Amazing wildlife and cultural trip
Amazing wildlife, with very beautiful landscapes. Warm people and superb culture. Only one tip: do not count your transfer times according to any distance (6-7 hours are usually needed for traveling less than 200km).

It was a phenomenal experience, exceeding all expectations.
Planning /communication with the tour company was extremely helpful, allowing us to plan ahead. Being met at the airport, domestic flight arrangements, lodges and hotels were great. Staff were very helpful in accommodating us regarding location of rooms and electricity through the night. Everything was clean and we had some lovely views. The safari outings were fantastic, thanks primarily to our guide, Moses ( a common name we know). He knew the territory, had a phenomenal ability to put us in the right place at the right time to get the best views of the wildlife, and kept a book handy to help with all our questions about both flora and fauna. Loved every minute of the trip and would recommend this company to all!

Fantastic experience. wildlife. food and scenery
We really enjoyed and the experience we cannot express in words. Watching the wild animals in their natural habitat was an experience. Weather was nice, food was great, all the accommodations exceeded our expectations especially Tsavo west. The water hole behind our lodge,in Kiluguani lodge, was busy whole night and we did not feel like to go to bed. In Masai Mara, Osero Camp, was inside the park and during night we could hear the killing and the struggle and the fights. Our tour guide Paul, Tukio safaris, was awesome. He took all the troubles to show us all "big five". we were very fortunate to see all only because of Paul. Only regrets is we couldn't see the river crossing.

Amazing once in a lifetime adventure!
Let me start with a little background. We originally booked with "Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris (KWSS)" in August 2018 for a safari to begin August 22, 2019. Exactly two weeks before our safari, KWSS sent an email saying they were no longer able to provide our requested service. Needless to say we were shocked and angry, and our confidence in booking on line shattered.
This was to be THE trip of our lifetimes, long saved for.
After deliberations we looked for another operator who could fit us in on short notice and conform to our prearranged flights.
It was such that we had the very good fortune to find Starluck!
Not only could Starluck fit us in on our original schedule, they were able to provide a customized

10-day safari superior to what we had originally booked.Given our previous scam we were nervous until we met James in the lobby of our hotel and he gave us a copy of the agreed upon itinerary, our lodge vouchers, and an explanation on how it would all unfold.
We met our driver/guide Kennedy the next morning and left for what would be an absolutely wonderful and amazing experience. We visited Amboseli, Aberdare, Simburu, Lake Nakuru and Masa Mara parks and preserves.
The accommodations were first rate and exceeded our expectations. The rooms were comfortable and the food excellent with much variety to choose from.
Kennedy was a superstar! He not only safely negotiated the chaotic and hectic Kenyan traffic and subpar roads with skill, he was very personable, friendly and courteous, and we learned much about Kenya and its cultures as we traveled.
Kennedy was very knowledgeable about the places we visited and ardently found the wildlife even the harder ones to find such as leopards.
Starluck, James and Kennedy saved our dream trip of our lifetimes and we are deeply indebted to them.

Love it. Masai Mara is incredible.
Masai Mara is beautiful. I love that Kenya is taking steps to protect its wildlife by taking a hard stance against poaching, against hunting safari, against eating / selling game meat. The animals in Masai are beautiful and abundant, you can see that they are living a satisfied life.
I love it, and I want to be back again.

Amazing!!
I visited to Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli. The trip was amazing.
I could see big 5 in one day!!
Animals with sunset and sunrise were beautiful and our guide, Sammy and all of staffs were very nice and friendly.
My flight was delayed and I couldn’t transit to next flight and I had to stay overnight at China, so my arrival date at Nairobi was delayed one day, but my tour company re-arranged my plan.
I really appreciate it.
I recommend Kenya game drive for sure.

Fabulous is what I can say, Maasai Mara is.
One of the best countries for wildlife viewing. The sheer expanse of Maasai Mara is breathtaking. The number of animals is simply mind numbing

Relaxing experience out of the main tracks
Very good and enjoyable experience in less famous and touristic parks.
Food and accommodation were outstanding as so as our guide/driver who drove very safe and ready to satisfy all our needs all the time.
Wildlife was not so abundant and easy to spot as in Masai Mara but we were aware of this so this was not a delusion.
Weather was also good, with occasional evening or night rains.
