Amazing experience to see so many wild animals in a single location.
Like: amazing wildlife, spectacular Kilimanjaro scenery, clear Indian ocean waters with marine life and corrals, competent guides and friendly people, reasonable and clean accommodation;
to be improved: transportation infrastructure (took ages to drive from one part to another, some roads were so poor quality, looked more like off-road rally), excessive pressure on tourists to purchase souvenirs on the beach or national parks entrances

We truly enjoyed the beautiful people,the nature and its wildlife!
We truly enjoyed every moment of our safari. We had a 7 day safari with "Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris",with our 6 year old daughter and we all loved it! The communication,the accommodation, food, transportation and our guides was all good for us! Whatever we were expecting to see our guide made sure to see it and explain everything about it without even ask. Big thanks to Peku! He is truly a 5star guide with great experience and good vibe! A part of our trip we did it with David, also a great guide and we thank him a lot! Very nice people!
What we loved about Kenya of course was the wildlife but also the beautiful people! We’ll be back!

Awesome... must expierence one in your lifetime
We booked our 9 days safari from Kenya walking safaris ... the whole expierence was very professionally managed...Special thanks to Mr. Otineho from Kenya walking safaris...
We went to Samburu, Nakuru, Masai Mara and Naivasha... at all places the accommodations were very good... our tour Guide Mr. Benson was awesome... he was very attentive and took good care of us .... we were lucky to see the big 5 and many many more animals in their natural habitat ... the trip to Hells Gate National Park was a very different and would highly recommend it.
We would strongly recommend to book through Kenya Survivors waking Safari and ask for Mr. Benson as your tour guide.
Met many Kenya people who are not honest, always try to swindle money out of visitors
1.Wildlife is great.
2.No smog control on vehicles, therefore, air pollution is serious especially in big cities.
3. Met many Kenya people (people on street, Guide/ Driver, Park security) who are not honest, always try to fool you and swindle money or taking advantage of visitors. (Some women asked me to take ONE picture for them, then asked for US$20. Tour Guide said he has no money to buy me food/water after I had paid meals/water/tour to the tour company. Security at Masai Mara asked a tip of US$ 50 for a 5 minutes walk. etc.)--I have travelled many places around the world, and I have never met so many greedy people in one place!
Unique experience
There are not enough words to describe this fantastic experience. I have been to South-Africa many times and although I appreciate South-Africa a lot, Kenya and the places we visited (Amboseli, Nakuru, Masai Mara and lake Naivasha) are just better and more exciting. We went with Wildebeest Safaris and everything was organised into the smallest details. We had to worry about nothing (that's why you go on holiday isn't it? A couple of stress-free weeks) and our guide Geoffrey was always there to make sure things went smoothly without any hassle. For my next holiday I know already where I will go and with whom: Kenya and Wildebeest Safaris.

Kenya offers an abundance of safari options with a rich and diverse animal population. Equally as engaging is an afternoon spent with the people of the Masai Mara even if it did feel a bit staged and the sales pitch after the presentation was a bit heavy handed.

Fantastic Kenya
We have been in January that is a dry season with good view of animals. However the high season is from July to October to see the great migrations in Masai Mara. Much more people in that time, of course. Out prefered parks were Masai Mara and Amboseli. Tsavo is beautiful and the elephants get red because of the red soil. safari Lodges are very good, some luxury. Always go with a guide. Do not try to self drive - you can get lost very easy and fall down in holes or breaches. Guides have radios and talk to each other telling where are the animals. They know where they can drive and will take you to places you will not find by yourself. Go and enjoy!

Kenya is a developing country and in recent times they have upgraded their infrastructure and apart to it the Wildlife is very good in Masai Mara as well as the other lakes from Elementaita to Naivasha to Victoria. Highly recommended to visit this beautiful country for Wildlife safari.

If you are travelling to Africa for the first time and want to see as much of the wildlife as possible then Kenya is the place to go.
