Highly recommend Explorer Kenya
Explorer Kenya far exceeded my expectations. I traveled with a group of 11, with daily transportation in Nairobi. Lucas and Anthony were with our group all week and shared a wealth of knowledge about the area. They were dependable and friendly and made us feel welcome in Kenya.
After 8 days in Nairobi we went to the Maasai Mara. Lucas, Martin and Simon took us on safari. I expected to be amazed, but our tour guides took it to the next level with binoculars, books about the game birds and animals, and it was wonderful to see that they just as enthusiastic as we were to see the animals.
Thank you again for an incredible introduction to Kenya!

Truly Amazing
Our group had the most spectacular experience with Explorer Kenya. Our guide Simon was so experienced, pleasant and humorous. He knew exactly how the animals would behave to maximize our views. His knowledge of the wildlife was absolute perfection. We absolutely loved him. The entire outfit is a class act. We even saw the highly rare spotted zebra!!!
Would recommend Explorers Kenay to everyone who wants a magical experience.

Great Safari on the Masai Mara
Overall excellent trip. The staff was quite flexible and made an effort to take us where interesting things and animals were to be found. I had the pleasure of driving with two different drivers and one was more attuned to stopping in good photo spots than the other but both were quite knowledgeable about the area and wildlife.

Nairobi and Masai Mara
I was part of a groups of 11 traveling as a medical mission to Nairobi where we spent 6 days. Our drivers were Lukas and Antony and they could not have been better. Their kindness, humor and calmness in all situations made traveling throughout Nairobi a fun adventure. Explorer Kenya had comfortable vans and their communication was always fast and clear.
At the end of our week in Nairobi we spent three days at Masai Mara National Park. For this part of our trip we had Lukas and Simon. Lukas was as wonderful for this leg of the journey as he was in Nairobi. He even went above and beyond and met us one evening to walk out out on the ride so we could see the giraffes moving across the plane. It was an amazing thing to see.
I rode mostly in Simon’s Land Cruiser and he was an amazing guide. He has a sixth sense about where the animals would be and his eagle eye spotted animals no one else saw. On top of being a knowledgeable guide he is funny and so kind. The Land Cruisers were the perfect vehicle for game drives and we really appreciated the water supplies by Explorer Kenya.
All in all I could not recommend Explorer Kenya more. Lucas, Antony and Simon are top notch and I hope to be able to make a trip back to Kenya to see them again.

a memorable experience
I took on a 3 day trip to Tsavo East National park, i must say the trip was exciting,my tour guide Mr Maina was well knowledgeable about the wildlife he is also well familiar with the terrain so we wasted no time,his observation skills cannot be matched. He was very keen on the road and he made sure we all got enough time in viewing the animals.I am certainly looking forward to more trips with explorer Kenya.

Martin was a great guide! He's very knowledgeable about all things at Masai Mara!
The safari tour itself was a once in a lifetime experience, and our guide, Martin, made this for us. We got to see so much and he was very knowledgeable about the park. He accommodated our needs and changes in time and he was very respectful to us and to the animals. We loved our safari with him!

Asked Rob for about 8-12 landcruisers worth of standard and a few unusual safaris, around Kenya
Far and away the best value operator in the country. There are thousands of choices, many fake reviews and fluffing up tour descriptions out there, and EK's are by far the best. In general, they know the whole country cold and very carefully choose all of their guides and drivers and their cruisers are the top shape. You will save time and cash by just booking with them and forgetting days of google searches and bargaining. Cannot recommend them enough and have been using them for years now for Kenya and are resourceful with all of the common sense but also service sense somewhat lacking with other tour outfits.

It was an excellent experience.
We were given all the information we need on time, our driver was well experienced and humble and he had a lot of knowledge about the animals, birds and the flora we saw. we had a good experience and our expectations were met. Simon Kagiri was our driver and even thought it was a 2 days safari the experience was the best. our vehicle was a safari land cruiser and it was comfortable for the long drive to Tsavo West and around the park and back. we were picked up on time at 0730hrs and we arrived at the lodge in time for lunch. Thank you Robert for arranging the safari and i would recommend Explorer Kenya to anyone wanting to do a safari in Kenya
