Amazing experience
I really enjoyed my trip. That was incroyable experience. I saw so many animals. The guide Chedi is so funny and he taught us so much about animals and culture of the country. The foods making by the cook was really tasty. The owner Bartho is extremely understanding and he make sure that everything is perfect.
It’s worth it, I recommend.

Fantastic one week trip through Kenya thanks to Joseph and his team
Just back after a fantastic one week tour through Kenya. It was organized by Joseph and his team. Due to Corona, I reached out to various local operators at very short notice for this trip. I booked with Joseph because of his impeccable track record here and on Tripadvisor. He also impressed with his responsiveness - he quickly followed up on every whim I had (I'm sure he must pretty much hate me :-)). His pricing was also quite competitive.
Regarding the tour, it was Lake Naivasha (Hell's Gate NP => the bike ride is highly recommended - a very different safari experience), Masai Mara (fantastic of course) & Lake Nakuru (rhinos). For the 5 nights, it was nice and the drives not too cumbersome.
Joseph was honest enough to admit that I probably could get better quotes for the Diani extension I had in mind if I booked the hotel directly (which I did - relying again on his suggestions). Since the tourism business in Kenya is down unfortunately, I got lucky and with Patrick, I probably had one of the most experienced guides the country has to offer. Knowledgeable, good company, safe driver. I could not have had a better travel companion. A big thank you to both for great memories - I'll be back. :-)

Nice
We had a great safari with Kubwa Five Safaris.
It was a trip to remember, we saw many animals, the animals such as lions, leopards, rhinos that I had seen in the wild.
Peter was a great guide, he knew a lot about animals, he was very friendly and had sense of humour.
If you book with this company for a vacation in Kenya, please ask for Peter to be your guide.
We liked the hotels, their customer care and, meals were great.
If you are planning an African vacation, Kubwa Five Safaris is company to contact, you won't be disappointed, in fact, they offer you services beyond your expectations.

"Thanks Lelaa Tours"
Everything went well. The communication was good, the suggested accommodations corresponded to what we intended and glamping is a very interesting economic alternative. Our guide Justwin was fantastic and provided us with a wonderful experience.
Without any doubt,thanks Eric and the whole team, I would re-book with Lelaa Tours and Safari.

"A great company and good team"
We have spent an amazing time with Lelaa tours during our 5 days safari, we went to Tarangire ,Manyara Ngorongoro and Serengeti national parks,
We can highly recommend Eric and his company, he was very attentive to our needs and questions before arriving.
From the time we were picked up at Kilimanjaro Airport to the hotel, I and my girlfriend felt safe and knew we were in good hands.
The tour itself was absolutely brilliant. We had Elemes as our tour guide, he was really friendly a good driver and guide also ,very familiar and knowledgeable with environment and animals as well connected with other tour guides ,we were able to see so many incredible animals.
Truly amazing experience - amazing lodges, and great tour company to travel with.

Fabulous, we recommend with eyes closed.
We chose the Mufasa company to visit Lake Naivasha, the hot springs of Lake Elementary as well as the Great Rift Valley. We had a very nice stay.
In addition, I would like to congratulate their professionalism. I spoke to Joseph, the owner, and explained to him that we had to leave kenya in 2 days, that we would first have to do a covid test to be able to make the visit, he offered to take us to do the test by picking us up from the hotel before starting the visit. In addition, we only had euros with us and the day before I told him that we wanted to change the currency into shilling, despite all the offices being closed, because very early in the morning they found a solution and we were able to change the currency.
We had made the excursion with Nelson (the driver) who is also very professional, a very nice man, smiling, and very helpful, we kept in touch with Nelson who is now our friend. Thank you for this unforgettable moment spent with you.
I highly recommend the Mufasa company 100%. Go ahead with your eyes closed.

Excellent
The communications and trip arrangements were timely and efficient. I did a 3 days safari to Amboseli together with my family and had a great time including the game drives. The hotel was also excellent. I definitely look forward to doing another safari with Arboreal Safaris. Keep up the good work!
Not any better choice than Peafoul
All services were performed with great professionalism and style. If you are fortunate and Patric is your driver he is the best!

8 days / 7 nights tailored Kenya Safari
We have booked our Safari with Explorer Kenya a few weeks before our trip.
The contact via Email with Explorer Kenya was easy and Robert got always back with answers in no time.
At the end we had a tailor made safari of 8 days and 7 nights in Amboseli and Masai Mara.
The entire organization was top. There was a little hick up as we ordered Softdrinks throughout the entire safari but they got forgotten. The problem could be solved very easy during the trip.
Our Safari Driving Guide Jonathan was top. He was super helpful, professional and he brought us always safe and sound from A to B. Thanks to his enthusiasm and the radio equipment of the Land cruiser we were able to see so many animals in both parks and had some unforgettable moments.
As a little con I would like to mention the hassle with the payment. First the company charges a high percentage of 3,9% of the total amount for Visa and Mastercard payments. This shouldn't be anymore in 2021. (By the way: we didn't pay any credit card fees at hotels, Lodges, shops and so on). But ok, so we choose the bank transfer. I sent the deposit of the safari with all costs covered by my bank but 15$ got lost somewhere in the transaction. It was no problem as I payed the rest of the amount prior arrival. So I did sent the rest of the amount, all costs covered by myself plus an additional 15$ to cover the cost lost in transaction. But this time 33$ didn't arrived. Explorer Kenya said it is an intermediate bank but my house bank operates worldwide and sent the amount direct. So to avoid losing 48$ please check with your bank about the payment.
All in all we had an amazing stay in Africa and the Parks and variety of animals are simply amazing. Thank you to Jonathan for the adventures and guiding us during our Safari.
