It was a very pleasant, safe and exotic travel experience
Communication with Kenneth was very warm, he was always available and would check on everything being okay at regular but also not too frequently so as to be disturbing. Masai Mara and the wildlife cannot be described In Words, needs to be experienced. The animals were like I'm live in national geographic, lovely giraffes, zebra, we saw the migration of wildbeast, 5 sets of lions in different combinations in 1 day. One was a troop resting withncubs, one was a honeymoon couple, one was alone drinking water, one lion and lioness in the grassland whom we saw very closely. Also saw hyenas, vultures, leopard, cheetah and many many birds . Wish we had kept one more day for Masai Mara, the caravan picked us from the airport and was with us through the safari. The guide was knowledgeable and experiences and showed us good sightings but was a bit arrogant and particular about timings, tried to push us to shop at designated places (which were expensive) but we enjoyed buying stuff from locals on roadside at the entry point to the park.
We also visited Zanzibar and that experience was out of the world, the guide there Muhudini was very pleasant and showed us around very patiently, the place was beautiful - lovely waters and snorkel. Also saw dolphins on the boat ride. Enjoyed plantation and the culture of the place, everyone should consider incorporating Zanzibar islands in their Africa travel. All in all the entire trip was very well planned and we were welcomed at all places with good hospitality and returned back safe and sound, and since Kikwetu is local to the trip was exotic and in our budget

My trip causes to a series of personal problems would never have started without the availability of Kenneth and the seriousness of Kikwetu CulturAvedntures. 7 safari days to Masai Mara, Nayvasha lake, Amboseli e Tsavo perfectly organized, 7 beach day in Watamu e tha last day in Nairobi.... Always on time, every booking no surprise and no annoyance.
Thank You Brother Kenneth

Attentive arrangements, humorous driver , excellent tour.
Our tailor made tour is arranged by David and Kenneth. The accommodations and tours are well organised. Chris who is a humorous driver and knowledgeable in animals and birds. He tried to show us as many animals as possible during games drives. David and Kenneth are attentive to our needs especially Kenneth who even called us at 05:00 for our early flight to Livingstone to make sure everything is going smoothly. They are really reliable and I recommend Kikwetu Cultural Aventure to all travelers to Kenya.

Unexpectedly wonderful experience
The 7 day Kenyan tour we went for was lovely.
Everything went smoothly from the beginning to the end. Our accommodation was unexpectedly lovely. Everything from the food to the rooms was wonderful.
Our guide Chris is a really charming guy and loves cracking jokes to make the long rides less painful!
He tried his best to find us animals on the game drives and the best positions to take pictures!

Fullfilled all that was agreed.
We asked for a half day tour in NNP, with a very early pick up at the hotel.
We were amongst the first ones in, just before sun rise.
Our driver/guide was very punctual, helpful with explanations and tried his best to show us all the highlights of the Park.
Kikwetu Cultural Adventures managed to give us exactly what we asked for. Comparing to the other companies we inqruired, they achived the best quality/price ratio.
I Will definitely recommend them to friends and family.

Outstanding Safari Adventure
We started booking our trip a year in advance, and we couldn’t have anything better than the itinerary that Kenneth arranged. Words cannot explain how amazing Livingston was to us, ensuring that we didn’t leave Masai Mara without seeing the Rhino, even though it caused him stress. We saw the big five and a cheetah kill, which was great.
Thank you Kenneth and Livingston for making this an unforgettable trip.

The Ultimate 80 Day African Safari of a Life Time Made Possible by Kikwetu
At the age of 70, I decided to fulfill a lifelong dream and visit different countries in Africa. From the beginning it was clear to me that I wanted an African tour operator and through client reviews I came upon Kikwetu Cultural Adventures and Ken. It was the best that could have happened to me.
During the long period of planning, since the places I wanted to go and the things I wanted to do kept increasing while I was reading about the continent, Ken's response vía e-mail to my multiple questions and doubts was constant, immediate and always helpful in orientation. Finally, I ended up with a 80 day private Safari in Kenya, Uganda, Botswana, Zimbabwe, North Sudan and Ethiopia. Ken has the itinerary (if someone is interested), since he arranged for everything. For me, there is only left to say, it was absolutely perfect: Not one single thing that went wrong during the 80 days, excellent logistics, warm, detailed personalized attention throughout, more than fair cost/benefit relation, but above all, an outstanding, caring, knowledgeable team of guides and drivers who turned into dear friends. Thank you Ken, thank you Livingstone with the memory of an elephant and the eyes of an eagle (!), thank you Agustin in Uganda for always proving my much loved dried bananas and encouraging me on that memorable gorilla trekking in Bwindi, thanks to Mr. Achmed and his team for making it possible to visit the most incredible sites in Sudan, thank you Birhanu for providing exactly what I needed when I came back totally wiped out from Erta Ale and thank you, Alex, for making me laugh, getting me on and off the camel and for the many other funny occasions we shared on our safari!
If I could, I would do it all over again and I would not want to miss one single day of an unforgettable experience!
¡Thank you all!

Thanks Kikwetu for taking so well care of us
We selected Kikwetu among other Kenyan agencies after smooth email and WhatsApp exchanges with Kenneth, tailoring our itinerary and lodge preferences. Our guide Livingstone provided excellent wildlife spotting in the National Parks and pleasant drives through the country side, with interesting conversations. We opted for a second week on lovely Wasini Island, and Kikwetu organised further transport to Mombasa and train tickets back to Nairobi. Thanks Kikwetu for taking so well care of us. We can warmly recommend this Team to other families.
