A very memorable Journey
Alice gives very detailed plan and quote, she always gives swift response when we want to change our route and help answer questions patiently.
Our guide Alex is very trustful and friendly, he planned everything well and when we go for Safari, he can always take us to a good spot to take great pictures, he knows great angels.
Will definitely recommend Morning Star to my friends.

Had a wonderful time in Africa thanks to morning star
We got the 5-day safari package from Morning Star. Alice did a wonderful job planning our itinerary and the whole safari experience. She responded to our questions right away and was very attentive to our requests.
We started our tour with Amboseli, and it was an amazing experience from beginning to end thanks to our wonderful guide Augustine. He is very social and friendly and a safe driver too. We are very happy with his driving skills and his knowledge about wildlife and Kenyan heritage. Thanks to him, we were able to see all the animals we wanted to see. He even taught us some Swahili slang.
Our tour started in Amboseli, and then we went to Nakuru and Maasai Mara.
Overall, we are very happy with Morning Star and how they organized our entire safari experience in Kenya.

Well organised tour operator
We had a fantastic time on our safari with morning star. At the start of the process of looking for a safari I received a detailed quote from Denis which we then tailored to our requirements. The communication with Denis was great throughout and he always got back to us really quickly when I had a query. The safari itself was amazing, really well organised and our guide Julius was so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. He expertly guided us at each park, we saw the big 5 plus many more animals. We did a mid range safari, we went to the Ark at Aberdare, Sopa resort at Lake Naivasha, lion lodge at Lake Nakuru and zebra valley camp at Masai Mara (luxury). All the hotels were great and as expected, with sopa and valley camp particularly outstanding. It was quite a lot of driving between each park however we do recommend doing the range of areas as Kenya is very scenic and we also got to experience seeing different town and villages on our travels. Overall I would definitely recommend Morning Star and if you book with them request Julius to be your driver and guide.

James was super pleasant, informative and went the distance to make sure we had a wonderful time.
Again, James was very attentive and adjusted to our schedule as needed. We were able to see the Big Five and the Ugly Five. This was my third safari and ranks my best.

Unforgettable experience
I cannot reccomend Morningstar enough for helping us live a once in a life time experience. Everything was communicated well and was smoothly arranged for us with no issues. Our driver, James was very passionate about his job and knowledgeable about the areas we were in and the animals we were seeing. He took us on routes away from where the main cars were going, which meant we saw Elephants and Rhinos close up, and other animals we may not have otherwise seen. He was always punctual and friendly (even at 6 am)! By the end of our few days with him, he felt like a member of the family. I would also like to acknowledge Alice, who was so lovely and perfect to communicate with and helped us plan the trip. Alice and James are truly an asset to Morningstar. I would recommend Morningstar to anyone who wants a stress-free and well-organised safari, with professional and friendly drivers.

Fantastic time with memories made that we shall cherish forever!
We have just returned (today!) from a 10 night holiday in Kenya where both my parents were born. It was their first time going back to Kenya in over 50 years!
We had a driver called James who took us out on safari and drove us to and from Amboseli National Park in his vehicle last week. We got on ever so well with him right from the word go and he became a good friend to our family. He was friendly, helpful, professional and reliable throughout. We even invited him to dinner with us on Wednesday evening along with Alice from Morning star.
Alice was in contact with my sister both before & during our stay. She was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and so easy to get along with.
I would like to thank both James and Alice for our wonderful experience and hope to see them again in the future.
One tip for others using the company for airport transfers, please allow plenty of time and perhaps ask to be collected earlier as our transfer was 30 minutes late due to traffic which meant that we were rushing to reach the airport before check in closed and under pressure to get there. Other than this blip, we had an extremely pleasant experience using Morning Star. Thank you

Unforgettable experience and great staff
From the moment we met James and Alice and throughout our time with Morningstar we couldn't have asked for more. Alice put together a perfect package for our family of 8 at a great price and kept in touch along the way. James was our Safari guide/driver for 3 days and he was brilliant throughout. Very professional, knowledgeable and personable and felt like part of the family by the end of our short time together. Would 100% recommend Morningstar and especially both Alice and James to anybody.

The trip felt authentic and not overly touristy.
My safari in Kenya with Morningstar was absolutely amazing! The whole trip was well-organized, with great hotels and everything running smoothly. The trip felt authentic and not overly touristy.
We met our guide, Willi, on the first day when he picked us up from the hotel and right away I could tell we were in good hands.
Willi really went the extra mile on the game drives making sure we got to fully experience the magic of the Masai Mara — all while being respectful to the animals.
Willi’s also super knowledgeable. He really entertained our curiosity and shared so much about the wildlife and local culture. It turned into such a cool learning experience!
All in all such a memorable trip. If you're thinking about a safari, I can’t recommend Morning Star & Willi enough — he’s hardworking, genuine, and clearly loves what he does.
