Ripped Off
Due to health issues we had to cancel our safari trip to Kenya…despite following all of the procedures to obtain a refund less a 10% administration fee and despite assurances our refund was being processed…the tour operator has ghosted us and we have lost our money $4,500 USD.

Magnificent
We have been amazed first of all with the fresh air and cleanliness of Kenya (compared to the West Africa where we have been before coming to Kenya). The city is very vivid, travelers would find any type of cuisine and a very warm welcome from local people.
A separate blast of emotions was caused by the safari itself. It has been a dream to walk next to giraffes and watch the lioness eating her prey from the car. We were lucky to see the 4 out of the Big 5 (leopards were quite shy those days and hid from us). For those people who saw Africa on National geographic and Discovery channels - that's the picture from your TV!
I haven't noticed too many mosquitos or any other type of insects that might make you feel uncomfortable.
I definitely recommend going to Kenya - now it became visa-free, so even more reachable.
Before coming to Kenya I read that your impression and safari success heavily depends on the guide, we were very lucky to Guideon from Meektrails Safaris as our reliable and caring guide, overall level of organization was very high and I would also recommend this tour operator.

Warm country and people. It's a real pleasure to travel and stop there
We participated in a 6 day safari. Each destination brought great satisfaction and appropriate camps and places of rest and overnight stays.

Nice travel
Kenya, a mesmerizing destination, captivates with its diverse landscapes, from the stunning Maasai Mara savannah to the picturesque coastline. Immerse yourself in rich wildlife at national parks, witness the Great Migration, and experience vibrant cultures. Kenya, a jewel of East Africa, promises an unforgettable adventure blending nature and tradition.

Travelling in Kenya can be tiring because of the long road trips, but it definitely worth it !
Second time in Kenya. My impression is that the country developed in fifteen years and it's definitely moving forward. I think the overall level of services, welcoming and staff professionalism is good compare to some other countries I've been. We generally found our trip enjoyable because we didn't suffer any unexpected issue or lack of organisation, etc.
However, keep in mind that the road trips between the parks can be long and exhausting. Plus it is sometime necessary to depart early in the morning. But it totally worth it ! The scenery is exceptional and the wildlife we could observe was so numerous ! Yet, keep in mind that Kenya is a touristic destination, so in the parks we sometimes felt hard to find ourselves in the middle of nowhere enjoying the moment : so many Land Cruisers and vans around the Lions !
Regarding the security, we felt safe everywhere, in particular in Nairobi where the hotels are equipped with high end security equipment...

EVERYONE SHOULD VISIT KENYA
I went to Kenya as a volunteer , and I was with poor kids that were abandoned or abused. Although it was the sad part of our trip because you see a different world and my heart was breaking everything I was there, their smiles was making my day and made me happy.
After volunteering , we went for safari… Best experience ever. Safari in Masai Mara was unique. They say that it is a once in a lifetime experience but personally I can’t wait till the next time I will travel to Kenya and live this again

Kenya's wildlife and nature are unforgettable
We had an amazing time in Kenia and saw a lot of different animals.
We almost saw all big five, with only the lepard missing. Which is quite difficult to catch.
Every park has it's own charme and are really welcoming.
We visited Lake Nakuru, Ambosseli and Masai mara.
Our higlight was all the elefants in Ambosseli.
A big let down was the change of the price politic.
At Masai Mara f.e. the few was increased from 70 to 100$ and the entrance wasn't for 24 hours anymore.
They are also planning on increasing it to 200$ by june. Wa of milking the tourist.
Another problem was the opening hours from 06:30-18:30, which meant that it wasn't possible to see the night life of the big cats.
But it's understandable because the park is beeing protected by night against the poarchers.
We would recommend it to everyone, but you have to plan to go as early in the morning as possible and stay the whole day in the park with lunch inside.

Totaly different from Europe.
This was great experience. Totaly diffrent from Europe. Nairobi was interesting… not for walking on the streets as white person but great as experience. Overal semi-safe. Too much of a poverty. The best was Maasai ostrich farm and riding the ostrich - dream came true.
Safari in Masai Mara excceded our expetations. We saw the whole Big five and many different animals. It was great. We would do it all again anytime.
