Very professional, friendly, well-organized, safe
We booked a private safari with 2 people from Diani to Tsavo east for 1 day. We wanted to have a jeep to ourselves, not with a big group in a minivan (which you see a lot of, often offered cheaper by other safari operators). Very professional communication about the itinerary and payment. Sebastian was right on time for the pick-up, very safe drive to the park, with cold water in the jeep and a clean toilet break on the way to buy some breakfast/snacks. We were very lucky in seeing all animals within just 2 hours! Even saw a lion hunt zebra right in front of us. Sebastian knew all the best spots, was very knowledgeable about the animals and often was the first one to arrive at the scene. He was in contact with the other park guides so other safari groups also got a chance to see the difficult to spot leopard & giraffe. Lunch was a delicious luxurious buffet, very clean toilets and overlooking a watering hole with monkeys, elephants, springbok. We enjoyed chatting about Kenyan culture with Sebastian on the drive back and learned a lot about villages we saw on the way. Would definitely recommend Mackos & Sebastian.

Four Days That Felt Like a Living Nature Documentary
Our safari through Tsavo West, Tsavo East, and Amboseli National Parks was nothing short of breathtaking. In just four days, we encountered elephants, giraffes, lions, giraffes, and many other animals in their natural habitat, with the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro as the backdrop.
From the very first contact, communication with the tour operator Mackos and our main contact Brian was excellent – fast, clear, and reliable. Our driver and guide Sebastian was outstanding: calm, knowledgeable, and always focused on our safety and comfort. His instinct for wildlife and the best viewpoints made every day special.
The vehicle may not have been brand new, but it was very reliable and perfectly suited for the safari. Considering the overall experience, the value for money was excellent. We would choose this exact tour again without hesitation. It truly exceeded all our expectations.

They are flexible and respectful
I really enjoyed this 4-day safari with Wonderlust. Ali and Sébastien were great with us. They taught us a lot about Kenya and wildlife. They have always been at our disposal so that we see as many animals as possible. The car was clean and super comfortable. I recommend this company for your safari and if you are lucky, to have Sebastien and Ali accompanying you. Thank you!

Amazing tour with great driver/guide
My girlfriend and I went on a 1-day safari with Mackos Wanderlust Safaris on 24/11/2025 and it was absolutely amazing. Upfront communication and organization was clear and easy, the sarafi itself was great with stunning views of the wildlife and our driver was very nice, genuine, and accommodated all our requests as much as possible.
Both my girlfriend and I were extremely happy and satisfied with how the day went and the overall experience.

Our safari guide was honestly one of the best ever! He was extremely kind, funny, and knowledgeable.
The price was totally fair, and everything was well organized. He even recommended great hotels and places to visit, which made our trip even better. Overall, the whole experience was perfect — we couldn’t have aske
Wonderful safari tour🇰🇪🦁🐒🐃
A few days ago, we returned from Kenya, and while my impressions are still fresh, I would like to write a review of our safari tour. We planned and booked the safari tour six months before leaving Germany. We paid a 30% deposit and paid the rest on site. On the day of the safari tour, we were accompanied by our driver Sebastian and our guide Brian. Sebastian speaks a little German, so we understood everything he said. He answered many of our questions and translated what Brian told him about the animals. We saw many animals, including a lioness with her cub. We spent the night at Nugatane Lodge.

Excellent safari experience with very professional staff!
We were 2 couple and we did an amazing 3D2N safari in Tsavo East and West.
Bryan and the driver Sebastian are very professional and experienced guys, who did everything was in their possibility to let us meet a great amount of different animals.
The 4 lions and 7 cubs left us without words.
Amazing and recommended safari company, definitely good value for money

Unforgettable Safari
We had an amazing experience with Mackos Wanderlust Safaris and would absolutely recommend them to anyone planning a safari adventure! Everything was well-organized, and we felt taken care of from start to finish.
A special shoutout to our driver and guide, Nick – he was fantastic. Friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about wildlife, Nick made the whole trip even more memorable. He shared so much fascinating information about the animals we saw and made sure we never missed a moment. His energy and enthusiasm were contagious!
Thanks to Mackos Wanderlust Safaris and Nick, we have unforgettable memories and stories to tell. Highly recommended!
