Masaai Mara Safari
The pickup was seamless
The drive took 8.5 hours as we got stuck in Mud after entering very rough Terrain in the Mara and it’s a single lane hi way with numerous stops for random construction
Every tour driver stops to help the stranded driver
Nice when we got stuck but after three others got stuck it wasted 2-3 hours of day1
Unfortunately the roads were so bad that in no time my back was out of sync
The rest of the two days was at the wonderful lodge getting pampered by the staff as the only guest on the premises.
The ride back was equally long but after complaining a lot I was given the front seat
Also asked for a refund for the 2 Nd day entry which was given unwillingly
Take the LandRover or Jeeps DO NOT take the MINI VANS
They are uncomfortable unreliable and the drivers are a clique
Ensure you enter the park all 3 days as the charge is

for 24 hr entry from first entryThis tour Co only entered the park in the first 24 hours and pocketed $80 USD for 7 passengers
Would not use them again

An incredible experience
Had an amazing time on safari in Kenya with Beacon Safaris! Our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable and we enjoyed the beautiful wildlife, scenery and country. Highly recommended

Colors beautiful and lodges wonderful but deception for big cats
All perfect except the weather (too much rain so grass high and dificult to see lions cheetahs and leopards... ). All zebras, and antilopes are outside the reserve of Maasai mara or Mara Triangle because of high grass (too dangerous)
Maasai Mara is not well done because very expensive and complicated to change from a reserve to another (and not posible to stay for watching animals when we crossed the Noth Conservancy, this is a very bad point: a chetah was hunting and the guide did not want to satay because he was afraid of the penality...)
Guide (Stephen) not very good and we had to change him 2 days before the end of the Maasai Mara tour.

It was amazing experience in my life.
It was great chance to see the lions. I could see total 6 lions at Nairobi national park. I cannot forget that spectacles as long as I live.

Once in a Lifetime to see Incredible Animals
Spirit of Kenya was a fantastic experience. From start to finish they were responsive, professional, experienced, and knowledgeable. The vehicle was comfortable and was worth the upgrade to the Land Cruiser. This was especially felt during our long drives (5hrs) between the parks. But also provided us the opportunity to see Kenya outside of the tourism. Our guide Bonnie was fun, respectful, and experienced. We would happily work with him again and recommend him to anyone. The accommodation was unforgettable (specifically Enashipai Resort & Spa). We saw 4 of the big 5 on our various drives. Including lion cubs and a hunt/kill. I genuinely believe we would not have seen all of these without Bonnie. We were often the first car to arrive at an animal location.

good experience
We enjoyed most aspects of the trip. Would have liked to spend a little more time when we saw a male lion, but driver was not interested.

What a fantasitc trip!
Great hotels with nice people surrounds you, nice driver provides good service to us. All animals are amazing and so close to the window. We saw the big 5, special 5，and much more more. We learned so much about the animals and their behaviors, because our driver Mike was so knowledgable. We saw lions were hunting a zebra. We saw a big group of elephants and with sunrise when doing ballon safari.
Sino Africa is really outstanding, and we had lifetime experience.

tour is good,but food and companyis bad
Amboseli is not so good.
It has many elephants ,but others are not so many.
And my tour company is really really the worth.
They told me that I could pay all of price by cresit card,but actually it could do for only deposit.
And they did not tell me the fee of cresit.
And they said water was included,but actually not.
And food was bad, There were always flies around the dishes.
The guide of the lake Nakuru and Amboseli was also the worst.
He was often late ,and could not find the wild animals.
And,when he took me the next place,he dropped off many times because he wanted to buy goods.
So, I have less time to see the wild animals.
I appreciate my tour mates because they could find more animals than his.

Above expectations
We experianced a perfectly organized safari. Very kind people (guide/travel agent/locals) and beautiful wildlife.
If we need to point out some down sides, than its the cancellation of our last stay due to heavy rain. So we stayed in a bit more crowded lodge.
And the lunch boxes were not very varied. But this is just a minor.
