Wonderful Wildlife and Scenery that is protected and cared for
I visited Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. In 4 days (3 nights) using Balu travel. Isaac was my private guide and he was amazing. Besides having a hospitality background and gaming experience, he was a friendly and caring guide who made sure that i had a great trip. The hotel in Nakuru ‘Sarova Woodlands’ in Nakuru town was ok with very friendly staff, good internet and buffet restaurant (but no gym) . The tented lodge in Masai Mara ‘Emayian Luxery Lodge’ was amazing. All inclusive and fine dining, jacuzzi in front of the tent and very friendly staff. The two parcs had abundant wildlife including the famous big five. But also many other animals. The facilities inside the parcs are less than in South Africa (no picknick areas with washrooms). This is inconvenient when traveling the whole day. In Masai Mara we made a stop at a crocoldile walk-centre and at the airport for a toilet break, both locations did not have toilet paper.

Beautiful landscape, nice food, the people we meet were very friendly
We had a very good time in our safari. We went in Ambosoli and viewed lots of animals and the lodge (Elewana Tortillis) was a very good place to be. In Masai Mara we stayed in Emboo River Camp who's the best place we had in this safari. They have a very good sustainable concept with their own energy production, rational use of water for their garden and recovery of kitchen waste to produce biogas. In the Masai Mara we also had the chance to see wild animals up close, including a cheetah that hunted a tompson gazelle. During our five-day safari, we saw elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, hippos, lions, crocodiles, a cheetah and many other wild animals and birds. We highly recommend Betty and Amos for organising a safari. It's the first time we've had such a warm welcome. Their driver Ruben and their French guide Ezechiel also accompanied us very warmly during our stay. Thank you for the perfect organisation!

magical
Our ranger picked us up from our hotel bang on time. Salim he was brilliant. so full of knowledge. you could ask him anything and always bang on with the answer. We went to tsavo east and stayed in vio Lodge. On entry to the safari we seen so much . we done a 2 day 1 night safari which was perfect for us. cos as much as we loved looking at the animals I think when you see 1 elephant for example you seen them all. what an awesome experience a safari is. and we were very lucky to go on 1. Harri done the booking and he was always at the end of an email If I had a question. The lodge was lovely ideal for 1 night don't think I could of stayed longer to be honest. Rooms were clean etc but for 1 night is more than enough. the surroundings of the lodge is to die for. so much to see and so relaxing. food was nice. we had dinner and breakfast included but we had to pay for the drinks. I would 200% recommend doing a safari if you lucky enough. awesome magical experience.

Amazing
Incredible wildlife experience.
Samburu was the highlight.
Some poor service from our tour company, African Breeze - including downgrading hotels without warning to save themselves money (we were not offered a refund).

That was my favorite trip ever
Daniel was an incredible guide, and showed us an unbelievable week. My partner and I spent seven days on safari. We went to Masa Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboselli and Tsavo East. We saw 4/5 of the big five and so many other animals. The camps were modest, but nice. They all had a very warm vibe. The Red Elephant Lodge was amazing. Daniel could not have been a better guide. When we return we will definitely use him as our guide again.

Wonderful
We have completed an amazing safari and holiday with the help of Lisa and our travel guide Dan. Dan has a very good knowledge about the nature and the habitat also very good driver. He did his best for us. We have visited all 5 big, it was amazing experience for us. The choice of accomodation points that they offer also was so good and comfortable. Lisa from King Tomondo who helped us to organize a very best plan for a safari was very helpful and experienced person. She helped in every point that we need. We want to thank all King Tomondo crew for a great unforgetable Kenya Safari tour. Hope to meet again.
