Great experience
We did an 8 day safari in Kenya with Tall Masai Safaris, Benson helped us plan our stay there, and Antony our guide did a great job, highly recommended.

Amazing safari in Amboseli, loved every minute!
I went on a 2-night safari to Amboseli, organised through Tall Masai Safari. We were a group of 6 in total. The driver, Geoffrey, was amazing. The drive from Nairobi was comfortable and the game drives in Amboseli national park were fantastic. He showed us all the animals we wanted to see (lions, cheetah, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, gazelles, antelopes,hippos in the lake and so many elephants!) and was always communicating with other drivers to find out about the best spots. He drove us around different habitats so we could see different landscapes. We really enjoyed his explanation and his expertise. We stayed at Nyati Safari Camp and had a very good experience: food was good, accommodation was nice (with ensuite bathroom and shower) and the camp in general was a lovely and peaceful place. The staff were very nice and friendly. The contact person from Tall Masai Safari was easy to contact at any moment and delivered a good service, everything was as agreed. I am very satisfied with the experience and have beautiful memories of a wonderful trip to Amboseli.

Great. Trustable and professional
It was my first experience in Africa. Benson (the manager )was so helpful and answered to all of my questions patiently. He tried to provide a package according to my time and budget. Accommodations were comfortable and clean with tasty food. Our guide(felix) was a trustable man and he explained about each animal and parks. Be sure and trust this company.

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.

Good organisation and communication
The safari was very nice, we got to see many animals. While you wait for some pick ups and so, they always arrive and come up with a plan. The driver was very nice, Benson was very responsive and helped me with all the details. Definitely recommended.

The driver was very nice and answered all questions
The experience with Tall Masai Safari was great I would recommend someone else.
4 days MM and Nakuru with Navasha
Safari was good itself, not the organisation. Mr. Benson didn't keep promise to side boat tour in Naivasha, even after I notified few times in advance, and only offered to pay taxi for myself back to Nairobi if to go so I had to resign. At the arrival he let me wait over an hour abandoned in a car park in Nairobi without transport until I got my own.
The driver failed in critical interaction with local authorities and after bribing them he demanded money from me to pay all to him. Very disappointing customer care

Disorganized
Ok I’m going to be completely honest and be the review that I wish I would’ve seen, because this would’ve led me to book differently. Let me start by saying KENYA IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! There were moments where I wanted to cry tears of joy from what I was experiencing and pinch myself because the beauty there is unmatched. Now for Tall Masai as a company, they were completely disorganized. To begin my pickup time was severely miscommunicated by Benson. He messaged me saying my pickup time was 6pm and actually ended up being 6am! MAJORRR difference as I almost booked an extra hotel night to accommodate for the late pick up. So I had to rush and pack all my items last min due to this major error. Then I get in the van and I’m requested to pay the remainder (being that you only pay half prior to booking) in USD. I travel with the country’s currency (Kenyan Shilling) never with usd because it’s not smart. My driver tells me Ben should’ve told you to have usd but he didn’t! So we call and I ended up going back and forth until I was allowed to pay online in which Ben asked me to pay MORE to accommodate for the exchange rate. That was completely unfair and disrespectful. These two errors happened within 40mins of being picked up so I was already super annoyed. All I received was a weak apology from Ben and nothing else. Once the safaris started because we were super delayed things got a little better.. until it was lunch time. The lunch was absolutely horrible and not safe. The meat was not properly refrigerated and the fruit was not fresh. Honestly the food at all the accommodations was pretty bad except Nyati, which was decent. Citymax hotel was disgusting and I would’ve rather slept outside. Please bring a bunch of snacks because the food offered is the worse I’ve experienced in my life. The game drivers were shady and didn’t speak much which was weird. For some of us this is a once in a lifetime experience so engage and explain to us what we’re seeing…. Some did but a lot didn’t and drove with no purpose. However the people I’ve met and the locals, Masai tribe, the wild life was absolutely perfect. If it wasn’t for me making the best out of it and being in nature I would’ve easily gave this company a 1 or 2 star. Yes I understand this is marketed as a budget tour,however no one should be fed old bread and cucumber and sleep in vermin infested hotels for $600 + dollars. NO ONE! this is greedy and not humane. To wrap this up look into higher priced options with a different company if you want to have a full great experience. I would not recommend Tall Masai at all sadly. Hopefully they can take this review as constructive criticism as this was my true raw experience.

Great professionals
I just returned from Kenya and I only have good things to say about Tall Masai Safari and all its staff. My suitcase did not arrive on time and Benson did all the paperwork to get it back. Fantastic guides, Joseph is a super professional. If you want to live an authentic adventure African at an incredible price, don't hesitate to do it with them.
