5/5

Communication was top notch.. the guides were knowledgeable and considerate- allowed a good mix of adventure and rest. Reliable and affordable. I’ll definitely be using them again next time.

Exceptional Safari, great guide, and wonderful accomodation, all perfectly planned and communicated
5/5

We had an amazing safari experience in Kenya with Iyanaa, visiting Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Our guide Jackson was amazing and always made us feel safe and worked exceptionally hard to find all the animals we wanted to see. We saw all the big 5, cheetahs, rare monkeys, hippos and a whole host of other animals.

The accommodations provided, Zebra Plains at Masai Mara, and the cliff at lake Nakuru were wonderful, and it was amazing everything was booked and paid for, including the park passes in advance, so we had nothing to worry about.

We also did the early morning hot air balloon add on and this was an unforgettable experience, seeing the Masai Mara from above at sunrise. We were able to see lions, giraffes, hyenas and even the great migration from the sky!! While there were some issues with communication and a last minute pick up from the hot air balloon company, our guide Jackson and Alfred from Iyana woke up early to help us resolve it and make sure we were on our way in time.

All throughout our trip, Iyana communicated clearly, and helped us resolve any issues we had that came up. We had an unforgettable stay and hope to take more trips with Iyana in the future - thank you!

The trip of a lifetime - Alfred and Jackson treated us like family
5/5


I cannot recommend this safari company highly enough! From the very first morning to the final goodbye, Alfred and Jackson provided an experience that far exceeded our wildest expectations.

Jackson: The Best Guide in Kenya
If you are lucky enough to get Jackson as your driver/guide, you are in for a treat. His experience and skill are unmatched. He worked incredibly hard to ensure we saw everything on our list—we actually spotted all of the animals we wanted to see on the very first day! He never gave up on finding the action, especially when he knew how much we wanted to see a crossing. His connections with the other drivers meant we always seemed to be in the right place at the right time.

But beyond the animal spotting, Jackson’s character is what made the trip special:

· Patience & Care: I was dealing with back pain, and Jackson navigated the terrain with incredible skill and patience.
· Joy & Enthusiasm: Even though he has likely seen a lion a hundred times, he celebrated spotting one with us as if it was his first. He took genuine joy in our happiness, greeting us every morning with a smile that set a positive tone for the day.
· Knowledge & Experience: He is an encyclopedia of animal knowledge, but we equally enjoyed learning about Kenyan culture, language, and even how to sing "Hakuna Matata" properly during our drives.
· Professionalism: He was always at least 30 minutes early, always helped in any way he can to make the trip smooth, kept us safe, and made sure we followed park rules. He was also incredibly thoughtful, checking our seats for us for any forgotten items before we moved on.

Alfred: The Master Organizer and Communicator
A huge thank you to Alfred, the co-owner, for putting together such a seamless trip. He was a fantastic communicator throughout the trip, checking in, and answering all my questions promptly. He went out of his way to ensure every detail was perfect and that the logistics were smooth. It is rare to find this level of personalized hospitality.

Overall, the hospitality and care we received were unlike anything I have ever experienced. They didn't just treat us as clients; they treated us as family. If you are considering a safari in Kenya, book with this team. You will not regret it!

Asante Sana, Jackson and Alfred!

Unforgettable Experience with the Highest Level of Care
5/5

We had an incredible experience with Iyana from start to finish. What really made them stand out from the very beginning was their excellent communication and their attention to detail. We contacted a few companies to explore custom safari options, and Nicholas immediately impressed us with how responsive, thoughtful, and helpful he was in putting together exactly what we were looking for. Their pricing was very reasonable as well considering a few quotes I received from various companies, and they helped ensure we were able to get our priorities and stay within budget. We went through a few variations and changes and they continued to patiently put everything together until we had the final perfect plan. Thank you, Nicholas!

Once we were on the ground, the excellence continued. Alfred took great care of us throughout the trip, with the same exceptional attention to detail, care, and communication we had experienced from the start.

And then there was Jackson, who was the best driver and guide we could have imagined. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, kind, professional, and his passion and expertise made the experience truly special. Thanks to him, we were able to see all of the Big Five up close right away! Some of our favorite moments were getting so close to the elephants that we could actually smell them, and watching a lioness with her two playful cubs. But there were really too many unforgettable experiences to count. Jackson's stories were also a highlight of our trip and I'm sure we will be remembering and recounting them for years to come.

We highly recommend this company to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. From the initial planning to the experience on the ground, we could not have asked for better. Our expectations were high coming in, and were far far surpassed. An absolutely unforgettable trip!

One in a lifetime experience
5/5

Iyana was outstanding from the beginning. Nicholas was very responsive and had a great attention to detail to make sure our itinerary matched what we were looking for. We booked late and they managed to find us accomodations that met what we were looking for. Our driver, Jackson, was incredibly knowledgeable and did an outstanding job showing us around, making sure we got great views of the wildlife while also being respectful and considerate towards the animals. He truly cares about wildlife and the environment and that's something I really valued. He also was very welcoming and made us feel at home. During our trip, Alfred was also constantly checking on us to make sure everything was smooth.

Iyana is a company that really cares and it shows. I would definitely recommend them for your Safari trip.
