True professionals of the highest standards
5/5

Me and my friend booked a 3 days tour that included the Masai Mara reserve and the Masai Village. Furthermore, we stayed for 2 nights at the AA lodge in Mara on an all basis.

Everything was just perfect and of the highest standards. Starting with the kind attitude at the time of the initial contact with the company, the high availability, flexibility and the adaptation of the best package according to our request when at each stage we were sent the tour offers according to the adjustments we requested. Later, when booking everything was well documented and receipts and documents detailing the entire trip were sent to us immediately.

Later, we had a super professional guide and driver - Manu, who speaks fluent English is very experienced in doing safari trips. He was always on time, gave us detailed explanations about the animals in the reserve and about multiple issues in Kenya in general, very courteous and caring with a very pleasant and friendly attitude.

In addition all the coordination with the local authorities was perfectly done and everything went smoothly.
Finally, the AA lodge were we stayed was an amazing place, the food was great, the lodge was spacious and clean and the staff were really courteous. Large safari hats were given to us and mineral water was supplied during all tour.

The highlights of the tour were seeing lions from very close, seeing a live kill of a buffalo by a hyena and visiting the Masai tribe.

I strongly recommend Alligator Adventures Tours & Safaris Kenya they are true professionals with the highest standards.

A Perfect Safari !
5/5

As soon as I expressed my interest for a Kenyan safari package online, Meschak was in touch with me offering his expert advise and details. Although initially we wanted to do tour in Decmber 2022, with some other work we had to reschedule it to March 2023. Throughout this time period Meschak was in touch with me where he promptly answered our questions, and we negotiated over the itinerary, accomadation options and cost. This initial phase established the fact that they are very professional and always wanted to provide the best to their clients. On the day of our arrival in Nairobi, Meshack greeted us warmly and made sure we felt comfortable and our first day is perfect. We had a driver assigned at a reasonable cost for our first and only day in Nairobi and he gave us a good overview of Nairobi city and other closeby attractions which we enjoyed a lot. On day 2 we were greeted by Francis who became a part of our family for the next 7 days of the tour. He was very professional , polite, knowledgeable, respectful and patient which we loved as we had very long drives with him within parks as well as from one location to another. We highly recommend him as a driver/guide. Overall the itinerary was very well prepared with lot of thought given to make sure we were not too tired and we had enough time to experience the different landscapes and animals in lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, Maasai Mara and Amboseli. On the last day Meschak met us again to say good bye and wanted to know our feedback so they can improve further. We surely recommend Alligator Adventures and Safaris without any doubt. We wish Meschak, Francis and the Alligator Adventures and Safaris all the best.

5/5

We booked an 8 day safari across Kenya and Tanzania and we had an incredible experience! Right from the planning process to the execution and support during the trip - everything was perfect!
During the planning process, Meshack was very proactive and patient with answering l our questions and giving helpful recommendations.
When we landed in Kenya, he greeted us warmly at the airport and introduced us to our guide, Francis, who was very knowledgeable and organised.
Most importantly, the airlines (Saudia) lost our luggage and Meshack went out of his way to ensure that we got it back in record time and planned the delivery to us in Masai Mara. It made us feel truly supported and taken care of!
All our game drives were meticulously planned by Francis and we had some wonderful sightings!
The hotel arrangements and everything else was brilliantly taken care of as well!
Would most definitely go with them for subsequent bookings as well!

Very happy with our trip - gladly recommend!
5/5

We were away for a 10 day private Safari with Alligator Adventures Tours & Safaris in August 2022. We were both super happy with everything ranging from the initial planning stage to the trip itself.



In the planning stage Meshak was very helpful from start and made sure that we together with him planned a trip that would suit us and our preferences perfectly. He always answered fast and came with very good suggestions after hearing our thoughts and preferences.



The trip itself was also fantastic. After being warmly welcomed at the airport we set off with our guide, Edvin, who we were super happy with. He was both knowledgeable and kind, and always made sure that we got the best game drives and the best views. He always were able to answer our 1000 questions and always did so with a smile. Meanwhile, he also went above and beyond to make sure we had a good time and were happy and comfortable. Thank you!



Overall, we are super happy and would gladly recommend anyone else to travel with Alligator Adventures Tours & Safaris!

