Meru and Kora National Parks
I was looking for a very specific safari itinerary in Kenya which had to include a day in the very remote Kora National Park. The reason behind this requirement is of my personal connection with Christian the lion that was bought from Harrods and subsequently rehabilitated into the wild in Kora by George Adamson in the early 1970s.
I had contacted several reputable safari providers with my requirements. Only Banok Safaris were willing and able to meet my needs. Banok answered all my questions promptly and honestly. They provided me with several accommodation options in Meru National Park which would be the base from where I would travel to Kora (there is no accommodation in Kora) and suitable 3 to 5 day itineraries with a fully detailed quote for each.
Having chosen an itinerary and booked flights, Banok also arranged 1 night hotel stay near Nairobi Airport on the day before the start of the safari due to the late arrival into Nairobi which is a 6/7 hour journey to Meru. I was met at Nairobi Airport by a representative of Banok and transferred to the hotel. The next morning I met my Safari guide Jackson, for the journey to Ikweta Safari Lodge in Meru.
Ikweta is a very pleasant and comfortable lodge. My day in Kora was amazing with a visit to Kambi Ya Simba (Camp of the Lions) which is where George Adamson lived and rehabilitated lions including Christian. Visited George Adamsons grave, the Tana River and Kora Inselbergs Rocks.
The other 4 days were spent in bush drives in Meru which is teeming with wild life including the big 5.
I would whole heartedly and without hesitation recommend Banok Safaris. The service provided was outstanding both in listening to my requirements and catering to those requirements and made the whole booking process simple and straightforward. My guide, Jackson was excellent and knowledgeable and made the experience unique.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable safari experience in Kenya & Tanzania

We had an amazing safari experience with Pedaso Safaris, travelling through Kenya and Tanzania. From the very beginning, David was extremely responsive, helpful and patient, always replying to our messages quickly and making sure everything was well organised throughout the trip.
The highlight was, of course, the incredible wildlife and landscapes. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five, as well as giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, wildebeest, elephants, lions and so many other animals. Seeing these animals in their natural environment, surrounded by the beautiful landscapes of Kenya and Tanzania, was truly unforgettable.
We particularly loved our guide in Tanzania. He was patient, knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about wildlife. Every day, he carefully explained our schedule and, most importantly, took the time to look for animals with us, rather than simply rushing from one location to another or following the radio to chase sightings. This made the experience feel much more personal and authentic.
The mid-range accommodations were also very good, comfortable and well located, especially considering the long days spent on safari.
Overall, this was a wonderful adventure and a trip we will remember for a very long time. Thank you to David and the whole Pedaso Safaris team for making our Kenya & Tanzania safari such a special experience! 🦁🦒🐘🦓

Amazing safari, incredible wildlife and the best guide, Isaac. A new brother! ❤️
What an amazing safari experience in Kenya! We started at Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru, followed by two days in the Maasai Mara. Everything was perfectly organised and the accommodations were great.
Our guide Isaac made the safari truly special. He is known as one of the best guides, and we quickly understood why. On the first day, a leopard walked right past our bus, giving us an incredible view. On the second day, Isaac himself spotted another leopard from about a kilometre away, while we couldn’t see anything in the bushes. We were the first ones there, before all the other safari vehicles arrived.
Thanks to Isaac, we saw the entire Big Five, as well as cheetahs, jackals, foxes and so many other animals. The visit to a Maasai village was also a great addition.
We started this safari as two brothers, but we came home with a new brother: Isaac. ❤️
An unforgettable experience!

Best Safari Company.
Our three days with Suricata Safaris went smoothly in every way. While Ngorongoro was an amazing part of the trip, we also appreciated the various landscapes in Tarangire and Lake Manyara. Jeremy was composed, professional, and obviously very knowledgeable. His familiarity with the region greatly enhanced our comprehension and appreciation of the wildlife.

Highly recommended!
We had a fantastic safari in Kenya with Amazing Memories. From the beginning, Nevill was very nice and helpful with all the pre-trip planning and communication. He answered our questions patiently and made the booking process easy.
Our guide, Eliud, was exceptional. He is highly experienced, very patient with the wildlife, and knows so many shortcuts and back routes, which made our game drives even better. The itinerary was well planned, and all the room arrangements went smoothly—there were no last-minute room changes, which we really appreciated.
When someone in our group got sick, Eliud immediately took us to the hospital and went out of his way to help us with everything. We were truly grateful. Overall, Amazing Memories gave us a wonderful, reliable, and memorable safari experience. I highly recommend them!

Excellent
I travels solo to Serengeti, the trip was organised by Simba who was always available to help and adjust the itinerary to my preferences.
For the tour, I was with Daniel . He was patient, kind and always willing to help other tour operators when the need arises. Travelling as a female solo traveler, I felt safe under his care.
I saw the big 5 within my tour( 3 nights and 4 days) . I would recommend Daniel as a tour operator for Serengeti and Simba to plan the itinerary .

Jeremy Made the Safari Even Better
The parks were amazing, but having an experienced guide made a big difference. Jeremy from Suricata Safaris was professional, friendly and clearly very experienced. He helped us understand details we might have missed otherwise and was always willing to explain what we were seeing. This four-day safari was unforgettable because of the combination of Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and Ngorongoro.
