Exceptional service, outstanding guides, and an experience that exceeded every expectatio
Our experience with Kentau Safaris exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we arrived, everything was exceptionally well organized, allowing us to enjoy the adventure without worrying about any logistics. Our guide was professional, knowledgeable, patient, and had an incredible ability to spot wildlife, making every game drive exciting and rewarding. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, the accommodations were comfortable, and every transfer was smooth and on time. Throughout the journey, we felt safe, well taken care of, and warmly welcomed.
Although we didn’t get the chance to see a leopard—one of Africa’s Big Five—we didn’t leave feeling disappointed. Instead, it gave us the perfect reason to come back to Kenya for another safari adventure with Kentau Safaris.
Thank you for giving us memories that will last a lifetime. I would wholeheartedly recommend Kentau Safaris to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari experience.
Competent, reliable, clear communication
The safari experience was beyond anything I could have dreamed of. Witnessing these incredible animals in their natural habitat truly broadened my understanding of the diversity of life in the wild.
Our communication with safari operator Dominic was clear and thorough. Our safari guide Mr. James is very familiar with the geography of the parks and the living habits of the animals. We are able to see the Big fives 🐘🦏🦁🐆🐃 and other rare creatures during our 7 days journey. James’s incredible driving skills and made every moment possible.
We had a really great time with Kentau Safari this time. Thank you again! Tunaipenda Kenya! Asante sana! 🩵✨🇰🇪
Great guy and responsible driver
Tour is super fun our driver and guide James did great job to ensure we have the best experiences. With James we managed to see all wild mammals we have imagined about Kenya. We call ourselves “Team James”!
Modi was extremely knowledgeable and kind making it an amazing experience!
Amazing time with Modi as our guide, extremely knowledgeable and good to spend time with. The walking and night safari give unique experiences that are completely different- highly recommend!

Extremely responsive and confidence inspiring leading to a great trip
I booked a very last minute tour (luckily it was the off season) and received very clear, responsive communication from Dominic. The trip started without an issue and went very smoothly the whole time. We were lucky to get Modi as our guide who did his best to make sure we saw the animals we were interested in and was very fun and interesting to talk with. I think for the price of the tour you are paying for an operator who is going to do his best to be prepared and ensure things go smoothly. The lodgings are nice and comfortable, but I have to say the night drive and the walking tour definitely stood out as cool unique things that I didn't see when looking at other options before booking. I think this operator does a good job trying to design tours that keep things interesting the whole time from a logistical standpoint (it is a lot of driving around after all).

Very friendly & knowledgeable!
Today’s safari was absolutely fantastic and I could not recommend Kentau Safaris highly enough! From the moment we met the driver (at the game park gates) to getting through the entrance gate and then starting the safari - we felt very well informed and safe. The driver was clearly very knowledgeable and a skilled driver and along with communications with other colleagues, we were able to see lions, rhino, hippos and so many more wild animals.
The driver then took us to the elephant orphanage and giraffe sanctuary and what a pleasure these both were!
Overall the whole safari went incredibly smoothly, the vehicle itself was spotless and well maintained and the driver himself was very professional and friendly.
Thank you Kentau Safari for giving us such a wonderful experience - today is a day I shall never forget!

From the very first contact to the very last: simply outstanding. Memories for life!
From the very first contact to the very last: simply outstanding! During the safari we saw many other tour operators at work, but based on an objective comparison, Kentau truly stands out above the rest.
They are enthusiastic, highly knowledgeable, and show genuine respect for nature and wildlife. Where others turn right, Kentau turns left and creating those unique experiences. Although a safari is always partly a matter of luck, their expertise allowed us to tick off so many special moments. Not just the lions, hippos, and elephants, but also tracking footprints, spotting birds of prey, and even noticing a dung beetle while driving. Nothing escapes the trained eyes of the Kentau team…especially Modi, our driver and guide.
Beyond the safari itself, they also show you so much along the way, as you pass through different villages. You truly get to know the beauty and character of Kenya during your journey.
Don’t hesitate and book your safari with this organization! Dominic supports you perfectly in advance via the app, and Modi takes care of the rest. A golden combination. See you soon again.
