Great customer service and great value for cost. Highly recommend.
5/5

Overall, we highly recommend this safari company and plan to recommend it to family and friends. Great customer service and great value for cost.

We called Peter the day before we wanted to depart, asking for a 3 day 2 night trip to both Amboseli and Tsavo West. He made it happen and at a good price, and by the next morning we were on our way!

We stayed at Amboseli Serena one night then Kilaguni Serena in Tsavo West. Both were absolutely beautiful accommodations and given it is off season, we practically had the places to ourselves.

Antony, our driver and guide, took great care of us during our trip. He was very informative, friendly, and positive. The car was also comfortable and stocked with plenty of clean bottled water in a cooler. He even took us on an extra early game drive, which allowed us to catch a glimpse of Mt Kilimanjaro before the cloud cover returned.

During our trip we were able to see lions, giraffes, elephants (lots of em!), flamingos, crocodiles, hippos, buffalo, and more - we were even lucky enough to see a serval cat and a leopard!

We loved our safari. Asante sana!

nice and professional guidance, real tailored trip.
5/5

I book a luxury trip, the accommodation is money-worth. all lodge & camp are located in the national park, so no need to drive out of national park after the long time game drive.

a big THANKS to our driver Simon, very kind and professional. due to the unexpected rain we didn't see the Kilimanjaro as planned, but the next morning Simon made a minor adjustment on our trip plan, so we can see it. he always try his best to meet my request.

all in all, It is a worthy choice.

An above and beyond safari with Africa Flash!
5/5

I can't thank Peter (owner of the company) and John (my safari guide) enough! I am a young solo traveller and they made me feel so comfortable and well looked after for the entirety of the trip. I did a lot of research before the safari and Flash McTours definitely seemed like the best way to go!

I stayed at Zebra Plains camp, a stunning location, great food and the staff were amazing. It was also located near a shortcut into the park where we saw a lot of animals on the game drives - plenty of lions, cheetahs and even some elephants towards the end. I would also recommend taking a 4x4 jeep as some of the roads are hard to get to and if you want to have the best experience you need a good car!

From the pick up to the drop off everything was perfect, my guide John was great company and kept me well informed along the way. I got to meet Peter at the end of my trip which was such a nice way to conclude the safari. Hopefully I'll be back soon to do another safari with these guys, cannot recommend them enough!

Asante sana!

An unforgettable experience
5/5

We booked a 6-day safari with ‘Africa Flash McTours’ to the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli and email communication with Peter (company director) was prompt and straightforward. The whole experience was superb: very professional, competitively priced; a comfortable 4-wheel drive vehicle; highly knowledgeable and skilled driver (John); wonderful luxury accommodation within the game parks and many opportunities to see the ‘Big Five’ as well as a fantastic range of birds and other wildlife. The schedule was realistic and, although there was a lot of driving, we loved seeing Kenya’s varied landscapes, peoples and culture as we drove between areas. John (our driver/guide) was amazing: friendly and easy to be with; an excellent driver across all terrains, well qualified with an extensive knowledge of wildlife and their habits; considerate of our safety and comfort throughout trip; responsive to our questions and interests. We cannot recommend ‘Africa Flash McTours’ too highly.

