Happy Kenya Trip
I travelled with my 5 friends to Kenya last year in July .I have every reasons to go back again.Ephrahim is extremely trustworthy and responsible person with good knowledge of the places and he was our guide and driver all through. Everything was meticulously arranged in an organized manner. Accommodation,food was worth to the money paid.I am really looking forward to have yet another tour with him..

Review about Masai Mara National Reserve by James Neils
We saw the famed Big Six of Africa, but also, a family of ducks, a hippo alone in a water hole, a leopard trotting across grassland, the famed Mara River with its crocs and hippos and the landscape takes your breath away. We didn't expect to be fascinated by the variety of birds, by they proved to be an unexpected highlight

Review about Lake Nakuru National Park by James Neils
Being able to "feed" an eagle. Guide whistled and tossed a fish in the lake which the eagle swooped down and grabbed. We have a movie of it. To walk among Zebras and a mother and baby giraffe up close was special.
We went there to see the hippos, which we did, but the other opportunities made this a special day.

A unique experience with the wild
It started with the beautiful weather sunshine during the day with a light breeze around 20 deg celcius.. cold in the night but it was ok in the tent and enjoyed the campfire in the common areas at the camp.
The masai mara safari in a 4x4 Land Cruiser and stay in a camp in this beautiful natural reserve is not to be missed..we stayed for 2 nights in Ashnil Mara camp; overall the service was nice, pleasant staff and food was good .. we really enjoyed the game drives and the whole experience in the wild with our tour guide Martin from Earthwings Tours and Safaris.
We didn’t have much time to explore Nairobi but we enjoyed our tree house stay in Ngong and Talisman restaurant is not to be missed for its decoration, ambiance, food, service; enjoyed a super delightful lunch and the art exhibition across the restaurant..
we definitely recommend the trip to Kenya!

Great Driver & Lovely Animals
Kenya has been wonderful to us. Tsavo East has so many elephants and we had the luck to go there in January so many baby elephants roaming around.
Even got to see a hypo and cheetas, which are quite rare

Awesome, breathtaking, unbelievable is how my wife and I describe our trip.
Kenya offers a diversity of culture, environments, and a snapshot of a country experiencing the impact of climate change at the same time tremendous growth and an expansion. In Nairobi, a city of more almost 5 million, there are tall buildings going up everywhere. We never realized the elevation of much of Kenya, at least where we traveled, is above 5,000 feet or that a typical day is 12 hours of sunlight and night. Traveling back and forth across while in Ol Pajeta Conservancy the equator was an unexpected treat.
Flying between the major parks is much quicker than the long drives, but doing so misses the rural areas, massive farm lands, and the towns at major intersections where locals sell almost everything along the roadways, including the freshest of fruit and vegetables. Going by car, you share the road with a variety of transportation from trucks, large buses, crowded vans that travel between somewhere and somewhere else, donkey carts and small motorcycles that carry people and their lives. We saw two men on a motorcycle and between them an auto transmission and one guy had a washer/dryer balanced behind him.
We stopped at Thompson Waterfall for a stunning view of the power of water in an area surrounded by arid landscape. The conservancies and reserves are different in topography and landscape but they overpower the visitor by how far one can see. On two nights while in Masai Mara we had thunderstorms and the lightening provided an momentary stunning view of the landscape.
The people we met; hotel employees, clerks in stores, local vendors along the roadways, the staff in the lodges were friendly, wanted to know where we traveled from and happy we were visiting Kenya.
We had an amazing trip, a wonderful time in Kenya thanks to Safaribookings,com and our selected tour company, Amazing Memories Safaris. We have over 2,700 hundred pictures to remind us of our visit.

Excellent 36 hour adventure
Goodluck could not have done more to help us experience all there was to witness - he really made sure it was the most incredibly special short safari - there was a cheetah, a lion kill with cubs and a mourning elephant - honestly it was magical.
