Great experience with a good price.
Every information I received from Right Choice Tours & Safaris was correct.
George (the boss) is very professional and reliable. Tour guides were good. Accomodation was OK, just a little bit "basic", but good relationship between price and quality (Right Choice Tours & Safaris' offer was the cheapest I found in high season).
The only remark I can make is that the last day we leaved from Savana just a little bit earlier that what we agreed.
We suggest this operator.

seen a lot of animals
It was a great experience. Communication was easy and organisation very comfortable. Jakob the guide did his best to find a lot of animals. Though the bus was a bit old, and the road to Masai Mara is long and difficult.
Good operator, reasonably priced and very responsive
Right Choice was the most responsive operator I found and they followed up on all my questions and suggestions in a timely manner. The tour costs were extremely competitive for what you get and they were very flexible on customizing the tour. For instance, I asked that I did not want to go over Likoni ferry on the way from Tsavo to Diani and we worked out a back route bypassing Mombasa altogether. As an aside, if you are planning to go to Masai Mara, make sure you choose a 4wd.

Tour guide was excellent but be prepared to pay more in Kenya
Overall the tour was very good, our tour guide Jacob knew the Masai Mara like the back of his hand and found us more wildlife than we could have imagined possible.
The only thing that lets the tour down slightly is what you get for the price compared to other safaris in countries like South Africa. I’ve done a lot of safaris and it was more than twice the price in Kenya so you kind of expect somethings to be better - our hotel was amazing but the beds were not particularly comfortable and our lunch that was included on the last day wasn’t actually at our nice hotel it was just on the way home somewhere which wasn’t great. We would have also liked to see a bit more of the Mara Triangle rather than just the bit of park we were in as we had 3 nights, so maybe next time we will ensure the hotel is in that area.
also our car broke down a few times and especially for photography it would have been nice to have a different style - eg open sides etc. This is down the the tour operator not our driver.
As I said, for wildlife and seeing what we wanted Jacob overdelivered. His knowledge was amazing, knew how to position the vehicle perfectly for photos and he showed us so many big cats we couldn’t keep count.
I would give Jacob our driver above a 5/5 but the few other points I’ve made are something right choice can improve on going forwards.
Little things and it was almost perfect.

Helpful and friendly
Travel agency is very Co operative and friendly.
From airport to airport drop they provided services.
Nairobi hotel stay in Best Western Meridian was very good. Local Travel and local guide were ok.
Travel in Land Cruiser to Masai Mara was very good. Stay in Simba lodge there was good, rooms were very good, vegetarian food there was good, but they don't provide drinking water in breakfast lunch and dinner and you have to buy drinking water, that's bad. In rooms also they provide half litre bottle per person per day, additional you have to buy. Hotel staff and driver were friendly and helpful.

Amazing Safari
We chose the 7 days Safari from Nairobi to Mombasa, going through Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli NP and Tsavo West.
Our contact from the company was George. Very nice and helpful at any times. You can trust him.
The trip was amazing! We have seen the big five and a lots of others animals. We have witnessed the beginning of the migration.
All of the hotel booked by George were magical. We would almost be sad because we didn’t have enough time to enjoy these beautiful places.
Also David, our guide, was very kind and considerate with us, patient and good guide/driver. Sometimes disorganized but it’s fine.
Negative side: The traffic.
From Nairobi to Amboseli National Park traffic was VERY disturbed and slow. It took 6 hours to get to the hotel. So we have lost the entire day on the road.. No game drive the evening.
Anyway, I recommend this company. You will not be disappointed. Very good value for the price.
Thanks again to them.

The best moments
It was almost perpect. If your travel agent has kept the specified schedule and accomodations. At least, the travel agent should have told me that it can not be changed because of the distance. But Guide had a skillful man. also, Kenya is amazing

Tour of Kenya, August 2018.
We traveled through the parks of Kenya by a small group of 4 people. The company was chosen thanks to Elena, the Russian-speaking manager. After much discussion, the route was approved: Samburu-Solio-Bogoria-Naivasha-Masai Mara. The trip was organized at a good level, but there are a few comments. In Masai Mara we were replaced with a samp and settled in the ENCHOROW WILDLIFE samp Masai Mara. They greeted us cordially, but this was all wrong. We had 2 houses, in one the toilet was in disassembled condition and the water was flowing with a river, and all three days we were trying to fix it, but it was not possible. There were also problems with light. Burning wood and firewood burned next to the other house, it was impossible to breathe. But we made an advance payment, so that we booked everything in advance. The firm promised that we will have a cook, but right on the day of departure, they said that he was sick and only appeared in Masai Mar, but we do not think that it was our cook, since we ate our own table. We travel a lot and we know what our chef is, by the way there were groups with his cook.
I would like to say a big thank you to Elena for the prompt resolution of all the questions that arose, if her trip had not been spoiled for her help.
Thank you to the wonderful guide of the driver of Kagum, his skill and knowledge allowed us to see everything that we wanted.
And the company wants to wish that it clearly fulfilled its promises and carefully chose partners.
