tour operator is super flexibel and our tour was magical

5/5

We had a wonderful safari that we would recommend to anyone. A special thanks goes to our guide Badru, who put in a lot of effort and shared countless exciting insights with us.
Already before the trip, we were able to adjust and choose the accommodations according to our preferences, which made the planning very smooth. During the tour, we made a few adjustments as well – Netherken was extremely flexible, supportive, and reorganized everything seamlessly.
We traveled as a private group of three, accompanied by our guide who was also our driver. With the 4x4 Jeep with a pop-up roof, we were perfectly equipped to experience the wildlife of Tsavo East and Tsavo West up close. This combination of professional organization, individual flexibility, and unforgettable experiences made our safari truly special.

Amboseli, Tsavo East & West 3N 4D

4/5

We booked with Ton as we were super keen to see Amboseli, Tsavo East & West. He was very patient in sending updated quotes and itineraries until we were satisfied with the final one.

5/5 Stars for our guide Ben
- Ben was a great guide, he was very chill, smiley & made us feel comfortable to ask for whatever we needed. He was a safe driver and was really informative along the our travels. Not only telling us about the animals we were seeing but even about infrastructure, rail roads, plants, plantations everything we saw he had a fact about which we really loved.

5/5 Start for the accommodation selected.
- We stayed in Ngulia Safari Lodge, Penety Amboseli Resort & Voi Safari Lodge. Really could not recommend these enough, Ngulia & Voi Safari had water holes where you could sit and watch the animals (Elephants, Buffalo, Pumba, Baboons, Zebras, Waterbuck & more), Ngulia we also spotted a Leopard feeding around 11pm. The food provided was of good standard, staff were friendly & accommodating.

5/5 Transportation
- Safari's are not easy with bumps and dust but getting into our van our first morning, the seats were spotless, they even reclined. It was definitely the comfiest van / jeep we have had.

5/5 Landscapes of the parks
Aside from these parks being home to many animals, the landscape, views and geology is so fascinating. You are witness to changing rocky landscapes, lava flows, springs, the views of Kilimanjaro and more! Ben was so great in telling us the history of the landscape and when the eruptions happened etc, as someone who loves geography this was fantastic.

3/5 Animal Sightings
- Unfortunately we were not very lucky in regards to seeing some animals. Of course we did our research regarding these parks prior to going and know that it can be more difficult to spot but I definitely wouldn't recommend this safari to someone looking for the "Big 5". We saw many many elephants which was amazing, loads of grazing animals, gazelles, antelope, zebra, giraffes, waterbuck etc but did miss some of the predators such as lions, cheetah, wild dogs, hyeenas etc. We were very lucky to see the Leopard at the lodge and also on our last day during our game drive in Tsavo East, Ben spotted a leopard in the tree and it was amazing as it was just us and him! We also visited the Rhino Sanctuary at Tsavo West and I was really hoping that with 140+ rhinos in a small sanctuary there we would see some but we didn't see a single one... this was quite disappointing. I think more communication between rangers & drivers could help sightings in this instance, it was our main animal we wanted to see at this place given the fact it is for Rhinos. The low animal sightings was no fault of our driver as he was always on the lookout as were we and drove everywhere.

2/5 Netherken Communication
- I think Netherken failed a little regarding communication. The night before it would have made sense to consult directly with the driver for the following morning, instead you are still dealing with the owner or someone else in the company and this made for a delay of collection by 25 minutes due to not being able to speak directly with our driver. No fault of his as he was on time but wasn't sure where we were located.

- We were brought to Mzima Springs for a nature walk, but our group left before us and then we had to rush the first half of it missing animal sightings like crocodiles and monkeys along the way. It felt rushed and frustrating. There was no apology from Netherken about this.

- In addition to communication on our last day, we had lunch included in the price we paid however we were told that we didn't by our driver. He then called the office and was told to let us have lunch and Netherken would have to call and pay the place directly... considering it's in our itinerary I'm not sure how this was missed or why it was paid twice? When I texted Netherken about this, they ignored multiple messages. It sort of felt like once you have paid they don't care anymore as they have their money.

Overall, my rating is an average, the accommodation definitely increases that average, whilst animal sightings and communication with Netherken brings it down a bit.

The absolute BEST. Can not find fault with Netherken Safaris. Our Guide Mahmud was brilliant.

5/5

The very best safari with the absolute BEST guide, Mahmud. He was very professional, answered all my many questions, went out of his way to ensure we seen as many of the wild life as possible, and we did. Wonderful experience, we have made a very good friend in our guide. We will definitely return using Netherken,
easy to book, friendly, everything ran smoothly. We will request Mahmud on our next trip. Thank you Netherken and thank you Mahmud
