A great safari
Jambo! We loved the safari! We saw the Big 5 and Frank is a great driver.
Very punctual and respecting the time to observe our favorite animals: lions, cheetahs and elephants.
We were very lucky to see the black and white rhino.
We will repeat in a few years with the kids.
Thanks.

Great experience, knowledgeable and friendly guide and great communication
We first booked a 2-day tour to Amboseli with Balu. Morris was very responsive to questions, and also very flexible when there was uncertainty whether we would be able to make the prearranged date.
Ephantus was our driver and guide. A very kind and knowledgeable man. He drove us from our hotel in Nairobi to the Amboseli Sopa Lodge and from there we had our first afternoon safari. Ephantus knew exactly where to go for good viewings, had razor sharp vision to spot animals still far in the distance and had a lot of fun facts to share.
The Amboseli Sopa Lodge was also a perfect place to stay, and the game drive early morning next day was even better than the day before. We ended up seeing a lot of elephants very close, zebras, lions, giraffes, hyenas, ostriches, buffaloes, wildebeests, and much more. It exceeded all our expectations.
We were so happy with Balu Travel (and specifically Ephantus and Morris) that we booked a half day tour to Nairobi National Park two days later with them. Which again was an amazing experience.
Would definitely recommend them!
