DREAM EXPERIENCE
Our experience was simply perfect from beginning to end.
Esther was absolutely amazing. From the very first contact, she listened carefully to all our questions and concerns and helped us plan a truly tailor-made safari based on exactly what we were looking for. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and kindness made the entire process completely stress-free.
The organization was flawless. Everything was perfectly arranged, from our airport transfer to the hotel, the transfers to and from the safari, and finally our return to the airport. Every detail was taken care of, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy the experience.
The choice of Tipilikwani Mara Camp was outstanding. The camp is absolutely beautiful, located inside the reserve and just minutes away from the game drive routes. Waking up surrounded by nature was something truly unforgettable. The food was excellent, the staff were incredibly friendly, and the atmosphere was simply magical.
A special thank you goes to our guide, Joseph. He was knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and always available. He made us feel like the safari was designed just for us, carefully listening to our requests while always respecting the wildlife and the rules of the reserve. His passion and experience made every single game drive unforgettable.
We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better safari. It was an incredible experience that exceeded all our expectations, and we wholeheartedly recommend Esther and her company to anyone planning a trip to Kenya.
If you have the chance, ask for Joseph as your guide—you won’t regret it.
Thank you again for everything. It was truly the trip of a lifetime!

Highly experienced, professional and excellent value
Our driver and guide Peter went above and beyond to ensure that our safari tour was superb. From the very beginning of our trip, Peter helped get us set up and ensured that our journey was full of interesting sightings, information and options, not only taking us through everything we would be doing but getting us from one place to the next quickly and with stops of interest along the way.
Peter seems to have an encyclopaedic knowledge of each of the different reserves we visited over the course of 5 days (The Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Ol Pejeta and Samburu), as well as a deep network of connections to ensure that we found the best sightings and points of interest each day.
We saw everything we could possibly have hoped for, and so much more, on our journey. From all of the rare or big animals to the most incredible vistas and sunsets, our journey will remain totally unforgettable and I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful, honest, personal and heartfelt journey of Kenya's treasures. I cannot recommend Estleon Adventures and Peter more.

Trip of ta lifetime with Estleon Adventures
Our safari with Estleon Adventures was amazing from beginning to end. Esther was always very helpful in answering our questions and handled every detail of our trip with great care.
When we arrived in Nairobi we were greeted by our driver, Nicholas, who took us to our hotel. For the next 4 days, we were traveling in a spacious and comfortable pop-up roof Land Cruiser.
Our guide, George, was terrific! He was incredibly responsible, attentive and helpful throughout the safari. We were impressed by his knowledge and his amazing ability to spot wildlife.
We were fortunate to see an incredible variety of wildlife, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, hippos, rhinos, buffalo, giraffes, wildebeest; zebras, antelopes, baboons, and many others.
Stunning scenic views and a unique habitat filled with lush greenery was truly beautiful.
The most unforgettable highlight was witnessing the Great Wildebeest Migration crossing the Mara River.
Our accommodation was exquisite. The lodges were spacious, comfortable, clean and in beautiful surroundings. The service and hospitality were exceptional.
We always felt safe, comfortable and well cared for.
Overall, this safari exceeded our expectations. What really stood out was everyone's professionalism and dedication to ensuring we had the best possible experience.
It was truly the trip of a lifetime, and we would not hesitate to book with Estleon Adventures again.

Unforgettable Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara safari with Estleon Adventures Tours & Travel
We had the most amazing 4 day safari organized by Estleon Adventures.
Esther, the owner and our coordinator, was always helpful and responsive, and stayed in contact before and during our safari trip.
Our adventure started with dinner at the Carnivore Restaurant renowned for its legendary "Beast of Feast", serving a variety of expertly roasted meats.
Our guide, George, was absolutely fantastic: professional, friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable of the wildlife and local culture. We always felt safe, looked after, never rushed, and thanks to his phenomenal animal-spotting skills and his dedication we enjoyed every moment of the safari. We have seen so many wildlife including the Big Five, and were fortunate enough to witness and experience the spectacular Great Wildebeest Migration crossing.
Another highlight of our trip was a hot air balloon safari and champagne breakfast. The view of the sunrise and wildlife from above was spectacular!
All the lodges we stayed in were luxurious, especially Ashnil Mara Camp, which is located along the banks of Mara River. We were impressed by the staff's positive attitude, professionalism and welcoming atmosphere that made our stay there truly special.
We highly recommend Estleon Adventures Tours & Travel to anyone planning a safari trip. Everything was incredibly well organized and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. Communication from the beginning to the very end was outstanding. The lodges, food, service, and hospitality were exceptional. Estleon Adventures delivers on every promise; they are professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about giving you the experience of a lifetime.

It was the perfect adventure.
In March, my boyfriend and I booked a safari—and yes, it was all very spontaneous. We organized everything within just five days. We even changed the dates three times, and each time we were quickly provided with a new offer. Simply amazing.
The organization on site was excellent, from the pickup at our hotel to the various park visits and the transfer back to the hotel. I can only highly recommend it. Every request we had was answered immediately.
Our driver took his time for us and showed us the most incredible things. I truly can’t recommend this experience enough.

