Very eye-opening, exciting and satisfactory overall.
4/5

We are happy and satisfied with the service and communication provided by African Welcome Safaris.

As for our trip experience, we had a wonderful time and enjoyed ourselves a lot, but the trip would be even better except for the following:

(1) Our original confirmed booking in Kuria Hills Lodge was cancelled and we had to stay in Kuria Lemala Camp instead. The land cruisers supplied by Lemala Camp was not in good shape and the food could be better.
(2) We were bumped out of Treetop Lodge despite our confirmed and fully paid booking made one year ago. Even though the compensation package is acceptable, many of us are still quite unhappy with this unexpected change.

Other than the above, the trip was great and we particularly like the gorilla trekking and the Bisate Lodge. We will recommend them to our friends in Hong Kong.

Brilliant!
5/5

This was our second trip with Kenya Walking Survivors. We enjoyed ourselves so much the first time that we decided to return.

This time we had an itinerary designed for us based on what places we wanted to visit.

Our driver, John was good natured with a great sense of humour and an infectious laugh. He did everything he could to ensure we had a good time. We didn’t just have a good time, we had a wonderful time.

KWS offers great value for money. The accommodation, while not 5 Star was nevertheless very good. Clean and comfortable with friendly, helpful staff and good food.

A special mention to Sekenani Lodge in Masai Mara for the care they gave to one of our group who fell ill. I doubt she would have had better in a medical facility. Grace and her staff went out of their way to make sure she was comfortable and looked after. Even checking on her at regular intervals.

As stated earlier this was our second trip with KWS and I have nodoubt it won’t be our last.

Mr OT, who handles enquiries and bookings replies to all emails quickly and efficiently.

If you are contemplating a trip to Kenya I highly recommend Kenya Walking Survivors. I doubt you will find better value for money anywhere else.

Amazing Tour
5/5

This is the second trip to Kenya with KWSS. This trip was a tailor made tour to Samburu & Maasia Mara, Mr OT was very accommodating with booking this trip. We got to meet him before the start of our tour & he is as lovely in person as I thought he would be.
John our driver/guide was a lovely man with a great sense of humour. We saw some breathtaking things including Leopards mating in the Maasia Mara. This was the highlight of my trip.
We would not hesitate to book with KWSS again & are already hoping to go back next year.
This company are one of the cheapest & do not skimp on service. I would highly recommend to anyone.

An unforgettable experience
5/5

Over 40 individual lions, cheetahs (including a mother with cubs), leopards, black rhino, hippos, elephants with young, hyena, jackals, zebras, wildebeest, giraffe - the list was endless. And one of the best experiences was lying in bed in a tent just listening to the noise of the animals outside - magical.

And Deo did so much to make sure that it was more than just a "tick-off" the animals experience. We spent time watching what they did and how they interacted with each other. On one occasion we came across a pride of lions feeding on a kill. They were surrounded by jackals, hyenas and vultures and we watched enthralled as the "hangers-on" tried to muscle in and get some of the meat. The jackals were the most successful, sneaking in and grabbing a bit while the vultures and hyenas looked on. When the lions finished and moved on they all rushed in and it was over in a few seconds.

That is the thing about wildlife - just be there and experience it.

And Deo also makes sure that he respects the wildlife and explains how important this is. We work with otters ourselves and know how vital it is that people are able to watch the wildlife without disturbing it.

Deo knows so much about nature and is patient in pointing out the leopard hiding in a tree, which you had missed! Plus he is good fun to be with.

You will not be disappointed if you book a trip with him.

Delivered exactly what they promised
5/5

Our trip to visit the chimps in Gombe was a last minute arrangement and Joshua and his team made it possible with the minimum of fuss and a maximum of efficiency.

Everything worked like clockwork from the moment we were met off the plane to the moment we were dropped off at the airport after an unforgettable visit to Gombe.

This was a trip we will never forget.

5/5

Oakland tours were able to meet our expectations to the maximum, and give us a service according to our budget. This was really good and i would gladly recommend them to my friends. We did a lot of rescheduling and they were able to accommodate us. The hotel they recommended was very good, clean rooms, very good personalized service, good food.

Thank you Oakland.
