The best thing about Kenya is Kenyans. Airport needs to be developed somehow to serve this amount of tourists but this didn't affect my trip by any mean.

Good experience, carefully select your safari company

We definitely had a good time on our excursion into the Masai Mara, and were able to observe all kinds of wildlife. Our driver, Peter, was good, and made sure that we were able to see things that many missed. However, our company, African Breeze Tours, stated that there would be a maximum of 6 persons to a vehicle. Ours had seven, and sometimes it became a problem with a space to stand and see. We were scheduled into an ecocamp, and were actually in Rhino camp. I understand that if a place is overbooked, they have to use another location. This one was good, except the power was only on for a few hours a day. I use a powered device for sleeping (apnea) and wasn't able to use it. Another problem with the place is that they wash the utensils and dishes in local cold water, and don't have a way to sterilize them. Some of us, including me, came down with severe intestinal issues. We were always careful to use bottled water for drinking and brushing, so it didn't come
Read more 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.

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.

Kenya has variety of parks and reserves even if you miss something you are eager to see you will definitely find it in another park or reserve

Amazing Experience - Migration at its Peak

5 / 5 5 /5
5 / 5 5 / 5 5 / 5 5 / 5

Possibly a bucket list thing to do which far exceeds expectations. Seeing wild life at such a close range is something to truly experience - however, the whole trip adds its own flavor to it. Driving through the highways or the uncharted jungle ways, adventure and excitement are always lurking around the corner. This was helped by a beautiful cool weather and ever helpful guide from KWSS .
You get the sense of safari from the moment you step into the safari car at the airport - which is basic but comfortable considering we spent literally 6 days in it. The accommodation even in the forest areas were clean and safe.
A lot depends on the safari company and the guide is what we discovered - it's up to your guide to go that extra mile to make your experience the experience of a lifetime - ours did.

Kenya with African Sermon Safaris

5 / 5 5 /5
5 / 5 / 5 5 / 5 4 / 5

We booked our trip with African Sermon Safaris with great expectations of a fabulous trip and African Sermon Safaris delivered! They seemed to go well beyond delivering the transportation and accommodations that they agreed to provide; they seemed to feel an obligation to deliver the experience. Even when a few small glitches in the itinerary developed (neither through any fault of African Sermon Safaris), they quickly developed a workaround that in some ways was even better than the original plan! Fabulous trip and no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Daniel and John (out driver) to anyone interested in the experience of a lifetime!

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 Kenya

We had a fantastic holiday in Kenya. Our tour operater Seven By Far did an excellent job. Well organised, and well executed. Our tour guide/ driver, Robin, was very knowledgable, kind and helpful.
Kenya is amazing. It exceeded our our expectations in its natural beauty and importantly in hospitality.
Overall, an unforgettable experience of lifetime

Great for a first time family safari combined with other activities

4 / 5 4 /5
4 / 5 3 / 5 4 / 5 4 / 5
We had a great family holiday with our 2 teenagers. Loved the experience of travelling on road through Kenyan towns with our guide David who worked tirelessly to ensure we had a good time and could fit in as much game viewing as possible. The van (which we had for ourselves only) was well maintained with comfy seats which helps on the very bumpy approach road to Masai Mara. David even washed the windows in the evening to ensure we had good viewing the next day. A really nice touch! Accomodations good (although if returning I would try to stay inside Mara not on the outside, but with 4 of us we were working to a budget) , and the company promptly changed it where it did not match the description in our intenary. Our cook Moses produced good meals and breakfast was much more ample than expected . Fresh eggs or pancakes (or both) every day! We loved Lake Nakuru, so scenic, we hadn't been sure whether to include this but so glad we did. We saw lions, and a rhino cross right in front
Read more 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.
