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 !!

Responsible tour operator who will deliver a great safari experience!
5/5

Before selecting Camptrek, we approached quite a few different tour operators and Camptrek offered us the most value for the quotation.
We started off the tour in Kenya with Steven, covering Samburu, Lake Nakuru and Naivasha and Maasai Mara. Steven was enthusiastic with a great eye and made sure we got to see the special 5, ugly 5, big 5, all within the first week. It was really exciting chasing the animals and beautiful sunsets with Steven.
Our second guide was Titho who was witty and humorous, a safe driver who filled our trip with quizzes about the animals as we navigated through serengeti, ngorongoro, and tarangire.
At the last leg of our trip back in Kenya, Eric who had the burden of impressing us after we’d seen so many animals, he still managed to wow us with the magnificent sight of 16 lions feeding and the roar of a protective mother lioness.
It was a great once in a lifetime experience, big thanks to all our guides and Camptrek!

Action-packed
5/5

If you are after the ultra pro max of game drives, you’ve met your match. Being the F1 fanatic he is, Steve lives on a motto of the efficient and effective. Your game drives will be on 1.5x speed but don’t be fooled, his 50/20 vision will spot things not visible to the naked eye. If you aspire to be the Pokémon master of safari, you’ll be sure to catch them all with Steve and have the best time while at it. He’s also so knowledgeable about the animals and the routes which made for an action-packed experience. We were so sad to depart with him and wish him all the best in his future endeavours. See you around, Mr International!

Hands down the best 15 day safari with kind, professional, knowledgeable Camptrek Safaris!
5/5

Our 15 day safari in Kenya and Tanzania was absolutely fantastic!!! Even though I read the overview and saw all the pictures, I really had no idea what I was in for. We had 7 people, 2 jeeps and WOW what a dream!!! First of all, John put together an amazing schedule and is so kind, professional and knowledgeable. It really wasn’t just a Safari as I had imagined… it was meeting so many kind people, learning about their culture, seeing and learning about the animals up close from guides with so much knowledge and getting excited from their excitement for what we were seeing! Elephants, 3 types of giraffes, 2 types of zebras, wildebeest, lions, cheetahs, leopards, pumbas, hippopotamus, rhinoceros, baboons, hyenas, monkeys, all kinds of birds, water buffalo, acacia trees and baobab trees (tree of life)….just wow. All of our guides were the best! Thank you John, Anthony, Eric, Good Luck, Hamisi, and Anthony #2! The first day we went to an elephant orphanage and giraffe center, then off we went to Samburu, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara (and did the unforgettable sunrise hot air balloon/ breakfast), Serengeti, Tarangire and Amboselli National Parks. We got to learn and meet people from the Masai, the Hedzabe (nomadic) and the Datoga (blacksmith) tribes. The places we stayed were just terrific, I can’t say enough. And honestly, I was worried if there would be decent food for me as a vegan. Well there were so many options and very delicious! They accommodate for anyone’s dietary needs everywhere we went. It was such a beautiful trip. We were sad to say goodbye to what felt like family. Camptrek Safaris is the best and I would recommend them to anyone going on safari!

Responsive and well organized
5/5

We had such a wonderful trip with Camptrek, especially our guide Vincent and Antony. Our boy loved both of them very much. We spent 10 days in safari at Amboseli, Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire, following up with 3 days in Zanzibar island. The whole trip was smooth and our guides were very responsible and taking care of all our needs.

Vincent is the best guide you could ever find. He’s patient, genuine and thoughtful. Our family was inspired by his passion for wildlife. He is already knowledgeable about the nature and animals. However, he was as curious as we were during the trip. He is more than a guide but like a friend of ours. On the second day of our trip, Vincent invited our 11-year-old boy sitting next to him so they can exchange their knowledge of animal facts. We sincerely appreciate his accompany along the trip. We would definitely love to have Vincent as our guide again next time we visit Tanzania!
What an incredible experience. Highly recommended!!

Unforgettable experience
5/5

John is the absolute best guide! My family and I had an unforgettable time thanks to John. He’s such and experienced guide who gave us a lot of educational information about all the animals we saw. He made sure to show us everything in Masai Mara. If you are planing a Safari in Africa, definitely book with John.
My family and I can’t wait for our next safari journey!
