Fantastic experience that I would recommend without hesitation — with just one accommodation caveat
Highlights
The decision to do a private tour was absolutely worth it. The flexibility, personalised attention, and pace made a real difference compared to group tours. The hotels in Nairobi and Nakuru were excellent — well above expectations in terms of comfort, cleanliness, and service.
The One Exception
The camp arranged for the Masai Mara leg — Enchoro Wildlife Camp — was a significant step down but it's not fault of the tourist operator
A Word on Local Vendors
Be aware that in certain stops, locals will approach you aggressively trying to sell crafts at wildly inflated prices — think $30 for items you can find at Nairobi airport for a fraction of the cost. This is not the operator's fault, but worth knowing so you're not caught off guard. Smile, decline, and move on.
Bottom line: A well-organised, worthwhile private safari experience.

Excellent tour
Absolutely excellent experience! Everything was well planned! We didnt have to worry about anything, our guide Chris was amazing, his driving and animals spotting skills were on point! He really tried his best (and succeeded) to help us see every animal we wanted to see while respecting them.

Incredible Experience of a Lifetime
I had an absolutely amazing safari experience from start to finish. The customer service was excellent throughout, and I was genuinely blown away that the owner personally joined me on the safari—such a rare and thoughtful touch that made the experience feel very special and personal.
Our driver was fantastic—funny, engaging, and extremely knowledgeable. He knew exactly where to find the animals and shared great insights about their behavior and habitats, which made the whole experience even more meaningful.
The village visit was probably the least enjoyable part of the trip, but it was still interesting to see and learn how the local community lives, even if it felt a bit less comfortable or polished compared to the rest of the experience.
The stay at Serena Lodge was beautiful—comfortable, peaceful, and perfectly set in a stunning location. Food was buffet style and a ton of variety. It was a great place to relax after the safari days with monkeys just outside your back door.
Overall, this was an unforgettable experience that I would highly recommend for anyone wanting a well-run, personal, and memorable safari adventure.

Highly recommended tour operator!
Kenya had been on our bucket list for a while. We chose Nkishon Tours & Travel and had an excellent tour thanks to them, visiting Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli over six days. From the moment we booked the tour, everything was organized seamlessly and we did not have to worry about anything other than waking up on time for the game drives!
Abigail, our tour coordinator, handled all the reservations and logistics, which was very helpful for us. Leonard was our guide throughout the journey and was friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and willing to go the extra mile to ensure we had the best possible experience. Having our own vehicle on this private tour allowed us to explore entirely at our own pace.
Overall, we enjoyed incredible landscapes and wildlife sightings and felt well taken care of every step of the way.
I can highly recommend Nkishon Tours & Travel to anyone looking to discover Kenya. We would gladly travel with them again!

Truly recommend the experience
We did the Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli safari tour and honestly, everything was just amazing from start to finish.
Of course, the wildlife was incredible, seeing the Big Five in the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru was stunning with its landscapes and birdlife, and Amboseli National Park with Mount Kilimanjaro in the background. Every park had its own vibe and something special to offer.
The accommodations were great, the service was smooth, and everything was well organized. But what truly made this experience unforgettable was our driver, Chris. He’s such an authentic and genuine person, full of fascinating stories and life experiences. You can tell he really loves what he does. His knowledge about wildlife, nature, and local culture is impressive, and he always made sure we were in the right place at the right time to see the animals. On top of that, he’s just a great person, kind, funny, and enjoyable.
Communication was super easy from the beginning, and the agency was always ready to help whenever we needed anything. We felt taken care of the entire time.

Amazing Kenyan safari experience
We had an amazing safari in Kenya visiting Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli. Our driver and guide, Chriss, was absolutely awesome! He really knows everything about the local wildlife and nature. He’s also funny and easy to talk to — he told us lots of interesting stories about himself, the local culture, and life in Kenya.Everything went smoothly thanks to him; he helped us with everything we needed and made sure we had a great time. We’re a couple from Romania, and we can honestly say this was a five-star experience from start to finish. Highly recommended!

And experienced team that is detailed and responsive
Abigail organized a new year’s safari to Amboseli National Park for me and my family to kick off 2026. Being the first time that we were bringing along our 2 young kids (ages 4 and 1.5), we had high expectations!
The accommodation was very well organized- including my parents suite and the kids’ beds. The timing arrangements were also precise and all went smoothly. This helped us maintain the meal schedules and naps times.
We were paired with not only the best imaginable accommodation option at Ol Tukai Lodge but also a knowledgeable and patient driver- Leonard who ensured that we felt at ease and the kids could really enjoy their first ever safari- learning many new facts….It was such a warm and memorable experience! I will certainly use them in future for all our trips!

Excellent.
Our safari experience in the Amboseli National Park was absolutely phenomenal from start to finish! We were so pleased with the entire trip. The communication from the very beginning with Abigail, our tour manager, was clear, prompt, and incredibly helpful.
Our guide and driver, Chris, was exceptional. His knowledge was incredible; he could spot wildlife that we would have completely missed and explained animal behaviours in such an engaging way. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, we saw pretty much everything there was to see in the park, including massive elephant herds and even a couple of unexpected lions! More than that, he was a genuinely friendly and personable guide and his passion for the animals was contagious.
We highly recommend this company.
