Amazing Trip, Highly Recommend. Great experience with Charles and Salina Wild
5/5

We had a brilliant trip with Salina Wild. Communication was great before the trip - every question answered and lots of helpful tips. We loved spending time with our guide, Charles. He was incredibly friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the animals, areas we visited and life as a guide. We learnt so much and saw all the big 5 several times. In our trip we went to Masai Mari, Nakuru, Amboselli and Diani Beach. Everywhere we went had something new and beautiful to see, ranging from multiple lion prides, illusive leapards or herds of dozens of elephants. We even spotted a pod of wild dolphins at the marine park in Diani beach. We'd highly recommend this once-in-a lifetime trip with Salina - and you'll be extra happy if you end up with Charles. Thank you Charles and Henry, and all the staff at every hotel. We will never forget waking up to a herd of zebra walking past the tent.

5/5

Excellent tour.
Great hotels and Jonathan was a wonderful driver cum guide. He was always smilng, very knowledgeable about the wildlife and always knew the best placement for getting superb photographs.
We will always ask for him whenever we return.
Food could be better . The Quality of Indian food was not good.

Need a better car.
But hotel rooms were very good.

Excellent services!
5/5

Salina wild Adventures is a reliable tours company that exceeds clients expectation.

I visited Kenya in November 2022 for a week. Isabellah helped me plan our safari. She was knowledgeable on parks & various accomodations. She recommended a private tour with midrange accomodation. I can confirm that what Salina wild adventures delivered exceeded my expectations. My family was also satisfied.
Our Driver guide, Jared was very good with us. He was patient with us and answered all our questions regarding the animals. We also managed to see all the Big 5.
We visited Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha & Lake Nakuru National park.
I highly recommend this company to anyone planning to visit Kenya.

5/5

Charles helped us plan our safari. He was helpful in suggesting accomodation options that fitted by our budget & safari desires. On our day of arrival, he met us at Jomo Kenyatta international Airport & introduced us to our driver/guide, Jared before we could start the safari.
We had a 9 day safari in Kenyan popular parks of Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli, Tsavo West & Tsavo east national parks! Jared was very knowledgeable about the parks & the animals. He was also honest & ready to help whenever we needed hi help.
I recommend Salina wild Adventures to people planning to travel to Kenya & even East Africa.

5/5


Our organisation held an end year workshop that was also attended by our donors from Denmark. After the workshop the donors suggested they wanted to visit Kenya parks. A mutual friend linked me up to Charles and he was able to organise a five day private safari to Lake Nakuru, Naivasha and Masai Mara. Despite the short notice, the safari was well planned and our donors were satisfied.
Thank you very much Salina Wild Adventures team for making our donors happy.

Isabellah was always available to help us plan our safari. She would reply to our mails and Whatsapp messages even at times that were believed were very late in Kenya. On the day we arrived in Kenya she was there & introduced us to Ken, our driver guide. Our 3 day safari in Masai Mara National Reserve was amazing. Ken was funny and his knowledge of flora and fauna is out of this world.
I recommend Salina Wild Adventures for those people wishing to visit Kenya.

Commitment and service delivery at its best!
5/5

We took a 6 day safari covering Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru & Amboseli national park. The tour was well planned by Charles and executed by Jared our guide. We managed to see all the big 5 both in Mara and Amboseli among other predators and grazers. We also saw hippo and crocodiles at Mara river. Jared knew the best routes to warrant sighting of of the wildlife. His sense of humour was amazing and he was always patient with us. Salina Wild Adventures did a commendable job. Highly recommended.

5/5

I have nothing but good things to say about Charles and Phillip. The entire trip, we were never in the dark about what to expect or what came next. The Masai Mara reserve is a beautiful sight to see and I was happy to make a bucket list accommplishment by finally seeing the savannah. I'm very happy with my decision to choose Salina Wild adventures and I happily recommend them!

Exceptional, Amazing experiences!
5/5

We booked a seven day safari with Salina wild adventures which started on 5th of April 2023. Upon arrival at the airport, Charles was already waiting for us and the warm reception we received culminated to be true reflection of all our safari encounter. He then transferred us to our hotel for an overnight stay, which was a few metres from the airport.
On the first morning of our safari we were met promptly at our hotel by our driver/guide Philip. You could immediately tell that we had booked with the right company as he presented professional in safari attire and the Logo’d Toyota Landcruiser was certainly the perfect vehicle for what lay ahead.

We had a good start when we asked Philip whether we could make a quick stop to grab some breakfast and to go and find an ATM to withdraw some cash for tips etc. He was willing to do this. This willingness was a theme that continued throughout our safari.
We found the “Big Kenya” safari, that we had booked, to be perfect for our requirements. All the safari parks were different and gave us different experiences of landscapes, wildlife and accommodation.
Our first night in Tsavo West was at the Severin park lodge. This was to be an unforgettable one as we retired to the sounds of Hyenas and were captivated by Impala and Giraffes walking past our (Glamping) tent.
The food served at our accommodations varied between a la carte menus and buffets, all of which were of very good standard.
At Tsavo West we were fortunate to see a leopard at close quarters, who was feasting on a zebra carcass.

Amboseli was probably my favourite park due to the variety of wildlife, particularly in the marshes. Hippos, elephants, giraffes, zebra, buffalo, wildebeest etc grazing in perfect harmony.
Our boat trip in Lake Navaisha was another highlight, especially with the diversity of birds that we were able to see.

Finally, at the Masai Mara, we were fortunate to see a pride of lions that had just killed a buffalo and calf. Philip was able to skilfully manoeuvre our vehicle into a position that maximised our view and photo opportunities.
It was a wonderful experience and my family was really happy for what the whole trip turn out to be. I STRONGLY recommend Salina wild adventures for anyone who wants to try safari in East Africa.

Good experience
4/5

We had a good first safari experience with Salina Wild Adventures.
Charles is very kind and avalaible.
During our 6 day safari, we had 3 different drivers-guide (so 3 cars and 3 different groups), which was ok for us but there was a little disorganization because of it. Nevertheless, Charles managed it and it was ok.
Our drivers were determined to find animals but we think they could have explained us more things while searching for animals. It is always better to learn things!
Accommodations and food were good.
