Beautiful to witness animals in their natural habitat

5 / 5 5 /5

If you want to know what it feels like to be an animal at a zoo visit Masai Mara. Sitting in a car surrounded by animals in their natural habitat has got to be the best experience I have witnessed. From a mother cheetah carrying her baby cub to a pride of lions feasting on a zebra carcass! Breakfast in the bush surrounded by Zebras to sundowning drinks!
The safari experience is hard to put into words so go and experience it yourself instead!

A wonderful experience in Kenya
October 2026
We are a group of friends who love to travel.
It was our first time visiting Africa—specifically, Kenya.
While searching for a safari, I found an invaluable advisor: Laurine. Talking with her helped me figure out the best way to organize our trip, and she immediately earned my trust.
Everything went exactly as planned, and at a very good price.
Our safari lasted four days.
We had an excellent guide, Vincent.
Vincent went out of his way to ensure our safari was rich in sights and wildlife sightings; he even navigated challenging, rugged paths to help us find more animals.
We saw many lions, giraffes, wildebeest, buffalo, a rhinoceros, impalas, and—remarkably—a leopard, which is quite a rare sight.
A visit to Lake Naivasha to see the hippos—which we added to our itinerary at the last minute—was especially lovely.
The accommodations were good and clean, with very polite and helpful staff.

Having a great time
Oct 2026
I went with 4 other family members the tour operator answered all my queries/concerns by Email very quickly. They provided an open topped 7 seater Toyota land cruiser which picked us up from our hotel at 0730 from Bamburi beach Mombasa. After a two and a half hour drive through Mombasa we arrived at Tasavo national park and began our Safari. The park is very large with many animals to see. At about 1 pm we went for lunch at the Voi game lodge ( What a place this is ) after lunch on for another trip in the park with many other animals to see. Before dark back to the game lodge for evening meals. ( food was excellent ) A few drinks waiting by the water holes to see what animals turned up. In the morning out for another trip to the park until late morning then a drive back to our hotel via the Masai community village. Just a mention before I forget our driver was very knowledgeable , courteous .

We visited Nairobi on our own, made a organized safari to Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli. We saw a lot of cats, the big five and a lot more animals. Further Weg made a organized tour to Karen Blixen Museum and Giraffe Center. I recommend all of the activities.

An incredible experience. It’s absolutely worth the journey to get there and every penny spent. The people are very friendly and welcoming. Every guide, campsite staff member, and everyone else we met during the safari was happy to share information and advice with us. The parks, especially the Masai Mara, are spectacular. As for the animals, all you can say is “wow”!

We did the Nairobi to Diani beach 5 day safari, you pay extra for train. We were astonished that we saw 2 leopards and a cheetah! And a rhino very close up in Nakuru! Definitely do Masai Mara and Nakuru. Amboseli is much less fast paced mainly for elephants and Kilimanjaro. Our guide James took us to the best spots and made sure we saw all the animals, he was confident at finding the animals with 20 years experience, even if he was shy, it didn’t matter as main thing for us was to see the animals and he was amazing at that. Make sure to bring camera lens and binoculars to see animals far away and for memories.

We spent our honeymoon in Kenya and did a 5-day tour.
Gideon, our guide, picked us up at the hotel and provided everything for us. He answered all our questions, not only about the animals but also about the country and its people. His knowledge as a native Kenyan was very valuable.
The lodges were all satisfying and the game drives were stunning. Gideon always tried to give us the best view of all the animals.
One lodge very spontaneousely couldn't accommodate us, but Laura the coordinator found a quick solution and we got upgraded to another lodge.

This was an unforgettable safari in Maasai Mara. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, with great eyes for wildlife. We successfully saw the Big Five. He drove safely and found perfect viewing spots for photos. Highly recommend this tour!

Amazing trip to Maasai Mara

I had an amazing time in Kenya! From the Great Migration in the Masai Mara to the incredible elephant herds in Amboseli with Mount Kilimanjaro in the background, every destination offered something special.

I went cycling in Hell's Gate National Park and took a boat trip on Lake Naivasha, passing hippos while African fish eagles flew overhead. These are the kinds of experiences you will never forget.

The guides were fantastic, the lodges were excellent, and the service was great throughout the trip. I also met many wonderful people along the way, which made the experience even more special.

Kenya can sometimes feel a little chaotic, but somehow everything works out. You get where you need to be, things run on time, and you get to see the incredible wildlife and landscapes you came for.

From start to finish, it was a fantastic experience. Kenya is a country I would happily return to, and I can highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari and travel experience!
