Wonderful experience!
They were wonderful! We customized our trip and saw everything we could fit in! They were timely, friendly and reliable. Our accommodations were wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. We will use them again!

A superb experience
I made a trip to Kenya last July and, after a lot of research finding reputable tour operators, I found Kenan Travel & Tours. Since the very first moment I wrote an email requesting information, the communication was friendly and concise. I was in touch with Geoprhey Mghanga from the beginning and during all the travel. He always answered promptly the tons of questions I made and he always tried to find an alternative for satysfing my requests. The result was a trip including a day trip in Nairobi, a three-day safari in Masai Mara and three days in Mombasa. Everything that was established in the contract was met to the letter. The safari was a join group safari, the driver/guide was excellent finding wildlife (we saw a group of lionesses tryng to catch wildbeasts) and the accommodation (Mara Chui Resort) was amazing. Also, the accomodation in Mombasa (Voyager Beach Resort) was very well, including a show of Masai dancers. All the transfers were on time, the guides had a lot of knowledge and, without hesitation, I will choose Kenan Travel in any future visit to the amazing country of Kenya.

Amazing safari
It all started with good communication with Geophrey. Emails were promptly replied and when we arrived, Jane was there to pick us up. She was very friendly and briefly explain about our safari. Our guide Simon was very knowledgeable and funny. We managed to see all the big 5. As for the camps all are wonderful especially in Masai Mara. Will definitely use their services again.

Best vacation ever!
My husband and I have just returned from a 15 day/14 night private safari tour in Kenya and Tanzania, which also included beach time on Zanzibar. Everything about this vacation was perfect, from beginning to end. We could not have been more pleased. Geophrey did an absolutely wonderful job of booking the safari for us. He was quick to respond to my emails, answered every question (I had many), and was very thorough with the many details of the trip. Geophrey met us upon our arrival in Nairobi and was there at each of our flights to greet us and/or see us off. Geophrey and/or our tour guides walked us through the process of customs and immigration at border crossings. When we found out that we were over our limit for the small plane that would take us to Zanzibar, we repacked our suitcases to comply with the weight limits and Geophrey was so very kind to take all the extra baggage and store it with him, while we spent 3 days on Zanzibar. Our tour guides, George, Joseph and James, were all excellent. Their ability to spot animals was outstanding! We saw all of the big 5 and so much more - literally thousands of animals! The guides were always patient and accommodating whenever we asked to stop and take many, many pictures. They went out of their way to get the jeep in just the right spot for photos. All 3 of the guides were very knowledgeable regarding the life-style and culture of the various animals and they shared their knowledge with us, which made viewing the animals so much more interesting. The knowledge of life-style and culture extended to the native people and locals, as well. It was fascinating to learn about these wonderful, warm, welcoming people. We are in awe of how much we learned from our 3 guides in our short time together! We stayed in a variety of lodges, from luxury to "glamping" tents to basic tent camps. All exceeded out expectations! Food, accommodations and service were amazing everywhere we stayed. My husband and I have traveled all around the world - and THIS trip has gone down as our best trip ever! I can not recommend Kenan Travel and Tours enough! Thank you, Geophrey, George, Joseph and James for making our trip to Kenya and Tanzania wonderful!

Everything went exceptionally smoothly and was professionally handled. Geoffrey was a great contact!
We had a great experience with Kenan Travel & Tours. Our group (four of us total) decided to book a 4-day safari fairly last minute (less than a month before we were set to arrive). Despite the short notice, we ended up with a fabulous trip. Shortly after submitting an information request, we received a response from Geoffrey, who was able to modify the usual 3-day itinerary to allow us extra time in the Conservancy that our schedule would allow. Communication was always very straightforward and clear. We received an itinerary that was detailed and helpful, and our air travel and accommodations went very smoothly. Absolutely no complaints--would highly recommend, and if we ever come back to Kenya for another trip I intend to use them again. Would also recommend in particular staying in the Naboisho Conservancy: much more private and relaxing than the national park; very eventful game drives (without crowds); and great service!

definitely exceeding my expectations,
I took Kenan travel because of their good rating 5/5 pretty much everywhere and I was not disappointed at all. Thank you to Jane who was kind and helpful with us with these many many communications prior to our African safari. Our 12 day tour went very well with our guides , Moses in Kenya and Joseph in Tanzania , None of our question were left unanswered . We saw everything , from Lion , Leopard , Rhino , Elephant , Buffalo , Wildebeest river crossing , Hot water bucket shower and all the funny stuff on Safari. Masai Mara & Serengeti are truly a paradise for wildlife . Everything was great , I would recomended Kenan Travel for a safari anytime , I already did to some of my friends planning a safari. Thanks again to Jane,Moses & Joseph .
superb service
We did a Rwanda and Uganda private safari. Jane was prompt in her responses and she gives an answer and explanation to whatever questions that we may have. Price is a lot cheaper than hat you would have from the big tour companies. Itinerary was customizable and flexible. Moses the driver/guide was knowledgeable and attentive to out needs. Would definitely recommend!
