They organised an excellent safari holiday for our family in the mara. They exceeded expectation
5/5

They communicated clearly on the options we had & negotiated for us good rates and special services in the two leading hotels in the Mara. They had a very helpful knowledgeable and respectful driver gum tour guide and a very comfortable van. It was the best trip to the Mara so far.

Tour operator was extremely professional, organized and responsive. Made us feel safe and welcome.
5/5

My 10 year old daughter and I went on this trip together. It was a life changing experience for both of us, and one that we will forever be grateful for. Although traveling to Africa can seem overwhelming and scary, this was entirely opposite of our experience. The staff at Aramati Safaris Ltd was amazing. They were waiting for us when we landed and remained with us for every step of our journey. They were professional, organized and extremely responsive to us. They made us feel safe and secure throughout our time in Africa and "went the extra mile." It was clear that it was important to them that we enjoy our stay but also that we fall in love with Africa and everything it has to offer. They are passionate about what they do and their excitement was infectious. I also appreciated how gentle they were with my daughter. They took their time to be sure to interact with her and to ask her questions. Moreover, when we encountered poverty they were sure to talk with her to be sure that she was emotionally processing things ok. Because of this although Aramati Safaris Ltd were initially our tour guides by the time we left we felt as if they were our family. It was the best vacation I have ever been on and an experience that my daughter and law will never forget. We plan on returning soon and when we do we will use Aramati Safaris Ltd. Not only with Aramati Safaris Ltd be the only tour guides I will ever use I would unequivocally recommend them to anyone.

I have used Aramati Safaris on four occasions (2009, 11, 13 & 15) and have been extremely satisfied.
5/5

It has been a delight to work with John Ndegwa and his stellar team at Aramati Safaris over the years. They are as professional as they are personable. And I have personally used them on four prior occasions (2009, 11, 13 and 15) and, not able to go in 2017, my colleague used them then. I am pleased to return to Kenya this coming January (2019) and without question have chosen to continue our relationship with Aramati.

John is kind, compassionate, fair, well-organized and customer-service-oriented. He and his staff go above and beyond to make our trips run smoothly. I have brought groups of college students each time and our groups have ranged in size from 22 - 32. Being in Kenya for 3 weeks requires a lot of communication with us, but also with all of the places we visit, lodge and eat. John and his staff anticipate our needs as visitors to Kenya and are both careful and eager to offer us genuine hospitality. Their "karibu" ("welcome") is earnest and comforting.

I am eager to return this January and am confident that the service we have experienced over the years will continue. I couldn't be more pleased. Therefore, I highly commend Aramati Safaris to anyone traveling to Kenya. You'll get first-rate professional service, fair-pricing, and a wonderful introduction to the beautiful country of Kenya.

Taking 22 college students on a tour of Kenya REQUIRES expert service inside Kenya.
5/5

Aramati Safaris provided that consistently. We had total confidence in owner/manager John Ndegwa. His knowledge of the country...his sense of good humor...the discipline and professionalism of the staff he assembled. If we had a problem or a question, Mr. Ndegwa was there. Our class in 2015 was a wonderful success. And it was not the first time. Aramati has been our company for several student trips...and will be our company for the next one.

Aramati Safaris made it possible
5/5

I have been bringing college students to East Africa for a number of years and I always book through Aramiti. When teaching 25 students at multiple sites around Kenya I need reliability and consistency. The staff at Aramati are knowledgeable, capable and extremely friendly. They work hard to understand the goals of our trip and the aim of the course. They then become partners. They ensure safety, timely coordination and work to create affordable bookings. I have been overwhelmingly satisfied with my experience and can’t imagine using anyone else.

Aramati Safaris is a full service tour company with professional customer service. The communication was excellent leading up to the trip. During the excursions, the team of drivers and operator were always available. They took care of every detail so that we could simply enjoy the beautiful experience as a family and group of friends. Aramati Safaris made the international travel experience from United States to Kenya a life changing event for my family. Thank you to tour operator and guides: John, David, Josh, and Daedan.

Good experience and reliable support
5/5

We worked with Aramati and John to coordinate a month long trip in Kenya. Aramati drivers were knowledgeable and courteous and we enjoyed interacting with them. Vehicles were clean and comfortable and we felt secure as we traveled from Nairobi to various parts of Kenya. Kenya is an amazing country with incredible people and parks and I would be happy to work with Aramati on future trips.
