Right choice tours and safaris driver Ken made our trip amazing!
Overall rating
4/5

We were only in the Masai Mara for 1 full day, and so did not expect to see much. Our guide Ken, who we booked through right choice tours and safaris was so skilled he found us 8 cheetah (my favourite animal- I did not imagine I would be lucky enough to see even one. He found eight!), a pride of lions with cubs, a leopard!!, elephants, giraffe, an eagle, and heaps of gazelles, zebra, and wildebeest.

5/5

It was a massive experience I’ve ever had in life!! Richard is such a great nice guy!!

He found literally a giant (no kidding it was enormous and rather scary) crocodile having a wild lunch in the river. It was in the middle of food chain & something I could never experience back home in Japan!!

No only did I saw the crocodiles, I saw all the animals +++α I wanted to see including lions, cheetahs, elephants, zebras, giraffes, Gnus, hyenas, hippos, chrocodiles & much much more!! Maybe 50+ animals that I could never see back home!! You can see those wild ones only in Africa. This is a must-do experience.

2nights 3 days happened to be a great choice for me. It was accommodative. neither too short nor too long. A full day in the middle will get you a full of animals you may only see in the animal picture book.

The morning session of the last day was spent in Masai village. Here is another once in a lifetime experience. You can spend time with them inside their houses.

Once again I strongly recommend this trip.
All the credit goes to Richard & the tour company. Thank you.

こちらのパッケージはおすすめです!
11月上旬の乾季に行ったのですが、天気も良く、夜は星が綺麗で全く問題なかったです!

川ではシマウマを捕食する巨大なワニ(全長5-6メートルは優にありそうでした。。)を発見!

ちょっとグロかったですが、これもアフリカならでは。一生物の経験です!他にもライオン、チーター、象、キリン、ヌー、ハイエナ、カバなどなど。

ガイドのリチャードはめちゃ良い人です。彼のお陰で沢山の動物を見ることが出来ました。

2泊3日をチョイスしたのですが、中1日のゲームドライブで沢山動物が見れ、最終日にはマサイ村で彼らの生活を見ることができ大満足です。コスパ最高でした。チップ盛ってあげてちょうど良いくらいです。おすすめです!

We visited Katanga forest, Lake Nakuru, Maasai Mara and Amboseli over 9 days
Overall rating
5/5

Kenya is a great place to visit on safari. We enjoyed everywhere we went - which was a self picked itinerary. In retrospect I think we should have visited fewer parks in the time available as we did have some long days driving. Our driver was excellent at finding game for us - and was always keen to find as much as possible for us to see!
Food and accommodation everywhere was very good.

Outstanding experience, Maasai Mara is stunning - the animal viewing, the sunsets, everything
Overall rating
4/5

The wildlife is abundant in Maasai Mara. The scenery at Lake Nakuru is quite different from the Mara, but it's worth the trip. We opted for a 4x4 and it was well worth it - I wouldn't want to do the drive to the park, and the game drive, in a van. Our guide was knowledgeable and kept in contact with other guides to ensure we saw the Big 5, and then some.

The food at our accommodations was good. We felt well taken care of. The food on the way to/from Lake Nakuru was ok. It was tasty, there just wasn't much in the way of selection.

Here more about our safari:
The most unforgettable vacation among others (Bali, Phillipines, Canaries, Medditerranian islands, ...)!!!
I quested 4 companies at the beginning and only WILD Safaris and Travel's representative Tom kept answering on my requests while I was sticking together our ambitious wishes with our possibilities. Tom was very attentive, explained everything on e-mail and whatsapp, answered on all my requests, within max 24 hours.
With Tom's kind assistance also were purchased tickets for SGR train Nairobi - Mombasa (beach) to go after safari and back, as such purchase can be done only from local telephone owner.
We were met at Nairobi airport at night upon arrival by representative as agreed and after 4 days safari dropped out at our chosen accommodation
During our tour we stayed at 2 different places - Midi Mingi Ecocamp and hotel in Nakuru. We were welcomed with a lot enthusiasm at each place! The staff was very friendly and very accommodating. The food was very taste, a la fourchette, and always hot and fresh and plenty of it.

About safary: our driver and guide in one person - Patrik -incredible sense of where rare animals could be found, attracting descriptions about their habits and lives! and all - with light sense of humor! We saw all big 5 (rhinos - at Nakuru), many times lions - males with overfull stomachs, group of females, couple! and plenty of my lovely giraffes and elephants crossing the road!
Patrik has fantastic intuition where rare animals could be met. Patrik was so sincere and genuine in wanting to get to know us and make sure we were having the best time of our lives. Also visit to Masai Village third day morning was educational and interesting.

So exciting all together!

Our expectations were exceeded as we got value for our money.
We saw many animals (all big 5) thank to our very charismatic driver/guide Patric.
We highly recommend services of WILD Safaris and Travel to any traveler to Kenya.

After safari adventures we enjoyed one week at north (Malindi, Bonino Chalet) from Mombasa and south (Galu, Bidi Badu Zanzibar) beaches - greatest relax!
Highly recommend to attend Crocodile and Snake farm -Malindi!so exciting, with portion of good humor stories about all animals from farm owner, ex-professional snake catcher! There you can meet all famous politician names!

We had a great 7 day Big Game safari with Boundless Africa Journeys. Our rep Annette was extremely organized and thorough with our itinerary. Upon our arrival in Nairobi she was also most kind and helpful with a half day short notice tour ahead of our safari start. This is where we met Enock, our guide. He is the guide extraordinare, punctual, organized, knowledgeable with excellent driving skills. We completed seeing both the Big Five and the Samburu Special Five with credit to Enock . Top marks to BAJ for this trip of a lifetime !

Better than expected adventure of a lifetime
Overall rating
5/5

The ride was a bit long and rough. If you can afford it, fly in to the reserve. The wildlife was fantastic we saw every animal except a leopard. Accommodations were quite comfortable, and we never encountered any mosquitoes. Food was excellent. Weather was perfect, cool, not chilly, and clear. We have a baboon climb into the land cruiser and begin to help himself to some food, which was a little frightening, but very cool also.

My niece and I planned a 3 day safari to Masai-Mara for the final week of October followed by a trip to Lamu Island for 3 days on the beach and exploring the town. We were so pleased with our amazing booking agent Paula who thought thru every detail such as flights and airport transfers between various airports. We could turn our minds down and open our hearts to relax and take everything in.

There was so much to take in! The animals on the safari were all having their babies at this time of year, lucky for us, so we could take in family groups with ease. The wildebeests were finishing their migrations so that was gorgeous to see how they organized themselves. Our guide on the safari went above and beyond to track a wide variety of animals and each day we found ourselves saying "how can it get any better than this?" only to be surprised at how it would always did!

The most special were all the hearts of the Kenyans we met, truly warm and big and kind. We were made to feel so welcome. In fact, that word "Welcome" was said to us many many times and it was felt deeply by us. Kenya is in our hearts and we hope to return to see more of this great country!
