but as a driver you will need to know the prediction and arrive earlier to keep the customer satisfy. Due to our late reservation, we did not manage to book a nearer safari hotel in masai mara, thus we not able to got the chance to go on the center of mara triangle, suggest the tour agency if so, please arrange the tour to enter to deep middle of the safari earlier, but not keep taking round at the outside area.

Exceptional Safari Experience with Brian & Carol
5/5

Thank you Kameraz of Afrika, From start to finish, every aspect of the journey was meticulously planned and flawlessly executed, leaving my family with pleasent memories from Hotel Stay in Narobi or staff of Mara Serena Safari Lodge, who took exceptional the care for elderly guest and even the highly courtesius knoweldgeable guides.

In conclusion, I cannot recommend Kameraz of Afrika highly enough for anyone seeking an unforgettable safari experience. Their attention to detail, personalized service, and commitment to sustainability set them apart as a premier safari agent.

Booked us an excellent safari but communication during the trip itself could be improved
4/5

Booked an andbeyond safari with kameraz of afrika and had an amazing time overall. They charged a fair price, and communication in the planning stage was great.
My only complaint is that approaching the trip and during the trip the communication was much worse.
For example, they booked us a driver but didnt give us any details on the day of like a name, vehicle, eta, etc. We also had a change in our airline company last minute that neither us or the driver was aware of until we got to the airport and had to drive to another terminal. Finally, there was severe flooding that might have impacted our safari if it was a few days earlier but we didnt get any clear or detailed updates from them, and I had to reach out to our camp directly to get details.
Overall they did a fair job and i wouldnt let those minor communication issues deter someone from booking with them for a good itinerary at a good price!

Amazing Safari
5/5

We had the pleasure of spending four nights and five days with Sammy as our guide and driver.
He was extremely punctual picking us up from our hotel in Nairobi. He filled us in on everything we were going to be doing and how the safari was going to pan out.
We had a fantastic time touring all the spots listed in our itinerary. The safaris far exceeded our expectations. We mentioned to Sammy that we had done a previous safari in Kruger but didn’t see any rhinos and only one lion. He told us that he will make sure we get to see both rhinos and lions. Well, he certainly delivered on those!
Sammy was very knowledgeable about the area and the animals that frequented certain locales making sure we got the opportunity to see everything there was to see.
With being on a private tour, we were able to stop whenever necessary so my husband could take photos. This was a nice touch.
All of our accommodations were top notch. We certainly felt we were living the dream.
I would highly recommend Kameraz of Africa.

Kameraz of Afrika offered us a lifetime experience - James was an amazing tour guide
5/5

The top guide was very polite and always eager to help. He was explaining us everything regarding the animals and the nature. All the hotels in the package were above expectations and the trip well organised. I would come back in Kenya and book again with Kameraz of Afrika
