We were in Kenya from Jan. 24 through Feb. 3 this year. I fell in love with everything about Kenya. The beauty, the people, the perfect weather (especially since we were missing the vortex in Chicago) and especially our fantastic safari trip through Savannah Sound Safaris. Our guide Sammy picked us up at the airport in Nairobi Thursday night and was our driver, taking us to a few fun places, on Friday. We left for a 6 day safari to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli on Saturday morning. Except for the fact that Kenya's roads are the WORST (mostly unpaved), it was an experience of a lifetime. Sammy was the best guide. I felt like we were in the middle of our own National Geo documentary he was so knowledgeable of not only the wildlife, but the people, the weather, the politics, everything Kenya and Africa imaginable. We saw all Big 5 within our first day of the safari. All of the lodges we stayed at were gorgeous, the food was great. After our return from the safari we spent

another 3 days in Kenya. We booked two tours through One Horizon Outreach program and had the most wonderful time. The first day we visited a couple of Masai, spending the day with the women, making bracelets, sharing tea and donuts and hearing their life stories. The next day we spent the day with some grandmothers and the pigs they are raising for sale(their "bank"). We got to hold baby piglets, feed the bigger pigs and then made their special chipati bread which we shared while drinking tea and talking to the wonderful, brave grandmothers. The whole trip to Kenya was magical and I would highly recommend it. Also, I would highly recommend Savannah Sound Safaris, not only for safari, but just to have as a driver/guide while visiting Kenya itself. I felt very safe, both with Sammy and with Steve who was our driver the last night there and again to go to the airport for a very early flight to South Africa. I would go back to Kenya in a heartbeat if I could.

My friends and I (total of 3 persons) have traveled to Kenya in late February 2019 for a 4-day trip, including Masai Mara park and Maji Moto Eco Camp nightstand, which was absolutely terrific. Nadzua was so smooth and helpful in solving any of the questions that I had, hence without any hesitation, I am happy to recommend BuyMore Adventure as your safari operator.

We had an amazing time on a 4 day safari with Tanke Travel. Caroline was very helpful, answered all our questions before hand and arranged us Beautiful resorts to stay in. She was helpful from the very start to the end of safari, she took care of everything. We hired the more expensive private 4x4 jeep but it was well worth it. Our driver Kevin was fabtastic, he was punctual, friendly, patient, took us to all the great spaces to see the animals and had great music. We saw lionesses, elephant, zebra, giraffe, hippo, wilderbeast, jackels, wild dogs, hyenas, different birds and caught a glimps of a rhino. The resorts were also beautiful. We highly recommend Tanke travel! Thank you

We went 3 people in a private 13 day safari with the company Australken. We visited Samburu, ol pejeta, aberdare, lake naivasha, maasai mara, lake nakuru and lake bogoria. Arranging the trip according to our wishes went smooth, Zippy responded quickly and were happy to let us tailor the itinerary. She repeatedly checked up on us during the trip to ensure that everything was fine. Our guide Symon had great knowledge about the flora and fauna of our destinations. He made a big effort that left us very happy with the trip. I can without any doubt recommend Australken to others, and will gladly use their services again should i return to the area

This year I came to Africa for the first time and We did the best 5-days safari-trip with Jocky tour. The safari was great, we have seen so many animals i mean all 5 big and others. Our guide Isaac was the best, he was fun and very experienced and did everything to make some good memories for us! The Camp where we stayed was very cool and especially for the night to feel safe! Everything was like 5 star hotel. Totally recommended.

Wildlife is wonderful and animals suprisingly daring in nature parks. It makes possible to do excellent photos and enjoy wildlife's every-day-life. The landscape is also amazing, but local villages, markets and road sides are dirty - lots of garbage everywhere. Hotels were clean and staff friendly. Food is usual. We had good food during two week travel in Kenya only in one restaurant. Especially desserts are not kenyan strong side. Local roads are in terrible conditions, but we enjoy rough trips. Houses, clothing and lifestyle in Kenya is still quite authentic in countrysides. We enjoy naturalness and originality more than european-style resorts.

This was an extraordinary trip, a 7 day Safari to Maasai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli and Tsavo.
We were much more than pleased by our experience, the beauty of Kenya, his people and the wildlife.
Really big koodos to Mike-Mike, our guide and driver for the week and the owner of Best Memory Safaris, Isaak.
Both of them did a fabulous job. Hope to go back!

It is just great to drive through these parks, in the early morning or late evening hours and witness the beauty of the nature.

Amazing 4-day solo safari to Amboseli, Tsavo West, and Tsavo East

I went on a 3-nights/4-days solo safari to Amboseli, Tsavo West, and Tsavo East with Bigmac Africa Safaris.
The tour consultant, Magdalene, did an excellent job in arranging the itinerary. My driver, Ben, did an amazing job of providing some extraordinary experiences on the tour. The roof-top safari van was ideal for the game drives.
Each of these parks is unique, providing wonderful game viewing and stunning scenery. The lodges (AA Lodge, Ngulia Lodge, Voi Safari Lodge) provide adequate accommodation, very good food buffets, and panoramic views of wild life. The tour met all my expectations and I am already thinking of the next one. Big thanks to Bigmac Africa Safaris, who will be hearing from me soon.
