Top vacation
Booked with Kikwetu shortly before leaving to Kenya. They could organize the trip according to our wishes. Livingstone was our guide in Kenya. He really showed knowledge about wildlife and did his level best to show us the big 5 and more. In Tanzania we had a mismatch with the first guide, but it was quickly solved by Kikwetu. Peter was an excellent tour guide who i would recommend to anyone going to Tanzania. The tented camps in Tanzania are of a bit lower standard then the ones in Kenya, but very exciting to wake up during the night due to the sound of hyena's or lions.
We had a superb safari, well organised and with an excellent guide and driver.
The whole trip went well, from the earliest contact with Kikwetu. We couldn't have had a better guide than Isaac Oumar, who is an expert on the habits of the wildlife and culture of the area. Together with our very competent driver Robert, they were able to predict the best places to view even elusive animals like leopards, lion prides, and a broad range of animals by predicting their hideouts and behaviour. We thoroughly enjoyed their company and learnt much about the region. I would now like to do other tours led by Isaac who is an expert on the whole east coast even beyond Kenya I believe.
Excellent Safari Package
Excellent Safari Package
Thanks to Kikwetu Cultural Adventures for a safari well executed. My husband and I together with our two children had a 7 days trip to Kenya in the month of April. This was our first time in Africa. At first we never knew how to go about the safari planning until we came across Kikwetu. Kenneth was quick in replying to our mails and within a short duration he gave us a perfect itinerary at an affordable cost.
The safari was well organized and the driver/guide was charming and professional. We enjoyed our safari very much and the seven days seemed very short. We will use this company for our future tours in Kenya. We recommend Kikwetu to you and be rest assured that you will get the value for your money.

Another lovely experience in Kenya
We had an eight days safari in February with Kikwetu Cultural Adventures visiting Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara and the Kenyan Coast (Mombasa). This was my second time using the services of this company and as to my expectation the planning, execution and delivery was well above board. Although this time we had somewhat a tight budget they were still able to customize a wonderful and memorable safari for us. The accommodation and food was of high quality. Kenneth, was very helpful in planning the safari and was very quick in answering our emails. Isaac, our guide, was very knowledgeable, passionate and so resourceful, we had easy time in spotting animals. Mombasa was a paradise! I have been in many coastal towns but there was something so unique with the Kenyan beach. The tropical weather here was so welcoming. We had time to visit several place including the famous Fort Jesus. All in all we enjoyed our stay in Kenya and the excellent services offered by Kikwetu. I can now confidently recommend this company to anyone who wants to enjoy the Kenyan safari even with a tight budget. Thank you guys.

An amazing experience
We have just returned from a seven day tour of Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and the Masai Mara. The excellent reviews of this company proved well deserved. We are a mature aged couple who travelled with a first class guide and excellent driver in a safari van with a pop-up roof. From the start, Kenneth had responded promptly to our needs, with very helpful suggestions and information. The accommodation arranged was very good, and though there was a lot of driving involved we profited from the expertise of our guide and driver not only to spot the full range of animals, even when they were camouflaged in the wilderness, but also to learn details of their habitat. A highly recommended team.

Well Organized Safari- Amazing!!!!!
In April 2014 we went on a safari with Kikwetu Cultural Adventures and it was absolutely amazing. From the pick up in Nairobi to being dropped off at the airport everything was so well planned and executed. We were so blown away by the beauty of Kenya's national parks and its animals. Our guide Kenneth and the team made the whole experience even better. Was so knowledgeable and enthusiast about everything and so easy going dealing with overly excited people. I would Strongly recommend this company to anyone who is looking into a Kenyan Safari. I plan on returning to Kenya for another safari with Kenneth as my guide again. Thanks very much Kikwetu!!!!

Kikwetu is your number one safari planner.I'd use it again,and I'd recommend to anyone.Asante sana!
Our safari in Kenya was such a success, thanks to Kikwetu Cultural Adventures for putting it up in a wonderful manner. We were traveling in a group of four and we enjoyed every bit of it, from the welcoming Kenyan people to the stunning wildlife. It was great to taste the delicious local dishes in Mombasa. We enjoyed the lifestyle and culture of the Masais in Samburu; the women in beads, the morans and many more. Our guide spotted the big five in Masai Mara with ease. Thanks Kikwetu Cultural for your professional services. We will link you up with our friends.

My Kenyan Safari
My fiancée and I have just finished our Kenya safari with Kikwetu Cultural Adventures. This company is just superb and very organized, they helped to tailor make a 6 day safari for us through Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. The safari was private and we were only two of us in a 4 by 4 landcruizer. We had the chance to see the big five and very many other animals as well as the birds by the help of their ever happy guide (they have professional staff), the accommodation options they made for us were more than our expectations and the magnificent sunset in the lodges brought out the romantic theme as we wished. Thumbs up to you guys you made the safari so sweet and memorable. We intend to come back in December to visit Mombasa and other places we missed. Kudos.
