Seamless safari with incredible wildlife encounters
A remarkable 3-day Maasai Mara safari that exceeded every expectation. We were fortunate enough to witness the Big Five, including a breathtaking lion hunt of a buffalo, something few visitors ever get to see. A lioness with her cubs was an unforgettable highlight, as were elephants, hyenas, and zebras all with their babies, making it a truly special time to visit. The giraffes and abundant birdlife added to an already stunning experience. Fauna Safaris made the entire trip completely seamless, logistics were smooth from start to finish, and it was clear the team knew exactly what they were doing. Couldn’t recommend them more highly.

Fantastic service for a fantastic price. Moses you are the man!
Great value for money all the way through and completely reliable. Efficient pick up from Nairobi and a tour of Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara. Our tour guide Moses was knowledgeable, dependable and great fun. Everything ran smoothly!

Professional, responsive, thoughtful, and dedicated to creating a truly memorable safari.
Fauna Safaris made our honeymoon safari truly unforgettable.
From the beginning, the entire trip was handled with professionalism, flexibility, and genuine care. Our consultant, Ivy, stayed in close contact with us throughout the journey and was always responsive, proactive, and easy to communicate with. Because this was our honeymoon, she also prepared several thoughtful surprises along the way, which made the trip feel much more personal and special.
What impressed us most was how well Fauna handled unexpected changes. Our original safari was planned for six days, but at the very last minute we decided that we loved the Maasai Mara so much that we wanted to stay for one more day. Even though we made the request very late, Ivy immediately started coordinating everything and managed to arrange the additional accommodation for us. That extra day became one of the highlights of our honeymoon.
Our guide, Jasan, was extremely exceptional. With more than 15 years of safari experience, he has a deep understanding of wildlife, birds, plants, habitats, and animal behavior. He was not simply good at finding animals — he understood where they were likely to go, why they behaved in certain ways, and how to observe them without disturbing them.
Some of our best moments came from his ability to predict animal behavior. He positioned us near a small waterhole before a large elephant family arrived to drink and bathe, giving us an incredible view before the other vehicles reached the area. On another occasion, he explained why a group of zebras kept watching a stream where a crocodile was waiting, and after we patiently stayed nearby, the zebras eventually approached the water exactly as he predicted.
Jasan also has enormous respect for wildlife. He knows when it is appropriate to approach animals more closely and when it is important to keep a respectful distance. During possible zebra and wildebeest crossings, for example, he deliberately avoided driving too close because he did not want the vehicles to interfere with their natural behavior. We deeply appreciated this responsible approach to safari guiding.
He is also an excellent driver, extremely patient, polite, knowledgeable, and genuinely pleasant to spend time with. By the end of the trip, we trusted him completely and simply let him guide us.
We wholeheartedly recommend Fauna Safaris to travelers who want not only to see the Maasai Mara, but to truly understand and appreciate it.
One small but important note: if you are the kind of traveler who wants to get as close to animals as possible at any cost, pressure your guide to disturb wildlife, ignore park rules, or even ask to feed or interfere with animals, please do not choose Jasan. He respects the animals and the reserve too much for that, and travelers like this only put a good guide in a difficult position. We unfortunately saw some visitors behaving this way, and we truly hope Jasan never has to deal with that kind of pressure.
For respectful travelers who are curious, patient, and genuinely interested in nature, however, we cannot recommend Jasan highly enough.
The combination of Ivy’s thoughtful coordination, Jasan’s extraordinary guiding, and the professionalism of the entire Fauna team turned our safari into one of the most memorable experiences of our lives.
We have already promised ourselves that when we return to Kenya, we will come back to Fauna Safaris — and we will absolutely ask for Jasan again.
Thank you, Fauna Safaris, Ivy, and Jasan, for making our honeymoon so special.

A special thank you goes to our guide, Bonny. Without him, our experience would not have been the same. He was truly exceptional, kind, knowledgeable and always attentive to our needs. He made every game drive special and did everything possible to make sure we had the best experience.
The places where we stayed were also beautiful, comfortable and welcoming. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and we highly recommend this tour and especially our wonderful guide Bonny!
