Once is not enough.
We had been in safari before in South Africa, and I have to say that the animal in Kenya is much bigger in size and more vibrant in color. We went in July and the weather was beautiful. Nothing beat the hospitality of the Kenyan. It is a place that I would highly recommend everyone to visit, not once but maybe 2 or 3 times at least.

Great but way too many hours in the safari vehicle driving between the different parks.
Great wildlife and our accomodation, Losokwan, was above our expectations. Simple but we had everything we needed and the staff were very helpful and friendly. We very really in the middle of everything! Elephants and buffalos right outside our tent during the nights. 5 hours drive to Lake Nakuru from Masai Mara was ok and the lodge; Flamingo Hill was very nice and with a pool. Great staff. Wildlife ok but we preferred the open landscape in Masai Mara. 9,5 hrs drive from there to Amboseli; not ok. Exhausting drive through Nairobi and the camp; Zebra Plains Amboseli camp was not at all as expected. Dirty, dusty, hardly no furnitures and showed no resemblance with the pictures on their webpage. However, very nice staff. Wildebeest safari had a very nice driver but he was not really interested in what we wanted to experience. It felt like he rushed through the parks. All in all; a 5 out of 10 for the whole safari-experience. Sadly...

Safari experience is good but met an unfortunate scam from a local tour company
Safari experiences on wildlife, scenery and weather are good. Food are generally ok for all meals except for lunch, there is no option for lunch as it is pre-packed by the accommodation and it is always the same food despite from different accommodation. There are many different range of accommodation which I mostly enjoy except for 1 or 2 places that are too small but decent with hot shower.
The only disappointment I have is being scam by the local safari company which I paid 50% deposit (in March 2019) prior my trip (in August 2019) but the company was uncontactable, their website is down and various travel websites alerted about this company scam. I choose this safari company (Kenya Walking Safari Survivors Ltd) based on the good reviews given in your safaribooking website listing. I was pretty affected by this whole incident to be left stranded at the airport for > 6 hours and trying to make a police report and find alternative safari tour so last minute.

Awesome wildlife in abundance
The volume of wildlife in Kenya is phenomenal. The wildebeest during the migration is amazing. There is a lot of driving if you go to multiple parks but once you get to the parks it is brilliant. If you can afford a little more try to stay in resorts inside the national parks.

Amazing experience
Our Safari was amazing, we started at Amboseli with some amazing wildlife, hippos, elephants, zebras, baboons, ienas, warthogs, many antelopes and gazelles species and countless wildebeests with a great view of Mt. Kilimanjaro in the back, than moved to Tsavo west and visited an amazing location at Ngulia lodge where we were able to see a leopard feeding and the amazing rhino valley, one of the best scenery of the whole trip. We concluded at Tahita hills in an amazing lodge, Saltlick with elephants and buffalos drinking at the hole in front of the lodge. We licked all the accommodation and the people were very nice and welcoming. Plenty of food and a good variety. Finally we have to thanks Tammy Tours and Tunu that organised our whole tip and our great driver Rahim which was knowledgeable, safe and a great companion for our trip. Thanks again and we will definitely be back to see all other parks that Kenya has to offer.

I will come back
We went to Lake Naivasha, Baringo, and Nakuru National Park after Masai Maara, all were great with great access to wildlife, although I have to say Mara got everything going on there. We spent 7 days in Mara and it was not enough. Seen practically all the animals we wanted to see and by day 5-7, we wanted to see more of them again. Our guide were amazing and have an extensive knowledge about animal, region and the culture.
As a first timer, Kenya is very recommended, as our trip happened with ease and everything was smooth.

Excellent first impression in just a few days
I booked a 6-days trip to Massai Mara, Amboselli and Lake Nakuru. It is a lot of driving but the minibus was in a good condition and the driver was excellent. Accommodation and meals are simple but absolutely okay. The value for money is very good.
I travelled a lot in Africa but I never saw as much animals as in Kenia.

Great safari country
Fantastic. But more restrictions should be applied for the benefit of the animals.
