Balu arranged a well organized safari trip. Beautiful gamedrives with a excellent guide/driver
5/5

Morris of Balu Travel organized a great safari for a fair price. They gave us a choice of lodges and they were all wonderful. He also arranged SGR train tickets for our trip from NBO to Voi station ( can only be paid with m-pesa, not Cc. ). We did Tsavo East, West and Amboseli. Our guide/driver Junior picked us up in Voi, did all of the gamedrives and drove us eventually back to NBO. He is an excellent and safe driver which is very important regarding the challenging local traffic. During the gamedrives Junior positioned us every time in the perfect spot to see the animals. He was very punctual and maintained the car in good condition. We checked all boxes regarding the animal species we wanted to see. All together our safari arranged by Balu was a great success.

The Mara is incredibly wonderful!
5/5

We had a wonderful two-night safari to the Masai Mara. Communication with Morris from Balu Travel was smooth, and after some adjustments due to availability, we stayed at Emayian Luxury Camp — an excellent choice with great food, all-inclusive cocktails, and outstanding staff.

Our driver, Kasaine, a local Maasai, is exceptionally well-connected with other drivers and rangers, and knows the Mara inside out. Thanks to his expertise, we experienced incredible sightings. Just half an hour after entering the park, we were five meters from a pride of lions. By the end of our first afternoon, we had seen all of the Big Five and quite a bit more.

The next morning, we left before sunrise for a full-day game drive. Kasaine timed everything perfectly, allowing us to enjoy remarkable locations and wildlife with little or no other vehicles around.

The tour operator quickly assessed our application and perfectly accommodated our request for a phot
5/5

Our driver James was smart, attentive and friendly. He took us to all the photographic spots in Amboseli. Our 4x4 vehicle was spotless on every new game drive in this dusty region. I thank him and Balu Tours.

Fantastic 3 day trip to Meru NP
5/5

We were picked up at our accomodation early morning by our driver - Carlos. And we proceeded straight to our accomodation near Meru NP - iKWETA safari camp. Scenic drive by Mt Kenya.
Accomodation was beautiful tent with everything needed, pool in camp and delicious food. We went for few hour long game drive in the afternoon/evening. We sadly didnt see many animals but the sunset was beautiful.

Early morning next day was a start of full day safari again in Meru. We saw a lot of animals - hippos, a lot of different types of antelopes, hippos, elephants, rhino, lions... etc. We also saw a lot of baby elephants, baby giraffe and baby lions.

Third day after breakfast was the start of our way back to airport. Stopping for a quick break at the equator line. Our driver was very professional and knowledgeable.

A professional Maasai guide with a complete mastery of the Maasai Mara land
5/5

We joined the group tour as a couple, and he was truly an outstanding tour guide. We could really feel how much effort he put into making the experience enjoyable for us. In this kind of work, where you deal with nature, I believe that information and experience can greatly influence the outcome. Our guide, being Maasai, had not only deep knowledge and insight but also a personality that allowed him to build many friendships and gather valuable information. As a result, he managed to help us achieve the Big Five! (Of course, since this is nature, there is no guarantee you will always see them. But I am sure he has worked very hard, and will continue to work hard, to make such discoveries possible.)

There is one thing I especially want to say to future tour participants: please follow the rules he gives you, so that he can do his best in the best environment possible. It was difficult to watch when he had to gently, but firmly, remind members who broke the rules.

Thank you so much for such a wonderful tour experience.
