Great Experience, Fantastic Time
Big Thanks to Jonathan for a fantastic Time at Ol Pejeta Conservancy
What a fantastic start to our time in Kenya, a few days up at Ol Pejeta Conservancy, where our guide Jonathan Maina was always on hand to help in anyway. We were collected from a hotel in Nairobi, and driven up to the Conservancy in time for lunch followed by a game drive that afternoon. Those roads of Nairobi are something else, but Jonathan manoeuvred his way through skilfully. We had a stunning time at the Conservancy, the location is great with a water hole overload by the accommodation, which was visited by a whole range of animals. Jonathon took us out on drives each morning and afternoon, and was full of knowledge about the animals and the area, and good company. Nothing was too much trouble and he was always on hand to ensure things went smoothly. Our trip was well planned to ensure we got the best experience at Ol Pejeta, and it was sad to take the trip back to Nairobi for our next adventure at the Maasai Mara.
I can totally recommend Jonathan as a guide, he was great fun, I have never seen as many Zebra Crossings!!
An experience unlike any other
The trip was unbelievable from start to finish. Before the trip began Explorer Kenya gave us a indepth itinerary of the entire week and were responsive and detailed in all our email correspondence. When we arrived our tour guide and driver David was there and ready to go. We drove to our first resort and it was an exceptional beautiful place with an extraordinary staff. We saw such incredible scenery and so much wildlife, and the whole trip was made even better by our fantastic tour guide David, who was charismatic, funny, and very knowledgable about all the wildlife as well as the country and its people. Over the course of a week we traveled to Maasai Mara, Hell's Gate National Park at Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli national park. During that time we saw lions, giraffes, wildebeest, crocodiles, elephants, and even a cheetah. It was truly an experience unlike any other.

Masai Mara unforgettable 4-day trip
Unforgettable 4 days Safari in Masai Mara
Me and my partner we had a great time thanks to Explorer Kenya. Prior to our Safari trip we stayed in contact with Explorer Kenya workers who provided me with accurate information with a prompt response every time i made an inquiry. Afterwards i decided to book 4 days- trip in Masai Mara interacting with animals. We were lucky to have Jonathan Maina an experienced driver-guide appointed to us for the 4 days game drive.
Jonathan Maina drove safely & always on time for any appointment we've agreed on , he was always eager for us to be able to spot big animals ( Leopard, Cheetah, Lions, zebra & Wildebeest migration...). Jonathan was in a full communication with other guides to find out what they have spotted.
During our trip we saw plenty of animals exceeding about 20 species, the only animal we didn't see is Rhino & animal migration. We spotted mating lions, lions with a kill, lions with cubs, family lions of 2 adult male 3 adult female and one male cub old enough so that males were chasing it from the family, this family had a kill of baby hippo. Spotted leopard with a kill climbed tree, leopard coming from drinking water, 4 Cheetahs hunting together ( the hunt didn't finish as gazelle had already spotted them).

Awesome!
Douglas was our tour guide for our safaris and he was amazing! He knew a lot about the wildlife which was quite helpful. As I am a wildlife photographer and because of his knowledge and skills about wildlife I was able to get good images. He was courteous and always on time ... I highly recommend him as a safari guide.

Truly amazing, once in a lifetime experience with Explore Kenya!
We had Jonathan as our guide who is very professional, always on-time, never says no to any request + very experienced and knows where to find the animals and predicts how they would behave. The company also has a very professional service, super responsive and had no hassle at all at any point. They were flexible enough to make changes to the itinerary to improve our experience.

it was excellent , adventure and courage trip and outstanding feature of animal crossing river.
It has been guided very friendly & professional manner, we thank special to Mr. Martin Kamau, the one guide took us well and full-filled our entire day on entire trip with much patience and he has explained well about each and everything during safari.
We thank to Ms. Purity Kiruki the coordinator of Kenya Explorer, the one given guidelines from beginning till end.
we suggest everyone has to visit Kenya safari to get something difference wild experience which we wont get anywhere in this world and we are always guest in safari (for Animals) , as we should not spoil / disturb / pollute their Kingdom at any cost at any time.
there is no replacement for Wild-life & it is very wonder/ surprise to see that still people are living with their own traditional life style !

The tour was very well organized and safe
We were able to insert some private requests and really did a tailored tour. Management was really helpful to organise it with us.
Everything was super organised and on time since arrival at airport to departure.
The resorts were very nice with very good food.
The Toyota car was comfortable and clean and our driver Jonathan was just super nice, always going the extra mile for customer and always safe and respectful of rules.
Definitely a very well organization tour. We will use them again for sure.
A very pleasant experience indeed.