Trip of a Lifetime in Kenya – Huge Thanks to Esteleon
We’ve just got back from the most incredible trip to Kenya organised by Esteleon, and I’m still thinking about it every day. I could honestly write pages about this trip but I’ll try to keep it to the highlights.
From the start Esther was fantastic – very organised, great communication and always quick to reply to any questions. When we arrived in Nairobi we were met by Esther’s driver and taken to the Argyle Grand Hotel, only about a 10-minute easy drive from the airport, which was perfect after a long flight. We stayed there two nights before the safari started.
For the next week we travelled with our guide Robinson, who took us through the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli. What an adventure.
We were lucky enough to see the Big Five, and often incredibly close up, but what really made the trip so special was Robinson. His knowledge was amazing – he seemed to know everything about everything – but he was also warm, funny, flexible and a brilliant driver. He spotted things other guides didn’t and somehow made it feel like we were properly interacting with the animals rather than just watching them. The pace of everything felt just right and he genuinely made us feel like kings and queens of the jungle.
Two lodges we absolutely loved were Ilkeliani Camp in the Maasai Mara and The Cliff at Lake Nakuru. Both were very special places with incredibly friendly staff, beautiful settings and food that was honestly outstanding (Ilkeliani and The Cliff felt almost Michelin level at times).
Amboseli was magical too and Robinson actually knew many of the elephants by name, and bizarrely they seemed to recognise him as well. We were also specially invited to informally visit the Elephant Trust research camp which was so special and gave us a real insight into the work being done to understand elephant behaviour.
After eight amazing days on safari we took the train to Mombasa (Esther booked the tickets and Robinson dropped us at the station). The train was surprisingly modern – almost European style – and from there we were taken to Diani Beach, where we stayed at Ocean Village overlooking the most beautiful white sand and turquoise sea.
We were enjoying ourselves so much that we decided last minute to book another four-day safari with Esther to Tsavo East and West, and we’re so glad we did. Tsavo felt wilder and more raw than the other parks and on some drives we didn’t see another vehicle at all – I think we only saw one other person the entire time. It was pure heaven.
The wildlife experiences were unbelievable on all safaris. Buffalo chasing lions, a baboon eating a baby gazelle, a lion catching a zebra, cheetahs hunting, black and white rhinos, a leopard incredibly close with no other vehicles around, hippos climbing out of the river right in front of us and of course endless elephants. As first-time safari travellers we honestly couldn’t believe how much we saw. At times it genuinely felt like we were on a wildlife documentary with Robinson as our own David Attenborough.
Because of the Middle East situation we changed our return route and skipped our planned stop in Abu Dhabi, flying home via Ethiopia instead, and Esther sorted everything out smoothly.
A couple of small tips for anyone planning a similar trip: mornings and evenings can be chilly on safari so take a jumper, and definitely pack a swimsuit because by the time you get back from the early game drive it’s hot and the pool is very welcome. We hardly saw any mosquitos and the lodges spray in the evenings, so we didn’t get bitten once. It’s also nice to bring a few sweets if you want to give something to the Maasai kids near the park entrances.
Kenya completely blew us away and with Esther organising everything and Robinson guiding us it couldn’t have been better.
If you’re thinking about a safari in Kenya, just do it. A huge thank you to Esther for organising everything so smoothly and especially to Robinson for making the safari so unforgettable. We feel very lucky to have experienced Kenya this way.

Wonderful experience with a compassionate and service-centric touch
We really enjoyed the entire experience and are very thankful that we selected the Estleon Safari group . Robin is a gem and we did not want to leave to our next destination without him. We are happy to recommend others to choose your organization due to a great experience, effective communication and making us feel welcomed by accommodating our many changes. Thank you again

"Flawless Planning and the Ultimate Big 5 Experience with Estleon Adventures!"
An Unforgettable Kenyan Safari!!! Brilliant Planning & an Outstanding Guide!
We just returned from an incredible Kenya safari and the experience truly exceeded our expectations.
From the very beginning, our travel consultant Esther was fantastic**—kind, responsive, and incredibly patient as we asked plenty of questions and fine-**tuned the plan. She customized the itinerary exactly to our preferences, and everything felt smooth and well-organized throughout.
Our first night at The Cliff on Lake Nakuru was absolutely magical, honestly one of the biggest highlights of our private trip. The setting and atmosphere were unforgettable and set the tone for the rest of the journey.
The absolute standout, though, was our guide Geoffrey. His tracking skills and wildlife knowledge were exceptional. In a surprisingly short time, we saw all of the Big 5, and he also helped us spot a cheetah and several other rare animals we didn’t expect to see. He always seemed to be in the right place at the right time, and his explanations made every game drive more meaningful.
One more thing I really appreciated: on our final day, we had a 1:00 a.m. flight, and Esther arranged the hotel perfectly around that schedule, which made the departure stress-free and very comfortable.
If you’re planning a safari in Kenya, I highly recommend Estleon Adventures. A huge thank you to Esther and Geoffrey for giving us the trip of a lifetime!

Safari with Estleon Adventures Enthusiastically Recommended!
Our 7-day, 6-night Kenya Family Safari with Estleon Adventures in late November 2025 was truly exceptional. My wife, daughter, and I all agree that this was our best travel experience to date.
A major reason for the success of our trip was our driver and guide, Bernard (“Robbie”). He was outstanding—warm, knowledgeable, informative, and consistently attentive to our needs. With extensive experience across the national parks we visited (Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and the Masai Mara), Robbie demonstrated remarkable skill in spotting wildlife and understanding animal behavior. His ability to navigate challenging terrain with ease added to our comfort and confidence throughout the safari.
Equally impressive was the planning support we received from Estleon Adventures. Esther Nditu was exceptional in her responsiveness, organization, and attention to detail. From recommending excellent accommodations to arranging special meal plans tailored to our family, she ensured that every element of our itinerary was carefully considered.
Estleon Adventures also offers safari experiences in Tanzania, Uganda, and Rwanda, and based on our experience, I would enthusiastically recommend them for a safari in any of these destinations. Our family could not have asked for a more memorable or well-executed adventure.
