Leopard at sunset, “Twister” radio chases, and the smoothest family safari imaginable
We travelled in February 2026 with Antonio Safaris for a 3-day Masai Mara safari plus 1 day at Lake Nakuru, staying at Sarova Mara Camp and Sarova Lion Hill Camp. We were a mixed family group (young kids + grandparents) split across two Land Cruisers with drivers/guides Anthony and Joseph — and they were outstanding from start to finish.
First, the people: Anthony and Joseph are genuinely warm, happy, and incredibly knowledgeable. Every drive was packed with interesting facts, patient Q&A, and little extras like Swahili words for our son. They also had a brilliant way of making sure everyone felt looked after — constantly checking on the grandparents, offering stops when needed (including toilet breaks), and adjusting the pace so the trip felt smooth and stress-free.
The guiding skill was next level. We watched them track footprints in the dirt, spot tiny distant movement, do a lightning-fast binoculars check to confirm the animal… and then calmly (or sometimes hilariously urgently) reposition to get us the best view. If you’ve ever wanted that “we’re in a wildlife documentary” feeling — this was it. They also always gave us as much or as little time as we wanted at each sighting, never rushing us.
Logistics were seamless. They know everyone, so checkpoints and moving around the parks felt effortless. They were also punctual to the minute, waiting outside for the earliest starts — including full-day safaris with picnic lunches — which meant we maximised game time, not admin time.
The Land Cruisers were excellent: clean, comfortable, large viewing windows, and a pop-up roof for standing. The driving felt safe and as smooth as possible (bumps are unavoidable — it’s a safari!) and they clearly knew the quickest and best routes between camps. Best touch: a cooler stocked with ice-cold water, soft drinks and beers, which was perfect after long drives.
Now the moments we’ll never forget. Anthony and Joseph worked tirelessly to help us see everything — not just the Big Five. More than once they’d hear something on the radio and suddenly we’d be racing across the savannah to a sighting — like a scene out of the movie Twister. Because of that constant coordination, we were first on site about 90% of the time for rare moments (lions eating/drinking, rhino groups, elephant mothers and babies), often getting a silent 10 minutes alone before 15+ other vehicles arrived.
We saw countless zebras, giraffes, elephants, rhinos, cheetahs, hippos and lions (including lions with their kills). And the highlight: the leopard. We thought it just wasn’t going to happen — but Anthony and Joseph were adamant. They kept working the radios right up to the final sunset moments of our last drive, and then… a leopard in a tree. Absolute magic.
Finally, value. We did a lot of research before booking, and this was amazing value compared with other operators — and even when we chatted with other groups at the camps, we consistently felt our team went that step above. Also worth saying: no hidden upsells, no commission-style tourist stops — just a brilliant safari with clear, prompt communication by email before we arrived.
Book Antonio Safaris if: you’re travelling as a family of all ages, you’re a large group needing multiple vehicles, you’re a first-timer with a camera phone, or you’re a serious wildlife spotter/photographer who wants the best possible positioning, lighting and patience at sightings.
If you can, request Anthony and Joseph — they made this trip unforgettable. Highly, highly recommended.

A perfectly arranged and meticulously cared-for journey.
The entire journey was absolutely perfect. During our 8-day safari, we witnessed many precious scenes, such as lions hunting and feeding. Throughout the trip, our guide Evan demonstrated remarkable skills in locating animals and off-road driving. In some instances, he often managed to secure us a prime spot for viewing. At the end of each day, he would clean the vehicle, ensuring a clean environment throughout the entire journey.

The consultant perfectly arranged everything.
I love this journey cz the guide Mike and the consultant Edna are considerate to arrange the whole schedule perfectly, and we saw the elephant beneath the mountain Kilimanjaro. I have to say that view is beyond impressive! Everything you need Edna is willing to help and will kindly make a reply immediately. Love those two guys!
