Our country was India.
With Tall Masai Safaris, we travelled around Kenya for seven days. Our country was India. From the time of our arrival till our departure, Benson from Tall Masai Safaris was by our side to make all the arrangements and handle any issues. Both the safaris and the accommodations were excellent. Our guide, Derick, did a fantastic job of ensuring that we observed every one of the untamed creatures. All in all, it was an amazing experience. For any kind of Kenyan tour, Tall Masai is a must-see.

As booked the budget tour, all nice as I expected. First time in camp, special and nice experience. All focused on Safari, and the Guid&Driver Patrick is really awesome.

The whole staff is fast-responding, dedicated, and attentive to details.
My friends came to visit us and told us they want to visit masai mara. It was such a short notice, but Benson has been quick to help out. My friends have special dietary restrictions, and TALL MASAI has made sure the right food was prepared for the 3 days trip. I am glad everything works out fine and gave my friends such a wonderful experience. Keep up the good job👍

Great experience
It was a very nice trip with a lovely group and a good guide! We saw all big 5 and enjoyed best weather also in April. The tour was well organised and they picked us up at our hotel and brought us back after 8 days. Perfect price/ performance!

This was a wonderful trip. Everything was arranged very well and full of warmth. Almost all the anim
My friend and I booked a four-day and three-night trip, which is economical budget, and the experience is great value. The itinerary includes Masemara National Park and Lake Nakuru. The daily schedule is wonderful. As a tourist, these days are enough for me to observe a lot of animals. Our guide Moses is very professional and careful. He knows every kind of animal, and he will park the car in a good position for us to see clearly. The accommodation, meals and rest arrangements of the whole trip are very good and impeccable! Have a wonderful Safaritrip with everyone!

Very good
- Good organized tour
- Friendly driver (Edward)
- First tent camp should be changed, nice people there, also food was good, but the the tent is awful.
- Maybe they could change the car, it was like a van. A real offroad car like Jeep would be a little bit more comfteble.

Great experience
We booked a 7 night safari to Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha and Amboseli with our family of five.
All in all we had a fantastic week with our guide/driver Clinton, who was a very safe driver and positioned his car at the best spots for close encounters with wildlife. At the first game drive in Masai Mara we even spotted a leopard, which is the most difficult to find. Clinton advised us to change hotel in Nakuru, as the City Max is below standard according to the reviews. That was a good suggestion, the Buraha Zenoni was very clean and had a nice buffet spread. Miti Mingi Eco Camp (Masai Mara) was basic but clean and food was ok. In Amboseli we upgraded to the amazing, very luxurious Kibo safari camp but we heard Nyati (more basic, in the standard package) was also good.
The safari tour is great value for money, but I advise you to check and double check with Benson on arrangements made outside of the standard package, i.e. booking and payment of accommodation.
Logistics with other guests joining the car is also a bit of a challenge, especially if they have other plans than you.
Would have given 5 stars if logistics and bookings were flawless.

Nice travel agent. The people are very nice.
The service was excellent, except that we agreed to pick someone up at the airport for free and subsequently asked me for a fee. The price was cheap, the accommodation was mediocre and the overall value for money was good. Recommend it!

An Awsome Safari Experience
Despite having minor hiccups on travel arrangements i.e. changing vehicles and guides/drivers quite often due to logistics and shared vehicles, all other itemised arrangements were delivered accordingly.
Benson is my point of contact and the person who made all my 7N/8D Kenya Safari Tour arrangements
Prior to making any bookings, ask as much questions as possible in particular any additional charges for changes or extras you have requested that differs from the itinerary etc. And if affordable, get upgrades from the tented camps that can be very basic from stay to food provided. Even with upgraded accomdations, that doesn't mean creepy crawlies or lizards are at bay, so be prepared.
My comment to the accommodation is please have City Max Hotel in Lake Nakuru changed to another option as the hotel is less than desired despite food was very nice with generous portions and its staff were every accommodating and pleasant.
After numerous of vehicles and guides / drivers changed, James Muteti, is my favourite as he is not only knowledgeable but also very patience and attentive. All gudes and drivers that I had encountered, had definitely went the extra miles to ensure that we see as many wildlife as possible.
Kindly also ensure you have all the guides' / drivers' contacts during your trip to enable any communications when needed. Also please bear in mind if you are not on a private tour, then you are sharing vehicle or transport with other fellow tourists. Therefore please be mindful and be punctual as when you are late, you will also delay others.
That's what happened to me on 2 days, on both occasions some other tourists decided to retimed their own breakfast holding back their pickups resulting in me waiting 40 minutes for mine!! And all these delays resulted in us cutting back on time allocated for other things in the day or guides / drivers driving at high speed or rerouting to catch up on the time in addition to arriving very late at another destination on travel days. So at times the delays are not fault of the guides / drivers but are other inconsiderate tourists.
Many thanks to Benson, and all the guides/ drivers on my this trip, David, Kennedy, James, Gabriel, Eric and Kim in keeping me safe and making my safari experience an awesome one.
