A competent and caring tour company.
A caring and competent tour company!
Being the Academic master in our school I was charged with the responsibility of getting a tour company that would take teachers to a trip following our school's starling performance in 2022 national examination. I had earlier encountered Salina Wild Adventures on Facebook and I decided to try them.
Charles was responsive, generous with information and offered the best rate among the tour companies that I contacted. Our 7 day trip in Masai Mara & Diani beach was perfect. From time management, hotel rooms, kindness and a listening driver-guide I give Salina Wild Adventures 100%. Given another chance I will still choose this company.
Kudos Charles!

Efficient, reliable and true to his words.
I had the pleasure of celebrating my second wedding anniversary this year 2023 February with Salina Wild Adventures, managed by Charles, on a 7-day safari to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli. I must say that the tour was an unforgettable experience. The company's organization and planning were impeccable, and our driver Phillip was knowledgeable, charming and always punctual. The wildlife sightings were amazing, and the scenery was breathtaking. The lodges and camps provided by the company were also comfortable and well-equipped. I would highly recommend Salina Wild Adventures to anyone looking for an amazing safari experience in Kenya.

very professional and kind
Expetations have met and exceeded
Awuor Escapades exceeded our safari expectations. They treated us with professionalism and respect. Sam who handles everything is very prompt and knowledgeable. Philip is a great guide. He took the time to explain everything we understood in question. Kenya is a beautiful country with warm and welcoming people. Our 8 day safari trip was an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend this travel agency.

UNFORGETTABLE SAFARI EXPERIENCE
Our 9 day safari with Awuor Escapades was supurb. Charles was responsive, articulate and available to answer all the questions we directed to him. After listening to our anticipations, he advised us to upgrade our accommodations. Sopa lodges were very comfortable with yummy meals. Our requests for special diets were catered for. Our guide was committed, jovial and experienced in spotting animals as well as their behaviours. We visited Masai village and it was nice interrupting with the local community.
Big up Charles and George, you guys made it enjoyable. My family and I recommend this company

Extraordinary
Our safari with Salina was a truly unforgettable experience. Charles did a great job coordinating all the arrangements for the 4 day excursion and stayed in constant communication to ensure everything went smoothly. Our guide and now friend Phillip was amazing. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history, geography and wildlife of the country, always had a positive and enthusiastic attitude, and above all became a real friend. It was an absolute pleasure sharing the experience with him and entrusting our journey to his guidance. The accommodations at both Lodges in Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru were of the highest quality. For all these reasons and many more I would highly recommend entrusting your Safari experience to Salina Wild Adventures.
Sincerely,
Alex Marino

Great safari for the price, but budget level is quite basic.
First off, communication with Charles was excellent. He was responsive to all of my questions and helped with other travel arrangements.
We did a 7 day budget group tour to Massai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, Hells Gate, and Amboseli. We usually had 6 people in our van and occasionally 7.
The wildlife viewing was simply incredible. The guides are constantly communicating to each other what they're finding. The parks are gorgeous, and it was interesting seeing the differences between each of them. Our guide was great about stopping for as long as we wanted at each viewing.
So much of your experience depends on the guide you get, which I don't think you'll know till the morning of your trip. Ours was great at finding the animals and answering our questions, but he didn't really offer information without us asking.
Things to be aware of:
This tour included a substantial amount of driving, and you're also in the van during all of the game drives except for Hell’s Gate.
This was a budget tour, and accommodations reflect that. We had broken mesh and zippers at one of our tents. Hot water was not consistently available. There was some construction until pretty late at night. Food was very functional. Not a lot of variety, but it'll keep you fueled.
Each of our accommodations had wifi sometimes, which was great for checking in with family.
Ask about how much drinking water you're allowed.
Game drives typically start very early to get the best opportunities to see what you're there to see....wildlife!
Overall, it was a very positive experience, but I wish Charles had explained a bit more what "budget" really meant.

The best safari company!
The planner Charles was a friendly, reliable, and careful person.
He was flexible in arranging the plan according to our requests.
Also the guides and the drivers were all really nice people!
When we had some problems, Charles quickly responded to our calls and helped us out, even though it was out of his charge.
It was our first trip to Africa, but we were able to enjoy our trip with no worries due to their help.
If we have an opportunity to go there again, we will ask them again!
It was unforgettable and a great experience.
Thank you very much!

Had a great experience!
This was my first trip to Africa and I had no friends around me who had traveled to Kenya before, so I was a bit worried, but they gave me a lot of advice even before I confirmed the reservation, so I was able to make a final decision.
During the trip, some unexpected accidents happened, but every time they dealt with it sincerely, and I appreciate it. I have no complaints and had one of the most memorable and wonderful trips of my life.
I would like to thank Charles from the bottom of my heart for always being quick to respond from before the trip to after the trip.
I am sure we will travel to Kenya again.
