Excellent and memorable private safari experience
It was my wife's and my first ever safari experience and Zippy and her team made it so easy to plan a safari.
We always got a quick email response for every query. Zippy and her team organized the 4-day Mara safari for me and my wife very well.
Airport pick-up, flights to and from safari destinations, camps, hotel bookings and above all actual safari game drives were all perfectly organized.
While returning from the safari, I forgot my backpack at an airport in Nairobi. Zippy went all the way back to pick up my bag and return it to me at my hotel and that too in heavy Nairobi evening traffic. I highly appreciate her helpful gesture.
Our safari guide Symon was very experienced and passionate about his job. He tirelessly answered our numerous doubts and questions.
He made it an informative and very exciting experience. We would love to visit other parks in Kenya again with him.

Dream Come True!!
We have just returned from our safari booked through Australken and we have nothing but praise for Zippy and her Team, our driver Symon was so so knowledgeable and fun to be with. Our Safari was worth each and every penny we couldn't ask for more. Long live Australken!!!

Fantastic Beyond words!
Since we began corresponding with Australken, all our questions had been perfectly answered and all our preferred hotels booked so we had no surprises on arrival other than delight. They dedicated time to cater for our specific needs and also proposed some positive changes in order to make us save some money on the final deal. Our guide was terrific and very easy-going explaining to us many things along the way at every stop. I warmly recommend them for any specific touristic needs !! thanks again to all of you for this amazing experience.

Best Value for Money !!
I was in Nairobi for a business Trip and a friend of mine had recommended Australken to me and I emailed Zippy who was prompt and came back to me with a really good offer for myself alone with my own safari vehicle. One night in Lake Naivasha and the following day in Mara which I really enjoyed.
I came back with lots of photos and very fond memories of Kenya.

Best cook best Guide!!
May I start by saving that this our 4th safari but fist to Kenya and I can not recommend this company enough. We were met at the airport by cheerful helpful Zippy who dropped us off to our Nairobi hotel. We spent a week being looked after by Daniel and Nelson. Daniel was a fantastic cook who took care of my gluten intolerance. Nelson could answer any question. Knew every bird and animal. Honestly can't recommend this firm enough and would use them again. Thank u so much!!!!

Professional from start to finish.
I would like to thank Zippy and her team for organising the best memorable honey moon for my wife and I .We had a fabulous time in Arusha, Ngororongoro and Serengeti before flying to Zanzibar for our beach extension. Our guide was really knowledgeably ,prompt, patient and we were so lucky with wildlife we saw all the big five and we really enjoyed our Zanzibar retreat as both transfers were smooth and timely.

Well Recommended!!!
We visited Kenya in February and our safari took us from Nairobi to Kericho for the Tea farms as am a tea lover and always wanted to see the farms then to Kakamega forest as my husband loves the birds and walking. We wanted a non tourist route to avoid congestion but we had to see Masai Mara and the wildlife and it was fantastic. Our guide was amazing with our teenage boys as they bonded very well. The safari was well organised by Zippy and her team and the level of service was beyond our expectation , we were really touched by the generosity and the effort that went to make our safari a success. Asante!!(Thank you)

Outstanding safari delivers more than expected service.
From first contact to seeing me off at the airport 2 weeks after my tour ended, Zippy, Evans, John and Robinson looked after my every need. Zippy called daily to the crew to find out how I was and spoke to me directly on occasion to ensure that I was happy and comfy. No breakdowns, no accidents, everything went smoothly and the itinerary was well planned and followed. John provided great meals, and we even shopped together which I enjoyed. The vehicle even has wi-fi! Evans is an expert guide and is very passionate about his vocation. We had 9 days of unforgettable game viewing and site seeing. I was so happy with Australken that I hired a driver for 2 days of touring around Nairobi at the end of my stay in Kenya. Not only did I have Robinson to drive but John came as well and we had a great time together. I have been on several safaris prior and rate this one as the best one thus far and highly recommend Australken.

Fantastic Flamingo Experience in Bogoria
I have just returned from Kenya and I had a real good experience, my goal was the flamingos and Zippy advised me to do Bogoria instead of Nakuru and for sure they were in Millions. I also had a nice safari in Solio as it was not in the usual circuit. Th whole experience was brilliant.
Thank you Zippy, Symo and the team.

Best Of Kenya and Tanzania Safari !!
We booked for 10 days East Africa safari through Australken and we were so delighted by the level of service from when we arrived in Kenya to our transfer to the Tanzanian border to do Ngorongoro and Serengeti. We enjoyed our Guides and the accommodation choice. We will come back next year to do Rwanda with them.
