Excellent service provided! Completely taken care of, from A to Z
We were collected from out accommodation in Riverside by our driver Erick, who was already waiting for us, greeting us with a great smile and enthusiasm. We are a family of 4 (2 teenagers) and booked a private safari.
We drove to the main entrance of the national park which went smooth and effortless. A spotter joined us at that point too. When the rooftop came off, the adventure started! And what a start! First animals we spotted were a lion and lioness pair! We continued the game drive for nearly 3 hours and spotted many mammals and birds. Erick had a great eye for details and was very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna. He also arranged for our lunch and took us to a picnic spot in the park; it was scary and exciting at once. I jokingly said to my boys that a leopard could jump us at any moment!
We continued the game drive and spotted another lion pair (our luck!) and a group of hippopotamus in a pond as well. At the end we were tired and exhausted from all the excitement, but our guide made sure we were comfortable all the way. 10 out of 10 would recommend to others. We saw more in 1 day than most see in 3 days!

Amazing 3 day safari in march
Our guide Ellie was very experienced and taught us a lot about the parks and wildlife. The fig tree lodge was cozy and the food was excellent. Recommend booking with Ellie as your guide.

Amazing Quality and Great Value Tour
Our trip started in Mombassa on January 5, 2026 and ended January 16, 2016 in Nairobi. This was our second trip with Crimson Brooke Safaris. Our first safari followed a lengthy portion of the Crystal Serenity World Cruise while our recent safari followed a forty day trip from Barcelona to Mombassa on Crystal Symphony. We are discriminating travelers who want a private experience, individually designed, where we have every wish and need catered to. Amos and Betty are the owners of Crimson Brooke Safaris. They are both extremely intelligent and caring. We felt like family. They go beyond the extra mile. They listen to you and that matters more than anything else. They find the best hotels, the perfect room and the most unique experiences. Hotels and meals were excellent and our guides were knowledgeable and flexible. Everything in our itinerary was meticulously planned, yet there was always time for extra shopping, art galleries, etc. We had Reuben as our guide in Kenya for the second time and he was the best guide we have ever had. He's like a professor of zoology. Anytime I needed Amos or Betty for anything, I called and they responded. You are not getting a cookie cutter high level experience with Crimson Brooke Safaris. You a getting a personalized private experience with outstanding value. I would be happy to respond to personal requests for additional information from a fellow traveler.

Fabulous!
I’ve been on six safaris with Landmark Expeditions over the last 13 years, have brought both family and friends, and every trip has been unforgettable! Our guide Steve is outstanding — incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and an expert at finding wildlife. From seeing and photographing the Big Five to the many adventures that make Kenya so magical, Landmark consistently delivers an exceptional, seamless experience. The accommodations are top notch, everyone is warm and welcoming, I always feel safe and well cared for! I wouldn’t go with anyone else for a Kenyan safari, I’m planning my next trip for this summer now!

Excellent experience from start to finish
Our 6 day private safari with Mateo Travel and Adventure was an excellent experience right from the start. Patrick promptly responded to our initial request for information with a range of accommodations for each of the parks we wanted to visit. He answered all our questions quickly and we picked the combination that suited our budget. Once we confirmed the final proposal, everything went smoothly, from our initial pickup, the train ride to the first park, and meeting our guide.
Eric, our guide, was outstanding! He has great knowledge about the animals and his ability to spot them in the distance was amazing. He was also a very good and careful driver, both in the parks and on the highway back to Nairobi on our last day. Always good natured, calm and polite. We enjoyed chatting with him and learned so much not only about the parks but also about Kenya in general.
We appreciate how professional and organized Mateo Adventures is and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Thank you Eric and Patrick!
Macdonald was extremely friendly, patient and knowledgeable.
We had a wonderful Winelands tour with Macdona with Knap tours. We were picked up on time and enjoyed our drive to the Stellenbosch area. We visited 3 wineries and had delicious tastings at each. Macdonald also brought us to a restaurant in the town of Stellenbosch, The Wine Glass, and we had a wonderful conversation with Macdonald at lunch. The wineries visited were wonderful. The last one also had olive oils to sample. The Vineyards were top tier and we enoyed the beautiful scenery during the drive.
We also used Knap tours to pick us up at the airport and bring us to our hotel when we arrived in Cape Town. Macdonald greeted us after we exoted baggage cllaim with our name on a sign,.no waiting! We highly this awesime service. We already have booked our airport drop offs with them as well.
