Bucket list experience
If you're on the fence about whether or not to go to Kenya just do it. You will love it. It's great experience. The hospitality is great. The wildlife is majestic and the air is mara is so fresh that it'll change the way you feel about air itself.

Asante
I loved the Safari experience, it was not even the season and it was fantastic, seeing the animals but also the landscape in the mara reserve was mind blowing. It was just a very relaxing trip! And Kenyans are generally easy going people.

fine, but we'd come out of such a good experience and Tortilis and found the place wanting. We stayed one night; in the afternoon of our arrival we did a boat trip round the lake. The main attraction I think is the hippos, but honestly, you could give the whole place a miss in our view. The next morning we left on another five hour drive to Masai Mara and the Governors Camp. Governors Camp is one of the older (oldest?) camps at Mara - it's a little tired, but the food and people were great and there an wildlife rooming through the camp (elephants, giraffe, wathog, monkeys and meerkats while we were there) so we had a very good experience. In Mara we did a full day safari and saw a huge amount of animals - the big ones we didn't see were Leopard and Rhino. I'm told Rhino are a very rare spot at Mara, but Leopard you can get lucky with.After a couple of days we left for Nairobi (to the Sankara), where we stayed a night and then left from Wilson Airport to Dinai Beach. Dinai Beach was great, and a totally different vibe to safari surrounds. Here we stayed at Waterlovers -nice boutique hotel (10 rooms?) with great food and other amenities (no gym though). We had a great time here for 3 days and enjoyed not driving around at all.
Overall, we really enjoyed Kenya, the people are great, the food we had was excellent, we weren't too threatened by bugs (there are a lot flying things on safari), the hotels we stayed at were really good, and we saw a lot of wild animals. If I had limited time (seven days), I'd go straight to Mara for the safari piece (and fly in there, to avoid the drives on very ropey roads), spend two days and then spend the rest of the time at Dinai.

A once-in-a-lifetime experience
Going on a Kenya safari is an unparalleled adventure that fully immerses you in the breathtaking African wilderness. Picture yourself experiencing the awe-inspiring roar of lions and encountering majestic elephants, towering giraffes, and graceful zebras up close on a thrilling game drive. Additionally, you can also engage with the friendly Maasai people, gain insight into their customs, and appreciate their one-of-a-kind way of life. Whether you witness the spectacular wildebeest migration or observe the Big Five in Maasai Mara, a Kenya safari guarantees unforgettable memories that will stay with you forever.

Welcoming and beautiful.
Our driver Yassin from Hyvens was so knowledgeable and accomodating. We were travelling with three children and the itinerary was perfect. All hotels were fabulous with excellent rooms, food and service. The whole experience was memorable and eye opening. The highlight was the morning sighting of a hunt on an early safari.

Mind blowing
The scenery and wild life are absolutely amazing. The trip was in April (the wettest period) but the weather was gorgeous.
At Masai Mara, you can see many animals in one day, we were lucky enough to see the big five.
Make sure you ask the operator the kind of vehicle they will use on the Safari. This makes a difference.

The experience of a Kenyan safari couldnt have been anymore magical.
A Kenyan safari has been on my bucket list for over 30 years and this experience excelled in every way. The guide was amazing, we saw a giraffe running, a young lion devouring a buffalo 10 meters from us, we had a hippo run to beat us getting to the river bank, we saw a baby rhino playing with his mummy, 2 lions mating, a herd of elephants walk in front of us then 2 babies come running out of the bush to keep up with them and so much more.
We went to Masia Mara, Lake Nakuru and Embossili - all 3 different and amazing in their own way.
The people are full on as they want to sell you every piece of rubbish possible, but there is also beautiful workman ship too.
Nairobi a big dirty busy city but a gateway to an experience you will never forget.
We went beginning of MArch and was dry but thankfully the last few days it

rained (we had also gone to Mombassa to a 5 star resort for 5 days) so when back in Nairobi we felt happy to see the rain as the animals needed it so badly.I will never forget this amazing trip and cannot recommend it enough PS you do not need to take US dollar lol!
