top organisation, top communication, top hospitality, very knowledgable driver
5/5

We had a 17-day holiday in Kenya with Crimson Brooke Safaris with 8 days of safari in four national parks and 8 days at two different beaches as well as a day in Nairobi and the organisation could not have been better! All of our wishes were respected and fulfilled, the communication before and while our trip with Beatrice and Amos was always easy and without any problems. The company's driver Reuven is an absolutely nice and accomodating man with a very big knowledge about animals, nature and history. The special thing about our experience with Crimson Brooke Safaris was the "personal touch" - having breakfast, lunch or dinner with Amos and Betty when we had our stopovers in Nairobi felt like meeting friends.
100% recommendation!

Super efficient and personalized attention! A once in a lifetime guaranteed experience!
5/5

The whole experience was fantastic. From booking the safari to the last day when we were dropped at the airport, everything was great! Communication was super smooth, Crimson Brooker Safaris was happy to offer us different options according to our preferences very quickly and during the trip they were checking in on us often to ensure we were enjoying the experience and everything was to our liking.

Our guide, Sammy, was a really experienced guide, who took us to see all possible animals! I was thinking we would be lucky to see half of what we did so thanks to him my expectations were really exceeded!

All the lodges and camps were really comfortable and of a very high standard! I definitely recommend Crimson Brooke Safaris!

Efficient & friendly safari tours
4/5

Crimson Brooke Safaris were very responsive from the beginning. We had quotes from 6 different safari operators, and we chose this one because they look more professional than the rest. We even went for a final lunch with them at a very nice restaurant, which they covered.
The safari itself was great! We saw most of the animals we were looking for, and Sammy (our guide) was very good. He made a lot of effort to take us to new activities and different spots to see the wildlife at Masai and Amboselli.
The only thing I didn't like much is that most of the time we felt like we were expected to spend lots of money at curio shops, extra activities and tips. Everyone was looking for us to spend more money. We had to say no to extra activities a few times because it was very tight in time and we like to also enjoy taking time and rest.
I recommend to fellow travelers to only stop at 1 curio shop on your way back, we stopped at least in 4 different curio shops and lost a lot of time there. Also do not always say yes to extra activities (not included in the original program), it is probably a commission led recommendation.
Finally, do your research, we paid quite some money to stay outside the reserves and it is possible to stay inside the reserve, this option was never given to us.

Amazing hospitality. Attention to details
5/5

We traveled to Kenya in June of 2023. Before starting travel they established a WhatsApp group which helped in communicating easily. Their responses to our questions were pretty fast too. The itinerary and hotels were tailored to our needs and our input was sought. All the places we stayed were good but the one in Maasai Mara was the best in terms of comfort, service, food options. Our tour guide and driver was very pleasant, knowledgeable and courteous. He is a treasure trove of information about anything in Kenya whether it was about the animals, their habits, birds, Kenya’s geography, economy, history! Beatrice and Amos gave us beautiful gifts that came in handy during the travel. They also arranged for a dongle in the vehicle so we had seamless internet access everywhere. Overall we had an amazing time in this fabulous country and our stay was made memorable by the Crimson Brooke guys with their hospitality, reliability and superb service! Would recommend them whole heartedly!

Amazing African Safari - Exceptional Guide - Excellent arrangements
5/5

We had a great time visiting Kenya and experiencing the great African safari. We visited Amboselli NP, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. Amos & Betty picked some excellent resorts for us in all three locations as well as in Nairobi. Rueben, our safari guide and driver was exceptional - his breadth of experience and wide knowledge of Africa, the widlife, the culture, the people - this was the best part of the trip. The highlight of the trip is the Masai Mara NP. The Mara Maisha camp was the highlight of the trip - an exceptional property with caring staff and excellent food and facilities.

Africa is bucket level stuff. Do not miss it. And trust Amos and Betty to put together an exceptional trip and arrangements for you.

Perfect Safari Experience
5/5

We booked our family safari with Crimson Brooke Safaris - and it was the best decision we could have made. We were quite particular about what we wanted in our safari experience and the communication from Crimson Brooke was absolutely second to none despite our constant and frequent questions or requested changes - nothing was a hassle to them at all.

All elements of the Safari were first class - from the pickup at our hotel in Nairobi to the drop off, everything was perfect. Our accomodation was brilliantly unqiue and a special mention must go to our driver Reuben who navigated the Masai Mara like an expert, consistently spotting unqiue wildlife and having us on the scene before any other parties - we can't say enough great things.

This was one the best experiences we have had and when we come back next time we will have absolutely no hesitation reaching out to Amos and Betty at Crimson Brooke Safari's to do it all again - their care and attention to detail in ensuring our satisifcation with every facet of the safari was absolutely first class.

Really wonderful experience! Absolutely recommend it and hope to repeat it with family!!!
5/5

The service, value for money, communications, reliability, and everything else about the time spent with Crimson Brooke Safaris was great! I recommend it to everyone.
I came across Crimson Brooke Safaris and Beatrice Okumu thanks to my friend in Nairobi. I was travelling to Nairobi with a friend when one of our common friends recommended and infact booked us for a day with Beatrice and her team. I didn't know what to expect but was absolutely impressed by their preparedness, timeliness, and professionalism. They came with an absolutely top class pick up vehicle at the airport. From that point onwards, the team stayed with us through the day for an absolutely memorable safari experience, the shopping, food, and every other selection through the day was flexible but A-level. We saw all the animals that there are to see at the Nairobi national park -- Zebras, Giraffes, Lions, Ostriches etc -- and had the best meal in Nairobi, explored the market, shopped around, and did some local sightseeing. We didn't have to worry about planning and all key aspects like safety, economics, and other aspects were addressed by the team. If you're planning -- with family, friends or alone -- will totally recommend it!!

Crimson Brooke Safaris go above and beyond to provide their clients the experience they are seeking
5/5

From the first communications with Crimson Brookes Safaris we knew we had made the right choice. They are extremely knowledgeable and provided us with a tailor made tour which ticked all of our desires, for a competitive price.
We appreciate how Betty and Amos did everything in person, from the warm welcome at the airport, to the thoughtful items in the gift bags and check in’s along the tour to make sure everything was going as planned. It was reassuring to know they were just a phone call away if needed.
The accommodations were beyond our expectations and we especially enjoyed the luxury tented camp! The perfect location to base ourselves.
We can not recommend Crimson Brooke enough, and are truly grateful for the memories this trip has provided us. We look forward to our next adventure with them!
