Xavier is on top of his game!
I’m a regular client of Solo Safaris and for the the three years I’ve reached out to them to plan my out of town trips, I’ve never been disappointed. Xavier is always hands on and quick in responses. I highly recommend planning your vacations with him.

Unforgettable experience
The organization of our trip was excellent.
From the pick-up to the drop off at the airport, everything was unforgettable.
The activities, the restaurants for lunch on the beach, the car were on top.
But the best were our guide Khamis and our driver. They are friendly, ponctuel and very professional. I thank them warmly

the trip was eventful and amazing
Well-organized transportation (cars, buses). Delicious food outside the hotels (during the volcano and salt lakes visit).
In tribes and small villages, children rejoice over the simplest things: candy, pens, hair ties. I imagine they'd be delighted with coloring books and pencils.
Special thanks for solving a non-standard and difficult issue very quickly.

Rhino is the best
Rhino is a really good guide. He found the best spots so that we saw a lot animals. In two days we saw the 'big nine' and more. Often we were one of the first at the spots. We always felt safe. Moreover he is a good driver and always in a good mood. We can highly recommend this safari.

Excellent service
My trip to Ngorongoro and Serengeti was amazing. Communication before the tour was clear and professional, and the service throughout the trip was excellent. Our guide was knowledgeable and reliable. We saw incredible wildlife and beautiful landscapes. Everything was well organized and great value for money. A truly unforgettable safari experience.

Great job with the hike and coffee tour.
My trip to the Materuni Waterfalls & Coffee Tour was amazing! Daniel and the rest of the team did such a great job of handling everything. Getting to do the hike too and from the waterfall and having lunch afterwards was such a great experience! Would recommend 10/10.

Lovely custom safari
Keny Bush Expeditions did us a great service by allowing us to dial up the safari we wanted and make it work for us. We spent 2 days in Amboseli and 1 day in Tsavo East to see the red elephants. Just marvelous! And our driver was a joy to spend the 4 days with. They even dropped us off in Diani when the safari was finished. It was truly an unforgettable experience.

You are in good hands with Josana
We used them to book a "joining" safari and they hooked us up with a driver (Mark) and a group of lovely people from all over the globe. So my our only contact with Joseph was at the beginning but we could tell we were in good hands because he was a lovely person and the driver that connected us with our safari crew was super courteous. Good people know good people. It was a marvelous adventure and I would return to use Josana in a heartbeat.

BEAUTIFUL
VERY VERY VERY GOOD. ALL WAS VERY WELL
David, our driver, taught us so much. Just a little sad not to have seen a lion up close. We visited Amboseli and Tsavo East.
Thousands thanks for all

Good but just visit the Masai Mara
Overall the tour was good.
Email contact was very quick until it came to confirming they had received by deposit. It took 2 weeks and countless emails on my end to get confirmation that my trip was going ahead. I paid the deposit from a US bank account in USD (as requested) and there was a transaction feed that I had to cover upon arrival.
I requested a lift from the airport and my driver was an hour late. I would recommend booking an uber (~£5 opposed to $15)
The day at the Masai Mara was incredible, the wildlife unmatched. Make sure you carefully check you are happy with your itinerary (although it will change) as most days involve 6+ hrs of travel with only 2 hrs of game viewing. I was a solo traveler and everyone I met was very welcoming and from a variety of age ranges and backgrounds. Because I was by myself and the tours vary in days (some are 3, 6 and 7), I was continuously swapped between cars and companies. It was quite exhausting continuously meeting new people just for one day.
The food was good. Every day it is rice, lentils and chicken.
When back in Nairobi there was a clear hierarchy of guest that had to be dropped off in a specific order. Despite our first guest drop off at 12:30, I was dropped off at 3:45.
I would recommend just visiting the Masai Mara as the rest of the week is basically just driving to a new location to spend a few hrs and then going to your hotel.
