Dedication, dedication and more dedication
The tour itself went above and beyond anything we could have ever imagined.
Even before we had made our booking Fiona went above and beyond what could be expected from her. She was very communicative and really eager to help us with bookings and tickets for our transport. They have organised a truly special tour.
Special mentions should be given to our guide, John. Not only did he know the layout of the parks like the back of his hand he also was really knowledgeable about the wildlife and extremely dedicated to finding us the animals we were looking for. He truly deserves a special mention for all the times he went out of his way to helps.

Unequivocally the best operator we found.
We were planning a special trip to celebrate my daughter’s 21st birthday in September and my 60th in August. With so many companies to choose from, we needed to find one that fit our budget. After reaching out to several, we ultimately decided on Inspired Feet Safaris. They stood out for their prompt communication and positive reviews, particularly for budget safaris.
We initially booked our trip for June, but due to an injury, we had to cancel. Fiona, the manager, immediately offered a full refund without any hesitation. Once I partially recovered, we were still eager to go on our safari, so we rebooked for August. Once again, Fiona’s responses were quick and helpful.
Our experience with Inspired Feet Safaris was exceptional. Our accommodations for the eight days were perfect. While food choices were sometimes limited at the camps or hotels, they were still very good—just remember, you're in Africa, not your home country.
Throughout our trip, Fiona's communication was top-notch. She was always available to address any concerns, and she regularly checked in to ensure everything was going smoothly. For a budget safari, this experience far exceeded our expectations.
The wildlife we encountered was incredible. We saw all of the Big Five, witnessed the great wildebeest migration, and even experienced the dramatic moment of a cheetah stalking and making a kill—an emotional but awe-inspiring sight of nature in action.
In conclusion, if you're considering a budget safari or have a specific itinerary in mind, I highly recommend contacting Fiona at Inspired Feet Safaris. She will take care of all your needs and won’t disappoint. Finally, our driver and guide, Abdi, was outstanding. If you have the chance, request him as your guide—his ability to find wildlife and position us for great photos was remarkable. You won’t be disappointed.

Amazing budget safari experience
If you're looking to save some money on an safari adventure then Inspired Feet are a great option! We took the 11 day experience with them crossing from Tanzania into Kenya. We saw an amazing array of animals and explored several national parks.

Colin and I went for 3 day kenia Masai Mara safari. I love nature and Fiona and David took really good care of me and my friends. It was very cold but Fiona advices to take lodges for extra comfort but not luxury. She is dedicated in her work and I recommend their services 100%
They are very honest and I like that they understand what a client needs. Thank you Inspired team xx

Kenia budget Safari
My family and I were looking for a reputable safari company in Kenya. We stumbled across Inspired Feet Safaris and our migration journey was set to start in July. Their itineraries are very detailed and we like that Fiona is extremely honest. We love our journey with them and we would highly recommend them. The fact that we didn’t expect perfection , Fiona always made sure we were comfortable. The mere challenges we had she solved and we were satisfied.

Pure Luck or chaotic safari?
I don't know where to start to be honest.. this will be long. I spoke to the tour organizer fiona through WhatsApp she sounded lovely and I felt very comfortable and that I can trust her since it was my first safari and my birthday celebration. We decided to pay extra to be with her even though we had different companies.
To start off, the person that had to pick us up was 4 hours late . So we had to go to lunch and immediately rushing to masai mara. The driver was driving very fast With good intentions that he wanted us to be able to see the park. Which resulted in a bad accident on day 1. My head banged against the windows of the van and the rocks on the floor. Van flipped completely on the floor due to the driver rushing [ not a great start for a first day]. I did speak to fiona and she offered to refund us the money and take me to the hospital. At this point I didn't have much of a choice because we were in the middle of a camp and I'd loose all the time that I planned for. so truly my only choice was to keep going unfortunately...As it was near impossible to find another safari on the spot. I was thankfully okay after a few days. I did ask for change of car and driver and that was granted. Besides that it was very Unorganized, moved randomly,rushed, incorrect information given. PDF given as decoration nothing is followed on that PDF she gives you. No proper communication. [ ] Where it says optional- not really optional someone changed their mind and they had nowhere to go so they were forced to pay.Different companies compiled in one car which caused plans to change and lost time = frustration
[ ] On day 3 said we would relax at hotel did it happen? No as I said random and disorganized. We lost time and I felt like i was constantly rushed which also caused the second driver to loose his excitement as it was frustration constantly instead of joy... you get what you pay for... did I see the big five? Yes thank God I didn't expect that at all. Am I disappointed absolutely. The tour coordinator didnt not want to take accountability for accident but later apologized for all the wrong things thay kept happening every single day. which I appreciated some things were not in her hands but there is definitely room for improving or maybe it's just pure bad luck for us? Side note; I did speak with someone else that we met and was dealing with inspired feet and they also complained of disorganized and communication issues.

Posted on Aug 14, 2024Dear Martine,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I am genuinely sorry to hear that your experience with us did not meet your expectations, and I deeply regret any disappointment you felt. Your concerns are important to us, and I would like to address them directly.
First and foremost, I want to express my sincere apologies for the unfortunate accident during your safari. I am relieved to hear that you are well. At the time of the incident, our primary concern was your health and safety, which is why we advised you to seek medical assistance immediately. I took it upon myself to meet you halfway through the safari and check on your well being. When I came, we had a sit-down. I offered a refund to ensure you were not financially inconvenienced & also paid for you an extra game drive at Hell's Gate National Park even though it wasn't included in your itinerary. At this particular point I tried to make it up to you in whichever way I could so that we could be on the same page.
You also requested to have a different driver and car- it was the least we could do; so we did.
There are indeed occasions where unforeseen circumstances, such as distance, weather, transport or accommodation issues - which can alter our planned itineraries. In such cases, our guides and drivers are instructed to communicate with us promptly so that we can make adjustments to the itinerary and still meet our clients’ needs as best as possible.
Regarding your comments about the driver’s speed, we take such concerns very seriously. We conducted a thorough internal investigation with the driver involved to understand the circumstances of the accident and we took the action of letting go of the said guide. It was unfortunate.
While we strive to provide exceptional experiences, I regret that we fell short during your trip. Most of our clients have had wonderful experiences with our safaris, and it is disappointing to hear that this was not the case for you.
Once again, I sincerely apologize for the circumstances that affected your experience. I would be more than happy to discuss further what we can do to make things right, including offering you a special arrangement for a future booking, should you choose to travel with us again.
Thank you for your understanding, and I hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future.
Best regards,
Fiona Grace

They are professional and will always care about your safety.
Inspiredfeet Safaris is a very professional tour operator. Fiona is a brilliant woman who handles all her business in tourism. She is always out there for the clients, and she thinks in my way and gives me a lot of advice to either protect myself well or have as much fun as I can. David is also a kind person in this company, he ensures my safety all the time. All the accommodations are actually out of my expectations at such a price. They gave me unforgettable memory watching wildlife and to see this beautiful African land, especially the experience in Amboseli. I would recommend everybody to go to Amboseli once in life. Thank you a lot.

Unforgettable memories and experiences with Inspired Feet Safaris!
First of all, I really appreciate Fiona providing excellent safari tours for 7 days with awesome the guide, Bony.
Fortunately, unlike other groups, I and my uncle had 7 days tour with Bony who had amazing ability to capture the spots in Maasai Mara and Amboseli.
Even though on the first day there was a heavy rain, we had no doubt!
Many thanks to Fiona from Inspired Feet Safaris and Bony the guide!
