Thank you James!
I’ve enjoyed a 9 unforgettable days with James.
We have visited Masai Mara, lake Nakuru, lake Naivasha, Amboseli and Tsavo and everything was amazing.
James was a very attentive guide, a very knowledgeable person and a very pleasant company for this experience.
After working for over 20 years in the field under the big companies, he decided to open his own little family run company.
So you’re not only a number like you would, but you will get to build a real connection with him and you will feel a real part of the project.
So the tour can be customised according to all your needs. He can basically built a tailor made experience for you.
I’ve contacted him via WhatsApp and then we planned together the safari. He answered at my 45827269 questions ( sorry James

James was kind & very knowledgable and we felt very comfortable traveling with him.Definitely A+ exp
We had the most remarkable family tour with james ( marurumi safaris). Not only everything was perfect, but we felt, in every instance, that our guide cared about us, both the kids and adults, and did his best to make this trip memorable.
For our well-traveled children (age 2-9) and adults this definitely has become the most eye-opening, adventurous, and stunning journey of our lifes - something we will remember, draw upon, and cherish for many years to come. James was amazing from airport pick up to drop off .
We definitely will be back!

Everything was perfectly organized from beginning to end! It couldn’t have been better :)
Our experience in Kenya was so wonderful in every way! Our guide James was an expert driver, and was great at tracking the potential locations of the animals to get us very close to the action. He is truly a professional. He was so knowledgeable about the area and knew all there is to know about the animals we saw. He was funny and just amazing really! :) Thanks again!
We also were very happy with all the accommodations we stayed at, from the food to the staff, every place we stayed at was super!
Overall, everything went perfectly and truly exceeded our expectations. It was wonderful to feel like we were in good hands the whole time and kept safe and happy!

A beautiful, educational, and never to forget trip!
We went on a 5-day private safari tour with James and could not have wished for a better tour guide. He always has a smile on his face and made us feel very comfortable at all times.
He knows all the parks we visited very well and took as much time we wanted to see even the smallest bird. He educated us on animal behaviour and the different species in each park and showed us the most beautiful spots. The highlight was the leopard he spotted himself.
He is flexible when it comes to scheduling the drives and asks his clients constantly for input.
Highly recommended!

James is passionate and makes you feel at home
If I could give this experience more than 5 stars I would. I learned so much during the tour and got to experience some really rare sightings like the famous fab 5 hunting down their meal, a white rhino and a leopard casually strolling by our van. James is so passionate and knowledgeable about the safari and will take you through an unforgettable experience. He is an amazing person too, always taking care of his community and colleagues throughout the tours.

The only regret is that we didn’t book a longer safari!
I went on a 5 day safari in September 2019 with two friends and James was our tour guide. James is warm, friendly, and a good human being!
More than that, James was so knowledgeable about the places we visited and the animals we saw. He knew where to go and when, and told us all about each animal in detail. We trusted James’s tips and guidance and he made the whole experience amazing. There were other vacationers on safari that were jealous we had seen animals that are rarely spotted in the wild!
Don’t look any further if you’re searching for an amazing person and tour guide. James made our trip absolutely unforgettable, and I can’t wait to see James again when I go back to Africa.
Do yourself a favor, book with James, and trust all his judgement and guidance on safari. You won’t regret it for a single moment!

after Covid pandemic we really wanted to go as far as possible.. A friend suggested me why not Africa.. at the beginning we were a bit unsure because we never been there. The entire journey was more than I expected. Our Tour Guide “James “ was amazing he showed me and my family a lot things!! Maasai Mara was one of my favourite..!
Do not forget to ask for Amboselli game we loved it.
the price was Ok and worth because we have seen a lot in such a short time and very very friendly guide !!!!!
