Brilliant safari! Reasonably priced and great communication.
5/5

My family enjoyed a great few days in Lake Naivasha and the Masai Mara. David, our guide was very knowledgeable and we saw loads of animals. Communication with Bob beforehand was great - eye responsive and polite. Good value too. Highly recommended!

Responsive, accommodating, transparent smaller tour company with big heart
5/5

We are a group of 3 people. We reached out to Kevic Tours and Travel because we read all positive review about this company, which might be small but that means we got a full attention. Bob, the tour consultant was responsive and accommodating to our (many) requests as we had some plans changed last minute. The proposals were transparent and included the price breakdown of everything. So this makes me feel like the team is very trustworthy. The team went above and beyond my expectation to help sort out my emergency issue with travel document prior to departing for Kenya. I was able to make this trip happen thanks to Kevic team.
In terms of designing our Safari package, we had very short time in Kenya (4 days) but we would like to visit Masai Mara and Amboseli, so we opted for a mid range safari package. Lake Naivasha was recommended and included as a stopover by Kevic, and it was truly fantastic, and probably underrated. We visited cresent island and stayed at the Lake Naivasha Sopa Lodge which was absolutely remarkable and memorable. Make sure you have this in your itinerary, totally worth a visit. We were able to see 4 out of Big Five in Masai Mara even we only had one game drive in the afternoon. In Amboseli, we had 2 game drives both with a spectacular view of Kilimanjaro in the background.
As a suggestion, if you book a hotel in Nairobi through Kevic Tour and travel, they offer a free pick up from airport a day before. We found this out later after we booked the hotel by ourselves. So you may consider booking through them if you need a free airport pickup and drop off at hotel ;)
Our guide/ driver David is great. He is patient, accommodating and knowledgable. His driving was safe too. We were in good care.
Overall, we highly recommend Kevic Tour and Travel. We were treated well both prior to, during, and after the trip. They might not be a big your company but they surely are attentive. Everything went beyond our expectation. I in fact, reached out to a couple of tour operators to compare the communication, flexibility and pricing, Kevic tour and travel was an easy choice for me to pick as my top option. Very fair business. We highly recommend!

Kenya Safari with 'Kevic Tours and Travel': A tailor-made adventure for explorers!
5/5

I had the pleasure of experiencing an unforgettable 4-day safari in Kenya with 'Kevic Tours an Travel'. During this exciting trip I explored the stunning Masai Mara and Amboseli National Parks as well as the impressive Lake Naivasha. It was an extraordinary experience because I was the only guest on this safari. Both the driver and the organizer worked with great dedication to introduce me to the beauty of Kenya's wildlife and nature. Their warm hospitality created an atmosphere in which I felt welcome from the start.

Professional
5/5

Amazing service and experience. Very professional and punctual. How our safari was described to us 3 months before we went is exactly what we experienced. Safari vehicle was clean, comfortable, and relatively new. Highly recommend booking with Kevic!

Amazing tour that exceeded our expectations
5/5

We had a 12 hour layover in Nairobi and decided to make the most of it. Initially, we had “just” planned to go to bomas of Kenya, the giraffe center and Karen Blixen museum, but when we landed we found out that the national park next to the airport had Rhinos, which we had yet to see. So, with a very tight schedule, Alex got us through our initial tours in time to have a couple of hours in the national park, and it was magical.

Organised, informative, and extremely helpful in delivering a memorable Kenyan experience
5/5

Robert was firstly extremely helpful in arranging our trip at the last minute, after our other operators let us down. He provided a tailor made tour, to our specific requirements and budget, and was vert accommodating. The tour itself went off without a glitch, and we cannot praise our guide Adamba enough, he was simply incredible. He was informative and punctual, accommodating and a true gentleman. He spoke proudly of the Kenyan culture and taught us all a lot about the country and it’s amazing people. Throughout the four day trip we had, we were so well looked after, and even when it ended, Robert checked in to ensure we were happy, had made our onward flight and were satisfied with his services. Five Star service all day long!

