Great experience for our family
My family just got back from a month in Africa, and it was the best vacation any of us have ever had. Asila Adventures was a big part of our time in Africa, and they did a fantastic job! We had booked through another company, but they didn’t operate in Kenya, and so they passed us on to Asila for Lake Nakuru, the Maasai Mara, and Amboseli.
We started our trip with Sammie, who was fantastic. He was very welcoming, was great with our kids, and worked exceptionally hard for us. He knew so much about the different animals, and really helped us understand them and the places we went to. He taught our kids a little Swahili, and made sure we all had an awesome time.
After returning to Kenya from Tanzania, we met up with Jimmy, who was the most knowledgeable of all our guides. He was very patient when we wanted to stop to look at weird things (camels or bones). He asked us where else we had been/ were going, and he worked especially hard to make sure we saw things that we wouldn’t be able to see anywhere else.
Both safari cars were awesome, and had charging stations and cool water in them for us to use as necessary. I strongly recommend Asila to anyone who is going on safari in Kenya! Thank you so much!

Amazing with eye for detail and family friendly
We had an amazing 6 night safari in Masai Mara thanks to Adili Adventures who took care of everything from hotel booking to guide provision and keeping eye for details with our infant baby as well. We also enjoyed the Enkorok Mara campsite nestled in the Masai Mara plains and its very eco friendly. Our guide Jimmy was very knowledgeable, friendly and took care of us at every bit.
We will travel again with Asili adventures in the future and recommend them highly.

Best safari! Couldn’t expect more.
I have recently done a private 9day safari with Asili Adventures, booked though their partners African Budget Safaris. My safari was on Kenya and Tanzania. I could not recommend more this company. All was excellent and had a great time with both teams. Here a short description of the safari:
- Kenya: here I visited masai Mara, hells gate and the Naivasha lake and Ambuseli. my drives/guide was Jimmy, and trip was on a 4x4. I stayed in middle range lodges. The game drive was excellent: saw a lot of animals, and Jimmy gave me a a lot of explanations about animals, parks, and also about Kenyan culture. As it was my preference my game drive always started very early in the morning (around 6am) and ended on the afternoon, just after the parks close, so I had the time to see a lot of animals (I even saw a leopard, really close). Jimmy patiently drove me as far as he could so I could have an excellent game drive. Food was ok (not very special here but ok). A very nice experience was to have a hot meal in the middle of Masai Mara, just under an Acacia tree. Really made me feel like I’m was in the Out of Africa movie. Lodges were nice and cozy. I really appreciated to stay in Ekonoro lodge. All the covid requirements to enter Tanzania were taken care by my guide and asili office responsible (Monica), and everything was smooth quiet. This is a major point in this covid times.
Tanzania: in Tanzania I visited Manyara national park, sarangeti and Ngorongoro crater. My driver/guide was Silva and my chef was Emanuel. Those guys were simply the best and deserve everything in the world. I stayed in tents in public campings. The food was amazing! Had hot meals from breakfast to dinner, and always very tasty and a lot of food! Emanuel is an excellent chef, and I could notice that all the food was made with extremely care! If you guys decide to go with Asili, ask Emanuel as a chef. My guide, Silva, was also extremely careful. He met me at Kenya/Tanzania border and helped me going through it, with all the papers and requirements. He also Made the best so I could have a good game drive: I saw a lot of animals in Tanzania, even the climbing tree lions. A lot of Lions, wildbeasts, chitas, Cubs, zebras, all kind of antelopes….. on the last day I stayed that I really wanted to see the Rhino
