Wonderful Trip with Africa Celebrity Tours
5/5


We took a 10 day Kenya Photo Safari with Africa Celebrity Tours & Travels in June 2017. Muli, the owner/operator, helped us create craft an amazing itinerary based on our specific needs. We were a group of three couples, each with an focus on photography.

Through the whole booking process Muli was always very informative and attentive to our questions and needs. Each time he answered our questions within 24 hours. We are in LA and I would send Muli a message before bed and have a response by morning time. He let us completely customize our itinerary and also suggested things for us to do on our last day. He took care of everything on our behalf. Because our flight landed late at night, he even booked us a hotel to rest prior to departing for our first safari at Amboseli. This was a wonderful suggestion on is behalf due to the jet lag. Everything from dinner reservations to insuring we were at the airport on time was taken care of by Muli. I was particularly amazing that he helped us unload our luggage and explained the Nairobi airport security system. Talk about going a step above! I celebrated my birthday while on safari and to my surprise Muli arranged a grand entrance and birthday song by hotel staff and a few Masai after dinner. IT was a true surprise and a fantastic memory of my time in Kenya! Thank you!

Our driver Joseph was fantastic! He is a very good and safe driver and I felt very safe with him. His nature spotting and ability to position us in prime photographic positions is absolutely second to none. He explained animal behavior which I found to be so interesting as we watched nature unfold before our very eyes. We did see "The Big Five."

It's with real sincerity that I recommend Africa Celebrity Tours & Travels. They are a small company with a big heart. Thank you for the wonderful memories. We are already looking to return next year!

An Amazing, Unforgettable Experience
5/5

We just returned from an awe-inspiring private six person photography safari throughout Kenya with Africa Celebrity Tours & Travels. Muli Muema, the owner/operator, helped us craft an amazing itinerary of National Park highlights with nights at some of the best lodges in the country.

I was initially hesitant to book with them because the price came in considerably lower than what other companies had quoted us; to the point that it seemed suspicious. But they are KATO bonded, which was very reassuring. And Muli more than earned our trust. He was wonderfully communicative throughout the entire process, despite the ten hour time difference; from our initial exploratory emails, through our booking and up to the day of our departure. He let us completely customize our itinerary (we wanted more time at Masai Mara) and add last-minute excursions like a boat ride on Lake Naivasha and personal adventures like trips to Karen Blixen Museum and the elephant orphanage. He took care of everything on our behalf. He booked our additional lodging in Nairobi the night we arrived. He made reservations for our dinner before we returned home. He even dropped us off at the airport, helped us unload our luggage and explained the unique Nairobi airport security system. It was like visiting a city where your friend lives. He is extremely responsible, trustworthy and courteous. I cannot recommend Africa Celebrity Tours & Travels highly enough.

Upon arrival in Nairobi, we found that the airline left our bags behind when we changed planes in London. With our group embarking on our safari the next morning, Muli stayed on top of everything in Nairobi. He ensured that our trip could continue on schedule without any added stress. He arranged for our driver to take us shopping for replacement supplies and ensured that our bags were delivered to us by bush plane at a remote airstrip in Amboseli National Park. It was an amazing effort. Muli truly went above and beyond. He is a top-notch, responsible professional and Africa Celebrity Tours is first-rate organization (which is not something I would say about British Airways).

Our amazing and friendly driver Joseph was incredibly skilled at everything from navigating the white knuckle Nairobi traffic to the muddy roads in the Masai Mara. He is more knowledgable about wildlife than many naturalists I have encountered at American parks. He explained intricate animal behavior, recognized bird calls, and spotted naturally camouflaged big cats while safely driving us through the parks. Joseph knew the exact times and places to be for animal viewing and put us in better positions for photography and video than any of the other vehicles we encountered in the parks. We saw "The Big Five."

All in all, it was a wonderful, unforgettable adventure. I already have friends who have seen our photos of some of the jaw-dropping sights of Kenya and want to do similar journeys of their own. I haven't hesitated to recommend Africa Celebrity Tours & Travels.

Asante sana.

"African Celebrity Tours & Travels" Giving a professional touch in Tours and Travels
5/5

African Celebrity Tours & Travels made our family Safari to Masai Mara during the Easter holiday really enjoyable. We enjoyed the view of almost all wild animals in Masai Mara, much appreciations to our much experienced tour guide who was always there to respond to our requests. Thanks Muli and your team for the esteemed hospitality all through the period and the professional approach in conducting all your businesses. The accommodation and game drives were all superb courtesy of African Celebrity Tours & Travels which made us feel at 'home away home'. Thanks African Celebrity Tours and Travels and keep up the good work. I will book for a family tour again with you soon.

Very professional service, great impressions overall
5/5

Muli and his team are wonderfully professional and pleasant to deal with. I organized three trips for my guests though Africa Celebrity Tours and the experience couldn't have been smoother. In Africa you often have to deal with slower pace of things, yet Muli was always prompt to answer emails, always available by phone and text, and quite flexible in the event the guests' preferences had to be adjusted. He also personally came to see off the guests departing on the safari early in the morning. The driver Joseph was wonderfully patient and accommodating. My guests managed to see all the big five during their first visit, even with this being the low season. Would definitely use Africa Celebrity Tours for all my future trips and would gladly recommend them to anyone! Keep up the great work, guys!

The review below is the personal opinion of Beatrice and not that of SafariBookings.
The experience was ok but not over the top considering the name 'celebrity tours'
3/5

The lodge was great, the safari was not good, there were no animals to see. Our driver din't communicate clearly e.g he Said it was 20 dollars to visit a masaai village n on arrival to the village, it was 20 dollars Per person. Some drivers were getting to close to the animals n he Said it was not allowed and he was actually obligated to report if he saw one but he din't coz he Said they were masaai's. Our car had a problem driving back to nairobi which made everyone tense.

Amazing
5/5

Our Safari experience couldn't be better. Africa Celebrity staff are very helpful, friendly and polite. We spent 4 days in total, the first one at Lake Nakuru doing also the boat Safari at Lake Naivasha and the others at Masai Mara reserve spending one night at Masai Mara Village. I strongly recommend Safari in Kenya and if you are looking for the best experience doing that, please make a favor to yourself contacting Africa Celebrity staff! This guys know how to do it!
