Delivered as ordered...
...I spent quite a while pondering how to translate the English phrase "you get what you pay for" into German. We booked the 8-day safari tour, including the Maasai Mara and Amboseli National Park, for just under $1,500 per person. That's pretty much the bare minimum. Comparable offers often cost two or three times as much. Accordingly, our expectations weren't particularly high.
First realization: the parks, animals, and impressions are the same—regardless of whether you pay $1,500, $3,000, or $6,000. Second realization: the mode of transportation, apart from flying or hot air balloon safaris, is also the same. In other words, you spend a really (too?) long time sitting or standing in the car (and the cars you're sitting or standing in are the same, too).
So, that leaves the accommodations, the food, and the guide. First, regarding the first two: yes, they were rather basic, but always somewhere between acceptable and good – you get what you pay for!
Our guide, James Mwaura, on the other hand, proved to be a real stroke of luck: competent, friendly, and relaxed. With him, we felt we were in excellent hands, both in terms of driving (which is quite relevant given the local traffic conditions) and professionally and personally.
Here are a few more things we wish we had known beforehand:
* The 8-day tour includes 3 days in the Maasai Mara. Although this park is huge and fascinating, 2 days are perfectly sufficient.
* Super Eagles occasionally reshuffles the groups during the individual stages to accommodate the different tour options (e.g., 7 vs. 8-day tour). This isn't necessarily a disadvantage, but it can potentially detract from the experience. We therefore skipped the third day in the Maasai Mara to stay with our original group (and our guide, James).
* Super Eagles occasionally reshuffles the groups during the individual stages to accommodate the different itineraries (e.g., 7 vs. 8-day tour). * Before our tour, we did a half-day tour in Nairobi National Park, which was great. However, we were able to see four of the "Big Five" there, which somewhat diminished the "wow factor" of the Maasai Mara. In hindsight, we could have easily skipped that.
In conclusion: a fantastic safari tour, lasting impressions, a great guide (and a great group). And as for accommodation and food: delivered exactly as expected.

The best!
This is the best safari company in all of Kenya. From start to finish this was just an unforgettable experience. We did 7 days safari to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli National Park and are so happy with everything. The hotels/camps we stayed at are nice, the food was good, the truck was so comfortable and with excellent off road abilities.
Bildad at the office was so helpful with everything and even booked train tickets for us for the rest of our vacation in Kenya without any payment upfront.
Our guide James Mwaura is a true legend. He has 15 years of experience, which was easily noticeabel from the very beginning of the tour. Picking us up at our hotel in the morning, and dropping us off after the safari with a smile. He is always providing the best service, and has so much knowledge about all different animals, where to find them, different plants and in general so much knowledge about Kenyan culture and ways of living. This journey would not be the same without James so a big thank you for this wonderful experience!
If you are considering doing a safari in Kenya, you will not be disappointed with Super Eagles, and remember to ask for James to be your guide. 10/10!🙌🏻

My account manager, Daisy, is so reliable. You can trust her
Since I started consulting, my account manager, Daisy, has patiently answered all kinds of questions for me, and I am very satisfied with the hotel they chose. I had a pleasant holiday

The best holiday of my life so far although full of highs and lows (which could have been avoided).
5 stars to super eagles for communication before and during the trip - Daisy was very helpful and arranged mid-range accommodation for me.
Francis the driver was knowledgeable, calm and friendly and did a wonderful job spotting the animals and showing us the big five, although on the last day he ran over a dog which was extremely deflating! Little remorse was shown and with careful driving this should have been avoided. Shameful that we didn't check on the dog either. I was also provided with a driver in Amboseli who admitted he was drunk and had TEN beers that day and tried to encourage me to stop for a drink! He was friendly but not professional.
Seven wonders agency in Tanzania were not as effective at communicating and arranged for an inadequate people carrier to take us through Ngorongoro to meet the other tour group members. Ally the driver struggled with the vehicle and lost control of the wheel. We were very close to driving off the cliff. Thankfully he steered into the skid and others stopped to help push the car away from the cliff edge. This could have been avoided if we were in a sturdy 4x4 land rover/cruiser!
Simba was my friendly driver in Tanzania, although i would have loved a little more information The lunches provided in Tanzania were much better quality than those in Kenya.
Also super eagles kindly stored my luggage at their headquarters. Either whilst at the office when my bag was in the car, or when I had to exit the vehicle when driving to Nairobi airport, i had 100 euros stolen from my bag. Its a shame but was originally intended to be drivers tips. Always carry your bag and valuables with you. I was lucky they didn't take the lot and my laptop!
.
All that being said, I still had an adventure of a lifetime that opened my eyes to heaven existing on earth! A truly magical, spiritual and unforgettable experience of which i am very grateful to super eagles for organising it for me!

Beautiful landscapes, wonderful people, and an unforgettable experience
My recent trip to Kenya was absolutely amazing. From start to finish, everything was smooth, memorable, and even better than I expected. We were fortunate to have an incredible tour guide and driver, Benson, whose knowledge, kindness, and professionalism made every moment special. He truly went above and beyond to make sure we were safe, comfortable, and experiencing the very best of Kenya.
I also want to give huge appreciation to Michuki, an exceptional organizer who handled every detail perfectly. The entire itinerary was well-planned, stress-free, and thoughtfully arranged, allowing us to just enjoy the journey.
Beautiful landscapes, wonderful people, and an unforgettable experience — I couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommended! 🌿🦁✨

Incredible animal sightings
Benson was an amazing driver! Some of the roads were crazy but he was skillful in navigating our way. He communicated with other drivers for information and had a sense of where to expect the animals to head, once sighted, allowing us to have awesome close up views of so many animals. He was also extremely knowledgeable regarding the animals, plants, trees, etc. that we encountered. He was an all around great guy!!! We would highly recommend him for future safari trips in Kenya!!!!

Daisy was incredibly helpful, responsive, and efficient. We had an incredible experience!
We had Gilbert as our tour guide. He was fantastic! He was knowledgeable, kind, punctual, hard working, and adventurous. Gilbert made sure to find all of the animals we wanted to see. We saw the big 5 with ease! I can’t recommend this agency enough!
