unforgetable 5days Masai Mara and Amboseli national park
The journey started where we were picked up in Nairobi very early in the morning at no extra cost.The guide ensured that we had an evening game drive in Masai Mara and we spotted lots of lions,elephants and even baby lions.The next day we were given an all nutrient rich packed lunch as we spent the whole day in the park,visited the Masai village and there was lots of entertainment including bonfire in the evening.
Amboseli national park was the place where we spotted the biggest elephants ever.
Thank you to Pega Tours and Travel Agency for this unforgettable experience.

Unforgettable three days in Masai Mara
Everything was perfect right from the beginning. I booked my safari in Nakuru with Pega Tours, as I was very pleased with their welcoming, natural style, the clear information I got to my questions, and the very reasonable price. We had a warm welcome from the great guide/driver John, then took off in a very comfortable vehicle with pop-up roof. We had a buffet- lunch in a quiet restaurant inside a garden. The camp, slightly outside the Mara, was cozy, well maintained with lots of flowers, and friendly staff. It had simply furnished tents with private bathrooms and a small veranda, a buffet-style restaurant/bar and picknick tables for sitting outside, reading, dreaming, listening to the birds ... After a rest at the camp, we went on our first game drive, beautiful. The next day was a full-day game-drive, absolutely unforgettable. We saw amazing numbers of wildlife, including a pride of lions, a leopard, and even a cheetah with her cubs !!! The guide/driver John was a friendly, experienced, very knowledgeable man, he explained us so much, in perfect english, obviously he really liked his job. He really made our trip so much more enjoyable, apart from the wildlife, of course. For lunch, we had a picknick by the river, peaceful, nice views.
On the next morning we had a last game-drive, where we saw a rhino, so everybody got to see the "big five" apart from lots of zebra, wildebeest, various types of antilope, gazelle, as well as many giraffes, buffalos, hippos, crocodiles, and lovely scenery. There was an excursion to a Masai village later on(I didn't participate, as I had met so many Masai people before) but the people who went said, they had enjoyed it. Leaving the camp and the Mara was very sad ...... On the way back we had a last good lunch at a lovely restaurant, and as I didn't want to go back to Nakuru, at my demand, John dropped me at Naivasha, near Lake Naivasha. I had three unforgettable, happy days and I know, I was lucky for having gone with this honest, friendly company. Thanks so much !!!

Amazing
It was an amazing three day experience in the Mara. We saw the big four on day two but we missed the migration. Stayed at an amazing hotel with great food and service.
Loved the service of the company and the driver was on time as agreed. Very patient young man called Dennis. It's what I would call value for your money. The Masai village was a nice experience as well. Getting to know the culture is still rich.

Horrible
The experience was a nightmare ,from the time of pickup, amount, choice of hotel and the tour guide who had no knowledge of what he does as a guide .The land cruiser was filthy with lots of mechanical problems (over heating)
The worst part was the food.

Dishonest cheats!
Try to avoid this safari company at all costs! Reasons below:
1. We were quoted 120 USD for 2 people for a private safari. After reaching, we were put together with 3 more people, who paid 45 USD each, but the price was not reduced for us. Later, after finding out, when we asked for a refund, it was denied by the company.
2. The safari promised was for 12 hours. The guide cum driver (the owner's son) stopped abruptly at 12:30 for a 3 hour break. They probably have a connection with this hotel, and though we all carried our own food, we had to stay in the hotel for this time.
3. The homestay was in the owner's house. The flush does not work properly, the bathroom does not drain, so you are in a pool of dirty water.
4. The owner's wife would knock and enter the room without waiting for a reply.
5. We were forced to leave at the same time as the owner and his sons left for office, since they wanted to economize on one round to drop us at the bus station.
6. After all of this, and cheating us of 30 USD, the owner was trying hard to sell their Masaai Mara package to us, though we kept telling things were already arranged.
Our trip was amazing, except for this single experience.

Dishonest.
I emailed the company prior to arriving at nakuru to get a price for 2 people to hire a safari van and driver to visit nakuru national park. I was told 10,000KES as per the website was correct plus 2000kesfor the driver. When booking we were told the van would be for just the 2 of us and would be a 6:30am-6:30pm full day game drive. The driver collected us at 7:30 an hour later than agreed and there was already 2 other passengers in the van. We were told we could have 1000kes discount on our price per person but then this was retracted. The game driver was finished by lunch time and we were back at out villa for 2:30pm. Huge disappointment as we didnt get to see all the animals and how they behave during different times of the day. Avoid this company at all costs. Dishonest, unreliable, overpriced, under delivered! Poor customer service only interested in your money!!!!

They did not deliver what was promised
We were not given the trip that was guaranteed. we did not get to the hot springs played for a full trip and were back to our home within five hours. They deliver terrible service.
