Decent budget operator, out of the world game drive experience
The experience of booking with Charity was excellent with superb support and coordination for customisation to our needs, online payment and documentation. There was a slight error on pricing which she honestly admitted. During the actual tour, the office seemed very deserted, and we didn't have adequate facilities to freshen up as we reached it from airport. Though we had booked midrange tour, we were packed with a bunch of budget traveler, so every time they driver had to pick up and drop from different hotels. On one of the nights in Amboseli, we were told the place was overbooked and were put up in an absolutely pathetic dormitory which was unacceptable and no refund was given. The Kenya experience itself was wonderful and the driver was brilliant during the game rides. The group of co-travellers were nice company. The quality of hotels was great in Mara and Naivasha, but average in Nakuru and pathetic in Amboseli for one night. The next night was good as the tented accommodation was nice. The food was great at Mara and Naivasha. We had some local delicacies at Nakuru. Amboseli was average and crowded. Overall, an average operator that promised more than it delivered. The Kenya national park and game drive experience in all the destinations compensated for everything else so to speak.

Very easy to work with.
Very easy to communicate with. Fast responses and quick to trouble shoot any issues. Great visuals on website and app for a clear description of the itinerary. Over all the trip ran very smoothly and lived up to expectations. Excellent value for money. The only downside is that most of the accomodation was booked a bit far from the national parks/ game reserves. Would have been better to be given an option between cheaper accoms vs convenience of location. I am more inclined to pay more and stay closer. However this was only an issue in Namibia with long driving distances and petrol stations being 30-60 mins away. All accomodations were otherwise great places to stay!

Good budget safari with Dickson, a great guide
The experience was made memorable by our guide Dickson. He made sure we saw all the animals (missed just the elusive leopard but not for lack of trying) and patiently moved the car around so everyone could get a chance to see the animals and take a good shot. Dickson was knowledgeable about the species we saw and easily answered all our questions. He was patient with our group and requests. If I came again, I would ask for Dickson.
In terms of accommodations and food, upgrade if you can. The camps are fine but it is a lot like camping. If you don’t like camping, you won’t like the camps. Food was the same every day and…okay. A little more care here would make it be 5 stars.

Trustworthy, committed and reliable tour operator
We've climbed in October 2024 with Zanzi trekking and safari's in Arusha. The crew is very committed to get you to the top. Everything is in done in order so that you'll make it, that made us a bit emotional at the end of the trip as well (in a positive way). The guides George and Lazaro are experienced guides, who behave professionally. We would easily trust our lives to them again.
Don't forget to ask/request a packing list beforehand, if they haven't sent it to you yet when you booked a trekking.

Meijo is a trustworthy safari travel agency, safe and reliable
After multiple comparisons and choices, we finally chose Meijo as our safari travel agency;
The main considerations are as follows:
1. During the communication process, Daudi was very nice and patient and gave us a lot of suggestions
2. Their company attaches great importance to safety, and the car and room were well maintained during our tour
3. The guide's eyesight is really good and can see animals from a long distance
4. It can be fully and reliably implemented according to the plan, and our hotel and service are very accurate
I look forward to Meijo becoming bigger and stronger, and I hope that I can return to Africa to travel in the near future~

Good operator for first time experience!
We chose Kenya Bush Expeditions because the tours offered on SafariBookings fitted best to our holiday plans.
As we never did a Safari before we wanted to make sure to get a good all-in-one package.
This is exactly what we got!
From pick up in Nairobi to drop off at our desired place everything was organised.
We spent a lot of time in parks to discover landscape and animals.
Of course you need to be lucky to spot every animal you want to see (Big Five: check!), but our guide was a big plus in this. Even without seeing animals for a few hours we enjoyed the landscape a lot so no day felt wasted.
Communication with Kenya Bush Expeditions and our guide Peter was perfect. Days were planned good so it was a good mixture between relaxing and adventure.
For our taste there could have been a bit more flexibility regarding the daily schedule. Sometimes we had to leave the spot because of timing issues although we could have enjoyed the situation/scenery for a bit longer.
Overall we recommend Kenya Bush Expeditions to anyone who wants to experience their first safari.
Thanks to Peter who was patient, put a lot of effort in spotting animals and for driving us safely throughout the whole tour!

Great Tour
15 Days Best of Kenya & Tanzania Safari
This was a wonderful trip with sighting of so many animals that we were continually amazed at the variety. This safari allowed us to get very close to the animals which was very special. I will treasure the viewing of so many lions that we saw on nearly every day of the safari.
The three main guides we had all incredibly knowable on all the wildlife and fauna. This enabled us to enjoy the spectacle of this tour even more. Having the guides assist us with the border crossing was a big help.
The accommodation was of a great standard. Even the tents we stayed in were very comfortable with all amenities. The camp staff who provided escorts back to our tent added a level of added safety. The only exception was the hotel in Nairobi which had a mattress that resembled a hammock
Food at all the camps and hotels was both plentiful and varied. The offerings were mainly buffets with only the camp in Masai Mara offering a choice at mealtimes.
The only disappointment in the whole trip was missing the great migration due to abnormal weather conditions.
Communication with Kenya Tanzania Safaris was at times a little patchy and could be improved.
