Really great and exceptional experience
My wife and I were recommended by the Serena Mara hotel to book our 3 day safari at the Masai Mara with the Bigfoot Adventures. Since, it was our honeymoon trip, we wanted everything perfect, including the car, the guide, trips, minute details etc. We were absolutely delighted with every single thing we received.
Overall experience: We really enjoyed the entire experience. Maydaysay really made it very good for us. I am pretty sure, if we come to Kenya again, we are going to call them up again. Sam and Mary were the people whom we contacted for booking our tour. They were very humble and courteous and they really helped us make our journey memorable.

amazing experience
My husband and I have just returned from the 5 day Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha tour. This really was an incredible experience for us from start to finish.
We were picked up and dropped off directly from where we were staying in Nairobi. Accomodation was as described. I felt comfortable and safe wherever we stayed.
We managed to see lots of animals and our tour guide Ben really went above and beyond to make sure we were at the best spots to see the animals.
We really have no complaints and would recommend Segein Adventure Safari to anyone interested in exploring this part of Kenya.
Thank you so much to the staff that supported us throughout our trip. Debby and George,- you are brilliant!

Fantastic company!
Had a really good experience working with Encompass Africa. My motivation for going to Africa was to climb Kilimanjaro, which I had already booked myself. Doing a safari while I was there was an afterthought and my problem with planning the trip was having ideas about where I wanted to go, but not knowing how to piece it all together. I spent a morning calling a few different companies and was getting quite frustrated by people not taking the time to understand what I was after or asking for money before they would listen to me. Speaking to Steph was like a breath of fresh air. Not only was she so lovely to talk to, but she took the time to understand what I needed and how she could make it work. It only took a few e-mails back and forth to work out an itinerary and flights and I was blown away by Steph's knowledge and expertise. Communication leading up to our trip was excellent and every detail was thought out and looked after. Every part of the trip flowed seamlessly and it was the best holiday I have been on so far. I would definitely become a repeat customer if I am fortunate enough to be able to travel to Africa again and would not hesitate to recommend Encompass Africa.

Our guide Robert spoke very good english, we learned so much about the animals and park from him!
Very well organized, smooth transition from the airport pickup to the hotel and so on. This was a once in a lifetime trip for our family, Robert met and exceeded our expectations. The accommodations had great food, clean rooms with spectacular park views. The guide makes the experience! Robert was funny, spoke English well, and taught us so much about the animals and their behaviors.

Review about Lake Nakuru National Park by James Moran
Very few flamingos, apparently the water levels have increased over the last few seasons making it unattractive for the flamingo who have subsequently moved on.

Review about Tarangire National Park by Jim and Monica
Tarangire National Park might have great options for birders, but we found the other parks to have more wildlife, birds, and scenery to keep our attention and build our knowledge.

Review about Serengeti National Park by Jim and Monica
Serengeti National Park is great at this time of year. Without the crowds we were able to be close to the wildlife and stay a little longer to witness behaviours and activities we might otherwise have missed. The thundering wildebeest and zebra migration was a special hi-light and there was always some animal, bird, or scenery just around a turn that kept us engaged, and provided new opportunities for our personal education.
