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.

Very good safari
5/5

The safari with Tall Masai Safari was great. The communication with Benson before and during the safari was seamless, everything was as agreed. We had an excellent driver, Richie, who managed even the very difficult terrain. We got a lot of information from him about the parks and the animals living there. The accommodation was modest but perfectly adequate. I have nothing to complain about.
We had a safari for five nights.

Amazing journey we never forget❤️
5/5

Everything went perfectly from beginning. Very good communication with Benson, picking us up at JKIA airport. We were given many good and useful informations.
7-day tour itself was just amazing. Time schedules perfectly fitted and our driver/guide Martin was just great. Besides being safe and good driver, he gave us tons of informations not only about animals but about Kenyan culture too. And the best on him is his superb sense of humour. We laughed almost non stop. This trip (Masai Mara, Naivasha, Nakuru, Amboseli) I can only strongly recommend. We loved it! ❤️❤️❤️

Nice safari,beautiful landscape and truely the home of elephants
4/5

The Safari with Tall Masai Safaris was very nice. We were lucky to see lots of elephants and hippos and this trip. We also did a walking safari with a great view on the Mount Kilimanjaro. The landscape was stunning.

Our driver Clinton was experienced and we felt save even though the terrain was not the easiest due to previous rainfalls. It would have been nice if he had explained some more about the National Park and its animals. But thats just a small suggestion for improvement. All in all it was a very good experience. Thanks for that

7 days Safari
5/5

We booked 7 days safari & had some amazing time in the wilderness. The price was very reasonable for the experience we had.
The stays were very comfortable with good food.
Shout out to our driver(Richard) for being fun & professional at the same time.
Driver is the deal breaker in any wildlife safari & Richard just aced at it.
Mr. Benson(the owner) was well connected to us in the entire safari & he also made sure to keep our luggage safely while we were out in the safari.
I bugged him a lot with my questions prior to my safari & he had all the time in the world to entertain that.
Asante Sana!

Excellent Safari in Maasai Mara
5/5

We had a great experience with Tall Masai Safari. Benson helped us organise everything and was always available for questions. The game drives were excellent and we saw all the animals up close and loved every minute of it.
Be aware that some activities need to be paid for like the visit to the Masai Village which I would say is worth seeing. The boat tour on Lake Naivasha can probably be skipped. Overall I also suggest looking up the accommodation beforehand and ask if you can possibly upgrade to something better if you prefer more modern rooms and better food options. The eco camp at Masai Mara is very basic and food isn’t the best but we were able to see past that since our main concern was seeing the animals and experience the wildlife. But the company is very flexible and can provide you with different options if you ask for it. Would definitely recommend Tall Masai Safari.

Good value for price
4/5

Benson was very communicative and flexible, he tries his best to accomplish client’s requirements.
We enjoyed 3 days safari in Masai Mara and we were very lucky with Bonface (our driver), very experienced driver, supportive and very kind.
Things to improve: the budget hotel ‘Miti mingi eco camp’ could improve the food and facilities.
Last but not least, we strongly DON’T RECOMMEND the visit to the Masai Village close to the camp Miti Mingi, it’s a tourist trap, a real feak, a fraud!

Organized and communicative
5/5

Very good option for a budget safari trip. Many things to do and to see, and it's a great experience. Communication was clear and fast. Benson was responsive and very understanding, helped us solve problems when there were some. Please, note the the company is just the organizer of safari trip: during the trip itself, you are mixed with people from other agencies. Do check the accomodation and their reviews.
