Amazing experience, amazing service, highly professional, highly recommend
From the very beginning George was highly professional and answered any queries we had very promptly. We were met at the airport and from the start to the end of our trip were looked after so well. The guides Jacob and Chumboso were amazing, ethical and very hard working guides with so much experience. The wildlife encounters we had were beyond fantastic. The accommodation options were brilliant, great variety, and food outstanding. I have been on safari many times before but this company is one of the best. Couldn’t recommend them more.

very helpful and knowledgeable guide with friendly charisma
We booked a mokoro tour in Daunara and are completely satisfied. Everything was well organized, the journey to the departure point was adventurous and beautiful and the mokoro tour itself was very interesting. Our guide Edwin was always present and very attentive and we can highly recommend the tour with him! We would be happy to do it again anytime!

A professional safari tour operator with a decent office and spartan accommodation
Despite the four star rating of the Baboon Budget holidays, their freelance guide Titos deserves the full five.
He understands fundamental rules of customer care.
He is punctual, delivers the programme as it was outlined to a client.
He posseses a good local knowledge regarding the visited places, nature and beyond.
His English is of good standard and handles the vehicle professionally. This is something you will appreciate on the roads in Kenya.
Having a professional background in outdoor activity instructing and management I would happily employ Titos myself.
As for the overall performance of the company itself.
We had booked a six day private safari tour which has brought us to Massai Mara, Naivasha lake, Nakuru NP and Amboseli National Park.
This was a great selection of Kenyan experience and the company delivered it as presented in their quotation.
The communication prior to the tour was perfect and Dennis was in touch along the tour as well.
I have taken one star off from the best rating due to few events and suggestions.
There was a confusion at the initial briefing in their office about the type of the product booked. We were promised a private tour, however the representative seemed to have us scheduled on a group tour.
The last thing you want after tiresome journey is haggling about the basics, having children besides you.
This was rectified immediately by the owner.
Another thing which dashed our experience was my delayed luggage. I asked BBS to look after the delivery of the luggage considering it a courtesy since the delivery would be happening along the regular routes of the operator. This is based on own my experience from my former employer's customer service operating similar tours around Ireland.
I was hit by a hefty charge of about €50 at the end of our tour. I could have had the luggage delivered free of charge by the airlines instead.
One more rant about the accomodation in Nakuru hotel. The receptionist has allocated a room with a double bed and single bed to a family of four. The hotel manager fixed this for us after a complaint. The bathroom cleanliness in this place could improve.
Miti Mingi camp tents were quite tight, however I believe this could have been dealt with if we complained to the camp manager.
Then again a customer should be provided with a sufficient standard without the need of pointing out flaws and anticipating client's needs in the first place.
The Nyati safari camp was at a high level of service provided with spectacular views of Kilimanjaro.
We had a great adventure with BBS.
I would recommend and use them again.

Big Five
From the moment we contacted Serengeti Smile, we had so many questions, and they patiently answered each one. Even during our trip, we sought their advice on hotels and trustworthy websites, and they were incredibly helpful.
Our safari was truly an adventure-filled, unforgettable experience, thanks to our guide Justin and his assistant Ombeni. They made sure we spotted all the Big Five and spent quality time with our favorite animals. We took hundreds of photos, and they always positioned us for the best shots. I still can’t believe how close we were to the animals! Over our four days together, we were never bored and shared plenty of laughs.
I highly recommend requesting Justin as a guide. His experience and constant big smile made the trip even more enjoyable.
Thank you again for this amazing experience!

Fun
Eddie was so fun and can really spot the animals well! We saw 3 of the big 5 but lots of playful elephants, giraffes, wildebeest, zebras, 2 lions, a cheetah eating an impala, crocodile, hippo, warthog, impala, nyala and prob more I cant remember to name! So worth every penny!
