" 3 incredible days of Safari in Masai mara Game reserve , highly recomendend!"
5/5

It was an unforgettable experience!
Each day had its own beauty and always brought a surprise, mouth-opening moments of admiration. The variety of ecosystems and observing animals in harmony, it's as if you were the "Lion King in HD"!

The 3 days were perfect and enough! We managed to see the famous big 5, we really weren't expecting it!
On the second day we managed to cross off the rhinoceros from the list, although further away.
We saw so many lions, it was not my expectation at all, I thought it would be difficult to see them and that at most it would be from very far away, but the truth is that we saw groups of 7 lions, a lioness with her litter in the shade, a pair of juvenile lionesses resting in the grass in camouflage, and so many others. And those weren't the only cats, a leopard resting in the tree, a camouflaged cheetah and two Serval cats.

We saw many elephants, in groups, others alone in incredible landscapes, in Masai Mara Game resereve!
The animal that stuck in our minds the most was the hyena, with its majestic gait.
And a mental photograph was clearly the giraffes against the light on the road that connects Masai mara and Serengeti! A trip full of dust and full of adventure.

Our guide was an incredible driver, we highly recommend any safari to be done with him, he had a GPS in his head and knew the tricks of the roads. We saw some cars stuck on the side of the road, sometimes with a flat tire, sometimes with a broken steering wheel. I was just wondering when will it be our turn? The roads are not at all friendly for cars, it takes a lot of esteem in the jeep and driving. It was interesting to realize that I had been going on safaris for over 2 years!
We really liked our guide!

The lunches always tasted good, and the camp experience was authentic!
I didn't expect so much quality and service in the middle of nowhere, it's impressive.
Sleeping with the sound of animals was very beautiful!
In short, a dream trip!
Finally, Fredrick Director was very friendly and helpful, guiding our questions before booking the experience, which was a crucial point in giving us the trust and credibility of the company, as it is necessary to deposit the money before the trip,which we did to the bank before safari!

I can highly recommend Fantastic Adventure safari for future travellers!!

"This is an unforgettable,awe-inspiring, and highly cost-effective trip, Kasaine Senei is the guid!"
5/5

February is the off-peak season in Kenya, and we, six adults from USA with one ADULT from Kenya, embarked on this journey. Although we opted for a shared itinerary, there were no other guests, so the seven of us had a vehicle all to ourselves, making the trip exceptionally comfortable. Prior to the trip, Fredrick Director,from the travel agency was extremely patient in answering all my questions via email. The camp accommodations throughout the journey were just as promised at the time of booking, truly excellent. After a long day of Safari, we were all well taken care of with great service. I would especially recommend our guide, His driving skills are top-notch, and he is incredibly adept at spotting animals, ensuring we saw all the wildlife we wished to see. He also sought out the best spots for photography, catering to our photographic needs. Moreover, He was warm-hearted and cheerful, always ready to assist other drivers during the trip, gathering more animal intelligence, and sharing his knowledge with us in a very professional manner. I have already recommended Him to my friends, and we are likely to visit again! It was truly an exceptional trip!

"Delivered a well -planned itinerary but should come out clear on resident park fee"
4/5

I joined group of six people from Homa bay to Masai Mara, for 3 days 2 nights,so we were 7 people in total, 6 of us were foreigner from USA, and I was the only Kenya citizen, I was charged non resident rate for the first time,then later on when I complained and call Frederick from Nairobi office,I he called our guide and told him to refund me some money back,I think they should have given me resident rate from the begining.