5/5

We booked a 7 days private safari tour via Alligator Adventures Tours (Maasai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha and Amboseli)

During requesting a quote and booking process, Meshak was very helpful, friendly and answered all our question (we had quite a lot of them :D).

We were kindly welcomed by Meshak and his colleague at the airport early in the morning and escorted to our car. After giving us all necessary instructions, we started our great tour.

The tour was very well organized and everything went as planned.

Big thanks to our great driver Francis! He was very professional, experienced and has a decent knowledge about all national parks that we visited.

We highly recommend this operator!

5/5

We booked a 5-day safari. Despite the fact that our luggage was delayed by the airline (we received it on the 5th and 7th day), we had a good holiday.
The first hotel was The Cliff, fantastic experience, fantastic hotel. We searched for negative points but did not find any. The food was remarkably good, in fact the best food during our entire holiday. This was definitely the best of the 3 hotels.
The next hotel was Leopard Hill Resort. Beautiful rooms, super friendly staff. The food was ok, but not fantastic, could be better.
The last hotel was Kilima (2 nights). Beautiful hotel, friendly staff, nice rooms.
Extra thanks to Alligator Adventure tours for picking up our delayed luggage and delivering it to our accommodation after the safari!

The best memories ever!
5/5

Having decided to celebrate my 70th by taking 4 of my children on safari in Kenya, I knew where and when I wanted to go – Little Governors, the best of the best safari camp there is, to watch the greatest herds migration in Africa in to the Masai Mara. Thankfully, I made contact with Meshack at Alligator Adventures, who proceeded to thoroughly plan and organise everything locally for our personalised and exclusive 5 day flying safari visit for the last week in July – to meeting us at Nairobi airport, transporting us to Wilson to fly out to the Masai Mara, 3 nights at Little Governors and our balloon trip, collecting us back at Wilson with his driver, Joseph, who filled in the timing gaps with the Giraffe Sanctuary/Croc farm etc and Carnivore Restaurant before our departure flight.
So thank you Alligator Adventures for being so professional, personal and flexible, despite what must have been some very difficult times over the last 2 years of the Covid pandemic, and giving myself and my children (38 down to 20!) the greatest African Adventure safari, that we will always remember - I have no hesitation in highly recommending them!

Reliable, knowledgable, friendly, accommodating company - our trip lived up to and above expectation
5/5

What an amazing holiday. Everything went smoothly, Meshack and Josef were very welcoming, we did loads in Nairobi I hadn’t expected to do which was a lovely surprise - Josef was very knowledgable throughout and flexible to take us wherever we wanted to go. The travel to the Masai Mara was excellent - our driver (Kirore - spelling?) there was very accommodating and also knowledgeable. We stayed at Governors & Little Governors - such helpful, polite, friendly staff, blown away (pun intended) by the balloon safari, the sites of both are perfect, everything very clean, all needs accommodated for. I travelled to Kenya 25 years ago and I do not remember there being such large groups of animals, we saw all the ‘Big 5’ bar the rhino which is very impressive for only 3 days in the Masai Mara! The animals all look healthy too - whatever the reserve are doing it is working! A fantastic time has by all - do I recommend Meshack and his company - absolutely yes!

Very well organised safari tour operator in Kenya
5/5

We did a 6-day safari tour in Kenya with 2 children (aged 9 and 10) organised by Alligator adventures and it was a very nice experience. First contact with the management was nice and efficient. We could tailor one of their tour according to our taste. Once in Kenya, everything went according to the plan. Our driver was very professional and friendly. He was a good tracker as well and, thanks to its perseverance and experience, we could see a lot of animals (among which the big five). We had asked for a land rover vehicle and we didn’t regret it as we could use all the small and sometimes chaotic roads to remote places in the parks where we could spot some of the rarest animals. The accommodations in the different lodges and camps they suggested were really nice and we always got family rooms (or tents) as we requested. Due to weather circumstances, some small adjustments were made in a efficient manner by our point of contact in the agency and well explained in advance. Our flight back home departed very late on the last day of our tour and the driver arranged an extra game drive before we left the Masai Mara NP and we could finally see a leopard thanks to that. He could also arrange a diner at Le Carnivore famous restaurant in Nairobi before he dropped us at the airport. There were really no flaws in the organisation and we all had a really great time in Kenya thanks to them.
