Wonderful private safari experience for eight days
5/5

We had an amazing safari of eight days to Amboseli, Lake Nakuru National Park, and Masai Mara!
From our initial interaction till we bade goodbye, we had a smooth experience.
We started our discussions with Robert in January 2020 for a safari in October 2020. Robert was able to understand our requirements, and provided us with a tailored itinerary for a private safari for my wife and myself in a safari van for our stated budget. He was flexible and responsive, and was able to tweak the plan to suit our liking. We made the advance payment in early February 2020. We had numerous questions being our first African safari, and Robert was patient enough to answer them all in a timely manner.

Then, the pandemic put a halt to our travel plans, and Robert was gracious enough to allow us to delay our trip by up to a year. During this period, we stayed in touch and Robert was responsive and kept the communication flowing.

When the travel restrictions eased out in late September of 2021, Robert was agile enough to bring back our safari from deep-freeze and was able to arrange for it in a short notice.

We finally did our safari from October 14, 2021 to October 21, 2021.
Robert also arranged to pick us up from the airport to our accommodation on October 13, 2021.

Patrick was our driver and guide for the safari. He was friendly and helpful, and understood our tastes and preferences. He drove safely at all times, and tackled some rough terrain during our safaris with great skill. He showed good judgement on what he could tackle with the vehicle and what he couldn't. As a result, we were never stuck anywhere during our drives.
We saw a ton of wildlife during our game drives.
Patrick was knowledgeable to explain them to us, and got some great sightings. He did a good mix of his own spotting and using the information from radio from the other guides.
His eye for spotting wildlife came to the fore when he spotted a leopard on the first evening's game drive in the Masai Mara. The leopard was well hidden within the foliage of the tree, but, Patrick's expert eyes spotted the kill stashed on one of the branches and spotted the hidden leopard!
At the Mara, he used information from the radio on the first full day game drive to ensure we saw some of the animals we'd never seen before. On the other days at Mara and at Amboseli, he avoided the crowds and ensured we had a great experience.
We had a fantastic experience at the accommodations we stayed at, and our dietary requirements were taken care of (vegetarian food).

Overall, we had an amazing and a memorable experience, and we greatly recommend Beacon Safaris!

We loved the driver because he was very friendly and kind. He stopped all the time during the game drives while we wanted to spot the animals. He did not have a bad behaviour at all. I would recommend him to anyone.
