Excellent private safari with great value for money and unforgettable wildlife moments
Before choosing Enkarewa, we contacted several safari operators in Kenya. We finally decided on Enkarewa because of their friendly and personal approach, the clarity in communication, and the excellent value for money they offered from the very beginning.
The communication prior to the trip was very smooth and in Spanish, which we really appreciated as we are not fluent in English. They were honest, attentive to our tight budget, and never tried to push unnecessary extras. On the contrary, they focused on making sure we enjoyed the experience. They even upgraded one of our accommodations compared to the initial budget option.
We did a 3-night safari (2 nights in Masai Mara and 1 in Naivasha). We were picked up early in Nairobi and already did our first game drive that same afternoon. The owner of the company, Nelly, was very kind and attentive — she personally came on the first day to introduce herself and present our guide, which gave us a lot of confidence.
We chose a van to reduce costs. It had a pop-up roof, but we would recommend choosing a jeep if the budget allows it, as it provides better access to more challenging roads, especially when leaving the main tracks. The van had a fridge, but it was not prepared for use and we did not use it, and the USB charging ports were not working, which was disappointing after full days of safari taking photos (fortunately, we had power banks). Overall, the vehicle could have been in better condition.
The safari was private (just the two of us as a couple) and conducted in Spanish. It was comfortable for us, although we believe that paying extra for a Spanish-speaking guide is not essential if you have a basic level of English, as there is not constant conversation during the safari.
Our guide was Brian. There was a small initial misunderstanding regarding pick-up times, as we discussed it with the owner instead of directly with him, which created a slightly uncomfortable moment. Aside from this, he explained the animals and surroundings well and showed great dedication in tracking wildlife, especially lions, which were the animals we were most excited to see. He made a huge effort to reach them, even when road conditions were difficult.
We saw the Big Five, as well as cheetahs, leopards, giraffes, elephants, lions and lionesses, some of them very close. We also witnessed very raw and authentic moments, such as animals next to their recently killed prey or feeding on it.
One of the most special moments of the entire safari was witnessing a lion and a lioness mating, completely alone, with no other vehicles around. It was an intimate, natural and respectful scene, truly unique and absolutely unforgettable.
Overall, the experience was excellent and very well organized. We give it a 9/10, only deducting one point due to the initial misunderstanding and the condition of the vehicle, which could be improved. Despite this, we would definitely repeat with Enkarewa Luxury Safaris and highly recommend them.
My gateway to Nanyuki - Ol pajeta Conservancy
It was an amazing experience. Enkarewa Safaris delivered an unforgettable and extraordinary trip for my friend and I. Everything was smooth and well organized. From the moment I made my booking, the team was professional, responsive and incredibly helpful. They handled every detail seamlessly, making the entire trip stress-free and enjoyable from start to finish.
Our accommodation at Maisha Sweetwaters Camp exceeded all expectations. The tent was spacious, clean and well-equipped, perfectly balancing comfort with an authentic safari atmosphere. The food was delicious, fresh and offered great variety. The amenities were impressive for a camp setting, especially the heated swimming pool. The staff were warm, attentive and always ready to assist.
The highlight of the safari was the game drive at Ol Pejeta Conservancy. Mary was our guide, and she was exceptional—knowledgeable, engaging and determined to ensure we had the best sightings. From rhinos and lions to chimps and breathtaking landscapes, every moment was unforgettable.
Enkarewa Safaris curated a memorable safari getaway. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to explore Kenya’s beauty in comfort and style.

An Unforgettable First Safari Experience!
Choosing Enkwarewa for our first-ever African safari was one of the best decisions we made this year! From the moment we booked until our return to Nairobi, everything was perfectly organized — the airport pickup, drive to the Masai Mara, the game drives, and the journey back. Every step felt personal, warm, and effortless.
Nelly, the manager, was incredibly kind and communicative — she made sure we had all the details in advance and checked in throughout the trip. And Anthony, our driver and guide, was simply outstanding! He spotted even the rarest animals, shared so much knowledge about the wildlife, and was always patient, flexible, and friendly.
We felt completely at home the entire time and came back with memories for a lifetime.
Highly recommended for anyone planning a safari in Kenya or the Masai Mara!

Great experience with Enkarewa safaris
We had an amazing experience with Enkarewa Safaris. We spent 4 days (3 nights) in the Maasai Mara, and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
First of all, Nelly was extremely helpful and responsive. We were speaking with several operators at the same time, but she truly stood out. Even though we booked our safari relatively late, she moved quickly and made sure everything was arranged perfectly according to our needs. Within less than a week, she provided us with 2–3 different plans and helped shape the safari exactly to our preferences.
They are also completely trustworthy. When we requested proof of reliability, they provided all the necessary details—bank account information, a full itinerary, and references (all of which came back positive).
Finally, our guide and vehicle were excellent. We got to witness incredible moments—hunts, kills, leopards, lions, cheetahs. In fact, we saw everything apart from rhinos, which are extremely rare.
Professional and reliable
We are so pleased that we chose Enkarewa Safaris! Nelly arranged the airport pick up, amazing accommodation at Serena lodge, Amboseli and even our onward train tickets to Mombasa! Nelly was always warm and courteous with my numerous enquiries prior the trip.
Simon met us at Nairobi airport and from the start was warm, cheerful and friendly with our family group.
The two night, three day safari in Amboseli has been a magical experience. Simon ensured that we maximised our time in the park and saw the majestic elephant herds, hippo’s, hyenas, gazelle, impala, wildebeest, giraffe and Lions- to name a few. This has been an incredible experience made even more so thanks to Simon. A huge thank you to Simon and Nelly. We 100% recommend choosing Enkarewa.
