Excellent service and attention to detail, truly outstanding.
I visited the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Nairobi National Park, organized by Royal Star Expeditions, and I must say it was a truly incredible experience. From the moment we set off on our safari land cruiser, I knew we were in for a treat.
First and foremost, I have to commend Royal Star Expeditions for providing us with an excellent safari land cruiser. The vehicle was comfortable, well-maintained, and equipped with everything we needed for a successful game drive. Our driver was knowledgeable and experienced, ensuring that we had the best possible vantage points to spot wildlife.
Now, let's talk about the main attraction - the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. One of the highlights of our visit was witnessing baby elephants drinking milk from giant feeding bottles. It was an absolute delight to see these adorable creatures being cared for and nurtured by the dedicated staff at the trust. The sight of them clumsily splashing around in mud during their bath time was especially endearing.
The visiting hours at the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust are between 11 am and noon, and it's important to note that the entry fee is paid in cash at the gate. Thanks to Royal Star Expeditions, we were well-informed about these details beforehand, which made the entire process smooth and hassle-free.
I must also commend Royal Star Expeditions for their excellent communication and seamless booking process. They took care of all the arrangements, including securing our visit to the wildlife trust. They provided timely updates and ensured we were well-prepared for the experience. Their professionalism and efficiency are truly commendable.
Overall, I highly recommend visiting the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, and if you have the chance, I strongly urge you to book your visit through Royal Star Expeditions. The sight of baby elephants being cared for is heartwarming, and the experience is made even better with a reliable and knowledgeable tour operator like Royal Star. Thank you for an unforgettable safari experience!

MY SCHOOL TRIP TO AMBOSELI
I can't express enough how grateful I am to Royal Star Expeditions for organizing an incredible sch trip to Amboseli National Park for my daughter and her classmates.From start to finish,the planning and execution of the trip were impeccable, leaving both the students and the parents entirely satisfied.
My daughter was bursting with joy and couldn't stop talking about her unforgettable experience at the place. She was truly over the moon,and her first words as she returned home were, "I want to go on more safaris!" That alone speaks about the amazing time she had.
One aspect that truly stood out was the level of communication maintained by the Royal Star Expeditions. They ensured that every detail of the safari was clearly communicated to us, allowing us to be well-prepared and at ease throughout the journey. Their prompt and thoughtful responses to our queries reassured us that our child was in capable hands.
Not only did the team at Royal Star Expeditions excel in communication, but they also showcased exceptional care for the students. From the moment they arrived at the park, the staff went above and beyond to ensure safety and enjoyment of the students. The guides were not only knowledgeable about the wildlife and the park but also took time to educate the students, making the experience both fun and enriching.
So impressed were we with Royal Star Expeditions' commitment to excellence that we decided to take our daughter on another safari to Nairobi National Park shortly after. And once again, they delivered beyond our expectations, creating another incredible adventure for our family.
Without a doubt, I highly recommend Royal Star Expeditions for any school trip or safari experience. Their unwavering dedication, attention to detail, and genuine care for each participant truly sets them apart. We're forever grateful for the memories they've helped create, and we eagerly look forward to our next safari with them.

Amazing and Friendly Experience !
We booked our 3 day Safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro through Mountain Warriors. Their price was fair compared to other safari agencies with all domestic flights and hotel transfers taken care of by them from Zanzibar. So it was a hassle-free experience for us as Rehema from Mountain warriors dealt with our customized itenary and domestic bookings very smoothly. Our Safari guide, Ally was very friendly and made our game drive experience a unique one. When our kids were little travel sick, they also made sure to get the requested meals in the Safari accommodations. Overall, we had a great Safari experience with Mountain warriors.

Amazing 6 day Kenyan Safari with Joshua and Jocky Tours
We have just finished our 6 night Safari in Kenya (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli) with Jocky tours and it was a phenomenal experience. All of the accommodations were great and comfortable (Mara Sopa, Lake Nakuru Lodge, Amboseli Kibo). Our guide Joshua was amazing and incredibly knowledgeable; not only about the animals, but the history and geography of Kenya as well and was able to answer any question we had (and we had a lot). It was an absolute pleasure spending 6 days with Joshua. It is clear that Joshua loves what he does and that shows in his efforts as a guide, he was just as excited as we were to spot a leopard (we ended up seeing a few and were able to see all of the big 5 during our first full day at Mara) and always went the extra mile to make sure we had a comfortable and exciting experience. Thank you for an amazing week, we loved every minute of our tour with Joshua and Jocky Tours.

They are professionals
We took 4 days safari with them. Everything went really well, our driver ( Amiri) has been doing this for 12 year so knew it all. The food was great ( chef Pius) and everything went really smooth from the pickup until the day drop off.

Everything was great!
The safari was incredible, our driver Amiri was very experienced and knew everything! We slept in tents and was really comfortable, the food was very nice as we had hot meals everyday. The highlight was to see a lioness with her cubs 2 meters from us!

Great experience
The experience was great. Khalifa was very experienced and enthusiastic. He helped us find many animals and even drove for a while until it got dark. I was lucky enough to capture a pride of lions hunting and many good photos.

Pros
Our point of reference before and after, Daniel, was great. Our guide, Amir, was incredible.
I took my family, wife and two young children, on a four day safari through the Segengeti and the Crater. We chose the mid-range option.
This companies organization was impeccable. Amir’s knowledge of the area was difficult to belief. He, without the use of GPS, which I’m sure was available, but not necessary, was able to navigate my family throughout the biggest expansion of land that I have ever experienced. Further, given that you are literally completely emerged in both the beauty and ugliness of the area, it did not escape my attention that not only I, but more importantly, my family were at it mercy, and that we required someone able to deal with any situation comforted. Amir was not only able, but was actually helping other companies fix their broken-down land cruisers along the way.
Facilities were extremely nice and the service at each was over the top. My family and I came back to our tented camp (which is really just a nice hotel room in the bush with cavas wall), on one of the colder evenings, to have noticed that the staff had filled hot-water bladders (“bush babies”) into our beds so to warm them prior to our arrival. Five-star service.
Well done.
