excellent, safe and knowledgeable
me and my partner was skeptical about booking a safari via a non uk tour operator but we glad we did. everything was great.
Before the trip we went back and forward with them to make sure we selected the best camp for our needs.
We ran in to complications with our flight and needed to change our collection time.
No issues. they were super flexible and collected us from the airport at 5am!
The car was clean and perfect for off-roading
Are driver Joshua made us feel comfortable enough with his steady driving to fall asleep on the way to the reserve.
We also had no issues if the weather/terrain for driving was compromised (compared with some others in older cars!)
Mara bush camp was great and he standards beyond expectation.
game drivers were enjoyable and Joshua's knowledge of the animals and the reserve was fantastic.
we asked so many questions and he responded well. you could tell it wasn't just a job for Joshua but something he loved
Have told my friends about the service and if ever in Kenya again will definitely rebook with Right choice safaris

He is great and knowledgeable.
It was a wonderful experience with Right Choice. The hotel and food were great than we expected. The tour guy/drive (his name is Jacob) is very good. We were lucky we saw a lot of animals. The people in Kenya are very nice. Bring more changes for tips. Highly recommended Right Choice for Safaris.

Amazing experience with incredible guide and professional team
We recently visited Kenya and Tanzania on a tour organized by Right Choice, and had an unforgettable experience. Our trip designer, George, was helpful and prompt in responding to our numerous email and always contactable by whatapp Our trip included a safari in both the Maasai Mara,Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti Central, Serengeti North and Tarangire.
Each of our accommodations were comfortable, the food was great, and the staff were both welcoming and helpful.
We love the experience and the hotels. It was a dream trip lived intensely and that exceeded all our expectations. Of course, our guide, Chambuso, contributed a lot to make everything go so smoothly. Always very available, attentive, fun and constantly looking for the best time to find another animal ☺️
We were able to see the 'Big 5' on safari, as we were hoping (along with SO many other animals). We loved having a private tour which meant that we could tailor each day to our needs and wants.
We would highly recommend Right Choice to fellow travelers, and hope to one day book another visit to Africa.

Professional, friendly, accommodating and easy delivery of a perfect bucket-list holiday
After a huge amount of planning and delayed arrangements, due to Covid-19, my girlfriend and I were FIANLLY able to depart on our holiday of a lifetime.
George had been exceptionally professional and diligent in his planning and communication throughout the process and this did not falter despite the global pandemic. Only a week prior to departing, my girlfriends' dream came true when we were contacted by Giraffe Manor, informing us that a room had become available. At the drop of a hat, George managed to rearrange the later parts of our trip to accommodate this very late change in plan. For this reason alone, I cannot thank, nor recommend, Right Choice in any higher way. For 4 years, we had a solid plan, booked into hotels and a clear schedule in place. Only a week before departure, George had rearranged our last 3 days. This is proof enough that he, and all the staff at Right Choice, go above and beyond in their customer service.
We arrived in Nairobi and we were taken, by taxi, to our hotel. The hotel was beautiful and every single member of staff went out of their way to ensure we had an amazing day, prior to departure on the safari.
The following day we met our guide for the safari, Sami. Without a doubt, a good guide will make or break your safari experience and Sami was incredible. We made our way to the Maasai Mara. We arrived at the first hotel (Keekorok Lodge) which, whilst stunning, was the most basic of the hotels we stayed in. All the staff here, again, were amazing. The rooms did need some TLC but it was plenty good enough. The next 3 days were a blur. Early starts, hot air balloon rides and such an amazing abundance of perfect, beautiful wildlife, we were in awe. Sami made sure that we were able to see everything and more and, unlike several other guides, he was wonderfully respectful of the wildlife. This is something which we would have wanted but it was clear that Sami loved and appreciated the wildlife as much as we did.
We left Keekorok Lodge and went to Lake Nukuru. The hotel was just breath-taking. Here we saw the missing piece of our Big 5, both the Black and White Rhino. The huge amount of different and amazing birds which were easily spotted could have upstaged the wildlife.
Amboselli? Yet again, the hotel and national park were just perfect. We had seen all the wildlife that we thought possible however this park kept on delivering the surprises.
The last stage of the safari presented the most perfect hotel on the safari; Kilaguni Safari Lodge. This hotel was beyond all comprehension and the watering hole, visited by all sorts of wildlife (elephant, giraffe, zebra etc) was just the most mind-blowing experience whilst we ate.
We departed and stayed for a night at Giraffe Manor which needs no review. Its just another moment in a bucket-list experience and was yet another unique experience.
Finally, we had an internal flight to Mombasa, for the Baobab Beach Resort. Again, another great hotel and a wonderful moment to relax before coming home.
Overall, the holiday was nothing but a bucket-list experience delivered with professionalism and ease. George could not have been any more caring, delivering an amazing level of customer service. Sami was the perfect guide for the trip. Whilst Keekorok Lodge needed some minor repairs, it did not disappoint. Every person we encountered were determined to deliver the most amazing holiday for us.
I would recommend that people understand how the hotels work as we didnt realise that we needed to pay for all our drinks and thought that they were included with our package. They werent. This had absolutely no impact on our holiday and is no problem whatsoever, its just something to be aware of.
We cant thank George or Sami enough for everything that they did. We have been recommending this exact holiday, Right Choice and Sami, to many people since we returned. Communication and service was excellent throughout. Yes, this is an expensive holiday but it really is a bucket-list experience.