5/5

This is an amazing journey. We followed the guide Dida in Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli for safari. We saw lions eating breakfast, elephants wandering under Mount Kilimanjaro, and saw leopard, cheetahs, giraffes, ostriches, we sitting in a hot air balloon to watch the sunrise, almost saw zebras crossing the river. Everything in Africa is so beautiful, beautiful sunset, beautiful nature, kind and lovely children. Our guide Dida, is very professional, he knows everything, took us to find many animals, he is our good friend. The hotel we stayed at inLake Naivasha was great, the others weren't 5 star but they weren't bad either. Great trip I will always remember

Just book with Kevic!
5/5

My experience with Kevic Tours & Travel has left me and my travel buddies beyond satisfied and reassured in a landscape where there was a lot of uncertainty. Having dealt with several tour operators prior to booking with Bob from Kevic, we found many hiccups, dishonesty and a lack of transparency. Kevic was a breathe of fresh air. Being our first safari, we were lost and didn't know what to book or how to do so.

Navigating through the tourism industry in a foreign country was daunting, especially since many operators with who had a many reviews didn't make us feel comfortable while booking and seemed like they were just pushing for a deposit without anything set in stone which worried us.

Disappointments with larger tour operators were all too frequent, marked by unexpected costs, hidden clauses, and a distressing lack of transparency. This was until I came across Kevic Tours & Travel. The exceptional responsiveness and clear communication from Bob, the manager, were like a breath of fresh air. He responded to every. single. email. (All of 45 emails) To update us, provide clarification, let us know of changes proactively so that we weren't faced with doubt or upset during our time in the Mara.

Bob’s genuine commitment to honesty was evident throughout our interaction. He was straightforward with all details, including cost and itinerary changes, offering much-needed transparency and eliminating all potential surprises. He managed to demystify the confusing terrain of safari planning and make it a truly enjoyable experience. Not once was I left wondering about hidden costs or ambiguous tour details. Every interaction was marked by the level of transparency that others in the industry could certainly learn from. He provided breakdowns with itnereraries whenever it was even the slightest change. This really set us at ease and show us how completely honest and hard-working Bob and his team were. their price was the most competitive of any tour operator on safari bookings.com beating out larger tour companies, and providing more bang for our buck.

We booked a four day fly an Safari, with airport, transfers, and had a driver and guide for all for days. Bob himself met us at the airport, traveled with us to Wilson airport, check to send himself, and ensure that we were ready to fly before parting ways. We arrived late the first day, but we immediately went on our first game drive, and also went on our last game drive prior to our leaving to the airstrip. Bob and his team maximized our time in Mara and checked on us every single day to ensure that our trip was going smoothly.

To conclude, my safari with Kevic Tours & Travel was extraordinary, greatly enriched by the dedication of Bob and his team to honesty, responsiveness, and clarity. I wholeheartedly recommend Kevic to anyone who is apprehensive in navigating this confusing atmosphere, looking to dive into a safari adventure without the typical anxieties that accompany dealing with most tour operators. We were 5 NYC guys who didn't even know where to begin and we just trusted in Bob, and he took care of the rest. If you're still unsure, give Kevic and they're team a try, you'll thank yourself later.

Absolutely amazing service!
5/5

We travelled with Kevic Tours with Alex as our driver-guide. We did three days in Masai Mara and one day in Navaisha. Masai Mara was even better that expedted. So many animals. We did a balloon tour as well. Do that and take three days. In Navaisha we did cycle in Hells Gate and boatride on the lake (lots of hippos). Also very nice.

Everything was absolutely amazing. Communication beforehand very smooth. Same when we arrived. Hotels as we wanted them. Alex was the best. He clearly loves animals and went out of the way to make sure we had a great experience.

Can recommend to everyone!
