Balu Travel is definitely the best
When I decided to finally travel to Africa and do the famous Masai Mara safari, I started looking out online for a reliable travel agent who could arrange everything for me. I came across many Tour operators and then sent messages to the 3 ones I selected. Morris was quick to revert back with an initial plan. His response was quick which gave me the confidence to move ahead with Balu Travel. I had many modifications to be done to my plans and Morris was ever so patient to attend to them and come back with exactly what I wanted. This made things so much easy for me. The payment process was ever so smooth and very safe. The confirmations were sent by Morris in a jiffy once the initial payment was done. Not only did I book the Safari with him, but the hot air Balloon and the airport transfers as well. Such was the efficiency. When we arrived, the driver was ready, all the other drivers for pick and drop were on time and Morris made sure to keep me updated via Whats App on every step of my trip.
On arrival at the Keerok Bush strip, Jeremy our guide was ready to welcome us. The next 3 days were nothing short of the best adventure. Jeremy is very well versed with the area and knows exactly where to find the animals. His knowledge of the region and the animals is paramount. Always with a smiling face and a humble attitude, we were glad Jeremy was around to show us what a real safari is.
Right from the planning to the time we went back to the airport to take our flight home, Morris made life very easy for me with the planning and Jeremy made the ground work too exciting.
If you are looking for a Safari in Kenya, Balu Travel and Morris is the go to agency. Don't look around beyond them !!

Excellent!! Highly recommend
Morris was super helpful and super responsive in helping with creating a perfect safari itinerary for the safari.
We got picked up from the hotel and we met our game driver who was absolutely a delight to work with. He made sure we had the opportunity to enjoy the full experience..
He drove to the ends to spot the animals and we ended up seeing 4/5 big five animals.
Would do this again in a heart beat! Thanks so much!

Exceptional Safari Experience - Couldn’t have asked for more
Our family of four had an unforgettable safari in Kenya this May, thanks to Balu Travel. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfectly organized and exceeded our expectations.
Derrick, our tour guide, was simply outstanding. He kept us entertained and amazed throughout the trip, sharing his deep knowledge of the wildlife and the local areas of Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. His enthusiasm and sense of humor made every moment enjoyable - we had so much fun and spent a lot of time laughing.
We stayed at Sopa Lodge in both parks, and it was wonderful. The accommodations were comfortable, the food was delicious, and the staff were attentive and friendly.
Overall, our experience with Balu Travel was incredible. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to have an exceptional safari experience in Kenya.
Thank you, Balu Travel, for a truly memorable adventure!

Excellent two nights Safari in Amboseli National Reserve
We went to Amboseli with Balu Travel to finish our time in East Africa. Communication was excellent. They were willing to pick us up at the border town of Namanga and enter Amboseli from the west side. Our driver Jeremy was good, helpful and he found all the animals and birds to photograph. He knew his way around the park. The four wheel drive vehicle was reliable and what was needed on the rough and wet tracks. He was on time meeting us initially and for each drive. The was great and a fantastic end to our holiday. I recommend you considering Balu Travel for your safari.

An excellent experience.
We had such a magical time of safari organised by Balu travel. Although our tour organiser, Morris, wasn't with us for the trip, he stay in contact with quick responses to any queries.
Our safari driver and guide, Joseph was excellent - we were the first car to spot animals over several occasions meaning we had great photos. He really made the most of our 1.5 day game drive and we were so lucky with what we saw. We weren't prepared for quite how bumpy the roads/tracks would be after the rains, but it was fun - just be prepared for a bumpy ride sometimes!
Emayian Lodge was perfect - attentative staff, delicious food, beautiful rooms and facilities. It really is luxury.
Thank you Balu Travel!

Personnal attention
I was the only person in the group. The driver -Peter was my guide and in the end of the trip he was my friend. Morris the boss of the agency controlled every step and in the end of the trip visited me to check if everything was okay.
If I ever repeat my visit to Kenya I will order the safari only through Balu travel
