Quick to reply to my questions, Very Helpful team.
We recently embarked on a breathtaking 10-day Kenya lodge safari that encompassed some of the country's most iconic destinations, including Amboseli National Park, Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and the majestic Masai Mara. Led by an expert guide and surrounded by the comfort of luxurious lodges, this safari exceeded all expectations, offering an unforgettable blend of wildlife encounters, stunning landscapes, and immersive cultural experiences.
Our journey began with a visit to Amboseli National Park, where the awe-inspiring sight of Mount Kilimanjaro greeted us at every turn. Against this majestic backdrop, we witnessed herds of elephants roaming freely across the vast savannah, their silhouettes etched against the golden horizon during captivating sunset game drives.
Next, we ventured to the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, a haven for endangered species and home to the last two northern white rhinos on Earth. Our encounters with these magnificent creatures, along with sightings of lions, giraffes, and zebras, underscored the conservancy's commitment to conservation and preservation of Kenya's precious wildlife heritage.
Our safari continued to Lake Nakuru, where the shores teemed with a kaleidoscope of pink as thousands of flamingos painted the landscape. Amidst this avian spectacle, we were fortunate to spot both black and white rhinos, testament to the conservation efforts that have made this park a sanctuary for endangered species.
Lake Naivasha offered a tranquil interlude, where we embarked on boat safaris to explore its serene waters and lush surroundings. Encounters with hippos, giraffes, and a myriad of bird species provided a refreshing perspective on Kenya's diverse ecosystems.
The highlight of our journey undoubtedly awaited us in the Masai Mara, where the timeless drama of the African wilderness unfolded before our eyes. From the heart-stopping sight of a leopard lounging in the branches to the thundering hooves of wildebeest during the Great Migration, every moment in the Mara was filled with wonder and excitement.
Throughout our safari, our guide, Zack, proved to be an invaluable source of knowledge, passion, and expertise. His keen eye for spotting wildlife, coupled with his insightful commentary on Kenya's natural and cultural heritage, enriched our experience immeasurably. Zack's warmth, professionalism, and genuine commitment to ensuring our comfort and enjoyment exemplified the highest standards of hospitality.
In conclusion, the 10-day Kenya lodge safari was a journey of discovery, adventure, and profound connection with the splendor of the African wilderness. From the snow-capped peaks of Kilimanjaro to the untamed beauty of the Masai Mara, each destination offered its own unique allure, leaving an indelible impression on our hearts and minds. For anyone seeking an authentic safari experience that transcends mere observation to become a true immersion in nature's grandeur, I wholeheartedly recommend this extraordinary journey through Kenya's most iconic landscapes.Thanks Exciting Africa Holidays Office team too.

Not trustworthy
Treats foreign customers like an ATM. The attitude towards you dramatically changes before and after the payment.
1. Last minute itinerary change
Other tour operators notified me that due to the recent change in the park entrance policy, they only offer two-day safari tour. But Exciting Africa Holidays said their tour is three-day. To confirm this, I sent them an email and received a positive response, which influenced my choice for this tour. But, on the day of the tour, i was told that there will only be a two-day program due to the 'recent' change in park policy. That just spoiled my day.
2. Lying about drinking water
At the Nairobi tour office, I was verbally assured that the package included '1 litre of bottled water per person per day'. But upon my arrival in Masai Mara, I was told that there is no water to give us... I mean, why lie about water? If it's not included, just tell me, and I'll grab some in town! (fwiw, they did provide water at day2 after my complaint, but the emotional stress i had to go through on day1 was immense)
3. Lack of communication
They dropped us off at some random place, not the one we were supposed to stay at. We were totally lost. After I paid, communication between me, the tour operator, and our driver went from great to non-existent. If they had to switch the accommodation, that's fine, but give us a heads up! And there's even a signal in Masai Mara if you're with Safaricom.
When I brought up these issues with the tour operator after the tour, he raised his voice, telling me to send a formal written complaint. So here's my formal complaint.
This safari tour was supposed to be a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, but picking this operator was a major mistake.
For the record, I was more than satisfied with our driver Shadi, he was very kind and professional. I had issues only with the tour operator, Exciting Africa Holidays. (It seems like multiple tour operators pool the tourists and assign them to different vehicles)
