Lovely experience!
The communication and booking with Dominic was fantastic. We always got very fast and kind answer. The driver Henry we had was sooo friendly and because it was a private safari he always checks that we had the views on the animals on our own that there are not much other jeeps around. And he is also a very good driver who drove us for like 10 hours a day. The Ngulia Safari Lodge was amazing! The views at the restaurant of the lodge is insane. There is a waterhole where you can see Elephants and in the evening you can see leopards right in front of you. On the rooms you also have a balcony where you can have a look over the national park and see lot of animals from there. The food in both lodges was so delicious!! The price of the tour is extremely cheap for what you get for the money. We had the best time there we will never forget!:) I can really recommend you a safari tour with Kentau Safari :)

Tailored to details
A big Thank You, Kentau Safaris, for organising the most amazing trip of our life! Since the very first communication with Dominic, I felt it's the best choice. We were travelling with children (15 and 6) and wanted something both rich in experience and not too tiring. Budget was also reasonably limited. While other tour operators put little or no attention to our needs, Dominic was the one asking question and adopting the tour by offering the best itinerary and stops between the parks. He was very attentive to details, took care of all the additional transfers and train tickets to Mombasa for the relaxing part of the trip. And he managed to do all this by offering a really good price for the private tour while we thought we will only allow us a shared one. Dominic helped us before and during the trip and patiently answered our endless questions. Our guide James was very friendly and did his best to show us all the wildlife of the National parks. I think this is a good example when a genuine customer focus of the smaller company beats the high marketing budgets of the bigger ones.

First and majestic experience in Masai Mara
I went on a 3-day group safari in Masai Mara with Kentau Safaris. Actually other tourists booked the tour from all different companies. But we did game drives with the same driver and in the same vehicle. What made Kentau Safaris special was that Dominic, the director of the company, answered my questions promptly and thoughtfully. I asked him a lot of questions because there was something confusing during the trip which was found out to be quite obvious in Africa, and he managed to answer my questions every time.
Although I couldn't spot animals such as cheetahs and leophards, our driver called Michael was absolutely skillful in driving that we didn't have to face any dangerous situations. I could see so many animals other than those I mentioned earlier. I would highly recommend Kentau Safaris, and thank you Dominic once again.

Amazing Safari experience
We were a group of 6 people and we went for the safari during the peak season in mid-July. Our tour guide was Simon Peter who made sure we had a fantastic experience during the game drives. We were able to catch all the big fives during our safari. All the accommodations were well arranged with good security and the food was really good.

Excellent service offer by Dominic and by David, our fantastic guide, good prices.
Dominic was very helpful and always avalaible. He helped us with our e-visa for example. We loved the service offered by David, our second guide. He was so kind, calm, good listener. He took great care of us. We saw and learned so much with him during the games drive.
Good price for all that we got.

comfortable and wonderful experience
Dominic's communication was smooth and helpful. He was always available online to answer our questions throughout the trip, and the price was much more affordable than other safaris. Furthermore, our safari guide, Jimmy, took great care of our family and meticulously helped us locate animals. I'm so grateful to Kentau Safaris for giving my family a wonderful Mara experience. We highly recommend Kentau, Dominic, and Jimmy to anyone looking to enjoy a safari!

Kentau could not have done better for our family trip!
We just got back from 2 weeks of traveling in Kenya as a family of 4 (kids age 10 and 13) organized and run by Kentau and had an absolutely amazing time. Dominic helped organizate the details and was tirelessly responsive and informative to my barrage of questions and iterations on our itinerary (I'm sure he thought they would never end!). Our driver/guide, and now friend, Fred was very experienced as well as focused on our trip, what would be best for our goals and to maximize our time in Kenya. He quickly worked through any unexacted bumps in the road that came up (because something will always come up!). Beyond expectations, Fred had unending patience for our girls (their ups and downs) and was genuinely engaged in their areas of interest like riding horses in the US and learning about softball. You could tell Fred was a life long learner himself and brings that love of information/exploration to his guiding. We could not have asked for a better trip and offer a BIG THANKS to the team that helped pull it off.
