A wildlife Lover's Dream.
I loved our Safaris. Our guide was great. Our budget tent accommodations were okay. You can't be a picky eater if you're going to stay full while in Kenya. We were offered a lot of beans and rice and vegetables. We saw the big five in our first day. I have to admit that the drive to and from Safaris where eye-opening experiences. The traffic is horrible and there is a lot of poverty to be seen. I wasn't prepared for that. We did have some rain while we are there. But for the most part it was dry and dusty. I've been called a bit of a whiner for not being ready for some of these conditions. It is truly something you need to consider before you go. But in the end, the Safari experience will be worth it.

of us, aswell as heaps of beautiful birds, and monkeys in the trees. Masai Mara a little busy at that time of year, but wow , we saw a pride of 12 lions along with cheetah munching its recent conquest. We also saw zebra and wilderbeest crossing the Mara river. We loved Elsamere at Lake Naivasha, go there if you can, to stay or just for a visit and tea on the lawn. Wonderful service and beautiful spot. We also enjoyed Green Crater lake walk and lunch right on the very peaceful lake at the end. Great value for money with this company and we would definitely use them again if we return on safari.

beautiful experience
I had a good price/value experience and had a lot of "care" from the person I have contacted by email. The safari was amazing the accommodation quite wild as I chose a cheap level. I would definitely recommend!

Amazing experience!
Our driver Jose was an excellent person and very professional. We really liked the company and its knowledge and culture.
I want also to say that the organisation and the servises provided were satisfying and well scheduled.
All the accomodations were fine, clean and in good proportion of quality/price.
We really liked the Kibo at the Amboseli park.
The only suggestion I may say is to overnight at Lake Nakuru instead of lake Navasha. It would have been a better solution in my opinion also for logistic reasons.
Nevermind we did it great, it is just a personal suggestion for the future to come.
I will reccomend your agency to my friends and if we come back or visit other places closed to Kenya I will ask you for a safari trip organisation.

Good experience, carefully select your safari company

from our hygiene...African Breeze tours wanted cash at the point of departure. I don't hand over many hundreds of dollars to someone on the street. I insisted on credit card, and they finally acquiesced.
If you have a bad back, this may not be an activity for you. I was able to keep mine in check, but it was difficult on the roads, or lack thereof... I wouldn't want Kenya to pave these roads, but perhaps grade them once a year or so...
If we had the agreed maximum number of people, and a more careful cooking/cleaning staff, the trip would have been excellent.

A great experience
I took a "6 days 5 nights Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli" with a company called "Africa Flash McTours & Travel". The manager, Mr. Peter Macharia, did a great job, looking after his customers, although there are circumstances that are a bit beyond his control.
A convincing example is that all the tour companies appear to have a system that tourists are told to hop on different buses at a set of places where they stop for lunch. This system initially confused me a lot as I thought that I would be always staying with one group, once a group has been arranged by a particular company prior to the beginning of your program. But, that was not the case. So, to me what Peter did most impressively was that one day, when he could not organize any other driver to pick me up from Nairobi to Amboseli, he sent in a car to just take

me there. Of course, a single passenger would cost his company slightly more than letting his customers sharing with others. But, to me this is the convincing moment that his is a trustable manager.I also want to mention is passing that a young driver in his own company, John, has done a great job! His English is excellent and he appeared to try to do his job properly, rather than trying to "cut corners".

Wonderful country, friendly people, Amazing landscapes
Wildlife in Masai Mara is rich, varied and spettacular; in land, the food is poor but substantial, while in the coast is better thanks the fishes; public trasportation is especially for local people and private transports are really expensive.
