Trip of a lifetime
We had no problem finding a company (Splendid Vacations) on safari bookings site that was able to match our budget and desires with the various lodges and their wonderful guides/ drivers.
We also had a snag where an appointment was missed and they made new arrangements to make sure we didn’t miss out on the Baby Elephant Orphanage. We also saw the big 5 in their natural environment, which was breathtaking. The wilderness preserves of Kenya are beautiful and an amazing treasure for the whole world.

Kenya was an excellent choice
I had a connection in Nairobi and Kenya Airways allowed me to stop-over for a week for a small increase in the fare. I decided to take advantage of this and booked a safari visiting Amboseli and both Tsavo West and East Parks instead of the more famous Maasai Mara area. This turned out to be a good choice because the 3 days of game drives in February were not crowded. Many times it was just the guide and me which allowed for some fantastic close-up encounters at stops along the way. I also had a couple rest days to enjoy the nice hotels and lodges I stayed at.
Even the drives to and from the parks were enjoyable. Passing by buses decked out in all kinds of fabulous decoration and imaginatively named businesses made the time on the road a pleasure. Most of all, I had really nice experiences with people and this most of all makes me want to return someday and see more of this beautiful country.

Best country in Africa ...so far...
I really enjoyed Kenya. I did a tour with Inspired feet Safaris which is a woman owned business. As a solo female traveller I felt that my needs were well understood. The safari was amazing. I felt safe and included in all the tour groups I joined. The wildlife was incredible and I saw almost everything I wanted too... missed hyenas and leopards but I know other groups saw them. I highly recommend both Kenya and the tour operator for travelling.

Great experience and wildlife!
It was a really impressive trip to Amboseli. The long trip from Nairobi is definitely worth it. You see a lot of nice scenery of the Kenya countryside and once at the National Park the four hour trip will be rewarded with an unbelievable variety of wildlife, incl. gnus, zebras, buffalos, giraffes, lots of elephants, hippos, monkeys and a vast number of different exotic birds. Amboseli offers many different areas from dry to green, from flat land to hillside, from savanne to lakeside, all within a short distance of game drive. It was a trip I will never forget, thanks to our driver and Kelvin, the tour guide, both of whom never gave up in their ambitions to find interesting places, natural wonders and wildlife. Just great! Not to forget the majestic Kilimanjaro being a constant background with its snow covered summit to everything we saw. Absolutely recommended!

Brilliant.
I had a thoroughly good time in Kenya it has so much going for it in terms of what to see and do and I found my safari competitively priced although not cheap.
There are two small problems though. One is that the food in some of the camps was highly repetitive. The other is my tour involved three different buses and drivers. It was annoying as I felt as single traveller I was being passed around in a way that suited the drivers and the tour companies - not me. I was just told tomorrow you go in another bus so there was no consultation which always annoyed me. Luckily the other people were good companions so it was not really an issue but imagine had they not been decent.

Kenya, wildlife around you
Nevertheless, our impressions changed when we started our safari, with Balu Travel LTD, which I really recommend. The places where we stayed, the landscapes and sunsets we saw, the amount of animals we could see, … everything was incredible. This

is what it comes to my mind when I think of Kenya. It’s true people is asking for money at any chance when they see white people, and yo need to say no no no a hundred times, but this places make Kenya such a good experience.I would recommend Kenya as a solo destination as well, as we talked with many people travelling alone. For 2 girls, it is also a safe place if you go on a safari there.

We spent 9 days in two different safaris (north ) with Amboselli, Naivasha, Nakuru and Masai Mara and south with Tsavo est and safari staying in SaltLick lodge . It was great experience!!! We were lucky with both of ours tour operators and their driver (Marurumi with Roby and Buffalo steps adventures with Patrick). Between both safaries and on the end we spend four days at Diani beach . Wonderful place!! I really recommend to visit this beautiful country with great people.

Vibrant
We were in Kenya for 14 days and loved every minute of it. The Kenyan people are very kind, the Kenyans are best drivers, very courteous to other drivers, they make it work.
The parks and wildlife are outstanding, every day we saw wildlife. We took the train to Mombasa, the train is clean, efficient and runs on time.
Kenya has it all..............friendly people, great climate, beautiful parks and wildlife.

Stunning Landscapes, Majestic Wildlife, and Heartwarming People
Our trip to Kenya was amazing, thanks to Family Leisure. They handled all bookings, food, water, and transit, making the experience stress-free.
We visited Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli, and Tsavo West. The drive between parks was long but well worth it for the variety of landscapes and wildlife. Masai Mara offered incredible wildlife sightings, with our driver Simon ensuring we saw as many animals as possible. At Lake Nakuru, we saw rhinos, and the large hotel was a great place to relax. Amboseli had plenty of elephants, and Tsavo West provided stunning accommodations with views of elephants and zebras from every angle.
Family Leisure made everything seamless, and Simon’s expertise made our trip even more enjoyable. Highly recommend booking with them!
