Great safari, great company, great staff!!!
Had the pleasure of booking with Spirit of Kenya in October, 2024. I cannot recommend them more highly. From Misk in the office to Samuel our personal guide everything was perfect. Misk answered any and all questions before, during and after our safari. He was a pleasure to deal with and always replied quickly. Our guide, Samuel, was truly amazing!! His knowledge base was incredible, and his patience unending, as we asked many questions from flora/fauna to culture, religion and politics. We had so much fun with him. One could tell he truly enjoys his job, as he seemed as excited as we were with all the sightings. This was my 4th safari (hopefully not my last), and first private one - and this ranks at the top. No one could go wrong booking with Spirit of Kenya!

Good
Had a good safari with this company. Went to Ngorongoro and Tarangire during the two days.
Driver was friendly and did tirelessly drive the car the full day while talking about the parks and animals. He was able to answer all questions to satisfaction.
The tour started from Arusha and for 5$ extra the driver picked me up and later returned me to my hotel.
In overall I had a good experience and wouldn't mind doing it again. Be aware that you will spend about 9 hours per day sitting or standing in the car while it drives through the park or to and from the park.

Exceptional Service with Denash Tours and Travel
We have just returned from the most incredible wildlife safari in Kenya, organized by Denash Tours and Travel, On the day of the trip, everything went off without a hitch. The transportation was punctual. John our tour guide and he was knowledgeable, friendly, and very engaging. The itinerary was well planned, giving us the perfect mix of guided tours and free time to explore on our own. Thousands of zebras, and gazelles crossing the Mara River, while predators like lions and crocodiles waited, was something we had only seen on nature documentaries except now, we were in the middle of it. Our guide Jhon timed our drives perfectly, ensuring we were in the right place at the right time to see the action. This Kenyan wildlife safari exceeded all our expectations and was truly the trip of a lifetime.

Jackson the greatest
We had the absolute pleasure of experiencing a safari in the Serengeti with Jackson as our guide, and it was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we began our journey, Jackson’s professionalism, knowledge, and passion for the wildlife and landscapes of Tanzania shone through.
His ability to spot animals from seemingly impossible distances was remarkable, and he always made sure we were in the perfect position to enjoy breathtaking views and take unforgettable photos. We saw lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, and even a rare sighting of a leopard thanks to his expertise and patience.
Beyond his guiding skills, Jackson was personable, kind, and full of fascinating stories about the Serengeti and its ecosystem. He ensured we were comfortable throughout the safari, providing snacks, cold drinks, and a wealth of information about the animals and their behaviors.
This wasn’t just a tour; it was an adventure of a lifetime, and Jackson played a huge role in making it so special. If you’re planning a safari in the Serengeti, we can’t recommend Jackson highly enough. He is truly a master of his craft and will make your trip unforgettable!

Outstanding Performance
It was a perfect journey experience for me and my family!
Started from Nairobi visiting Kenya and crossing the border Masai Mara to Serengeti, Manyara lake and Tarangire all the way to Mount Kilimanjaro for a day hike. Finally ending in Zanzibar to rest and relax!
I think there is only a few agencies that do that, with the advantage of personalizing itinerary and wishes.
I strongly recommend Kitawa!

A well organized Safari experience!
Our tour operator was very thorough, responsive and flexible in the planning phase of the trip. Once we arrived in Nairobi, we were promptly introduced to David, our safari guide for the 7 day road trip. We started from Nairobi, drove to Amboseli (2 nights, heavenly!!), on to Lake Naivasha (1 night, bird haven!!) , followed by Lake Nakuru (1 night, rhino sighting!) and culminated the trip at the Masai Mara (2 nights). Amboseli included a night safari.. David was punctual, kind, reliable and informative throughout the trip. It was worth the money spent! We would start each day early for the game drive and hit all the experiences we were promised. The roads can get bumpy and dusty in some stretches.
Kenya is a paradise on earth. Absolutely beautiful country with not just natural bounty and wild life but also extremely kind and polite people. It was an unforgettable experience for us.

A dream come true!
Earlier this month we travelled to Kenya to fulfil our dream of going on safari and we were not disappointed. Paul from Africa Starpal Tours & Safaris was very friendly and helpful in managing to satisfy all our wishes, creating a personalized package for a dream holiday. We managed to visit all the big reserves namely Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli National Park, Tsavo East National Park, Samburu National Reserve, Ol Pejeta Conservancy and of course Nairobi National Park. The scenery was fabulous and we saw a lot of animals. Our guides Morris (Eagle Eye - best guide ever) and Kizito, were incredibly knowledgeable and professional. It was an amazing trip and a wonderful time we spent together, travelling in this wonderful country called Kenya. We recommend Kenya and Africa Starpal Tours & Safaris for a dream holiday!

safari tour review
I recently went on a safari tour, and it was an unforgettable experience! Our guide Charles went above and beyond to ensure we saw the most breathtaking views and wildlife. From the moment we started, it was clear that he was not only knowledgeable but also passionate about what he does.
He tracked animals with incredible precision and always positioned us perfectly to get the best vantage points for photos and close encounters. His enthusiasm was contagious, and his stories about the local flora and fauna added so much depth to the journey.
Even when the wildlife seemed elusive, he never gave up, often taking us on unexpected detours to find the hidden gems of the park. It felt like he genuinely cared about making our experience as memorable as possible.
I can’t recommend this safari enough, especially with such a dedicated guide. If you’re looking for a trip that’s both adventurous and awe-inspiring, this is it!

Excellent
With Stephen we booked a 6-day Safari everything went very well, we really appreciated the guide / driver who accompanied us Shunda Ally, we recommend him, excellent connoisseur of the tracks of the parks we have been to and very good at spotting the "big five" animals and many more, very cozy and comfortable lodges we stayed in so the food was also very good.
