Customer Oriented
5/5

Pappa John is knowledgeable well educated and well spoken driver, tour guide. He always keeps in mind the customer’s needs and requirements and drives accordingly meaning gentle on the speed bumps, not risking overtaking on a single lane highway. He would always stop for photo op, and asks us if we are ready to go.

Exceptional !
5/5

My wife and I were fortunate enough to have John as our guide in Amboseli. He helped us get our luggage which was lost by Air France (always pack for emergencies in your carry on) before heading from Nairobi to Amboseli. After a 4 hour drive to the Kibo Safari Camp, he helped us get checked in and settled. During the afternoon game drive, John went well above in explaining what we were seeing, the history of the park, and he made sure we were able to see as many of the animals as possible including a quick pull over stop to watch the sunset behind giraffes (photo opportunities were everywhere but this was special). We toured with John at Amboseli for a full day and a half plus traveling times. His personality, attention to detail and concern for us was exemplary. We HIGHLY recommend John and were extremely happy with him! Steve and Pilar.

Knowledgeable and Thoughtful would be the adjective I would describe of John.
5/5

The whole journey is very smooth.

We enjoyed the knowledge John told us, for example the wild animals, the history, the basic information about Kenya, and so on. He is like a professor to us for the past few days.

John is always friendly and patient. As we are not from an English speaking country, he would explain until we understood what he meant. In this case, I would say the communications are very clear.

In turns of the service, John is very thoughtful. He prepared everything that we might need. For example, when we went for a boat trip & walking safari, he prepared the drinking water for us. Not to mention the game drives, the binoculars are provided for us to observe the wild animals.

In conclusion, I would like to highly recommend John as all my family members enjoyed this trip a lot.

The best Safaritrip ever!!
5/5

We were a group in Kenya, Nairobi, who where lucky to be on Safari two times. One of them with John. He was an excellent guide, he was calm, he showed a lot of respect towards the animals, he gave us good information about the animals, he was polite and flexible. He was great. We had also another dafarotrip with another company that just confirmed our thapught about how good John was. Cause this other safaritrip couldnt compare to the trip John gave us. John was the best! I will give him my warmest recommendation

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!

Perfect trip
5/5

John is an excellent guide. He knows a lot about nature and animals and is happy to share his knowledge. We saw so many animals during our trip, including the big 5. He gave good advice about the itinerary and things we could do in the area. In short we had the best time and made so many good memories.