Our guide for the tour,Kasain sensei, was absolutely perfect.
Through out the trip,he was punctual, showed dedication,and adjusted the itinerary flexible to ensure it wasn't too tiring for us.His driving was both quick and reliable, marking us feel safe the entire time.
During the game drives,he got us as close as possible to the animals and plants,allowing us to capture amazing photos. Ours Land cruiser was among the first to enter and last to leave Masai Mara National Reserve.
Despite it's not being peak season,he went above and beyond to help us see as many animals as possible.Notably, our Vehicles was the first to spot a leopard, one of rarest of the Big 5.Kasaine also has a keen photography.If you're lucky enough to have him as your guide you're sure to get some incredible shots! Being a Maasai himself, he has extensive knowledge of the region and wildlife.At each location,he seemed well connected and we had the unique experience of being guided by the chief's son in Maasai village.

Fredrick,who coordinate our booking,was prompt and friendly, ensuring that everything we requested and promised was delivered smoothly, from the initial arrangements through to the end of the tour.

I was initially nervous, especially since this trip was with my friends but Kasaine and Frederick made our time truly unforgeable.
My friends expressed their gratitude, saying they hadn't expected such an incredible experience.If you're looking for quality safari at a reasonable price,I highly recommend Fantastic Adventure Safaris.

5/5

I traveled with my Brother Frank for the first time with Fantastic Adventure safaris. We felt safe and taken care of throughout our 3 days group joining safari . The owner of the company, Fredrick, ensured that all of our needs were met and we felt happy and safe.
We stayed for 2 nights in Masai Mara. Our tour guide was John. He was professional and knowledgeable about wildlife and locations. John was very perceptive and knowledgeable about Animals. He did his best to ensure that we are happy.
The the camp we stayed at were great: friendly staff, delicious food and comfortable accommodation.
I highly recommend Fantastic Adventure Safaris. This company provides high-quality service !

3 : DAYS MASIA MARA GROUP JOINING SAFARI

Jambo Charles,

Greetings from everyone at Fantastic Adventure Safaris trusting that you are well.

Fantastic Adventure Safaris appreciates you for giving us the opportunity to book your memorable safari. Thank you for commending on and above all for your 5-star review on our services and safari experience, which as you say were excellent!

Maasai mara miti mingi Eco camp is definitely a great choice of comfort-level accommodation. It is located high on the slopes of the Oloolaimutia Hills. It was one of the first safari tented budget camp to be built in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, a reason why its gardens and trees are so lush and mature. All the tents follow the design of traditional African round houses with conical roofs, and these stretch along the line of the hills with the impressively large public area.
Once again many thanks as we look forward to your next safari with us!


Karibu Sana Mr Charles!

We had a wonderful experience with Fantastic Adventure safaris. John, our tour guide was an amazing person, who knows his way around the reserve and strived to show us the big 5. The Mitimingi camp was also a truly out of the world experience. We really enjoyed the trip and would definitely recommend Fantastic Adventure safari to our friends!

Pushy, not keeping the itenary, not keeping agreements
4/5

The safari experience was perfect. We saw all the big 5’s and lot of animals. However Frederic the tour operator was very annoying with his pushy style, and also he changed the itinerary but he forgot to say it. Our price was $650*2, we paid the deposit which was $200, and when we paid the rest in Euro they overcharged us with $25. And when we realized he put us in a cheaper group and ask for refund he started to negotiate and when we agreed after 3 times he started again, he forced us if we don’t give 5* for him we don’t get back the difference, and we got the refund almost a day after, when I told him he will get one star if he won’t pay it back. Hopefully the operator will learn from his faults and mistakes.

Jambo Naorbert,

Thank you very much for sharing your wonderful experience with us during your 4 days Mara Nakuru ,to start with, its good you have admit that your experience was fantastic even though there was loopholes which is needed to work on, honestly the exchange rate $ $ to Euros due vary with market rate, if may be on your traveling date the exchange rate was lower or higher which made you to loose $25 , I want to politely advice you that it was not our fault, we don't have control over market rate, besides that, when comes to your refund ,we finalized everything with you around 9pm and the following day which was your last day, I talk with your guide and you were having your money after game drive in Nakuru before lunch time.
Once again thank you for choosing Fantastic Adventure Africa safaris, I hope to serve you again.

Bye,
