Reviews
Great trip!
We have just finished the 3 day, 2 night tour of Tsavo East and Taita Hills with Black Santa. We can not fault the trip, from start to finish Herbert was knowledgeable and ensured we had the best time ever. The accomodation - Voi Safari lodge and Salt Lick were amazing and the food was great! Highly recommend :)

So welcoming and informative
I went on one of Herbert’s safaris in June of 2026 and could not fault it! I was part of a group of 21 year old girls and we had the absolute best time! Herbert made everything about the experience so straight forward - from picking us up from our hostel in Mombasa to dropping us off at our next hostel in Diani Beach at the end of the safari. The entire safari was so straight forward to organise thanks to Herbert, and the experience was exactly as planned. Herbert is so informative about the national parks and made us feel so comfortable and welcoming. He had bottles of water on offer throughout the whole thing and made sure we had everything we needed. I would recommend this safari to anyone!

The best safari!
We went as a group of 5 young girls who were a bit wary of travelling alone and getting from one place to another around Kenya but Herbert made all of us feel so safe from picking us up and dropping us off to our next destination and providing waters for the whole weekend. He made sure we went on the best game drives and told us so many facts about each animal! I couldn’t recommend a better company to book your safari through!!

Herbert was extremely knowledgeable, found all the right camps, and was great for finding the big 5.
The value was great for the experience. Between the Severin camp in the middle of Tsavo West, and a private plunge pool at Tsavo East, we had the best accommodations.
He helped us out with train tickets from Nairobi to Mombasa, and all in all, great guide, delivered on promise, and would book again.

Excellent
I was apart of 5 21 year old girls who booked the 2 day and 1 night safari in Tsavo East national park. When I say it was the best two days of my time in Kenya I am not exaggerating. From the minute Herbert picked us up to the second he dropped us off, he made sure we were provided with everything we needed and made us feel so comfortable. As we are a group of young girls we were worried we wouldn’t feel safe, but we really shouldn’t have been worried as Herbert is one of the nicest people I have ever met. He was so knowledgeable and answered all of our questions! For our night stay we stayed at Voi Wildlife Lodge and when we got there we were amazed by how nice it was. The whole weekend was such great value for money, and we honestly had the best time. I would recommend Black Santa Safaris to anyone who wants the most amazing experience

The Most Amazing 2 Days!
We had the most amazing 2 day and 1 night safari with Black Santa. We are a group of 5 girls travelling to Kenya for the first time and Herbert gave us the best experience we could have ever asked for. We felt so comfortable in his company and every detail was covered including drinking water in the van. Herbert picked us up right outside our first hotel and dropped us at our next hotel in another location when the safari was finished which made the whole process so much easier. For only a 2 day safari we saw so much, and were lucky enough to see some of the harder to find animals. The communication with Herbert was excellent throughout the entire planning process and the value for money is excellent. He is so knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions we had. We will never forget this experience and would absolutely recommend using Black Santa safari tours to anyone! Thanks so much again!

Well Organised friendly local Guide Company, Fantastic Experience
I was looking for a private overnight tour for 8 friends At short notice , from our ship to Tsavo East. Herbert responded quickly, bringing together his local knowledge and experience to meet my request. Herbert and Patrick picked us up early on the first day from Mombasa Port making it easy for all of us and maximising the limited time we had. Good organisation , spotting , and knowing Tsavo well meant we had 3 drives morning , evening and early morning, seeing lots of wildlife along with a stay at Voi wildlife lodge . The guys took great care of us making sure we were comfortable and safe. We also visited a Masai Village learning more about their ways and how they’ve are now schooling their children. Black Santa Safaris and Herbert Great Safari and Great Value

Great experience
All went great.
Despite our initially booked lodge backseat unreachable due to floods in the very last minute, Black Santa managed to arrange another lodge lodge.
In terms of pricing, their proposal was much better vs another tour guide (similar itinerary and lodges).
Our guide James was very polite, responsive and did his best to make our experience unforgettable. Highly recommend.
