Very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and friendly.
5/5

The itinerary is what made us chose this safari as it sounded great. Lots of communication with Lewis in the months prior to our start date.
We visited 4 different reserves which gave us varied experiences and ranges of wildlife.
Lewis and Jessie were superb. Jessie, our driver, navigated the tracks and could spot an animal which once we couldn't even identify with binoculars.
Lewis took loads of fantastic photos and videos which were incredible.
Best experience ever, exceeded my expectations. Definetly recommend it.

Thanks to the entire Imara Safari Africa team, we were able to touch the spirit of Kenya, not just to be safari participants, but to experience every moment in the most magnificent way.
We love you Lewis, Patrick, Wendy:)) we miss you so much, but we hope to see you very soon:))

The most amazing Kenya safari
5/5

We arranged our safari with Lewis and Imara Africa via WhatsApp where Lewis sent me lots of links for various places, helped me choose dates, pick up and drop off places etc.



We decided on a pick up from our hotel in Nairobi where all of the staff met us with the private vehicle and our driver James. We drove to Amboseli National Park where we stayed for 1 night at the Elewana Tortilis Camp with food and drink included. The drive into the park itself was amazing and we saw lots of animals. We then had another safari drive later in the afternoon.



The following morning we drove to Tsavo West and Salt Lick Lodge where we were staying for 2 nights and again a game drive on the way in and another one in the afternoon.



On the second day we had a full day game drive in Tsavo East and the following morning James drove us to Mombasa where we were flying to Zanzibar.



James was an amazing driver and we saw all of the big 5 while we were there. He made sure we had plenty of water in the truck and got us to each place safely. Lewis of course made sure everything was arranged in advance so checking in was smooth and our accommodation was amazing!



I will be planning another safari for the Masai Mara and I have no hesitation in using Imara Africa Safaris.

Diligent, Quick, Comprehensive, Trustworthy
5/5

They have safaris within some countries in East Africa offering a wide range of possibilities from very short ones to longer stays. They answer the email super quickly, their English is perfect and all the details are provided in a timely manner. Once there, lodges included are excellent and the driver knows about the national parks and the animals too, so he becomes a guide aside from a driver.

Imara Africa Safaris are a great company. This was my first safari and I really didn’t need to do anything. Every question I had was answered almost immediately. Every place we stayed was perfectly fine for us. PATRICK our guide was amazing. He knew how to anticipate the animals so we got amazing photos. He is patient, kind, and amazing driver. Lastly, thank you to Kenya for mandating conservation and preservation.

What a great company - had a great trip with Lewis and his team. They even told the lodge it was our wedding anniversary and they had Masai sing to us and give us a cake making it very special. Would not hesitate to recommend Imara Africa Safaris
Many thanks

An absolutely perfect safari experience for my family and I
5/5

Luis, Patrick, and Ian were absolutely flawless during our time with them. They made us feel like family from the beginning, and were always willing to go above and beyond to accommodate any needs or questions we may have had. We were able to see so many animals in the two parks we visited, and when it was allowed, we had opportunities to get quite close to the animals to just be able to admire them and get amazing photos.

Thank you so much to you three for making this experience for my family and I unforgettable. Imara Africa Safaris has my fully recommendation, don't look any further, and just book with them!

Mt. Kenya Trek
5/5

Had an amazing trek up Mt. Kenya with Imara Africa Safaris. No complaints whatsoever. The guys were very professional & knowledgeable. Food was delicious & filling. I’ve done a bunch of international trekking, so I knew what to expect. The accommodations were fine. We made it to the summit in time for a beautiful sunrise. I would book with them again.

It's all about the people when choosing a safari operator
5/5

My boyfriend and I did a 4 day trip with Lewis around the Kenyan Great Lakes region. From the moment we reached out to Lewis, we felt that we should go with Imara safaris as we found him to be extremely responsive and attentive. Lewis took great care accommodating a rather complex and non-standard itinerary to fit in everything we were interested in seeing in a short time period of time.

Lewis made the planning process very streamlined by offering us curated experiences, taking care of bookings and park fees, and working with us to understand what we would enjoy.

During the trip itself, Lewis and our driver, Patrick, were extremely professional and always showed up on time. They made themselves very accessible in case we needed anything and accommodated a last-minute change to our flight.

We are especially grateful to Patrick for navigating extremely challenging driving conditions between Naivasha and Nairobi, we feel he saved our lives with his expertise on multiple occasions.

I would recommend going with Imara safaris for your Kenya adventure, these folks will make sure that you arrive where you need to go and have a great experience tailored to your interests.
