Exceptional Safari Tour
Balu Travel offers an unforgettable safari experience, marked by professionalism and memorable moments. Our driver Jeremy stand out with his extensive knowledge and unwavering commitment to safety, ensuring that every game drive is both enlightening and secure. That's very important while we were travelling with children.
The seamless organization and personalized attention to detail by Balu Travel create a safari adventure that is not just a journey, but a treasure trove of experiences that linger long after you return home. Their dedication to conservation and the local communities adds a layer of meaningfulness to an already spectacular adventure. Good job guys. 👍

Amazing
It was a fantastic trip and the experience of a lifetime. Safari is something everyone should experience at least once in their life. BALU travel was professional. Morris was easy to reach. He always responded to messages and emails very quickly. We had Isak as our driver for 4 days. He was very pleasant and friendly. He told us about the animals and provided an authentic experience. Isak is also very sociable and makes things comfortable for everyone. I would 100% recommend Isak as a driver as well as BALU.

Perfect experience
The safari through Balu was great. Morris was incredibly easy to communicate with. And Solomon was such a great guide with so much knowledge about the area.
I did the budget option and the camp had everything you need for a budget safari lodge!

Responsible, frindle, always on contact, do everything u will be comfortable
The safari was great! I found Balu on TripAdvisor and contact by mail. The manager was very friendly and patient with us, our tour to Kenia was canceled 3 times and Balu moved our safari 3 times forward and was waiting for us. always answered all the questions and made contact. When we finally got to Nairobi, at the 1st day of Safari manager suggest us more convenient place to pick up, it was great! On the way back drive also brought us the same place, it was near the app we leave. Drive was very good, we got to Masai Mara for 4,5 hours with 2 stops, it was very fast and safety. And at the same day we had a drive to Masai Mara, the driver made stops at every single animal we saw, do his maximum to find lions, answered all the questions about Masai living and wild life, it was great experience, on next day we had a full drive to Masai Mara with lunch under the tree in Savana, it was so lovely near u could see animals seat on the ground and eat and at the evening trip to Masai Mara village, it was kind of interesting, but it seems comrecial

The Agent crafts immersive trips that link travelers to local cultures with smooth logistics.
I highly recommend Balu Travel for anyone considering a trip to Kenya. After carefully researching various tour operators for my birthday safari, I can confidently say that choosing them was the best decision I could have made.
Morris was incredibly responsive to all our inquiries and presented us with a fantastic deal that included a private tour along with detailed accommodation options, complete with pictures. He broke down the meal inclusions, drinks, and planned activities for our 05 day tour, which gave us clear expectations. It was a lovely touch that he even came to meet us the day our adventure began! He also coordinated with my partner for a surprise birthday celebration at our base camp and made the arrangement for a hot air balloon ride. <3
The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly our guide, Steve. He was fantastic, ensuring that we experienced everything the safari had to offer. We were fortunate enough to see all of the Big Five and even enjoyed a traditional Nairobi lunch with Steve’s family, which was a truly authentic experience.
If you're considering a private or shared group tour, look no further than Balu Travel. Morris and Steve are the most reliable people you could work with!

Best Safari ever and resort at the beach
After a deep research regarding where to begin with the world of Safaris, we decided that Kenya was the perfect choice, so we contacted more than ten tour operators and local agencies.
The majority of them were not flexible and did not adapt to our requirements, however Balu made everything easy, cost affordable and personalized until the smallest detail. Everything was ready before our arrival and between Morris (POC of Balu) and Denis (driver and guide) we had a great welcome at the airport and felt ourselves as locals after 3 days of private Safari. In addition to this, we decided to finish our trip in Diani Beach to relax, sunbathing and scuba diving and the recommendation of hotels made by Balu could not be better. We had Peter waiting to pick us up at the airport and the return.
As a summary, we have already recommended Balu to several friends and we hope to reach to them soon for another trip.

Amazing! Words fail me
I had booked a Safari with another operator back in June who a week before let me down. I was incredibly panicked because my whole holiday was planned around Safari. I made an initial enquiry on a Sunday and Morris was ultra helpful and reassuring. He offered me a range of options to suit my budget and really put my mind at ease. My initial feeling was panic but Morris really eased that and I was incredibly thankful he helped me on a weekend because this should be a day to chill.
Safari in Amboseli was amazing! Myself and my partner spent 3 days with Francis. It really felt like hanging out with a friend and that for us felt really special.
I would without hesitation recommend and book my adventures with Balu Travel. Their adventures suit every budget, their customer service is without fault and their range of places to visit means so much choice.
So grateful for finding this company!
