We did a three day safari, which is enough. It's very lovely to see all those animals, and we saw the big five.
The weather was okey, which is good to go in winter, because then it's not too hot.
The accomodation was fine, but we didn't really meet other people.
We are from Holland, and the most of all those people on these accomodations are from England.
The food was good. Our gide was a nice guy. We are happy with this Safari!

Amazing safari!

The safari and all the animals were amazing. We managed to see almost every animal in our 6 days safari. Masai Mara was my favorite park. The accomodation wasn't luxury at all in the tended camp but we had all the minimum services and the food was good. I think this is part of the experience. Our driver was super skilled, always connected to other drives to communicate where the animals were. The agency (budget holiday safari) is very serious and we respected the program. Amazing experience

Great wildlife and scenery.
Weather was great
Accomodations for the 3rd night was awesome, the first and second night was great, especially the hidden tunnel that went to the watering hole.
Guide was very good, Nimrod.

Only thing I would do differently is take the train to and from Nairobi to Tsavo East. Driving back into Nairobi (just before we got to the airport area) was very long and painfully slow. We stayed downtown and it must have take at least 2 hours from the airport to our hotel.

Fabulous Safari Experience

We just finished a Safari to Lake Nukuru and Masai Mara and I think it was one of our best experiences as a holiday. Right from planning to the end we were guided by Serene East Africa Safaris. I must admit the planning and advise was flawless. The guide, transport, boarding and lodging were really good. The weather was awesome through out our travel. Yes we were disappointed for not being able to see the famous migration but had been advised in advance that due to abundant rains migration was likely to commence only in July. But we were happy to see abundant wildlife and our guide Peter was simply superb and patient with our queries.
A little disappointed with Nairobi due to its notorious traffic but Giraffe Center was awesome.
Overall I would say that a visit to Kenya for Safari experience is highly recommended .

I had dreamed of browsing the immensities of the bush to discover the wildlife in its natural environment.
I was able to realize it with a very experienced guide. All the people we met were welcoming and friendly.
The accommodation of very good level and the delicious food.
Everything to make this trip unforgettable.
Only downside, the cost of this trip ... a little expensive...

Fantastic

We really enjoyed the whole trip! We saw so many animals! This included a lot of big cats which are my favorite. All the people there were nice and the entire trip had a good vibe. The tent camps as well as the lodges were great! Clean and fantastic settings. Charles our guide from Classic Journeys was great as well. He knew the area and the animals and was always aiming to please. We had hesitated to book a trip on line and with a company not based in the US but everything went smoothly. The only thing I would change are the roads! Even the main roads are very very rutted and hard to travel. Doing it again I would fly between parks where it was feasible instead of driving. I have done both ways and flying is the way to go. I suggest going to Kenya to everyone I know. It is one of my favorite places in the world. I miss all the animals and the kind people!!!

I was in a budget safari but it was not so comfortable, not electricity even at night, very poor and bad packedlunch, not a window for everybody, not a lot of interest of the driver/guide, but even that I enjoyed my stay

We enjoyed Kenya wildlife.

Loved seeing and learning about the wildlife. Since that was our purpose and goal for the trip, Kenya surpassed our expectations in that area. There was an abundance of wildlife at all the locations visited and we would not have skipped anything on our itinerary except for Lake Bogoria. Masai Mara, Ambroselli, and Lake Nakura were our favorites,
Most accommodations were adequate.
I did not think Kenya or its wildlife parks were tourist friendly. The lack of bathrooms was surprising.
Mixed review for tour company and guide. They kept changing our lodging and trying to give us lesser quality lodging. Guide knew a lot about wildlife but would only share what was specifically asked. I felt like I had to fight to get all that was included on the itinerary either to save money on park admission or make the job easier for the driver/guide. Driver had very good driving skills.
High pressure sales tactic used at rest stops which were not appreciated.

My family and I visited Kenya in early 2018 and we absolutely loved every single bit of it. We went to Masai Mara, Amboseli and Nakuru and got to see all the big five animals multiple times. In fact, we saw most of the wildlife present apart from a cheetah ( which was sad)

Jeoffrey as our guide and travel companion was exceptional and James was a wonderful host. Jeoffrey is very friendly, accommodating and went out of his way to make the trip memorable for us.

I wish I could give a 4.5 rating ! The only reason I wouldn’t give a solid 5 is I wish the windows in the Jeep would have been a bit bigger that would have made watching the game reserve a bit easier !
