Aloyce was Amazing in helping us have the most enjoyable adventure of a lifetime!!
Let’s see where to begin. This was a trip of a lifetime.And I am so glad I booked with Amshar. We had the pleasure with meeting to of your amazing drivers. The first one Obieday( I hope I’m spelling that right) met us at the airport to pick us up and take us to our hotel. And the next day he met us to take us on a tour of Arusha. He showed us all of wonders of Arusha and the history of the beautiful city. Then the next day our driver Aloyce met us to start our safari journey. We went to Tarangerie National park, where he told us all about the different species that was there and made sure to spot out all of the amazing animals that we could find. It was breathtaking. After a long day, he took us to our first stay at Njia Panda tented lodge where the locals made us feel so welcomed ( it was so comforting being so far from home). Such a beautiful place. The next day onto the Serengeti ( this is my husband #1 place of all time and the reason for this trip). Aloyce was Absolutely Amazing in making sure he could spot and find all of my husbands must see favorite animals. We saw cheetahs, lions, wildebeest, impalas, giseles , zebras, giraffes, elephants and much much more. It was Beautiful. We have saved for this trip for years and booked it a year in advance and it was everything we dreamed of and more. And that is only because of our driver who made it all possible to make sure we saw everything we could. The next day was our balloon adventure, Aloyce made sure we got in touch with them so we knew where to go in the morning for that. After that he met us for a continuation of our safari journey. We then traveled to the Ngorongoro crater where we found out that Rinos where up at the side of the road, a great find for us to get some really great pictures and rare I might add. Aloyce was amazing this whole trip and made it such a Wonderful experience for us first timers to really experience Africa and all its Amazing Beauty. Amshar, thank you so very much for helping me with the designing of the perfect trip for my husband, and for answering all of my questions ( for a first time international travelers). The places you picked for accommodations ( Arusha Summit Lodge, Njia Panda tented lodge, Tuckanoe tented lodge, Eileen’s trees inn) were all so beautiful, warm and welcoming. This entire experience was so Amazing because of all of you. I hope to come again and experience more of what Africa has to offer and I will definitely be in contact with you!!

A Seamless, Spectacular Safari That Surpassed Every Expectation
We are a group of seven ladies who recently completed a tour with Beacon Safari, travelling through the Great Mara, the Mara River, the Mara Triangle overlooking the Serengeti, and onward to Lake Naivasha for a boat and walking safari. From start to finish, this trip surpassed every expectation in every possible way.
Our guide, Alex, was exceptional throughout. He was consistently informative, polite, and attentive, ensuring every detail of our experience was thoughtfully managed. His deep knowledge of the region meant he always knew the best times and the best places to take us, giving us the flexibility to see all the wildlife we hoped for — lions, elephants, rhino, giraffe, zebra, hippo, buffalo, cheetah, and a beautiful variety of antelope, all up close. These unforgettable moments were possible because Alex understands the land and its rhythms with remarkable skill.
The truck was extremely comfortable, making long days in the bush enjoyable and relaxed. The accommodation arranged by Beacon Safari was equally impressive: Sopa Lodge Masai Mara and Sopa Lodge Lake Nakuru were excellent, offering comfort, great service, and stunning views that added so much to the overall experience.
Beacon Safari’s communication was outstanding from beginning to end. Every question was answered promptly, every request handled with care, and every detail organised flawlessly. The company’s attention to detail was evident in every part of the journey — from logistics, to timing, to ensuring we were always comfortable, safe, and well looked after.
Alex himself kept the truck spotlessly clean, took immense pride in his work, and brought warmth and humour to each day. His professionalism, kindness, and patience made us feel completely supported throughout the trip. It is rare to encounter someone who blends expertise and genuine care so seamlessly.
Beacon Safari delivered a safari that was not only memorable, but truly exceptional. The combination of superb guiding, comfortable transport, excellent lodges, flexible planning, and meticulous attention to detail created an experience we will treasure for a lifetime.
We cannot praise Beacon Safari — and especially Alex — highly enough.

Wonderful Experience
As a first time traveler in Africa, everything was perfect from email response, timely pick ups on safari and prompt replies on any question I asked while on safari. Thank you and I really enjoyed my six days safari.

Knowledgeable, courteous, flexible
An exceptionable experience that i will remember forever.. Our guide Stamford was friendly, informative, and added so much to the tour. He easily handled all the complexities including crossing country borders and made them no problem. Each day got better. Often overlooked are the wonderful drivers who can spot animals and pot holes at the same time get us to the first, and avoid the latter. Comfortable lodging, exceptional food and friendly co=participants. and of course Animals, animals animals. Well worth every penny.

Two unforgettable days and a new friend!
We had two wonderful, unforgettable, and exciting days last October with our driver Ally.
We visited Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. The two parks have different nature and slightly different wildlife, it is recommended to visit both! They are incredibly beautiful!
The jeep was very comfortable and the food fantastically delicious.
Ally was very attentive and kind to us throughout. He always gave us enough time to absorb the scenery and provided us with a lot of information, both about the animals, the parks, and even the villages we saw on the way there. We felt completely safe with him during the entire trip.
We have been in touch since then, so we have not only gained these lifelong experiences, but also a friend along the way.
I highly recommend Ally and the whole team, we could not have chosen better

Good for all, organized the plan pretty well
Good tourist company. The guides Robert is very good
Competent, reliable, clear communication
The safari experience was beyond anything I could have dreamed of. Witnessing these incredible animals in their natural habitat truly broadened my understanding of the diversity of life in the wild.
Our communication with safari operator Dominic was clear and thorough. Our safari guide Mr. James is very familiar with the geography of the parks and the living habits of the animals. We are able to see the Big fives 🐘🦏🦁🐆🐃 and other rare creatures during our 7 days journey. James’s incredible driving skills and made every moment possible.
We had a really great time with Kentau Safari this time. Thank you again! Tunaipenda Kenya! Asante sana! 🩵✨🇰🇪

Really good tour operator
We did an experience of 6 days with them and also 2 days on a tour of the city, and they were super available for everything.
The only things that made me put 4 stars is about the organization, sometimes they could’ve been more precise and tell about some changes during the safari…also when something goes wrong they can be more ready to give other options.
Anyways our guide was super cool and prepared to give us the best experience, he was also extremely respectful of the animals.
I would recommend this agency!

Francis was really kind, professional and really willing to help, thank you so much.
Our 6-day safari was an awesome experience! We were lucky to see many animals, including all of the Big 5 thanks to Francis. He was an informative guide and was very attentive to our needs.
The accommodations and food were great, and daily activities were communicated so well. The entire experience was so much fun, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for an adventure.
