Impressive. We were well taken care of, and got to enjoy a fully immersive Safari!
5/5

I've been on Safaris before but few lived up to the recent one taken with Native Africa Trails
David, our guide, knew the best locations, was very knowledgeable (he's been doing this for too long!) and suggested all the right safari moves to make. Yet he was also very accommodating to any of our requests.
We ended up spending more time in the vehicle than in the hotel, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I learnt more than any other safari trip I've been on and enjoyed every moment.

Amazing Safari. Mwangi we are greatful.
5/5

we booked a 6 days safari with Native Africa Trails.Every aspect of our vacation was professionally organized with a personal touch and in consideration of small things that really mattered to me.considering i was to propose to my spouse on this trip,something we kept on secret with charity tour consultant until the last evening safari and we had a fantastic sundowner in the savannah with champagne.
our well seasoned and professional guide Mwangi took us through from Samburu,Aberdares,Lake Nakuru and finally to Africa's best kept secret the Masai mara.He kept us well informed and his love and passion for wildlife,culture and conversation was unrivaled.charity choices of small luxury tented campos surpassed our expectations.Elephant bedroom,sweetwaters,kiangazi house and Enkewe camps staff.thankyou for wonderful hospitality.Can't wait to come back sometime next year probably more days.would Greately recommend.

Great Adventure
5/5

Great Adventure

We did a tour to Tanzania through Mara Serena. The driver, Mr. Mwangi did dexterous driving through muddy terrains from Mara to the border of Tanzania. Due to the heavy rains the shortest route to the border was obstructed by floods. The alternative route was too long and tiring. After consulting with his colleague, Mr. Mwangi embarked on a treacherous, winded and muddy road to bypass the flooded road. He managed to get us through the mud and to the border on time;saving precious time since my wife was pregnant. We were fortunate to experience elephants wanting to charge at us while at close proximity. Mr Mwangi's adventurous driving skills gave us riveting pictures, videos and the much needed adrenaline fixes.

Tanzania is where we spent most of the holiday with Elisha who was quite excellent. We learnt a lot about the country and the parks especially the TseTse flies that cause sleeping sickness. The flies had quite a liking to Elisha for some reason....just kidding. The Serena hotels in the Serengeti was somewhat disappointing from the service point of view. However at NgoroNgoro the Serena there was at per with the Kenyan excellent service we have been accustomed to.

Amazing safari
5/5

Kenyan safari has been part of our dreams for a long time.I was anxious and while going through internet in search of perfect Safari I came across Native Africa Trails and decided to drop an email to them .In few minutes Charity responded with varieties of different programs and we were confused and choices since they all looked amazing .After few email exchanges putting in consideration that my sister in-law was joining us and had a 6 year old son Charity suggested 5 days Safari and hotels that were children friendly .On the first day Charity came to see us off at the hotel and after a short briefing we were introduced to our guide Tom.Tom showed great skills in navigating through difficult terrain in the park ,he was more than we could have asked and professional ,can’t forget at one point he stopped the Jeep pointing to a dung beetle, how he spotted this we got no idea .The whole experience was out of this world.All this thanks to Native Africa Trails and the team.We highly recommend booking with them.Ahsateni sana.

Fabulous holiday
5/5

Our 8 day kenya classic safari with Native Africa trails was beyond our expectations,Right from initial email with Mwangi, it was certain we were in good hands. Our safari guide Chris was knowledgeable,kind and funny and always was there with answers to every question..ranging from wildlife,culture and birding,
Chris made sure we had the best photography spot,he knew very well how to position his jeep without violating the animals and their space.
The entire team of Native Africa Trails made sure we enjoyed every part of our family holiday by ensuring our comfort in their hand picked camps from Ashnil camp in Samburu,ol pejeta house in laikipia,sawela in Naivasha and finally Entim camp in Mara.
We recommended them to our family and friends and are booked for this year summer holidays.

We can't hesitate to recommend Native Africa Trails.

Asante Sana- Great Safari Experience and Reliable People
5/5

My family and I were going through our Kenyan safari memories and remembered I had not shared a review on our trip on this platform with fellow travelers. We visited Kenya for a 7 days family safari where we had a great time and are now saving up for another trip in November this year .We spent more 3 nights in the Masai Mara and only 2 nights in Lake Naivasha. Our budget budget was tight but our excitements was high,so we all decided to shop for nice packages at the most affordable price .Some of our friends from Ireland recommended Native Africa Trails, a boutique company they had used them before. We are glad we listened to our friends because everything was beyond our expectations from a small local tour operator. Mwangi was very professional and knowledgeable portraying a lot of integrity. The choice of hotels was great and the safari jeep was in good condition. The Masai Mara was the highlight of our trip and would recommend staying there for at least 3 nights to make the best use of it. We cannot wait to go back and dance with the Masai and possibly have fun with the giraffes at the giraffe center.

Magical December Holiday
5/5

What a trip!!! David, you are an absolute treat and certainly our new friend and favorite person in Kenya. For those that don’t know, my friend and I traveled to Kenya on holiday. We are two mid 20’s girls and David could not have made us feel any more safe, happy and welcomed. David is incredibly knowledgeable of Kenya, animals, the migration etc. hoping to come back to Kenya in the next 3 years (will try a new park and fly out to Zanzibar) and I will certainly reach back out to David! Thanks again David, Amboseli National Park’s magic came to life because of YOU!

Our 4-day masai mara and lake Nakuru safari was possibly one of the best experiences ever! Mwangi our guide took care of every detail, he was also extremely knowledgeable about everything we saw. The accomodation provided was unforgettable.

The Perfect Partner for your African Safari
5/5

Nakuru, Naivasha & Masai Mara was a wonderful experience and even more so thanks to Native Africa Travels (NAT). The pre-travel planning phase was an easy one with regular effective communication from NAT. The itinerary was planned keeping in mind our preferences along with inputs and suggestions from the tour operator so that we could have a holistic experience. All arrangements were done seamlessly and we had no problems communicating over emails. In terms of preparing us for the travel, all instructions regarding vaccinations and other things were communicated. On arrival, we were well received by Ms. Charity who explained our upcoming tour and things entailing that. We were introduced to our driver and guide Michael, who was excellent in terms of taking us from one location to another, the game drives and in general very knowledgeable about the different animals, history and culture. NAT was enthusiastic, supportive and hospitable, and the arrangments were perfect - from having enough bottled water to accommodation locations and meal set up. I wholeheartedly recommend Native Africa Travels.
