Wonderful experience - so many animals and a beautiful green nature.
We were really surprised how many animals we have seen - rhinos, cheetahs, leopards, lions, hippos, elephants, giraffes,...
The Nationalparks were beautiful and each one was different. The Lodges and camps were great and in the middle of nature. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming.

Excellent 3 day safari with great guide.
We did 3 day Safari, Nairobi - Amboseli - Tsavo East and then to Mombasa. Very good guide who took a lot of effort to find wildlife.
Aa lodge in Amboseli rather basic. Voi Safari Lodge in Tsavo East was much better.
There had been enough rain in both areas, but still fairly dry. Some amazing wildlife everywhere.

Kenya is a great place to have an adventure.
I did a private safari. Kenya was a wonderful country to visit. I found most people there to be approachable. It has a very tourism heavy economy so it has a lot of services and amenities that help travelers enjoy their trip.
I was lucky enough to see all of the big five in one day at Masai Mara. I had less luck with wildlife and bird watching after that, but you cannot control where animals will show up. Despite that I saw all of the animals and enjoyed the landscape.
If I did it again I would try to stay at lodges inside the parks. That way you can go for an early morning game drive, return for lunch and relaxation, and the do an evening game drive. I would also try to spend several days at one or two parks instead of trying to visit as many different parks as possible.
Visits to Massai villages are a must. I loved taking a boat tour at Lake Naivasha to see birds. I did get great sunrise pictures on a hot air balloon ride. However, for the cost, I would probably skip it in hindsight given I had no luck spotting animals doing it.
Make sure you have sufficient cash in small bills for tipping staff. I did not and was embarrassed when I had to find people later to tip them. Also, be prepared to haggle over prices, especially souvenirs. It is better to have someone with you while shopping.
Do bring lip balm/chapstick. Even with it my lips dried out. Goggles might be better than sunglasses when it gets dusty. Unless you are doing some very serious photography, a tripod probably won't be used because you spend most of your time in the vehicle. A sleeping bag is probably not needed at lodges. All of mine had comfy beds with sufficient blankets.

Just a wonderful safari experience
Maybe the stars aligned that I got an excellent tour guide in Stanley and interesting/friendly tour mates from CO that my safari experience can only be described as unforgettable. Communications with staff Lizzy is quick and painless including Teddy who picked me up from the airport and back. Thanks to all of you.

Very professional - punctual, efficient, helpful and well organized; exceeded our expectations.
We did a seven day private camping safari with Chris and Goodwill. They were extremely well organized and always punctual. During setup, knockdown and cooking we were generally on game drives or at a restaurant having lunch - very efficient. Chris was excellent at spotting animals and explaining their behavior. They both went out of their way to make this an amazing experience for us. We saw virtually all available animals including wild dogs and cheetahs. The food was good and plentiful.
We went to four different camps that allowed us to experience different habitats and a wide variety of animals. The booking process with Thale, including hints on where to stay before the safari and how to get to Kruger, was very helpful. Everything was as promised with no additional unexpected costs.

Mufasa Tours exceeded my expectations!
Mufasa tours was incredible. From the beginning the communicated quickly and very efficiently. The price was excellent in relation to the service quality. Our guide Patrick really knew what he was doing, looking for animals and specially for those which we were interested. The lodges were amazing. Everything was organized to perfection.

Perfect on all levels
The camping group safari was an absolutely fantastic & magical experience! Andrew, our guide, provided us with valuable insights about the wildlife we saw, guided us in the parks (he has exceptional driving skills!) and just brought the group together by making the entire experience fun. The cherry on top of this incredible adventure was the 5-star food cooked by Dullah - we ate so much and sooo incredibly well! In short: don’t hesitate and just book this tour!! :)
