Well organized flexible and competent Safari Operator
5/5

I contacted John initially while browsing different safari options. Despite changing my mind multiple times, John was patient and helped us select our ideal safari. We did the 7day tour of masai mara, nakuru, naivasha and amboseli. Our guide Antony was phenomenal and a very comptetent driver on difficult roads. He was flexible and listened to our requests about game drives. Overall, we really enjoyed our trip and would recommend everyone to use Camptrek!

Exactly what we wanted
5/5

Camptrek helped to find us the perfect tour that hit all spots we wanted to see. From the initial booking period, Camptrek was very flexible in our changing itineraries and amount of people coming (as we had a few drop out). Both our Kenyan and Tanzanian guides were unbelievably skilled in finding all of the animals we wanted to see, and showed us many experiences that we were not even aware of. Wouldn't have changed a thing; we are very grateful for the experience!

Professional from the first minute
5/5

From the moment I contacted John I felt in very good hands, we had a spontaneous call were he answered all my questions directly. Together we brainstormed about the route and with John’s valuable input we decided to go for a 8 day safari with a final drop off in Diani Beach.

We were received by John and Anthony (our driver) right after landing in Nairobi at the airport at 4am.
We then directly headed to Masai Mara.
Anthony was an excellent driver and guide we always felt very safe.
The Sopa lodges in Mara and Lake Nakuru were outstanding and also Kibo in Amboseli was perfect.
Due to Anthony’s great experience in spotting animals we already saw 4/5 big five animals on the first two days. The following days were also very successful and exciting.

A big thank you to Anthony and John for this unforgettable experience. I will definitely recommend Camptrek safaris to my family and friends.
Asante Sana !!

Personal touch and deliver excellence
5/5

My boyfriend and I have made a lot of trips, we never went to Africa as it always seemed like a big step from what we are used to.

From the moment we booked with camptrek we felt save and comfortable. The amount of love and care they put in their work is unbelieveable. Papa John took his time to answer all of our questions and concerns beforehand. He planned a perfect customized trip, with a clear and elaborate itinerary. Still we weren’t really sure what to expect but looking back now it was AMAZING!

The Safari was beautiful, like we were part of a beautiful movie/book.

The scenery, the national parks, the animals, John the guide, the road trip through the country, the 4x4, the popup roof, the hotels, lodges, camps, the coffee breaks, the food, the views we were in AWE, truly perfect. What a rush, highly recommended!

Tip: arrange 10 days off, save some money, call john & go

Special shoutout to binoculair-eyed John(our guide). The way you guided us was out of this world. You found all the animals, are very knowledgeable, knew everybody and made always sure we were OK and having a laugh. We were bawling when we had to say goodbye.

John, Lydia, Ben and Papa John Camptrek Safaris Kenya Asante Sana.

Love,
Lo and Pum

Very well organized, excellent service and pricing!!
5/5

We were picked up from the Hilton Nairobi Airport 7:30am and dropped off 6 days later at 8:30pm after the most wonderful trip. John our driver was fantastic. He knew everything about the animals at each park. Amboseli for 2 nights, Lake Nakuru for 1 night and Masai Mara for 2 nights. John knew exactly where to go to get the best views and he got us there very quickly and safely. An amazing driver and conversationalist. 5*’s +. And John Ok, the organizer did an amazing job putting our trip together. Just my wife and I aboard the van. Benson our driver from Narok to the airport was also very good. Heavily recommend these guys.

The best safari experience with Camptrek
5/5

We contacted "Camptrek" as a private couple on our own on "safaribookings" website from France. Camptrek's offer stood out to us for the best option regarding the trip and high-quality accommodation. John's communication was excellent and his assistance very helpful as he even assisted us with our visa procedures. We were picked up at our hotel by our driver and guide called Mnyama. With his years of expertise he ensured an exemplary drive on the roads and tracks and thanks to his knowledge of nature,he was always showing us the most interesting sights. We could see the Big Five and sometimes had the privilege of being the sole witnesses to enjoyable scenes with lions, rhinos, léopards..etc. . A big thank you to Camptrek and to the best driver in Kenya "Mnyama" , for making this experience unforgettable to us. Asante Sana kwa timu nzima!

Amazing honeymoon!
5/5

My husband and I were looking to have an epic honeymoon in East Africa, and Camptrek made it happen! The trip itself was perfect - the activities were well planned, the accommodations were comfortable and the guides were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. There are a few things we wanted to do that weren’t part of the original itinerary (museum visits, etc.) that they helped to arrange. The pre-trip communication was excellent. Camptrek provided detailed packing lists and had a few calls with us to ensure we had the correct visa paperwork. I would highly recommend Camptrek to anyone looking for a stress-free trip!

Excellent communication, highly flexible and amazingly professional/friendly
5/5

Amazing safari experience. From the start, John was extremely helpful with creating an itinerary that suited our needs. At the last moment, we had some flight issues that led to a delay, but the Camptrek Safaris Team was highly flexible to arrange alternative arrangements. This was beyond what we would normally expect from a touring company.

Our guide, Jackson, was highly knowledgable about the flora and fauna throughout the safari as well as Kenyan culture and history. We are lucky to have had him as our guide. He was available from the very start until drop off at the airport late in the evening. His professionalism, friendliness and hospitality were amazing.

Thank you John and Jackson for giving us such an amazing experience! I would recommend Camptrek Safaris to anyone considering a safari in this region.

Thoroughly recommend CampTrek Safais, we were so well looked after and had an amazing time.
5/5

My husband and I went on Camptreks 10 day Kenya and Tanzania safari in September 2023. We had an amazing time and highly recommend CampTrek for their professionalism, knowledge and friendliness. From before our trip John was extremely helpful with any questions and prompt with any communications. Our drivers were exceptionally knowledgeable, trustworthy and most importantly just great friendly people. The accommodation probably exceeded our expectations and we couldn’t put anything to fault.
A big shout out to John and his team for such a wonderful experience, we are truly thankful!
