Visit Samburu to experience authentic East Africa.
Exceptionally beautiful scenery, people, and wildlife encounters. We stayed at Samburu Lodge, staffed by friendly Kenyans and many local Samburu people. The rooms, lodge, and food were all outstanding without being pretentious. We felt like we were in a place that had not yet been discovered. We will definitely return. I would recommend staying for 3 nights, and consider flying in our out. The drive from Nairobi is a long one, but worth a one-way trip as you will see many interesting people and landscapes along the way. Next time we would probably fly directly to Masai Mara from the Samburu airstrip instead of driving.

Wonderful holidays in Kenya for 2 consecutive years
In 2011 and 2012 we visited one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Both years Waymark organized these trips for us in a perfect way. In 2011 we visited Shaba/Buffalo Springs/Samburu, Sweetwater, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara. To end our holidays we then transferred to Mombasa White Sands. Once there, we decided we missed the game drives too much and with just one phonecall we arranged for an extra 2-day safari in Tsavo East ad West.
In 2012 we started our trip in the East of Kenya at the shores of Lake Victoria. Waymark had arranged for the best place to stay at Kiboko Bay Hotel. At the Impala Center we were able to get pictures with a cheetah, quite unique ! From there again a short visit to Lake Nakuru, followed by a long stay in Maasai Mara. This time we ended our trip in Nairobi with a.o. visits to the Giraffe Center and David Sheldrick.
It would take too long to mention all the highlights during both these years, but what you can expect when booking your safari with Waymark is a unique eperience: 1) Excellent hotels/lodges; during our stays we have visited all Sarova hotels and though different in appearance, all provide excellent services 2) Very experienced drivers with outstanding knowledge of the local flora and fauna, who will put you in positions to make really unique pictures during your holidays; we have 2 very large photo's on our wall that constantly remind us of our wonderful times in Kenya, one of 6 (!) cheetahs and one of a male giraffe bonding with his newborn son. these are just a few examples of the unique pictures we were able to take ! And in 2012, we specifically asked for (and got !) the same driver as in 2011, Apollo. Both years felt like a warm bath, he looked after us "like a father does after his children". 3) Whatever issue or problem you encounter during you holidays, you can trust Waymark to solve, nothing's too much or too complicated. Perhaps the best way to make clear what they can do for you while in Kenya, is the fact that, eventhough it's been a while, we still keep in touch with both Ken and Val from Waymark and our driver Apollo. As Ken stated it in a mail: Karibu Kenya tena....this is your (2nd) home !! And they know we will be back !

Scenic
My first time to visit Lake Nakuru National Park was in 2012. It is rich in wildlife and vast scenic beauty. I didn't get to see the entire park due to time but will definitely come back so I can explore some areas like the Makalia waterfalls, which I didn't even know existed. You definitely need a good tour guide so as not to miss such spots and plenty of time on your hands. I also feel good binoculars and a great camera are a must if you want to immortalize such moments.

Amazing place with kind people
Masai Mara is magnificent place, where you can feel atmosphere like nowhere else. Masai people are hospitable with philosophy of life as example to the world. Ukunda and Diani beach is paradise of the world, one of the most beautiful place I have ever seen. All the Kenyans are kind and friendly people, tourists are always privileged. Nairobi is interesting contrasting city. Kenya is safe destination for tourists. Last but not least, Morningstar safari tours in the best tour company in Kenya!

Great Safari !
We did a 4 day tour of Mwanza to Serengeti and Ngoronogoro with Friends of Africa Family Safaris and all their suggestions were tops. They were great to deal with and there was nothing to complain about on the planning side, but most of all it was our guide, who made the trip amazing. Jeremiah knows everything about the animals and I got the sense that he truly cares about them. We saw every animal I've ever heard of, and ones I haven't. We had seen "the big 5" by the end of the first full day, thanks to his knowledge and networking abilities. Thanks, Friends of Africa Family Safaris. It's true, you pay a little more, but the trucks are brand new and the service is top-notch. Highly recommend.

Stunning experience for all of humanity
Tanzania wisely protected their lands knowing they were treasures on Earth. The sights are unforgettable. The people all very kind and hospitable. The journey of a 5-day safari allowed us to take the magnificent countryside in several different locations; Tarangire, Lake Manyara and Serengeti National Parks along with the Ngorongoro Crater Conservation area. Each was stunning! The wildlife was profound and impressive. Despite any apprehension you might have, find a way to see these places and bless your life. Jambo.
