Great excursion and communication
5/5

Great excursion in Mombassa. Communication was timely and thorough. We were met at the port as arranged. John and the driver assisted us to safely find an ATM at the beginning of the day. Driver very attentive. Would recommend - thx for a great day in Mombassa!

Excellent communication, great safari & accommodation
5/5

John and his crew provided a great Safari experience. Choice of lodges was excellent. Their guides were knowledgeable and caring. Other guests were great companions. The vans were surprisingly roomy, versatile and robust but the extra cost of 4x4 might be worth it.

Well coordinated tour and itinerary
5/5

We wanted to squeeze in a safari in 4 days to take advantage of a layover in Nairobi. John exceeded our expectations and made it all happen with an experience rich itinerary! From our pickup at the airport, our transfer to Masai Mara Park , our stay at Mara Sopa Lodge and the incredible safaris, everything ran pleasantly and like clockwork. We had only to show up!
Mara Sopa lodge is a 3 Star resort that delivers a 5 star experience. The staff is friendly and attentive, just lovely. Denis our driver and guide was conscientious and knowledgeable about the park and the wildlife, and worked hard to give us the best possible adventure. We added in a visit to a Masai village on our last day and we highly recommend this option. The Masai generously welcomed us into their homes to experience firsthand their lifestyle. Really, it couldn't have been better.

We had an amazing time in Amboseli National Park, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. John organized all very well and our driver Steven was perfect. We highly recommend choosing CKC Tours and Travel.

Outstanding organisation of travel, accommodation, safari and personnel.
5/5

The most incredible safari.
Well done John at CKC Tours. All travel arrangements were 100% efficient and the accommodation and game lodges outstanding. The rangers were very knowledgeable and the annual migration was a wonderous sight to behold.
We were so sad to leave your beautiful country and miss all the friendly, smiling faces.
We highly recommend your company and would love to return.

Efficient, professional, caring and great value
5/5

John is absolutely the BEST in dealing with and responding to emails.nothing to much trouble. Our second time for using them.
We combined a safari with time working at a small village caring for orphans that we have worked with for 15 years. Our driver was equally as committed to helping us in many ways.
The Safari was well organised and again nothing was to much trouble.
No hesitation in using them again.

John from CKC was a good communicator, reliable and very helpful. The vehicle provided was perfect.
5/5

We hired a vehicle and driver through John, CKC, both organized by John. We booked the service before leaving Australia. John maintained contact with us throughout. He was able to secure our driver/guide, George, who was fantastic. The vehicle was very comfortable.
We visited Tsavo East, on a private tour, quite a drive away from Nairobi. We considered a self-drive, but very pleased we didn't. George was amazing in the madness of Kenyan highway driving.

We'd have no hesitation in recommending CKC and John if you are considering a private tour of Kenya. Excellent value for money.

Amazing experience!! best tour operator that deserves 10 stars!!
5/5

Just returned from a 7-Day Tsavo West-Amboseli-Nakuru-Mara-Lodge tour (from Nairobi to Mombasa ) ended at Diani beach and had an incredible holiday and safari! I can't recommend CKC Tours and Travel highly enough. Manager John is very friendly, professional and helpful. I have booked a shared tour but ended up being just me for the last few days. The trip was amazing and very well organised with excellent hotel choices especially the various Sopa Lodges and the Killaguney Serena Lodge with nice rooms and delicious food . I saw the Big 5 and many more wonderful animals . My drivers were amazing at spotting them in the distance! The drivers also were very knowledgable and told me a lot about the animals and their country. The price of the tour is probably the best in Nairobi.
Thank you CKC for making my dream come true !
