Great tour of Amboselli
My mum and I visited Kenya from Australia and did a 3 day / 2 night safari to Amboselli with Bed of Roses. We really couldn’t fault anything about the tour. We were met at the airport by Mercy and we stayed at OlTukai lodge which was amazing. Our driver Daniel was very good and knowledgeable and did his best for us to see all the animals in the park. Despite the time of year not being the best for Amboselli we still saw lot of animals including elephants, zebras, giraffes, flamingos, hippos and a lion. We were lucky on our last day too that we saw the mountain in great visibility. We went with the 4x4 Safari jeep with open roof and I highly recommend this over the minibuses if your budget allows (although the minibuses we saw also had the open roof so you wont miss out on views, just it was a little bit wet and muddy so the 4x4 was reassuring we wouldn't get stuck).
We realised we were the first customers for this company and this was a little nerve-wracking for us as we wanted to ensure the company was legitimate. Dickson was very responsive and sent us the accommodation confirmation (which we needed anyway for the entry visa) and reassured us we were booked in for the tour. He also advised us they are registered with the TRA, and I independently checked this.
We felt very well looked after, safe and I would recommend this company.

Really friendly and welcoming
What a great experience with Isiah. Takes time to get used to the culture of super friendly people. Sometimes things take time since no-one is in a rush but that’s what I loved the best about our journey. Everything from transportation to food was taken care of and our guide was very knowledgeable about the wilderness.

If we return for another tour, we will hire Reteti Adventure Safari again!
RAS was super accommodating. They communicated with us frequently and effectively. No surprises. The driver was excellent. The pick-up and drop-off at our hotel were right on time. They walked us through the payment process with patience and expertise. I highly recommend them!

Excellent service
We travelled in two family groups to Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru. The booking process had been handled very professionally, with very quick response times. Our two drivers/guides, Charles and George, could not have done more to make our safari trip as complete and memorable as possible. Using their expertise, we were fortunate to see the "Big 5" twice over, and cant think of a single animal we missed. Their expertise also extended to birdlife - something several of us were particularly interested in - and between us we accumulated a bird list of over 100 species covering a wide range of habitats. The accommodation in tented camps was comfortable and clean (very much needed after long days in the vehicles), and although we were very close up to nature, the security provided at each camp was completely reassuring. All in all we had a fantastic safari experience.

Fun
I am a youtuber from Cameroon, I visited Tanzania for holidays and Godlisten made our stay memorable. I laughed the entire trip and I left feeling like I was born in Arusha 🤣🤣. We visited the Hotsprings of Chemka, the Museum and had Streetsfood. I made videos of our trip on my youtube channel (channel name: Victorine Bih Takwe under my Tanzania Playlist 🙂). Highly recommend 👌

Alex was a spectacular guide & driver, offering both an amazing experience & genuine conversation!
We were a group of four with 2 adventurous kids (7&9) and we toured Masai Mara and Lake Nakura with Alex as our driver. The experience was fantastic- he picked us up at our hotel in Nairobi and took care of everything. He knew where to go to find every animal we were excited to see and also shared a lot of really great info about animals, plants and all sorts of things. I especially was excited to see different birds, and so he spotted a ton of them for me and accommodated me taking photos of them. The kids also had a blast and really enjoyed the adventure driving and pop top Land Cruiser. The Sopa lodges in both places were great, with Lake Nakura slightly better than Masai Mara in terms of facilities (and view!), but both super in service. If you come with kids who are picky eaters, I would bring extra snacks for the days out in the reserves/parks.
All in all, we had a terrific time with Axis - easy planning and payment and really flexible. If I had it to do again, I would add an extra day to spend more time in Lake Nakura to enjoy the lodge.
I highly recommend both Axis and Alex!

Amazing experience ever
This was the best safari ever, our guide Moses was incredible. The communication from the moment the picked us up in Nairobi was excellent.
All the plan was really organized we didn’t have a complain at all.
Moses gave us all the complete information during the safari.
The money you pay is really worth it for all the experience you get with them, I recommend this company 100%.
Note: if you didn’t have Moses you will never experience the real meaning of safari adventure
