Communication when making booking was excellent as Maggie really assisted and made easy to book.
Our expectations were all met and exceeded.
Safari Tour was fulfilling as we saw all big 5 -I had so much wanted to see Rhino which i did see .
Great budget accommodation and food was delicious .
We will definitely chose Bison safaris for our next year trip to Kenya.

Good value day trip
I booked a day trip to Mikumi national park, where the car departed very early in the morning. It was of good value as it included everything: transport, park fees, lunch, snacks and guide. The driver was good and fun. Overall had a good experience, got to see most of the animals and big five in the park even though lions were hard to spot. The guide didn't speak English very well, so most of the time it was left to our guessing what was going on. One suggestion is that the guide should be more professional and can communicate better.

A wonderfull and unforgetable memory
Excelent and very helpful service and information made us feel safe and comfortable
Our guide, Ashton was very friendly and knowledgable with the wildlife. He really took care of us and "drove the extra miles" to make our safari experience absolutely fantastic

Great park for a quick safari
If you are in Nairobi and like safaris/wildlife, don't miss the opportunity and visit the Nairobi National Park, even if it is just for few hours.
The wildlife is rich considering how small and how close it is to the Kenyan capital.
During a 1-day visit, we spotted several rhinos, antelopes, a large group of buffalos (probably 100+ buffalos), lions, ostriches, giraffes, impalas, hippos, monkeys, zebras, wildebeests, boars, baboons and kudus. The landscape/vegetation is nice.
The guide told me that the wildlife was a bit more abundant during that particular time of the year because of the start of the Great Migration, which crosses the park. I am not sure how the wildlife is during other times of the year.
Considering the proximity to the city, the park is quite crowded with tourists.
I visited the park with a private guide/compact car.
In general, it was fine because the vegetation in large areas is grass, so you can see spot the animals from distance even in a compact car. A 4x4 or a taller vehicle would allow you to take some dirt roads and see farther, still the experience was great.
You can stay in Nairobi, as the park is really close to the city - from my hotel it was just 40min by car.

Edge Travel does it best!
As I write this long overdue review for Mark Stodel and Edge Travel, I am reminded of why I am booking another trip to Africa in 2018 for our travel club members. Our club puts together 4 or 5 trips a year (not the same people necessarily) and when it was time to go back to Africa, there was no second guessing--Edge Travel and only Edge Travel would do this new trip. Twenty-four of us traveled to South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe in 2012 and Mark took good care of us with every detail including a last-minute canceled flight. The camps and hotels were perfect, the tours arranged around our preferred timing and choices. We look forward to Summer 2018 for our trip to Tanzania with Edge--20 traveling friends.

Amazing
Just came back today from Masai Mara safaris, and couldn't resist the temptation to write the review. Richard, our guide and driver was fantastic. His knowledge about the routes within Masai and his connects with all the tour guides helped us to see the Big 5 on the first day itself, within few hours. We were lucky enough o see 3 rhino out of 47 in the Masai park. Lions were in plenty and so were cheetah and leopard. Richard, ensured we were fully comfortable in the tents and also had ample water bottles for the entire journey. His knowledge about the different species of animal is commendable. He really ensured that he went all out to ensure we get the expired eif a lifetime. Thanks Richard and team for this great trip. I am surely coming again with you guys again soon.
