Eco friendly tour operator
I have done several safaris but this was by far the one that was more respectful of nature. Our guide would never rush towards an animal , make noise or go to areas with many other cars. Just that alone makes all the difference. We felt we had a much exclusive experience then the previous times. Well worth the money!

Be aware of this tour company
I had a very stressful and disappointed experience with this this tour and Tom Ocharo as organizer of this mess.
Tour was for 10 nights and after 3 nights many things went wrong. My itirinary was changed doni had to spend senseless long hours on a bus going back and forth.
Tom itself spoke very bad English and communication with him was exhausting.
He was very responsive when he wanted my money but then when trouble arises he went silent.
Tom mixed up a lot of things and made my vacation very stressful.
Tour itself is not worth the money. Accommodation in fact are very cheap if you book them directly. Food was very bad.
First night after transatlantic flight I was put in a really horrible hotel and spent sleepless night listening to all night music from next door night club.
I specifically asked how many people will be in a safari car and was told by Tom no more than 7.
In fact there was 9 of us which made the whole trip very uncomfortable.
I do not recommend this company to anyone. Lots of things went wrong and there were lots of misrepresentations of what company is offering. Not worth even remotely the money spent
Highly professional company
GET developed a bespoke package to meet our needs. Best week of our life.
Their experience shines through

An excellent experience
The staff were incredibly helpful, responsive and accommodating whilst booking the trip from Australia. Once we arrived everything ran smoothly and on time, we did the one day gorilla tour in Uganda which was incredible however a very tough and long hike so be prepared. It was an experience of a lifetime and would highly redommwnd

Birding Weekend
The quality of service was great. The guide, Jonathan, was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. The flexibility of Asahambe Adventures was fantastic in terms of providing options at short notice. The "local" non-tourist type experience was most enjoyable. I'll definitely be spending more time with Asahambe.......

We had great time and experience with so sweet and considerate service from Arkman Africa!
I think that anyone can not forget their sweet smile. So considerate. Always there for help.
Take you as their family members. I really enjoyed the tour!

Just that bit different and special.
We are travelling back to Samburu in January 2016, for our 7th visit, which has to say something about the reserve. We have spent time in the Masai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli, Tsavo all of which are beautiful and have been privileged to witness some amazing game viewing, but for me Samburu has a special place in my heart and I feel as if I am 'home'. It probably has a lot to do with the number of elephants and the close encounters we have experienced in their company, but Samburu is special and totally different to all the other reserves, mentioned above, that we have visited.

Review about Kenya by Lynn
If you are travelling to Africa for the first time and want to see as much of the wildlife as possible then Kenya is the place to go.

It was wonderful we could catch the best moments!
Martha, tha manager was super kind with us, she helped since we conntacted with big times about information of the safari and was in touch with us untill we finished the safari. James, our driver was great, super funny and very professional. Our expectations were acomplished and they gave us a experience so much better than we expected! I recommend to everybody to do the safari with big times because the relationship price experience is simply the best.
