One in a life time experience thanks to Santa
5/5

A great guide who is not only funny but also has a keen eye for wildlife (and knows a lot about the animals). He was the only one who spotted the lion on the second morning. I can highly recommend Black Santa. He put together a package that suited us perfectly and gave us two unforgettable days. The day tour of Mombasa was also fantastic. Black Santa was always reliable, always in time, and always around us. The communication before and during the trip was super easy.
Advice I: Before you go on safari, learn the English words for rarer animals such as ostrich or grey crowned crane or warthog to understand when Black Santa points out to them as he sees them in the bushes.
Advice II: The self carved wood items in the gallery before entering the park are really hand crafted (coming from the Akamba handcraft market in Mombasa where more than 2000 carvers work together in a cooperative and provide the whole country with there work. (However, by far the best and largest selection can be found at the Akamba Handcraft Market itself, where you can also watch the artists at work.

We had an absolutely amazing time with Black Santa. Herbert was an absolute pleasure to be on Safari with. He was very funny, knowledgeable about the animals, and reliable (always on time and stuck to the plan). The places we stayed at were great too. Would absolutely recommend.

We were completely happy with the moments we were able to experience.
5/5

Everything went wonderfully from the very beginning. From booking to the start of the safari, we were in constant contact with the owner. He fulfilled our every wish and put together the perfect trip for us. The safari itself was breathtakingly beautiful, and the two tour guides led us expertly in every respect. We were more than satisfied!

Perfect from start to finish. Our driver was prompt and attentive and explained everything to us.
5/5

From start to finish our safari was perfect! Our tour guide arrived on time and was very courteous and helpful!

The Salt Lick Lodge was the the most magical place to stay, we woke up to elephants drinking from the waterhole outside our bedroom window, it was so lovely to see the baby elephants too!

Our driver picked us up early, before breakfast, he took us out on safari for around 2 hours and I have to say we were in awe of all the wildlife! We saw zebras, giraffes, water buffalo, heart beasts to name but a few but the most magical moment of all was seeing the lioness with her 4 cubs, so beautiful and didn’t seem phased by the safari vehicles. Our driver took us to the right places and explained about the animals and their behaviours etc!

I would recommend our tour, very reliable tour guide and staff at Salt Lick lodge were all very welcoming.

Accommodation was basic but you’re not in the room for very long, good selection of food and all run very efficiently!

I went on the Safari with My Wife and my mother it was such a brilliant experience for us especially my mum of 70 years old. Our Tour Guide Black Santa is so good at his job so much knowledge so good at tracking and spoting animals from far away. He even goes out of his way to do his very best to find u animals eg Lions.
If you book with this compwny you will be well taking care of the park was very good tge place we stayed for one night was amazing with a swimming pool in a safari park. Great views so many memories and photos. And at a very good price you will love Black Santa, you are in safe hands with this man.
