We had a very good experience with Beacon Safari, Robert helped us to organize our 5 days stay and gave us always clear and prompt reply. The suggested hotels were good and we should gave a special thanks to Sopa Lodge that promptly advised of some forgotten items and our guide Carlos collecting them. Our guide Carlos was attentive, good driver and made his best to show us all the animals of Masai Mara. So we can say we were satisfied and would of corse recommend this travel agency

A complete African experience--couldn't have been better
As you know, there are dozens of Safari companies out there, and selecting one can be challenging. I chose Beacon based on a recommendation from a fellow photographer who has gone out with them twice. I am a wildlife photographer, and wanted to be able to take my time so I booked a one on one tour that included Samburu, Nakuru, and Masai Mara. I opted to take the trip that drove between destinations instead of flying. In the beginning, I thought my trip was going to be purely about photography, and I quickly discovered that this experience is about so much more. The drive times between the parks is substantial, but the experiences and things I saw along the way soon became as much of the trip as the photos of wildlife. Seeing the rawness of life there was jarring at first, but as time went on, I began to understand and develop an appreciation for what life is like for the people of this awe inspiring country. My guide Carlos was extraordinary. We had hours in the car together and discussed all aspects of life in Kenya and how things differ in the US. He took time to not just locate all the wildlife I hoped to see, but spent an equal amount of time explaining the subtleties and intricacies of surviving and thriving in this sometimes unforgiving place. We spent 8 days together and I saw everything from lizards to leopards, unusual birds, cheetahs, lions, rhinos, serval.......every animal I could have hoped for. Carlos was patient, knowledgeable, and truly enthusiastic about what he does. I can't imagine a better guide or experience. On the front end, Robert and Elaine took care of all the trip planning and details and were responsive to all my questions. My flight got changed only a week or so before I was due to arrive and I wound up with an extra day. Elaine quickly coordinated a day trip to Nairobi National along with dinner at Carnivore. These 2 details were arranged last minute, but handled seamlessly by the Beacon team and were 2 more very memorable experiences. There is nothing Beacon could have done better. Robert and Elaine coordinated the route, but Carlos and Africa created the experiences.
Thank you,

Very professional and well executed.
We had a 5 days safari with Carlos. Everything was perfect.
Carlos was very knowledgable about local culture and also about the different parc and animals.
He’s been doing this for over 13 years and really know his ways around the park and the best place to catch the animals at the right moment. In our short safari we got to see the big 5 and even more. We saw very rare animals sights and carlos was very good a predicting the animal movements according to the time and temperature of the day.
He also caught intererest in our taste of local culture and brought us to some local spots on demand.
The hotels booked by robert were great and greatly situated. The overall was very nice for the price. Everything was very clean and very « luxury » (we had a mid-luxury private package). Communicating with robert was easy and also accomodated us on last minute changes to add an additional park.
Thank you to beacon safaris and especially to our awesome guide Carlos !

Awesome experience
Michele and I really enjoyed a great 7 day safari with Daniel. Comms with Robert setting up our trip was also spot on. Highlights for us were Amboseli and Masai Maara - so much to see. Daniel was superb at getting us up close to animals as well as taking care of the logistics. He was very easy to talk with and we learned so much. We had nothing but positive experiences including accommodation, food and trying a little Swahili with the locals. Totally recommend.
