All know that Masai Mara is the gem, no doubt. But I was positively surprised by Tsavo West with almost no tourist, how nice it was. Tsavo East instead was quite crowdy. I liked very much also birding in Naivasha lake, many rhinos in Nakuru and hundreds of elephants in Amboseli. I did 6 national parks and 2 reservations and I still can not get enough. Kenyan national parks are amazing.

We very much enjoyed our trip to Kenya, particularly the safari part where we saw many animals including lions, rhinos, elephants, cheetahs and two leopards. The hotel staff were helpful and friendly to the kids. The safari was well-organised and everything went to plan. Overall we had a great time.

We loved our safari with Spirit of Kenya. We had lots of questions up until the day we left, and they were responsive and accommodating to all of our needs. All the accommodations were perfect - and we even went with the most budget friendly. We were quite surprised at the quality. The food was great everywhere we went. Each camp had it's own personality which was quite nice. For the most part we had peace and seclusion and were able to engage with other people as little or as much as we wanted. We also spent a few days before and after in Nairobi. I was a little concerned because news has heightened alerts. But we felt completely safe the entire time. Ubers were quite easy to get and were very inexpensive. And everyone was able to help with directions, tours, and bookings - even when I needed help navigating the Kenya parks website to purchase tour tickets. Super patient and friendly. It was a wonderful trip of a lifetime.

Kameraz of Afrika were great to work with. Our time at & Beyond Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp was beyond our expectations. We didn't know until after we were there that we were in the most requested Tent 1. It was rustic luxury, was private and had a wonderful view.

We had our own driver, Sam, that was great. While the weather was very wet and limited some access to certain roads, he made sure that we were able to see a great variety of animals.

We had a wonderful week. We started in Watamu with two days swimming and relaxing. Then we had a three days safari with Tanke Tour Safari. Our driver/ guide was really good, we saw a lot of animals. After that we returned to Watamu again. Another hotel this time and some days at the beach again before we returned back home.

Majestic and Magical
Overall rating

We choose to safari in Kenya based on some feedback from friends and family, and someone who had just visited the Masai Mara National Park. Their descriptions were so beautiful we looked into it. It was truly magnificent. We were able to fly direct from NY to Nairobi (a huge plus for us!) and experience five national parks. The landscape at each one was unique and different. We saw an abundance of the big 5 and more. The people, places we stayed, everyone we interacted with were just wonderful. We are telling everyone we know - it is a trip of a lifetime.

First of all we want to thank Sovereign Adventures for all the kindness they gave us and also for permitting us to do our safari by helping us to get our visa which was very difficult.
We had a fantastic time in Kenya with our guide Francis who was very helpful and knew everything about the trip, places , animals , countryside …. We will definitely come back to visit other places in Kenya and hopefully do it again with Sovereign Adventures and Francis if possible.
We went to Amboseli Park with beautiful views of the Kilimandjaro then 2 lakes (Nakuru and Naivasha) and we ended in Masai Mara Park. The hotels were very nice as well as the food. We saw all animals and plenty of them , this was a great experience. Everyone was so nice to us and Kenyan people were very welcoming. I do hope that we will be able to go back soon.

Ensure you book your safari from Karibu Safari. Raymond was the best!

2 nights spent in a luxury tent and 3 full days of activities, something to remember!

EVERYONE SHOULD VISIT KENYA

5/5

I went to Kenya as a volunteer , and I was with poor kids that were abandoned or abused. Although it was the sad part of our trip because you see a different world and my heart was breaking everything I was there, their smiles was making my day and made me happy.
After volunteering , we went for safari… Best experience ever. Safari in Masai Mara was unique. They say that it is a once in a lifetime experience but personally I can’t wait till the next time I will travel to Kenya and live this again
