Reviews
The tour operator is very reliable and quick to respond to emails, also they are very accomodating.
Our booking for the trek on mt. Kenya was really easy, we got a detailed itinerary, which was very helpful. I had some problems with sending my down payment through a wire transfer, so they made a payment link, where I could easily pay with my credit card.
The pickup was very punctual and we got driven in a comfortable van.
The trek itself went without any problems, we had a wonderful team of cooks, porters and guides who do the most amazing work! They offered us tea as soon as we sat down in the accomodations and the food was also wonderful. Our guide was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the wildlife and flora on mt. Kenya. When summiting we encountered quite a lot of snow, but with the mastery of our guide we managed to conquer this beautiful mountain.
All in all it was the most special experience in all of our vacation.
Deep thanks again to Cecilia, Peterson, Peter, Pirip, Patrick and Jay.

Flexible
This is the second time I have used Tukutane Kenya Safaris. They are easy to communicate with, give me options that fit my budget, and feel safe for my 4 year old and her 70 year old grandparents. They are always open to pick up timings that fit what my family wants and needs.

Readily available, reliable, knowledgeable and solution orientated
Tukutane Kenya Safaris was very quick to find an itinerary based on our wishes, and quicker even to make changes per our request. The offers were exactly what we were looking for.
The vehicle was very comfortable for the long hours and the guide had 25 years experience which made everything even more interesting.
All in all, very reliable choice, our party didn't have to worry with anything whilst under their care.

Exceptional Samburu visit (3 days games drives)
Communication with Eunice is fast and clear, which led us to right choices. She is helpful, kind and she provided different quotes depending of our budget.
The whole experience was exceptional and the guide Joseph is nice and calm. He managed to show us all the animals (except hipo) we wanted to see in Samburu even Cheetah and Leopard.
One point of criticality is that Joseph is not proactively giving color on the topics like historical context and social interaction of the animals. While he always gently answered our questions, he hadn't often raised the topic himself. Overall it was a great experience but this point ruined a bit the games.

Wonderful
We visited four very different parks, each with its own character, rhythm, and challenges. What made the experience seamless and deeply rewarding was Joseph. He was not just a driver, but a calm, intuitive presence throughout the journey. He reads the land, the animals, and the moment with a sensitivity that cannot be taught.
Joseph has an unhurried way about him. He doesn’t chase sightings or force excitement. Instead, he allows the wild to reveal itself in its own time. Because of that, many of our most powerful moments were not about dramatic encounters, but about silence, patience, and observation — elephants moving with dignity, predators resting between hunts, light changing over vast landscapes.
Across all four parks, Joseph adapted effortlessly — terrain, weather, animal behaviour, and our own energy levels. He knew when to wait, when to move, when to position the vehicle perfectly, and when to simply let a moment be. For anyone who values photography, learning, or simply being present, this makes a profound difference.
Tukutane Safaris clearly values depth over spectacle. There was professionalism without stiffness, warmth without intrusion, and genuine care throughout the trip. Logistics were smooth, communication clear, and everything felt thoughtfully handled.
Well organized
We did the 4 Days hike in Mount Kenya with summit of point lenana. It was a wonderful trip. Everything was well organised.

Responsive and Responsible
I chose the tour company who responsed to my quotation request first and found I made a right decision.
Communication was very easy on whatsapp and always timely.
Arrangement was flexible.
On safari day, the driver arrived on time and entertained us by showing around the Masai Mara.
I will choose Tukutane Kenya again as my agency if I have a chance to go back to Kenya.

One of the most trustworthy, transparent and friendly Safari agency in Kenya
Our wild safari in Kenya became the most amazing, exciting and unforgettable memory of our life, all thanks to Tukutane Kenya Safaris. Below is brief summary:
1. Excellent tour manager:
We were connected to Ms Eunice who helped to customise the trip for is two friends travelling to Kenya. We had given our requirements to skip Masai Mara as it was out of our budget due to the peak migration season. Eunice politely understood our requirement and on our suggestion very willingly arranged one day return tours from Nairobi to Amboseli on first day and Nairobi to Lake Nakuru on second. She had been a constant support for all our regular communications to clarify our queries regarding the dates, time of travel, local requirements etc. we were picked up at 5:00 am daily from our hotel in Nairobi and dropped back in the evening around 8:00 pm everyday.
2. Comfortable and customised tour:
Stringent budget made us choose Amboseli and Lake Nakuru instead of Masai Mara. However it turned out to be the best decisions we made as our Safari cost dropped down to 50%. Eunice also helped us with an option of a minivan instead of the Land Cruiser further saving money. The Minivan was very clean and comfortable and for just us two which turned it into a private vehicle for our entire trip. There was ample bottled water provided to us on the two days safari. The driver was polite to take any quick stops for coffee/snacks on our way to the parks (personal expense).
3. The most Amazing wildlife spotting upclose and without any rush:
With respect to spotting the wild life our Driver cum tour guide Mr Peter managed to help us witness almost all the animals we had on our list : big herd of elephants including babies, Giraffes, zebra, Wildebeest, group of Hippos outside the water body, white and black rhino, Cape buffalo, baboons, warthogs, gazelles, bucks, Cheetahs, flamingoes, pelicans, crowned cranes, ostriches. We could not spot any lions or leopards but that’s how wildlife is … very unpredictable.
But the most amazing experience was that we could witness a group of Hyenas eating a Cape buffalo kill …. Almost within an arms distance and for good 20 mins. All this happened due to the excellent, detailed park and animal knowledge of our driver Mr Peter ( He is 53 and his knowledge and eagerness to give us the best experience was unparalleled). If you choose Tukutane Safaris do request for Peter as your driver. Another best part about Peter was that he never expected or asked for any additional tips at the end of our safari ( though we did tip him on our own goodwill for his amazing service).
Overall we rate Tukutane Kenya Safaris a 5 star for the service, customisation, amazing game drives, polite driver and manager, budget friendly and for being trustworthy.

Simon was phenomenal, kind, knowledgeable, making every moment of our tour memorable and enriching.
We were a family of six including an infant, a child, and two elderly. And we were very comfortable, and able to get around with ease and in a timely manner. We also thoroughly appreciated the knowledge and history information our guide Simon shared throughout our stay. He was very gentle with the children too. By the end, we truly felt like we were saying goodbye to someone who had become family.
