Sufficient
3/5

It’s difficult to leave a negative review after such a magical experience in Kenya—going on safari is truly unforgettable. That said, our experience with Hyrax Safaris was mixed.

While the overall trip was incredible, we found our time in the Masai Mara to be underwhelming due to our guide/driver. Unfortunately, he was largely uncommunicative and disengaged. He rarely spoke to us or offered insights about the wildlife, which left us feeling disconnected from the experience. There were long periods where we drove around in silence without spotting animals, followed by sudden, unexplained changes in direction. We often felt unsure of what was happening or what to expect.

The most uncomfortable moment came on our final evening when he unexpectedly had us exit the vehicle at a riverbed without any explanation. We were then handed off to an armed park officer who led us on a brief walk to view hippos—and promptly informed us that tips would be expected. While the walk itself wasn’t the issue, a simple heads-up or inclusion in the itinerary would’ve made this feel much more comfortable and transparent.

In contrast, our driver in Amboseli National Park was outstanding—friendly, informative, and genuinely passionate about the environment and animals. His approach made that portion of the trip far more enjoyable and engaging.

With a few changes in guide communication and professionalism, this could have been a flawless experience.

Epic adventure, good people!
5/5

We hiked Mt Kenya over 4 days. The whole experience was such a good adventure. The guides and porters were all so friendly and went out of their way to make sure you had a good time. Our main guide Dan was really helpful and generous. There were other hikers and groups around on the mountain but it didnt feel too busy which can take away from the sense of remotness and adventure. As I mentioned we hiked it over 4 days, I would suggest doing it over 5 days to help with the acclimatisation as we definitely felt it.

Hyrax were a great company, Irene always responded prompting to our emails and requests. They also dropped us to the airport at the end of the trip which we hadn't expected.

Thank you for an amazing experience and looking after us so well!

Great experience
5/5

Amazing 6 days with Hyrax safari! We went to Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli. We had a wonderful time there. Communication with Irene is smooth and transparent. We enjoyed game safari, stay and food. It was a lifetime experience!

Great, well-organised safari
5/5

We did a five day safari with Tony, organised by Emmah - both of whom were super accommodating and helpful. We really enjoyed our mix of accommodations, and got to see some incredible diversity of landscapes (woodlands, grasslands, lakeside).

Maasai Mara 4 day tour
5/5

We did a 4 day Maasai Mara tour booked through Hyrax. Our guide for the tour, Kasaine, was great - he knew the park well and had extensive knowledge of the animals. Our accommodation, Enkorok Safari Camp (not Enkorok Mara Camp which is adjacent), was everything we could ask for - close proximity to the park entrance, nice lodgings, friendly staff and the food was good including vegetarian options. Communications with Hyrax before our tour was easy with a quick response time to our queries.
Would recommend all of the above for a safari trip to the Maasai Mara.
