Kenya User Reviews

is another world

Kenya is a fascinating experience, it allows you to get to know a reality very different from the European one. The management of the natural parks is very good although very expensive and certainly their landscapes are very great and the drivers (at least the one that touched us) expert when it comes to locating animals (lions, cheetahs, rhinoceroses).

DRIVERS IN KENYA should be more careful when driving. I was really scared many days because the way of driving there is horrible.

Beautiful country with many animals

Kenya is a very beautiful country with many animals. We were able to spot many animals and had a great experience. The guides keep each other informed where the wild animals can be found. It is definitely recommended to do this with a guide because Masai Mara is very large. We stayed in a lodge just outside the NP and that was a super nice lodge. Kenya definitely worth going to.

A place makes me makes me want to visit again

I still could not believe it that I brought my flight tickets two weeks after got back from Kenya. Why? Just wish had more time to explore more and enjoy the wild and safari game, also the beautiful and cozy camp sites. This is my first trip ever to Africa, and it totally opens a new door of new world to see for me. The landscape and wild life are amazing, and what's even better is that I can enjoy the wild but with well developed accommodations in the wild. kenya is the perfect start point for someone who never been to African and experienced Safari, because it's not that huge in distance between park, even driving are tolerable, and the accommodations business are mature with more options, also most importantly, high density of wild life in Masai Mara, and unique Amboseli to see the wild life with beautiful Mt. Kilimanjaro in the background.

Fantastic safari destination which should be more welcoming at the airport and SGR train station

Taita Hills Conservancy is exceptionally well maintained and has a low density of safari vehicles. Travelling by train in 1st Class was very comfortable but I wish we had been informed in advance of the extensive list of prohibited items, which includes Duty Free, and the corrupt security guards that look for bribes. Nairobi is great for shopping, but Kenya does not offer VAT Refund for tourists; venturing outside the malls for a couple of specialty items was very stressful. The hotels we stayed in were excellent and had a large variety of food options.

It’s worth visiting to see and enjoy wildlife.

It was a nice experience to visit and join the tour to safari. We really enjoy the all of the experience. However I was disappointed its weather in this season. We couldn’t see Mt.Kilimanjaro. It’s better for you to consider the best season.

Fantastic experience

Recently got back from a 2 week holiday in Kenya . We travelled around 6 national parks on a safari trip with Meektrail safaris followed by 4 lazy days at The Swahili beach hotel on Diani beach . All of the national parks offered something different and we thoroughly enjoyed everyone however the Masai Mara , Amboselli and Lake Naivasha were my personal favourites and the ones I would highly recommend . We did a lot of travelling about by road and really enjoyed seeing a different way of life . We found the Kenyan people to be very friendly . Nice to have the lazy days by the beach at the end of our trip o the lovely Diani beach . The only slight negative I had about the entire trip were that the beach boys and beggars in Diani became a bit tiresome at times making a nice simple walk on the beach or into town feel like hard work .

Beautiful Country - Lovely people - Eradicate Government Corruption

Enjoyed the parks! However, entry took 40 minutes of struggle to buy a ticket through the https://www.kws.go.ke/. Website kept erasing username and password. Visitors do NOT want to keep track of passwords. They want to enjoy vacation. Need to be able to just pay with credit card and there will be a record of the purchase for the government without all the hassle.
