100% of plan came through
Our 2 was a part of share 6-d. Safari ( Masai Mara Lake Nakuru, Naivasha and Amboseli) + 1d. Private safari, (Tsavo East) . We had an excellent driver on Safari. We were in 6-8 persons group.

Safari in Kenya NP
We, a group of 8 family member went for 12 days (8 nights at National parks, 3 nights at Nairobi) with Tall Masai safari. Benson, the director of Tall Masai safari was with us most of the time including airport transfers upon arrival to Nairobi and return. It was little longer safari than average (Tsavo east and west, Amboseli, lake Naivasha, lake Nakuru, and Masai mara national parks), Benson was very helpful to customize our trip and booking hotels of our choice. The trip was went very well as planned—— during middle of our safari, Benson realized that the Land Cruiser we are riding last 4 days might not in good shape—— he immediately decided to replace the Jeep and brought a another car from Nairobi overnight without disrupting out safari. Benson, Erick, and Martin —-all are very sincere, respectful and put their best effort to provide us with great, once in a life time Kenya Jungle Safari expriences.

Great value 3 day safari
Had a great experience with Tall Masai. Very good communication with Benson throughout and helped me tailor the tour to my budget.
The accommodation at AA Lodge was great, staff were fantastic, very friendly and helpful, and the food selection was good.
The safari experience itself was amazing, the Masai Mara is beautiful and my guide Derrick and his colleague Dan were brilliant, very happy and knowledgeable and made the experience even better.

Great Safari experience without breaking the bank!
Benson communicated with us from the very beginning and accompanied us during most of the trip. He picked us and dropped us off to and from the airport. We had good driver but the jeep had issues. Benson realized this problem and arranged for new driver and jeep. We went on game drives, twice a day. At Masai Mara we spent two whole days at the Mara with a picnic lunch. It was definitely worth it since we were able to see the amazing migration of the wild beasts. We also saw leopards, lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, hyenas, and even ostriches. He made arrangements for the hot air balloon ride which was simply an awesome experience! . Other than a small miscommunication, the trip was well organized and worth every penny! I recommend Tall Masai Safari for your trip and suggest to openly communicate with Benson your concerns and he’ll make every effort to meet your expectations. Great value for your money!

Value for your money
We are right now on safari with Tall Masai. It’s an amazing company. We travelled a lot in Africa. This company is perfect. Very good value for your money. You can choose budget or a bit more expensive tours. We booked a budget group tour with our family.
Perfect! In the park you stay just outside in a tented camp. It’s basic but yeah, you want to feel how Africa is.
Everything is well organized. And if things are not perfectly working according plan the driver will arrange it.
The safari’s are very good. We saw a lot and it works perfectly in the van with the open roof.
So don’t worry you will have a fantastic trip.
We did the extra options: the boot tour in Naivasha and the Masai village in Miti Mingi in Masai Mara. It’s worthwhile.
Finally we did decide to do the balloon safari. That was really an amazing experience. If you want to do a balloon ride once in live,….. this is a fantastic place to do it.
Hakuna Matata.

Very stressful safari experience; we felt scammed!
We booked a 5-day midrange safari tour. We had a horrible experience with Benson. The night before the start of the tour we received a message of Benson if we could pay 55 dollars extra for the hotel because it had become more expensive. Of course, we would not pay extra as this was not stated in the quote, but Benson was persistent and kept messaging us for an hour straight. Then the next thing came up; the visit to the Masai village. The quote stated that this was included, but Benson called our driver that this was not the case. We sent a screenshot of the quote to Benson, but he did not agree with this. Benson kept calling us and the driver and even screamed a couple of times. This is insane! He told us that he already fixed the problem with the extra charge of the hotel, so now we had to fix this. This was very unreasonable because he caused these problems, not us! Of course, we did not pay for this as it was included. Now the third problem occurred. Before the safari, we agreed to pay extra to get another hotel; instead of the Citymax hotel we wanted to stay at the Waterbuck hotel. This was confirmed multiple times by e-mail and WhatsApp. The extra charge was paid on the first day of the safari. Our driver told us he would take us to the Citymax hotel, but we explained and showed him we paid extra to go to the Waterbuck hotel. The driver understood it, and called Benson. Benson said it was not true; we did not pay extra and we did not agree to go to the Waterbuck hotel. We discussed it for 3 hours!! We showed him multiple times the emails and WhatsApp, but he did not want to help. Finally, he wanted to pay back the dollars we paid extra, but he wanted to reimburse us in shillings which which didn't equal the amount we paid. Another hour of discussing went by and he finally paid us back. It was a very stressful experience for us. Something you do not want during your holiday. Benson did everything he could to screw us over. Fortunately, we had proof of everything, but this was the worst experience ever. I would not recommend booking with this agency!!

Good Budget Tour
This was my first time in Kenya, hence didn't knowvwhat to expect. But I
nenjoyed this tour. The accommodation and food were basic but I enjoyed it. Loved the Glamp Tents and the food was tasty.
The safari driver cum guide did hos best to show us as many animals as possible and I was glad to see the lions.
His radio had a technical issue towards the end and that was a downer although he tried his best to compensate for this.
We also did the Nasai village tour which we thought was very strange and didn't feel real but it was ok.
Special thank you to Benson for assisting me and my friend when we came back to Nairobi and riots had broken out. We couldn't go to the hotel we had booked previously and Benson very kindly helped us book another hotel in a safe area and transported us there safely.
Thank you Benson really appreciate you going out of your way to ensure we were safe.
Overall a good tour and I recommend this budget tour.

All good
He has complied with everything contracted. We would have liked the guide to explain information to us during the safari. The meals are repeated every day, but the accommodations were great. To repeat.
