Hi. We booked a safari to the Masai Mara with Lewis , who arranged everything. The transfers from Mombasa went without a hitch and we had wonderful accomodation and an excellent guide. Fredrick was able to find all of the ’Big Five’ as well as seven cheetah. He deserves a medal! I recommend Unscripted Safaris if you want to have a top class safari. They provide an excellent service. Can’t wait to go with them again soon!

An Unbelievable Experience!
5/5

Julia from Altezza planned an amazing safari for me and my dad this summer. It was a wonderful vacation! Our guide, Tom, was extremely friendly, intelligent, multi-lingual, and professional. We were able to see the big five and everything was planned/executed perfectly. If you want to experience an amazing African safari, Altezza Travel is the way to go! My experience with this company was extremely impressive.

"Better than expected"
5/5

We planned our tour to see Gorillas in Uganda and Doreen was so helpful. It was 3 days trip but we really enjoyed. What really surprised us more was guide Nelson .He was the best guide we have ever met on any tour across the world.

He was very knowledgeable and so friendly.some of the activities we did weren't even on our package list.
We would really recommend that you plan all your Ugandan trips with Hail tours Uganda.
Thank you Doreen and Nelson for making our tour much memorable.

Just perfect from the first to the last step.
5/5

This was my very first direct booking in Kenia just per Mail/Whatsapp and I never regretted it. Just can recommend James, who was very patient and fair within these COVID-Days with postponing, replaning and rebooking. He always had good ideas and kept contact all the way long.

Simon was a very profound guide in Masai Mara - Thank you. His knowledge and driving skills were amazing. Communication was always perfect and friendly.

Btw, Saunterland was not the cheapest offer but we always felt safe and secure and we respect the service.

5*-Rating!

Outstanding
5/5

I originally booked through a different safari company but as a solo traveler, I guess they didn't want to provide the service so it appears they kind of "sold me off" to Baboon Budget Safaris. I'm so glad they did!

My driver was Anthony and we had another solo traveler like me on the safari. Anthony is a great driver, super knowledgeable, funny and was constantly making sure we were doing okay. We stayed at Miti Mingi Eco Camp. I was pleasantly surprised. The food is good, owner was friendly, bed was comfortable, pillows were nice, shower was hot, electricity worked fine, etc. He even let me borrow a towel because I forgot mine.

Both days with game drives were beyond words. We saw gazelles, giraffes, cheetahs, leopard, water buffalo, elephants, jackos, hyenas, elends, wildebeasts, warthogs, etc. But the true highlight came after Anthony worked his magic and we found a pride of lions. Shortly after we arrived, they made an attempt to kill a huge water buffalo! The hunt was unsuccessful but it was still a site I will never forget. We had a nice picnic in the Maasai Mara National Reserve. Anthony knows everything about what we saw; the animals, plants, birds, etc. He could answer all our questions.

On the last day, we had a nice visit at a Maasai village. Also, such a wonderful experience.

I will return to Kenya again. This was my second time here already but it was my first safari experience. I want to come back again with my family. When I do, I will not even consider booking with another company. I will book with Baboon Budget Safaris and I will request that Anthony be our guide. I highly recommend this company who wants to have amazing memories of their time in the Maasai Mara.

It was great!
5/5

Well being my first time with Safari update travels, I appreciate the way you communicate with clients, you gave us an ample time to clear the balances, you waited for us to arrive on the dday, no pressure, no frequent calls, no client was left.
I appreciate the fact that we could carry anything, in terms of snacks,
Plus the drivers were really good your guides, I mean I learnt a lot from our driver, he was very very good, he made sure we had a chance of seeing every animal that was in sight.
Thank you guys, I would recommend you anyday anytime looking forward to many others, thank you

Safari Update Travels led by Silas was able to communicate with us in a more professional manner.
5/5

I would like to say my trip to samburu was value for money.I loved each and every experience that came by.From viewing the big 5 in samburu reserves to the swimming in Buffalo Springs was just an awesome adventure. Communication from Safari Update Travels tour guide Mr.Silas was preffesional and everything went according to the service he promised to deliver. I enjoyed my trip with them and definitely I must do a repeat with Safari Update Travels.

Thanks to Martin and Fida for a wonderful 6 day safari in Masai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli and Taita !
5/5

This was my second safari in my life. On the first safari, my wife and I were in Tanzania (Serengeti and Ngorongoro) in January of this year, and we have something to compare with. The safari with Martin and Fide was much more interesting.

We traveled with friends (2 couples) and these two wonderful guides and met a huge number of animals in Africa. Changing driving during the day, Martin and Fide provided us with 10-11 hours of safari per day instead of the promised 8. They are excellent drivers and very keen observers, not a single animal could hide from their eyes.

We highly recommend this company for traveling in Africa. And yet - the prices for private safaris with Martin and Fide will pleasantly surprise you, despite the fact that the guys provided us with luxury accommodation and meals.

Best ever experience by Martin
5/5

We have just finished Our 7 days the best with safari with Martin and earthwings. We really enjoyed his services as a guide from samburu through Masai Mara. Very perfect and super in spotting wildlife and very informative with fact's information about animals. On prices of the Safari it's very affordable and pocket friendly with super luxury services.
If you are looking for Kenyan experience book with him he is the best.
