Fabulous 18 day Kenya and Tanzania safari
We chose this company due to their excellent itinerary, high quality of lodging, excellent reviews, and great value compared to other quotes we had gotten. We had 4 different guides on different parts of our tour (due to additions we made to their normal safari schedule) and had great experiences with each one (David, John, Phillip, and Francis). Our main guide was Phillip. He was awesome! Highly knowledgeable and willing to please his guests. One thing we liked about Phil was that you could tell he was as excited to see a great wildlife encounter as we were. That was very nice. He also took the time to find out what we were interested in and tailored the trip accordingly. Each lodge had its own special charm. The food was fantastic and the unlimited bottled water definitely came in handy. You could easily tell the lodges were chosen with care. Pappa John set up a fantastic trip. Each day was an adventure and almost seemed better than the last amazing day. The communication prior to the safari was top notch. Lucy was very responsive and helpful. Within 3 days of starting our safari we had already seen the big 5. Our animal encounters were out of this world. We especially enjoyed Sheldrick Wildlife Trust’s elephant orphanage. What an fantastic organization. We highly recommend using this company. They are an amazing group of people that do everything to make your safari an adventure of a lifetime and it absolutely was! This safari was to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and will give us memories that will last a lifetime!

the best possible value for money
The trip was amazing. Our driver was very attentive and catered to us individually, advising us on the best ways to make the most of our time. The campsite is incredible, and I wish we’d had more time to enjoy the place (we only stayed one night). We saw many animals and were just missing an elephant to complete the Big Five, but we saw several others as well. The food was impeccable.

7-day wildlife and outdoor activities safari tour
We have long wanted to visit Africa, but did not know which country to start with.
Friends who have traveled to many African countries advised us to start with a safari in the reserves of Kenya.
In order to effectively plan our safari tour, we studied a large number of offers on the Internet and chose Camptrek Safari because they offered reasonable prices, had good reviews and offered us a route and accommodation that exactly matched our request.
We prepaid 30% online and the rest in cash at the start of the trip.
We were met at the airport by a company representative, who also helped us with the online booking of our tour, and handed us over to our personal guide-driver John for the next 8 days.
Our program included visits to 4 national reserves: Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli with accommodation in lodges on the territory of the reserves.
John turned out to be a highly professional guide with 17 years of experience in this field of tourism. During our tour, thanks to John's efforts, we were able to find and photograph more than 50 different animals and birds. In order to take unique photographs, John demonstrated the highest professionalism in driving and courage. Thanks to his knowledge of animals and their habits, he found for us lions and lionesses, cheetahs, rhinoceroses and hippos.
In each of the parks, John was able to show us their uniqueness.
The company, in accordance with our request, provided us with accommodation in excellent locations. Waking up in the morning, we met zebras, waterbucks, and monkeys at our doors. We felt like we were part of the African nature. This is impossible to forget.
All lodges fully met our expectations, and some of them even exceeded them. Each of the lodges was unique and located in picturesque locations.
Moving between parks by car allowed us to experience the full flavor of the diverse landscapes of Kenya in different climatic zones: on the plains, in the foothills and in the mountains.
In retrospect, we think it might have been better to combine travel between the parks by car and by plane, since the 6-hour drive from Amboseli to Nairobi was somewhat tedious. It was only thanks to John's excellent character and efforts that we covered this distance quite easily and cheerfully.
Throughout the entire tour, John followed our wishes and tried to make our trips not only educational, but also fun.
We did not regret choosing Camptrek Safari for our acquaintance with Africa.

Well organised, professional, the best
Beautiful, amazing experience with the best guides Mambo and Eric.
They teached us so much stuff about Kenya and Nature beauty.
Really we couldn't ask for a better experience!

Very well organised
As our first trip to Kenya we were unsure on how to properly plan a trip and what company to choose. Luckily Margaret was super responsive and designed our trip according to the dates, flight times and our preferences.
After a warm welcome at the airport she introduced us to our tour guide Eric who was very accommodating and knowledgeable.
Hotels were nice and staff welcoming. However, the last hotel might need some updating and requires stocking of the bar (no soft drink, no beer no wine and no brew coffee - we were wondering why they bother to open the bar) - but this not reflect on Camptrek as a company. Thank you Margaret and Eric for making this trip wonderful and memorable.

“A Journey of a Lifetime – Unforgettable Safari Experience!”
I can’t recommend this safari enough! From the moment we arrived, the adventure unfolded into a series of breathtaking moments that left us in awe. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and attentive to every detail, sharing fascinating insights into the animals and landscapes that surrounded us.
Each game drive was a thrilling experience, and we saw everything from majestic elephants and graceful giraffes to elusive leopards and even a pride of lions on the hunt. The close encounters were heart-stopping and exhilarating, but we always felt safe in the hands of our guide, who had a remarkable eye for spotting wildlife.
The accommodations were luxurious yet felt perfectly in tune with nature. Waking up to a sunrise over the savannah, with the sounds of wildlife in the distance, was magical. Meals were fantastic too—fresh, delicious, and with an authentic taste of local flavors.
Every moment on this safari felt surreal and left us with memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re looking to connect with nature on a profound level, this safari is an absolute must!
Highlights:
• Expert guides with incredible knowledge of wildlife and ecology.
• Thrilling, safe encounters with a wide variety of animals.
• Stunning, comfortable lodges that blend into the natural environment.
• Breathtaking views and unforgettable sunrise and sunset moments.
Can’t wait to go back!

Camptrek, John and guides did everything to ensure our Kenya/Tanzania Safari was unforgettable!
John from Camptrek was wonderful to work with during the planning of our trip. He was very helpful in answering any questions we had in preparation for our trip. Of all the tour operations, Camptrek put together an amazing 16 day Safari to Kenya and Tanzania. From the very first day, John and the other tour guides were friendly, warm and accommodating. They each went out of their way to make sure that everyone in our group’s personal needs were met during the entire trip. We were on the trip with our 86 year old mother and they were very solicitous, wanting to be sure that she was comfortable and that she had everything she needed. The accommodations that Camptrek arranged were excellent and the grounds of some of the camps were stunning. Our agenda was jam packed with game drives, visits to animal orphanages, sanctuaries and visiting tribal people. During our game drives we were lucky enough to be able to see the Big 5, the Ugly 5 and numerous other creatures. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable, sharing information on each of the animals, including their habits, lifespan and anecdotal stories. Overall, it was an unbelievable experience thanks to John and Camptrek. This was a once in a lifetime trip but should we decide to take some of our other family members on a trip to Africa, we would definitely do the trip through Camptrek. It is without any reservation that we recommend Camptrek for your safari.

Best Tour Experience
This was my third African Safari to Kenya and Tanzania. Camptrek was by far the best operator. They offer the best value, including price, knowledgeable, guides, accommodations, and flexibility. By the end of the trip, it felt like the guides and the owner were part of our family.

Reliable, nice and fast response
Guide Lucy and driver Robot are really reliable and fast response. Hotels are mostly clean, safe and beautiful, except the one in Lake Nakuru. The lodge in Lake Naivasha surprised me by lakeview and animals. Wonderful memory! I will recommend Camptrek to my Chinese friends.
