Once in a lifetime experience
The wildlife and landscapes are incredible - this was our first safari so not sure how it compares to other countries, but we saw everything we wanted to see. The weather was generally pleasant, a bit cooler with a few more showers than we were expecting but nice to not be sweltering.
The vast majority of people we spoke to were very friendly and customer service is generally very good. We weren't always sure about tipping but a small gesture of appreciation always seemed to go down well.
Visitors should be prepared to be approached by sales people in popular destinations like the beach - they were always very friendly and never aggressive, but some were very persistent which did taint our experience a bit.
We were in Nairobi during the protests, and other than road closures we weren't too affected.

It's not the kind of city you can generally walk around very easily, so as long as you take sensible precautions it isn't a particularly unsafe place to be.

Surreal. The beauty and the wildlife but most of all the people will leave you stunned.
The wildlife was spectacular and the way the viewing were arranged by Mararumi safaris was nothing short of exceptional. Our driver and guide, Robin, was amazing. He was so well versed on where to find the animals and birds and was accommodating of all our requests. The places we stayed at amazing and it was a delight to enjoy international cuisines each day, along with the local fare.
The trip to Masai village was a cherry on the top. The way villagers live, how they create/make fire with just wood and stone, their way of life and the way they build the home, was a learning experience for all of us.

Fantastic experience
Kenya was a fantastic experience, starting with the Kenyans that are so friendly and helpful. The game drives were just like "National Geographic" and "Out of Africa". Masai culture is so rich and was great to visit the Masai Village.
Something to do at least once in a lifetime.

Amazing safari in Kenya
We loved Kenya! We went to Lake Nakauru and this was one of our favorites due to the diversity of animals. When we went it was so lush and green and lots of opportunities to see lots of wild life. I would have loved an additional night here. Our second favorite was Maasi Mara. So many elephants! We stayed at Osero tented Camp, this was by far my favorite tented camp. The camp was very intimate and tents were beautifully appointed. The super friendly staff and exceptional customer service made it even better. My third favorite park was Tsavo East. Lots of elephants and lost lot lions. I would highly recommended Kenya to anyone want to do a safari. We saw all of the big 5 and so much more by the second day. We also saw lions every day on our nine day safari.

Pristine paradise on earth!
Kenya has been the perfect destination for our 10 days safari with our 6yo daughter. The parks are literally bursting with wildlife and majestic scenery. The country is very diverse north to south, with lakes region and classic Masai Mara landscape in the north and dusty Amboseli and Tsavo at the south. We would recommend visiting several parks to appreciate the beauties of Kenya. Travelling such distance with a 6yo may be tiring but our fantastic guide Johnston from spirit of Kenya made sure to at we had all the breaks that we needed. Kenyans are very friendly and especially so with kids, so don’t be afraid to give them a memorable experience!!
Beautiful people and country
Kenya is a beautiful country with incredibly kind people ready to help you in anyway they can. Full of indescribable beauty and wildlife. A must to destination!

Smiling people in a beautiful country
We, group of 6 had a fantastic 15 day journey through parts of Kenya. Masai Mara, Naivasha, Amboseli, Tsavo vest, Salt Lick, and Diani beach. + 3 days in Nairobi before and after the safari.
Every where we met smiling helpful people from staff to tourist and locals.
Our tour operator was Elida Tours and safaris. I can strongly recommend them, they are dedicated group and will do everything possible to ensure that you have a fantastic Experience.
Only bit boring is if you get stuck in traffic jam. But that can of course happen anywhere in the world.

i like Kenya, everything is incredible there and hope all can be kept well
First of all, I have to stress once again that I really love about Kenya, what we see is incredible. At the same time, we also hope that while the country is getting better and better, these natural animals and plants and scenic can also be well kept. If specific suggestion, I may have two, first is to hope that the road construction can be better which can greatly decrease the time between scenic sopts , second is to hope that there can be a unified standard for travel agencies/guides, I have seen a lot of Chinese who have returned from East Africa, everyone's experience is very different, good or bad, but everyone spent a lot of money to go Kenya, experience of someone seems obviously unfair, of course, my experience is not bad.
Finally I wish all in Kenya goes better and i think i will come to East Africa again. BTW, also hope i can see cheetahs in wild again next time and thanks for your protection on them.
