An amazing safari, great guide and staff!
5/5

The booking process was very smooth and easy, and Alice was very responsive and not pushy. They were able to create an itinerary based on what ur experience wants and needs, including a drop off in Watamu at the end of the safari.
We appreciated being given choices (accommodation, parks, itinerary/activities).
Our driver Willy was great from start to finish! He really made our trip special, and we thoroughly enjoyed spending the week with him and learning from him! He is clearly very passionate and knowledgeable about wildlife. We were able to see everything we wanted to see with him. He was also very supportive when I got food poisoning halfway through the trip.
All of the accommodations were great and we loved all of the national parks.
We couldn’t recommend Morning Star enough!! Very highly recommend.

Jackson was an exceptional safari guide and a truly good-hearted person. He was incredibly dedicated
5/5

Jackson was an exceptional safari guide and a truly good-hearted person. He was incredibly dedicated, responsible, and professional throughout our entire trip. His love and respect for wildlife were obvious in everything he did, and he always showed great care for the animals. He also completed every activity on our itinerary to a very high standard—game drives, transfers, and all scheduled experiences were handled smoothly and professionally. Thanks to Jackson, our safari was safe, informative, and unforgettable. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a conscientious and caring guide.
The travel agency also communicated very well with us throughout the process.

The only areas we hope Morning Star can improve are: conducting thorough vehicle checks before departure to avoid possible breakdowns, and providing better cooling and sun protection inside the vehicle in the future to enhance the overall travel experience. These improvements would make the trip even better.

This has been a fulfilling, unforgettable and unique travel experience.
5/5

The itinerary is very well arranged. It is packed yet not tiring. Stephen is a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. Everything has been perfectly organised over these five days. Every site we visited is unique, distinctive and full of character.

Amazing 9-day private safari with Morningstar!!
5/5

I’ve just finished my trip in Kenya. Big thanks to Beryl for the seamless pre-trip planning. My driver guide, Wilfred, was incredible! He is highly knowledgeable about wildlife and always made me feel completely safe throughout the trip. He has eagle eyes—found a leopard on day one and helped me see all the Big Five. He always secured the front-row view when animals crossed the road. Highly recommend Morningstar, Wilfred for an unforgettable Kenya trip!

Amazing Anniversary Safari!
5/5

We wanted to do something really special for our fiftieth wedding anniversary, and we contacted three safari providers via Safaribookings. From the first communication back from Joysharon at Morningstar, they impressed us most. Joysharon presented us with itinerary options, clearly explained costs, and answered for us numerous questions we had planning our first safari. The itinerary we decided on was two nights in Nairobi (Argyle), two nights at Amboseli (Kibo), one night at Naivasha (Sopa), one night at Nakuru (Sopa), and two nights at Masai Mara (Zebra), giving us ample acclimation time from our long travel from the United States and a perfect mix of traditional camps and resorts. Joysharon kept contact with us via WhatsApp and emails thorough the entire planning process, and then once on the safari she checked to ensure that we arrived safely at our hotel in Nairobi, checked on us every evening to ensure our expectations had been met, ensured we arrived back at airport with no issues at conclusion of our safari, and even checked to make sure we arrived back home. She obviously contacted our camps and resorts in advance, and as a result we were surprised with room upgrades, decorated beds, and staff singing and celebration cakes that made our fiftieth anniversary even more memorable.

Our assigned driver and safari guide was Gabriel. He was courteous, pleasant, and went above and beyond to make us comfortable. He has excellent driving skills on the challenging Kenya roads. He made extra washrooms stops for us, modified the schedule of activities to give us additional rest times, and even went and bought a step stool when he noticed us struggling some to get in and out of the jeep. In addition, Gabirel knew just where to go the maximize our wildlife encounters, often being the first or only vehicle for animal viewing. He took care of all of our arrangements, tickets, etc, and we just had to sit back and enjoy the adventure of a lifetime.

We highly recommend Morningstar Safaris, and suggest you ask personally for Joysharon as your travel consultant and Gabriel as your driver and guide.

Incredible Guides
5/5

Dominic was our guide for Ol Pejeta, and he was excellent. He is accommodating and taught us so much about the all animals we got to experience together. Dominic is very attentive to his guests, easy going, and his passion for wildlife made our first safari experience so special.

Tim was an amazing guide for our Masai Mara adventure. He is incredibly knowledgeable about all the animals. He is kind, attentive, and a very skilled driver. He helped us see so many animals and showed us so many beautiful birds.
I’d highly recommend him as a guide.
