Amazing Trip for diverse group
My whole group found Kenya a wonderful place to visit. Facilities were great (and not just for an emerging market). Wildlife were fantastic. People were great hosts and always helpful.

Going on safari in Amboselin was a touching and moving experience, wondrous and awe inspiring.
Going on safari in Kenya was utterly amazing: the scenic beauty, the many animals I saw at close range, the lodging, the guide. Everything was perfect and out of this world. It really made me feel big and small at the same time. I would highly recommend.

Wonderful country, would come again
Great country and incredible wild life. Also, there are nice bars and restaurants in Nairobi, and the cultural life is rich and diverse. I would like to come back.

Amazing experience in Masai Mara
When we got there lunch was served and afterwards we left for an evening drive.
The next day we got up early to spend all day in the park and we got to see 4 of the big five. Rhino is very hard to spot, but we did see a leopard!
Our driver; Kikitou, went out of his way to make sure we could see as much animals as possible. He was the most positive and happy person, really nice to have such a great driver!
The last day we went to visit the Masai village. Those people try to rip you off, so be prepared. It was nice to see the village, but their attitude is not so nice, as they just want to take as much money from as they can. Our driver Kikitou made them clear that we had already paid for the visit and then they were ok, but still we had to buy the most ugly necklace to support them (they really try to manipulate you,

so you would feel sorry for them).Overall the trip was organised great and I can recommend it to everybody!

Bucket list come true
I found myself unexpectedly in Nairobi, originally I had come to Kenya for a medical mission trip but had gotten ill and had to cut short my time there. I love to do wildlife photography and wanted to see Nairobi national park and Amboseli National Park before I had to leave. I contacted. Wilson at Masai Mara train .He was available to do both safaris, he made the arrangements on short notice and I appreciated his flexibility. He was my guardian angel. As a woman traveling alone and having some physical limitations. Wilson was very accommodating. . I told him the kind of pictures I wanted, he and Rufus were so knowledgeable about the animals and the environment and very patient, making sure I was satisfied with the pictures. They even helped another traveler who was stranded. I was so excited to see Mt. Kilamonjaro and so many different animals. I was able to visit Tsalvo west Nation park,Nairobi National Park and Amboseli national park. Each was spectacular, beautiful and different. If I make it back to Kenya, Masai Mara is next on my list!

Very Impressed with the People!
One criticism: the transit busses in Nairobi that emit almost pure black smoke exhaust that's hard not to breathe in. That wasn't great, but everything else: our safari, the national museum in Nairobi, the US Embassy blast site & memorial, interacting with the locals (almost everyone speaks English), the entire experience was fascinating.
Some people say there's danger in going out at night in Kenya. If you're with the right people to guide you on where to go and how to get there, and you're not doing anything to draw attention to yourself and your group, you can go out virtually anywhere,

night or day. Just do it under the guidance of trustworthy locals and the experience is well worth it. Kenya really impressed us. Would love to go back again!

Absolutely the Best Choice For My First Solo Trip
I was excited and then nervous when I took the leap and booked my airline tickets, hotels, experiences and safaris in Kenya on my own as a 56 year old woman. It was my first ever solo trip and my first time to visit Africa half a world away. Kenya was AMAZING! The people in Kenya are universally friendly, kind and the best hosts I have ever encountered. So many people extended themselves to make sure I was well taken care of throughout my trip. Not only did I get to enjoy the scenic beauty and animals in Amboseli and the Mara, but the many Kenyans I met during my two week stay will live in my heart and memory for the rest of my life. Don’t hesitate just visit Kenya!

Safari like what you see in the nature documentaries
We had so much fun in Kenya. We had the best luck of all time and saw every animal we could possibly want on our 8 day safari. The tourism business is great. We felt safe the entire time. The service was great at all 5 hotels- we thought maybe it was a little much and that every time a hotel employee looked at you there was the expectation of a tip. So that was maybe a little pressure especially when hotels don't have ATMs and you're in the middle of a national park so you run out of cash! But overall, this was the trip of a lifetime and we had a fantastic time with AMazing Memories Safaris!
