Fabulous, we recommend with eyes closed.
5/5

We chose the Mufasa company to visit Lake Naivasha, the hot springs of Lake Elementary as well as the Great Rift Valley. We had a very nice stay.
In addition, I would like to congratulate their professionalism. I spoke to Joseph, the owner, and explained to him that we had to leave kenya in 2 days, that we would first have to do a covid test to be able to make the visit, he offered to take us to do the test by picking us up from the hotel before starting the visit. In addition, we only had euros with us and the day before I told him that we wanted to change the currency into shilling, despite all the offices being closed, because very early in the morning they found a solution and we were able to change the currency.

We had made the excursion with Nelson (the driver) who is also very professional, a very nice man, smiling, and very helpful, we kept in touch with Nelson who is now our friend. Thank you for this unforgettable moment spent with you.

I highly recommend the Mufasa company 100%. Go ahead with your eyes closed.

Wonderful 6-Day Safari 10/2021
5/5

We booked a 6 day Safari with Mufasa Tours. Joseph the owner was very professional and if you had a question or anything else, he took care of it and gave answer within minutes. Very great Service - Thank you! We went to Amboseli - Lake Nakuru - Masai Mara with the Jeep. We can recommend the trip and also Kepha our driver. He was always on a good mood and explained us everything and was joking with us.
The program we choosed was also nice and we can only say thank you! The Safari was amazing and we also saw the Big 5.
When we travel again to Kenya we will book again with Mufasa!

Excellent choice for safari in Kenya!
5/5

Our kenyan adventure was extremely nice due to Peter, our guide who ensured our safety and made us follow an itinerary that helped us see all the animals there were to see: lion, cheetah, leopard, migration of gnus, elephants and many others. Communication with the agency was great and prices were fair. Accomodation in Amboseli, Nakuru and Masai Mara were clean and with great food. Also recommended, the Masai cultural village visit. It's really worth the hype.

Amazing experience!
5/5

We've had 6 days private safari: Amboseli - Nakuru - Maasai Mara. All our wishes were taken into account and fitted in our journey. Joseph provided us the great advices, always ready to respond to our requests. The accomodation was well chosen, in great locations, with friendly staff and good food.
The service provided by our guide, Peter, was at the highest level. With great sense of humour, Peter was very knowledgeable and very punctual. Thank you, Peter, Best wishes and good luck!

Exactly what you want from a tour company
5/5

Excellent! I don't even know where to start with this review, because every aspect of my experience with Mufasa Tours was wonderful. Their communication before the trip was great, and gave me fantastic recommendations. When the first lodging fell through (not their fault at all), they immediately found an amazing place. They set me up with an amazing guide, Mike, who was knowledgable, kind, and fun! Every detail of my trip was taken care of by Tony and Joseph. It was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life and that was in large part because of Mufasa tours -- thank you again!

Great experience
5/5

We did a 3 day Safari to Maasai Mara with Mufasa. The booking experience was easy. We communicated with Joseph who was quick to reply to messages, which I appreciated. He also sent us a packet with the different tour options which answered a lot of my questions and made it easier to book. In terms of pricing, they were competitive with other operators and it was great value for the money. Our tour guide (also named Joseph!), was very knowledgable and gave us a lot of details of various animals. We got to see all the major animals up close with the exception of the rhino, which is pretty rare. We went with the land cruiser option which had plugs to charge our phones and bottles of water which was a nice touch. Also, the roads were pretty rough, especially after it rained so I think it was a better option over the vans. Overall, I'd recommend Mufasa Tours and Travels!

Professional and Passionate about giving great service.
5/5

I just got back form a 4 night /5 day safari with Mufasa, from start to finish it was excellent, well-executed, communication superb, great value and a wonderful guide.
I originally booked solo and 4 days before my safari 2 others joined me, Joesph worked out all the details, secured the extra rooms, and kept in touch with me promptly about everything.
Once w arrived in Kenya , the next day we were met by our super guide Kevin! Words can't describe his passion for the birds and wildlife, he's smart, educated and easy going. we had a wonderful time and lots of laughs with him. Highly recommend him!!!
We saw more than I ever dreamed of, even a crossing of the Wildebeest during the migration. Exceptional !!!
Lodges and food were great and would not hesitate to book again. We are actually looking at the Serengeti with Mufasa in late November.
I was also very impressed that Joesph cane to see me the night after the tour to make sure everything was great and that we were happy customers. He truly wants to give a great experience.!! Book with them, you will not be disappointed.

Yes! Mufasa Tours and Travels Provided a Trip of a Lifetime
5/5

You may have been searching https://www.SafariBookings.com for a Kenyan safari, and found many choices.
By using SafariBookings, you are presented with a wide array of locations, days, and budgets for safaris, much like using Kayak or Priceline for general travel.

After narrowing down the tour companies based on the reviews, number of days (10), and our budget (mid-level), my wife and I chose the 10 day Kenya safari from Mufasa Tours and Travels, and couldn’t be happier with the results

Although you may have concerns and questions booking a tour half-way around the world, Joseph at Mufasa was very professional and responsive to our many questions.

We also need to give high praise for our guide/driver, Kevin. His knowledge of ornithology (birds), wildlife, terrain, plants and culture of Kenya provided an unforgettable adventure and education about Kenya.

For some of the East Kenya safaris, you will find they visit the same locations, but may be in a different order.

Our safari took us to:
start in Nairobi
Amboseli
Aberdare
Samburu
Lake Nakuru
Lake Naivasha
Masai Mara
back to Nairobi

The trip took place the last weeks of August, and first week of September, with the weather mostly around 80F/27C in the day, and 60F/16C at night.

Of course Kevin helped track down the Big 5 (lion, leopard, rhino, elephant and buffalo), along with giraffe, cheetah, hyena, jackal, serval, warthog, hippo, impala, wildebeest, hartebeest, waterbuck, oryx, dik-dik, gazelle, and probably 100+ different species of birds (sorry Kevin, too many to list)!

Can you tell the difference between a plains zebra and a Grevy’s zebra? Or a Masai and reticulated giraffe? Now we can!

The accommodations at the tents/lodges were excellent, and the staff at each location was attentive, friendly, and helpful. Our favorite was either one of the Zebra Plains, giving us a camping vibe, in a relaxing resort setting.

Also our complements to the chef at each location, for providing an international menu, and foods that also satisfied our American palate.

Ask for Kevin as your guide/driver. He is a patient teacher, conscience of the importance for the conservancy of nature in Kenya, and very kind to us and the people we came in contact with.

On second thought, don’t ask for Kevin, we want to be sure he’s available for our next safari!

You can’t go wrong choosing Mufasa Tours and Travels for your next adventure.