Definitely the Right Choice
Read about right choice tours on safari bookings and started communicating with them. Very prompt and efficient service from george. They were able to offer us the package that we wanted and at the most competitive price. Without even talking to them on phone - all arrangements were done on emails quite efficiently. They were even helpful in planning a tour for us in Nairobi city (giraffe centre and elephant orphanage) in addition to our 3 day all inclusive Masai mara safari
George who was our guide and driver for the three days was very knowledgeable and made sure that we had an amazing time in all our safari runs over the course of three days. Well versed with English so no communication issues whatsoever.
Would highly recommend their services.

PROFESSIONAL
We were a family group of seven adults on tour to Masai Mara National park in August 2022. George arranged a Toyota Land Cruiser with Joshua on the wheels. George was very professional and prompt to respond.
We found Joshua an excellent guide who would take us to the wild life i.e. Lions Leopard Cheetah Elephants wild Buffaloes Crocodiles Hippos etc etc. Though we failed to find out Rhino inspite of all the efforts of our guide yet we enjoyed our game safaris. Joshua was always punctual and helpful to our demands and needs.
I recommend the agency.

excellent
Big thanks to all at Right choice for the wonderful safari we had ending 9 August. Jakob was a perfect host – his knowledge of the animals and the parks really added to the experience. He was an amazing driver: safe and quick and with not a single pot hole or speedbump surprised him. And he was an ideal companion for our entire trip.

Highly recommend!
This was the second time we had traveled to Kenya with Right Choice Safari. George, the agency owner, is very professional, quick to respond and accomodating. He was able to modify our itinerary multiple times due to Covid related issues, baggage loss, flight cancelations. He made himself available at all times when we had a question, before, during and after the trip.
Our tour guides were professional and accomodating. They all spoke great English and had studied tourism.
George coordinated the delivery of my mom's luggage that was misplaced by the airline.
We would definitely travel with Right Choice Safari again!

Highly recommended your operator
I was a little hesitant at booking a 7 day tour solely with a company online and I do t regret it at all! The company were very responsive to all of my questions and tailored an itinerary to for with our flights. We opted for right choice safaris to organise use the accommodation for the first night in Nairobi, in hindsight I’d probably book this element myself but the rest of the accommodation was superb - particularly Entim Camp in the Masai Mara, what a setting, and then Cliff Lodge at Lake Nakauru - sadly only one night at the lake, i would recommend at least two here and at least three in the Masai Mara! Our tour guide, Apollo, was great - so experienced and knew where to go and when, we were up early each morning and saw some amazing sights. The company requested a deposit on line and then we paid the rest in cash on arrival - Apollo was there to pick us up at the airport and took us to the company office to pay the balance before dropping us at the Nairobi hotel for the night. We were collected the next morning for the adventure to begin! If we book a safari in the future, I would definitely turn to this company first. They genuinely tailor the itinerary to suit your requests and answer all the questions you may have!

Outstanding quality for price
My wife and I traveled to Kenya and Tanzania for a 10 day safari with 1 day spent in Nairobi. After extensive research and getting different quotes from other tour agencies, Right Choice provided the best price while maintaining quality accommodation. From start to finish George was always available to answer any and all of my many questions, as well as helping us plan our anniversary trip to our liking. We were able to select the tour we wanted and change some of the accommodations to fit what we were looking for. We were able to see and experience Masai Mara, Serengeti, Amboseli, Tarangire, and so much more. What an incredible experience! George went above and beyond to ensure our travels were special and memorable. Highly recommend Right Choice Safaris for your upcoming travels to east Africa.
