Amazing 15-day Safari in Kenya and Tanzania with Sumpton Safaris
5/5

Our party of 4 returned from an amazing 15-day safari in Kenya and Tanzania in mid-September operated by Sumpton Safari Adventures. We covered Nairobi, Lake Nakuru, the Mara Triangle, Northern and Central Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire and Amboseli during those 2 weeks. It was truly an experience of a lifetime including seeing Africa’s Big Five up close, the Great Migration of wildebeests streaming across the Mara River for more than half an hour, and so many other animals and birds. Our 2 guides, Samuel in Kenya and Japheth in Tanzania, were exceptionally talented, professional and friendly, skillfully driving us through the wilds, spotting the animals long before we could see them and captivating us with explanations about the animal life, local terrain and cultures of these 2 amazing countries.

The safari was very smoothly run, owing to the efforts of Lucy, the travel consultant at Sumpton Safaris, who was so helpful planning the safari, making lodging reservations and quickly responding to our never-ending stream of questions by email, text messages and calls. This was our first safari experience, so we had initial concerns about picking a small safari operator such as Sumpton. However, the positive feedback from speaking with a guest from a previous Sumpton safari, the responsiveness of Lucy and the level of attention, planning and personalized service exhibited by the Sumpton team, including meeting us at the airport on arrival and giving us a heartfelt send-off at the end, quickly put our concerns to rest. We made great friendships with all of the Sumpton team and look forward to traveling with Sumpton Safaris again in the future.

Amazing Service
5/5

Sumpton did such a great job of working with our group. From the beginning to the end of the trip, he went above and beyond. Extremely professional. Worked with our time constraints and budget. Did a great job communicating with us prior to and during the trip. The accommodations that he suggested and secured for us were amazing. He took extremely great care of our group. I would definitely recommend others to reach out to him and his team to put together their safari.
Sumpton Safari Adventures is truly a gem in the tourism industry.

The best safari experience
5/5

This was my second time going on a safari with Sumpton Safaris, and it couldn’t have been better.
My first safari experience was in Kenya with them, and I have such wonderful memories that I knew I had to choose them again for my trip to Tanzania.

From the very beginning, they helped me plan and organize exactly the experience I was looking for: a budget-friendly safari without missing out on the full experience. They took care of everything — our arrival arrangements, the safari operator, the accommodations, and more — and everything went perfectly.

Lucy was always available to answer any questions or resolve any issues we had, and she is absolutely lovely.
Sam is truly the best safari guide you could ask for.

Totally recommended!!!

They held our hand the entire trip!
5/5

Lucy and Mr Sumpton himself and the 2 guides we had for our Kenya/Tanzania trip were all great. From the time we first reached out to inquire about a safari with Sumpton Safaris, until we got back home last week, Lucy has been there. She responded to all our email inquiries, she then met us at the airport (with Mr Sumpton) and took us to our first hotel, and gave us a brief overview (again - we had been very well informed prior as well). For the next 2 weeks, Lucy was available thru WhatsApp for any questions we had. There were a couple of changes made and she was very good about keeping us informed along the way.

Our guides Samuel (KE) and Japhet (TZ) were wonderful. They kept us entertained and showed us the most amazing sights! We were able to spot all the Big Five as well as many many more animals and birds. We saw a lot of 'real' Kenya and Tanzania on our drives between Masai Mara and the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Amboseli Park. The entire route was very well laid out.

It might have been better to have flown back to Nairobi from Arusha (we chose to drive) but only because there was such horrible traffic that day (no fault of Sumpton Safaris!) Miles and miles of container trucks lined up due to some problem or other. Our driver did his very best to get us back to Nairobi with plenty of time to spare.

I would highly recommend Sumpton Safaris - the lodging choices were all very good. I'd also recommend going in November! It was quiet and we got spoiled at the lodges. And all the animals were there just for us! It was a wonderful trip.

My tour to Sweetwaters Olpajeta conservancy was mind blowing.Our guide for the day was Patrick.
5/5

A visit to Sweetwaters Olpajeta Conservancy in Kenya was an unforgettable experience, offering a blend of wildlife conservation, adventure, and breathtaking scenery.
Thankyou to Symptom Safaris for the opportunity to travel to the beautiful Laikipia county.We took a 45 mins drive from Nairobi via Nanyuki using the spacious and comfortable sumptom Safaris tourist vans.

1. Wildlife Viewing & Big Five Safari.

Olpajeta is home to the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino) and has one of the highest densities of predators in Kenya.Our guide Patrick ensured that we saw these animals and spent time with them .
It was such a beautiful experience.
