Memorable 9 day safari in Kenya with Africa Safari Classics
Maurice of Africa Safari Classics did a superb job of organizing the trip, which included 5 game parks, and was exceptionally responsive to emails regarding details prior to the onset of the trip. He even made a special effort to see us at our hotel in Nairobi the day before the safari started to ensure the details were clear and kept in contact with our driver, Muli Jones, and with us throughout the trip.
Our driver, Muli Jones, was tireless and enthusiastic, even after a full day of game drives or driving us on the heavily trafficked roads between the parks. His love of animals and for Kenya was clear. He had an amazing eye for lions and cheetahs, and, on several occasions, saw a lion walking far in the distance and did his best to take us to see it. He also did an excellent job of getting us out of

Amboseli after a heavy rainfall turned the only exit road into a flooded and raging river, arranging for a Land Cruiser to tow us out. The water of the river reached up to our vehicle doors but we were one of the few vehicles to make it out of the game park that morning so we could continue our trip. He was a safe driver as well and never seemed to let traffic congestion or slow downs frustrate him.Our lodging was also excellent. It included both tent camps and lodges. I would like to make special mention of Severin Tent Camp in Tsavo West. The food was truly excellent with 4 course meals. Also, the Ark Forest Lodge in Aberdare had a wonderful viewing area where one could sit and read or relax and the animals would come to you. They had a buzzer that woke you at night if certain animals came, so we were able to see the group of 4 elephants who were protecting the baby from the hyenas at 12:45 am. We both wished we could have stayed there another night or two.
I recommend Africa Safari Classics without hesitation and hope to travel with them again in the future.

It was absolutely fantastic!
Me, my husband and 10 year old son are all deeply impressed and overwhelmed of our 4 days safari in the Masaii Mara. We experienced pure magic together with our fantastic guide Anthony/Beacon Safari. During game driving we actually nailed the Big 5 within one day! Amazing!
All the best to both Ashnil Mara Camp and Flamingo Hill Camp, Luxury tent accommodations is really nice. Food and service was super.

Production in a Safari
We arranged our trip with BackofAfrica Adventure, in general all of the agreements were accomplished and the attention of Allan was impecable. We learn not every people of Kenya are as honest as he was with us with their work.
We do not have anything more to say than it was an extreme and amazing experience to get to know all the landscapes, animals and people from the Masai tribe. We had every support from the company to make a photography and film production on the parks.

Unforgettable.
Kenya is on a good way of helping to reestablish the numbers in the wildlife. The level of touristic services there is international, and one can find reasonable infrastructure in the country. In good time the Masai are changing their rites of passage and are willing not to kill lions anymore. Taking into account all the difficulties the nation faces the balance is positive and the experience worths. We were lucky enough to see some animals that hardly appear ( Serval, Dwarf Mongoose, etc.) for others like the classic Big Five, our guides from Africa Safaris were experts on locating them. The landscape is spectacular!! The capital city Nairóbi will not disappoint you. Our only regret, we did not have enough time to see all the country, so the littoral is still waiting for a visit, maybe next time.

An unforgettable vacation

to travel. The accommodations that were arranged were very comfortable, clean with hot water and wifi at each location. The food was plentiful and good. The weather during our trip could not have been better with clear warm days everyday. The last morning at Amboseli we had a breath taking view of Mount Kilimanjaro which made for a great family photo. The people of Serene Safaris really did a great job and I highly recommend them. Our sincere thanks to Peter and Peter for an unforgettable family vacation!!! WELL DONE!!

It's an amazing experience to see all the "zoo" animals in the wild
The wildlife and scenery of Kenya were truly amazing. We went in December and had great weather (not too hot) and everything was green and beautiful. Animals are everywhere. Be prepared for lots of time in a car; from the travel among the parks to the game drives themselves, much of the day is spent in the car unless you specifically plan for activities. Make sure you get plenty of cash in Nairobi for souvenirs and tips - there are no ATMs in the usual tourist areas outside of the city, though US dollars and Euros were accepted just about everywhere. It's a beautiful country with friendly people. We only had 5 days there, but truly enjoyed it.

Lifetime Experience
As our safari ended, we would like to let you know about our experience! It was amazing! It was a dream that came true! Especially the Maasai Mara Park is exactly what we had seen in documentaries! Sometimes we couldn't realise that we were actually there!
Our driver, Ken, is an amazing person and a wonderful driver as well. He was so persistent in searching for animals, he didn't stop until he found them all! Also, he mentioned a lot of info about the animals we were seeing, he was patient with our questions. His driving skills are top class. He made some crossings of deep creeks that seemed impossible. I really enjoyed the off road driving, as part of the whole experience. He was always polite and pleasant and he assisted our search for a wooden elephant sculpture! We are so pleased with our little elephant that my girlfriend decided to name it after Ken! Although the safari experience is breathtaking itself, Ken managed to make it even better!
Overall, we enjoyed to the max our safari. Thank you for that.