Gorgeous and incredible safari
5/5

I (50 years German) was travelling on my own at a very short notice. My objectives were:
- to do a revival of a safari I did 30 years ago, and
- to see as many wild animals and nature as possible, and
- to travel in a group as small as possible (preferably on my own).
I have identified Flash Mc Safari via the internet – Flash Mc does safaris for small groups, mostly couples but also single-travelers.
Although the planning period was just a week Peter organized the 1-week-safari + Nairobi-surroundings via eMail in a very efficient, dedicated and professional way. The trip itself was perfectly organized from the beginning to the end. Everything – accommodation, food, and transportation – was very, very comfortable. The hotels / lodges were picked thoroughly and offered every comfort – no wishes were left open. Even forgotten stuff was picked up and sent behind! The transportation in a big jeep (which can carry up to 7 travelers) was very spacy and comfortable – also long leg space is available.
I was supposed to travel with one guide – John – who did a great job. Unfortunately he had to leave after 2 days for unforeseen and urgent family reasons. So, another guide – Edward – has taken over my safari. The change of the guide was done very professional and without disturbing my safari at all. Both guides were very friendly and had extensive knowledge of the wildlife, the nature and the country. Both were a very pleasant company, and both were excellent in identifying the right spots to see the big five and other wildlife. I have even seen a white Elephant baby and two fighting Rhinos. I saw Kilimanjaro with snow and each and every animal from short to very short distance.
Since I was travelling on my own there were no ‘group-dynamics’ in the car – we took as many time at each spot according to my wishes. So, the safari was not only full of experiences and pictures. It was also very relaxing. All three parks – Maasai Mara, Nakuru, and Amboseli – were very exciting. It was just great to see all these animals in untouched nature.
I highly recommend Flash Mc Tours for safaris in Kenya or Kenya/Tanzania-combo. And I highly recommend to travel in a group as small as possible.
Flash Mc has very professional guides, equipment and knowledge. They have met all my expectations and did everything to make my trip an unforgettable one.

Everything we wanted in four days
5/5

We (two women in their mid-twenties) wanted to see as much of Kenya's wildlife in a few days and in an affordable way as possible. Getting around in Kenya without a guide is not always easy, so we opted for this planned tour and did not regret it.
Our guide, Anthony, was exceptionally nice and friendly! He knew a lot about the animals and wanted to give us the best experience possible. Planning the tour beforehand with Peter was very simple via Mail and Whatsapp.
We started our tour in Mombasa and got picked up and dropped off at our AirBnB-places without difficulties. The tour itself is in a van with enough space for seven people, so we really enjoyed the space and as far as we know, no more than four people are driven in these; so definitely enough space for everybody to comfortably watch the animals.

We saw all the Big Five except the Rhino. Tsavo East was filled with animals - we stayed at Aruba Lodge (very peaceful and quiet with very good food). In Tsavo West the landscape is amazing - we stayed an Ngulia Lodge (great view over the Valley, waterhole next to the restaurant and they hang out meat - so huge guarantee to see a leopard. We saw two, actually, but the hotel itself is not very convincing). In Amboseli the Kibo Lodge with view of the Kilimanjaro and tented lodges was very cute and even more lively than Tsavo East. A picture with the mountain and elephants is definitely a must!

Overall, we enjoyed it very much and would recommend it to our friends.
Thank you very much!

Best trip ever !!
5/5

Africa Flash McTours took care of us from A to Z. Peter made sure we have everything we need from the time we arrived until the end of our trip.

John did such a great job showing us spots and explaining everything as we were doing the game ride and above all answered all of our questions. If you want a well organized private Safari tour it's here.

Hotels, tours and excursions, guide and the jeep was very comfortable.

I rate this 10 out of 10.

Thanks a lot Peter !!

A really professionally run company with great and knowledgeable guides
5/5

At every stage in the planning, booking adjustments and overall service - this is a very good company indeed. We had been recommended by two of our friends who travelled with Flash MCTours a few weeks before. They were in our initial list of 5 safari from Safaribookings.com companies, so they got our vote for that as well.
Edward, our driver was a great guy...articulate and very knowledgeable about the environment and the animals.
We had just finished a Safari in Tanzania to lake Manyara, the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti - so had a wish list of things to do/see....Edward did his best and we achieved most of our objectives.
I would thoroughly recommend Flash MCTours.
Our planner Peter was friendly, efficient and totally professional. At one of the lodges, Ashnil, we were put into the wrong room and following our email, he managed to get us a rebate from the hotel company - which arrived back using Paypal within minutes.
