Excellent safari
The Safari was an amazing experience, watched so many animals. The driver knew the best spots. The hotels were nice, especially Lake Nakuru Lodge. I asked them to include airport pick up, drop off and hotel in Nairobi and they did.
Communication could be better, there was a change in the hotel in Ambosseli and I was not informed about it.
In the same car they fit 6 people from different tour providers so not all stay in the same hotel, that complicated a bit the logistics and some days I had other drivers picking me to drive me to where the rest of the group was. Also, others can have less or more tour days so you might be with different groups.
Overall an excellent experience and I fully recommend it.

Birthday Safari Trip!
Simeon Safaris and Juliet allowed me to have an extraordinary 6-Day birthday safari!
While looking up safaris, I had reached out to a few different companies with inquires. Juliet was easily the #1 person I talked to while researching who to book with. I booked with Juliet within 24hrs of her contacting me. THAT is how pleased I was with her timely responses and the information she passed onto me. In total, we had an email chain of 29 messages from the time of booking up until I flew to Africa.
Upon arriving in Nairobi a day prior to the safari, Juliet had set up a hotel for me at the Best Western. There was a driver waiting for me with a sign once I got through customs and exited the airport. It was about a 20-25min drive from there to the hotel.
The following morning, Juliet and a driver picked me up promptly at 7am from my hotel and brought me to the Simeon Safari’s office. Once there, I completed the last of my paperwork, took welcome pictures, and was given a small lion figurine that had Simeon Safaris printed on it! Juliet then escorted me downstairs where I met the other members of my safari group, and our driver, Charles.
On day 2, Juliet messaged me via WhatsApp to check in and make sure everything was running smoothly. I had already seen numerous lions, so I sent her some pictures. Her response was, “ You were able to see Mufasa!”.
I would also like to mention that I booked the mid range accommodations. Somehow (I’m not entirely sure why), Juliet bumped me up to luxury for 5 of the 6 nights I stayed at no extra cost! Other members of my group selected the budget accommodations. Some of the distances between mid-range and budget were far apart, where luxury options were closer. This allowed for smoother transitions for daily pickups and drop offs. All of my accommodations were EXCEPTIONAL!
On the last day of my Safari, Juliet stayed in touch to ensure I arrived at the airport for my flight. She also contacted me to make sure I arrived back in the US! As a solo traveler, I cannot recommend her and Simeon Safaris enough! I felt safe, well taken care of, and had an extraordinary birthday while in Africa. Juliet, thank you so much for everything! Asante sana!!!

An amazing Safari trip
We had a great safari with Simian Safaris. Though the itinerary changed slightly, everything was well arranged. The hotel exceeded our expectations, and the guide was very active in finding animals. We saw many, including the Big Five. Overall， satisfied!

Amazing
Hi Simian Safari team
This is Lin who joined a Safari tour of Mid-Range from Aug 18 thru 23.
I would like to express my satisfactory toward this company.
At the very first day of the tour, Wilkister (Nilah) picked me up at the hotel and she was really kind and told me some African culture. We took some videos together and had a happy chat in the car. The person who booked my tour was Juliet and she gave me a Rhino as souvenir. She’s my very first Masai person friend. I really like that Rhino cus it was so cute! Dennis, welcome me with a warm smile. We did not talk too much with each other but I do appreciate his kindness.
Charles, our tour guide and drive. He was dedicated to help us out during the trip. He was always punctual and patiently explained every single detail of the journey to us. Once we went to a hotel and he told us to close the open-top. We were confused why we have to do it because apparently nobody could come in from the open top. Eventually we realized those land cruisers without closing got rubbed from those “monkeys”. Charles really foresees the future consequences of not closing the window and told us to avoid this tragedy from happening. He’s the man!
In a conclusion, I will rate this Simian 5 out of 5 for the service.

It was the best time of our lives. We enjoyed it a lot.
A holiday we will never forget! We booked a 7 day tour - Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Hell's Gate, Amboseli. Our driver, goddana, was not only an amazing driver but he also gave us very interesting facts and information about the animals. Thanks to him, we saw the Big Five live on our first day and he tried to take us as close to the animals as possible so that we could see the best views :-) The accommodation and food were excellent (we were on a budget tour). The beauty of the Kenyan landscape and animals is impossible to describe. Many thanks to simian safaris for giving us such a great time. We highly recommend this company!

amazing and accommodating company provided an unforgettable experience
From the beginning of our safari Juliet and her team were very communicative. They were able to tailor our safari to be exactly what I wanted as far as parks, length and stays. They always replied to emails within 24 hours and were very flexible. Their price was comparable or lower to every other company I received quotes from! The safari experience itself was amazing as well. We chose mid-range accommodations and some of them seemed luxury to us. They even changed out stay for a later hotel due to bad reviews from other guests and were upfront and communicative during the process. I just can't say enough good things, I would highly recommend Simian Safaris to anyone looking for an African adventure!

A wonderful new experience thanks to Simian Safaris
The safari was amazing; it was a wonderful new experience, and we all loved it. Thank you so much Simian Safaris for organizing the safari—everything was thought out down to the smallest details. A special thanks to our guide, Robert — thanks to him, we saw so many animals. Everything was great, thank you!
