Unforgettable Safari Experience – Excellent Value for Money!
5/5

We just completed a 7-day safari with Tall Masai Safari, and it was absolutely amazing! Our guide, Geoffrey Okindo, was exceptional – he genuinely cared about making sure we got the most out of our experience. Geoffrey’s knowledge and passion for the wildlife made every moment memorable, and he went above and beyond to ensure we saw a wide variety of animals.

The accommodations were basic but comfortable. For the price, we felt this safari offered excellent value for money, combining fantastic wildlife sightings with cozy stays that made us feel immersed in nature. Tall Masai Safari truly delivered an unforgettable adventure, and we can't recommend them enough!

Great safari experience for a very fair price.
5/5

We went on a 7-day safari trip covering the Masai Mara, lake Naivasha, Nakuru and Amboseli. We got a very good quote on this itinerary and the communication with Benson before the start was very good. Also during the safari he checked with us to see if everything was going well.
The safari itself was amazing. We saw so many animals and the different places we visited each had their own unique scenery.
Our guide, Geoffrey Okindo, made the experience even better. During the game drives he was in constant communication with other guides to make sure we wouldn't miss anything. He always shared interesting facts and was very funny and pleasant company. Also at other moments he made sure we were doing fine and had everything we needed.
The accomodations we went to were a bit basic but definitely good value for the money we paid.
Since this was a shared group tour we shared the van with other people but we all had plenty of space during the drives.
I would definitely recommend booking with Tall Masai safari's, they made our first safari into an experience we will never forget.

Good Budget Tour
4/5

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
3/5

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.

A GOOD BUDGET SAFARI
5/5

We did a 3 day safari. You get to see cats only if you have 1 full day of safari. We did manage to see most animals.
When we reached Nairobi we got caught to the protests and could not reach our hotel in downtown. Benson helped us to find another hotel in a safer area so we could go to the airport next day
All in all a good budget safari. Food at the camp was basic but tasty.
Good accommodation.
Sometimes lot of waiting around so others can join the group. All in all good experience. After all its Africa.

Bad Driver makes a tour disaster
2/5

we had 3 days safari for Massai Marra. Our driver was an old man that has no eager to stop for any good view, any animal or even enough explanation about any things. He just liked to drive whole day! First day and the last day will be just road driving and the fact is only the middle day is a real SAFARI. The funniest part is that at the end of the trip, he asked tip from all of us, not as a request, but as an order to pay! I dont want to say his name and better this company survey and monitor the drivers and tour guides.

Kenya is a magical land, absolutely mesmerized.
5/5

Great week long tour for the missus and I. Booked it with Benson. Good guy, had a lot of patience for my thousands of questions before actually making the booking. Tailored the itinerary to my liking, even made changes according to our travel preferences.

We booked Sopa lodges in Amboseli, Naivasha, Nakuru and Masai Mara with game drives in all of those places, in a private safari vehicle just for the two of us. The private safari was an excellent decision even though it cost a lot more, but you can't really put a price on peace of mind.

The resorts were exceptional. My wife and I travel a lot and these were some of the best we've ever experienced anywhere in the world. The heat during the afternoons was challenging, especially in mara sopa lodge who don't offer fans (horrible decision, someone should look into that asap). The safaris were wonderful, the roads leading to them not so. Naivasha is easily accessible, Nakuru a little hard to get to and Masai Mara is just so difficult to reach. Maybe flying there is a better idea. Long journeys are brutal on the back on those roads.

Got to see a lot of animals. Giraffes and zebras were my favourite since you can see them in and around your resort, no game drives needed. Among the big 5, we couldn't spot leopards, everything else was great.

Attentive, customer friendly.
4/5

Everything was as described.
Benson was very attentive and helpful.
They were flexible in coordinating clients from different offices.
Overall, I would definitely recommend Tall Masai Safari.
There was one negative however that I must mention. Almost all the members of our group had quite severe indigestion, most likely the problem was with the first accommodation (Miti Mingi eco camp). This was later confirmed by other group members.

That was a great Safari experince!
5/5

Tall Masai Safari was accidentally recommended by a friend of mine. Benson was very nice and patient in recommending routes to me, and the price was very competitive. So there was an unforgettable trip to Amboseli. We have a great driver named Patrick, who not only has professional driving skills, but also serves as a tour guide to help us find animals and patiently introduce them to them.
It was a very pleasant trip. I will take other routes next time I have the chance.
