Wonderful to see the animals in the Garden of Eden, a true paradise on earth.

My son and I spent three nights at Basecamp Mara. Our well equipped tent stood alongside the river and from our deck we could see and hear the animals across the river which was often forded by the baboon troupe who lived in the tree opposite. The campsite was about a ten minute drive away from the entrance to the Mara and was very well laid out with paths through the many trees surrounding the tents. The dining area was lit by candles only in the evening, the food good and the staff very attentive. Nearby was the fire pit and seating area where we could socialise with other guests and sample the local culture as we were entertained by the Masai singing and dancing. We were escorted around the camp site after dark by a Masai carrying a torch and spear!

Our driver/guide collected us from Nairobi and was with us for the four days of our trip before taking us back to the airport. George was an extremely good, careful driver who was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic and
Read more good company. He planned our game drives in the Mara well and we enjoyed a 'bush breakfast' and on another day a picnic lunch watching a group of cheetahs. The wildlife was plentiful we saw herds of elephants, giraffe, buffalow, wildebeasts, hippos, and at least a thousand migrating zebra who were making the way back to the Mara River and Serengeti. The big cats were much in evidence and we saw many lion and cheetahs plus hyenas. It was wonderful to be so close to the wild life who were unconcerned by the many people gazing at them.

We chose Spirit of Kenya because we were impressed by the clear and organised way they presented their initial quote. The office staff were very helpful and arranged a wonderful tailormade safari for us and absolutely everything went beautifully.

An overall wonderful experience in Kenya. It exceeded all my expectations. The people are beautiful, so warm and friendly. Our accomodation was fabulous and some with breathtaking views. So wonderful to watch the elephants while you eat your breakfast. Weather was mostly great. Hot sunny days and cool nights.. The animals were incredible and we saw them in the masses. The food was excellent and in abundance. Wonderful to drive along the highways and see how the people live albeit some very bumpy roads.
Kenya gets under your skin... I loved it!!!

Wildlife was great. Parks were open and you definitely had the feel that you were seeing the animals in their environment. Weather was great. Lows in the 50's, highs in the 70's. No rain. Driver / guide was outstanding. Road to Masai Mara was terrible, but new road is under construction. All of our accommodations were excellent.

I would recommend Back of Africa Adventure without any hesitation. Good and fast communication from the first email. For the Safari we used a minivan only for us (2 persons) and the acomodations were ok. The guide Simon was great and help us in any possible way.

I really loved my trip to the Maasai Mara Reserve! We had a private van drive us around the reserve and we saw sooo many animals. It was an incredible experience - one I will never forget. Camping just off the reserve was also great - they provided dinner and served beer ! Then we got up early in the morning for a second drive and watching the sunrise was awesome. Our guide was also so friendly and made our trip so fun. He let us stop on the way to the reserve for snacks :)

Highly recommend a trip to the Mara!

Everything about this trip was wonderful! My daughter is a vegan and the variety of food choices was good and plenty. The lodges were very comfortable and clean. We really enjoyed the entire trip. Our guide James was very helpful! Highly recommended! Samuel was very helpful as well organizing the trip!
