Amazing
Kenyans are so welcoming & friendly. Always smiling!
The wildlife is like no other. We got up close & personal with the animals. In the 4x4, we toured Amboseli & Masai Mara. A wonderful experience!
The weather was warm, clear & sunny... what more can one want.
A brilliant way to see animals in their natural habitat.
We watched sunrise & sunset, beautiful & picturesque! We photographed animals with sunrise & sunset...a sight to behold! It’s forever imprinted in memory!
The accommodation was brilliant! Clean, excellent room service, friendly staff. Buffet meals three times a day, hot well prepared food, lots of choice! Just amazing!
Our safaris guides were brilliant! We had Emmanuel for Amboseli & he drove us around endlessly & patiently.
For Masai Mara we had Ruben,

Great safari experience
The van we used was a bit run down, but the seats were comfortable. We were 6 people in the van in Masai Mara, plus the driver Aron. Thereafter we were 4 in the van, plus Aron. The roads are dusty and bumpy in many places, but Aron made us feel safe and well taken care off by him. Arony seemed

to be a very experienced driver and he had much knowledge about the animals we saw, In Masai Mara we were very lucky and saw the big 5. Aron ensured that we got the best out of the game drives. We had plenty of time to take pictures. Aron was driving us as close to the animals as possible, and at the same time respecting them and their space. The wildlife in Masai Mara and Amboseli was amazing.The only negative part was that the agency could not take us to Nakuru right after Masai Mara, as planned. They said that the reason was because of our flight delay and that they had to reschedule it this way. After Masai Mara we went to Amboseli. Karibu safari offered us to go to Nakuru afterwards or bring us back to Nairobi. The trip from Amboseli to Nakuru involves several more hours of driving than from Masai Mara, and we decided not to go there after all. Because of this, Karibu Safari gave us some money back. Allthough we were a bit disappointed, we appreciated the deal, and it seemed fair.
In Amboseli we stayed in tented camps where we had our own room with private bathroom. The standard is budget, but the camps in Masai Mara and Amboseli were okey. They served buffet for breakfast and dinner, and we were able to charge our cameras and phones. All in all; we had a great safari experience and will highly recommend Karibu Safari. Make sure you ask for Aron as a driver :)

Amazing
Safari was amazing, booking agent was brilliant and very helpful, answered every email and question I had and organised transfers very well. Stayed at kichwa tempo which was beautiful, it had a very personal touch, the lodges were perfect and the food was lovely. Our guide was brilliant and went out his way to make sure we see whatever we was interested in. Weather was hot in day time slightly cold of night time and early mornings. Overall had one of the best times in my life here was absolutely perfect.

Dreams became true!
Amazing safari week by BeaconSafaris visiting Masai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli, West and East Tsavo. High class driver/guide, pleasant true luxury accommodation in lodges inside parks. No words about nature and wildlife-only senses and emotions. Attractive 1week stay on ocean cost in Miami Beach.

Fantastic safari
We had chosen to spend our Christmas on Safari, here we had some years ago been to SA and Kruger Park. This was a complete different experience, we liked it a lot and thanks to our fantastic driver James, we managed to see all big 5's in one day at Masai Mare
I don't know if we were lucky with Amazing Safarie's and their driver James, whom took us round for one week, he was pleasant, with knowledge and every thing went smooth, accommodation food and transport all worked very well !
We would not hesitate to use same company and driver on our next safari

Kenya is a Magical Place
Kenya is beautiful. The vast savannas with wildlife were more than what I imagined. We visited the Masai Mara in January, it had rained the week before, and for a couple of hours overnight while we were there, so it was very green.
Our accommodations were excellent and most importantly, all the people we met were friendly and helpful. We felt they all wanted to be of service. The food was good. Our guide from Spirit of Africa was very knowledgeable, competent at driving us on difficult dirt roads and aware of where to go to see animals. He was patient with us allowing us time to take photos when we let him know we wanted to stay. He also had a good relationship with all the people we came in contact with along the way.
The animals on the safari were a highlight - a lioness guarding her cubs, elephants traveling together with their young, a giraffe walking with 2 young ones a seated giraffe - wow, plus lots of gazelles and a variety of other animals. It was really quite exciting to be there.

Breathtaking views and wildlife sightings - one of the best experiences of my life!

full day in the park, and were lucky enough to see the Big 5, as well as lots of other animals such as cheetahs, hippos, ostriches, zebras, giraffes, jackals etc. Evans was a fantastic guide, and made sure we were successful in finding even the most elusive of animals such as a leopard and a black rhino. We had fantastic weather throughout our trip, and loved having a chance to have a picnic on the plains of the Maasai Mara! Thank you to everyone involved in making our holiday one of the best experiences of our lives!
