Extremly friendly people, fascinating wildlife, beautiful scenery
Overall rating
4/5

We had our Safari in early May. So the number of tourists was low, which created a very relaxed atmosphere with a superb service. All facilities were open and well staffed. Beacon Tours had selected top level lodges. The peak temperature in Nairobi, Masai Mara and Nakuru Park was 25 degrees which was very comfortable. In four days we watched the fig four (only leopards kept hiding) from short distance. About 30 lions, 50 buffalos, 50 girafes, 30 elephants,hundreds of antilopes, impalas, zebras, white and dark rhinos, hippos, cheetas, monkeys, ostrichs, others birds....
ALL people were very friendly and helpful. We had the impression that a whole country was working on giving us the best vacation experience of our lifes.

I very much enjoyed viewing wildlife from a very short distance and experiencing indigenous culture in Masai Mara. People are very friendly. Food, facilities, roads and overall tourist service is of good quality.

Overall rating
5/5

I have been in Kenya for about 8 months, it is one of my favorite places I have ever been to. The people are extremely nice, the food is good, Swahili is fun language to learn. I might be making a mistake leaving the country for other opportunities, but I am sure I will be back. I have seen Watamu, Mombassa, Diani, Shimoni on the coast, scuba diving and snorkeling. In the interior, I have been to both Tsavos, Mount Kenya, Aberdares, Naivasha, Nakuru and Masai Mara, among other places. Come to Kenya. You won't regret it.

Loved Kenya!

5/5

Awesome safari in Samburu National Park! Stunning scenery with an incredible number of elephants. Tented safari camp was an amazing experience. Ol Pejeta was an incredible location as well with tented safari camp beside a watering hole. Unreal sounds at night. Tons of rhinos. They even put a hot water bottle in our bed so that we wouldn’t be cold in the early morning. Food was very good as well at both locations. Overall experience was excellent! Service was excellent and extremely friendly at all locations even airport customs. Would highly recommend.

Wildlife beauty at its best
Overall rating
5/5

I visited Kenya in the month of April to celebrate my Son's birthday & a true animal lover. So we decided there cannot be a better way than celebrating his special day in the middle of the jungle & with the best wildlife on this planet & to our surprise it was much better than what we had expected.

It was a lifetime experience & a non forgettable one.

From the game drive, to the scenic beauty to the stay & even the food everything was exceptional.

Our biggest concern was on the food as my wife being a vegetarian we were carrying a lot of ready to cook food but the food what we got in both the resorts were so amazing that we end up not even opening a single packet of food that we were carrying with us.

Also, the hospitality was amazing and we faced no issues during our stay.

I would like to thank our tour operator "Extramile Unique Adventures" for taking care of everything from the time we landed till our departure. A special thanks to our Tour Guide "James" as his name he is a Jem of a person.

Absolutely worth a visit (or more)
Overall rating
5/5

I visited Nairobi, Masai Mara and Mombasa.
Nairobi is a beautiful city with a lot of tourist attractions.
I visited KICC. Beautiful view.
National Museum. (With a guide)So exiting.
Giraf Center. Very fun to feed the girafs.
Masai Mara is beautiful and full of exiting experiences. Even the Jeep ride there is full of beautiful scenery.
We had a nice "hotel" AA Logde. Lovely pool, super cabins and good food. Very nice staff.
And Safari is an undescrible experience. Super exiting is how i will describe it with few words.
Mombasa is nice and calm. Very hot. But i think its mostly for beach vacation. Good food, wonderful beaches.
All together people all over are very friendly and helpful.
And they all speak english wich is a BIG plus.
Im gonna come back for sure.

Safari like what you see in the nature documentaries
Overall rating
5/5

We had so much fun in Kenya. We had the best luck of all time and saw every animal we could possibly want on our 8 day safari. The tourism business is great. We felt safe the entire time. The service was great at all 5 hotels- we thought maybe it was a little much and that every time a hotel employee looked at you there was the expectation of a tip. So that was maybe a little pressure especially when hotels don't have ATMs and you're in the middle of a national park so you run out of cash! But overall, this was the trip of a lifetime and we had a fantastic time with AMazing Memories Safaris!

Absolutely the Best Choice For My First Solo Trip
Overall rating
5/5

I was excited and then nervous when I took the leap and booked my airline tickets, hotels, experiences and safaris in Kenya on my own as a 56 year old woman. It was my first ever solo trip and my first time to visit Africa half a world away. Kenya was AMAZING! The people in Kenya are universally friendly, kind and the best hosts I have ever encountered. So many people extended themselves to make sure I was well taken care of throughout my trip. Not only did I get to enjoy the scenic beauty and animals in Amboseli and the Mara, but the many Kenyans I met during my two week stay will live in my heart and memory for the rest of my life. Don’t hesitate just visit Kenya!
