Arun is amazing, knows the parks inside out and felt like a part of our family!
Arun was more than we could’ve imagined for our guide, he became part of our family holiday. He has abundant experience and you can tell from the minute we set foot in the safari parks. He got us up close to the big 5 and let us spend time without feeling rush where it was possible.
Since the start, Sandra was really responsive and accommodating to our budgets and time frames, including to a place which they don’t necessarily normally go to. Any issues we had along the way, Sandra and Arun were quick to sort out and make us comfortable.
Now that we have finished and departed Arun we feel like we are missing a member of our family!

Amazing, very 10/10 organised, experienced and professional.
I would like to say a huge thank you to Arun, our wonderful tour guide. We genuinely couldn’t have asked for anything more from him.
From the moment he picked us up until the day he dropped us off at our final destination, Arun went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience. When we had issues with our accommodation in Kericho, he was incredibly patient and helpful, going out of his way to help us find somewhere comfortable to stay. Throughout our road trips, he kept us company, entertained and well informed, making even the long journeys enjoyable.
Our Maasai Mara safari was absolutely top class. Arun’s experience and knowledge of the area were incredible, and he clearly knew the Mara inside out. I loved how he was always alert and ready to make his way to wherever the action was happening, ensuring we had the best possible opportunity to see everything up close.
We were lucky enough to witness some truly unforgettable moments, including lionesses feasting on a wildebeest and a leopard carrying her cub. These are memories we will treasure forever, and Arun played a huge part in making them possible.
What really stood out about Arun was that, despite being extremely professional and knowledgeable, he was also personable, friendly, patient and genuinely caring. By the end of our trip, he had become more than just our guide — he felt like part of our family. We honestly didn’t want our Kenya journey to end, partly because we had to say goodbye to him!
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Sandra for coordinating our trip. She was extremely helpful, quick to respond and very patient with all our questions and queries. She made the planning process so much easier and was always there when we needed her.
So, a huge thank you to both Arun and Sandra for making our Kenya trip such a memorable and special experience. It is a trip we will never forget.
We will definitely be back and will absolutely use your services again. In the meantime, we will be recommending you to our friends and family back home in the UK.
Thank you both for everything, and take care! ❤️

Arun is the best tour guide EVER. 10/10
Arun delivered us the best Safari trip ever, knowing all the best spots in Masai Mara. We saw the Big 5 plus so many extraordinary moments that not many get to see. We feel so lucky to have had Arun taking us around and he’s made it an unforgettable trip for us. He made us feel safe, catered to all of our needs, and he was great fun with the best energy. We miss him already. Thank you so much Arun from your twin Aarani. Hakuna Matata, as he always said.

Arun has tremendous experience as a tour guide and he deserves all accolades he receives
We met Arun at Nairobi where he collected us on our safari holiday. Our first destination was Nakuru national park. On that journey we had a lengthy conversations with him and we all warmed up to his personality and his character. When we reached Nakuru national park park, we got to see his immense knowledge and experience that he has. He took us around the park without any map systems and he got us to places touch of distance of rare animals including rhinos and lions.
Our next trip to was to Kericho which was a pilgrimage for me as I was born in kericho and I was returning after 52 years. We had some issues with Kericho accommodation but with his professionalism and experience he got us a resolution. At this point Arun became part of our family and it was a pleasure to share my hometown experience with him.
In Massai Mara his immense knowledge and experience came to fruition. He always seem to be on the right place in the right time to allow us to experience the beauty of Massai Mara. We saw lions of two feet of the vehicle and he got us in the position to see black Rhino. We witnessed a pride of lions feasting on wilder-beast. And the most magical moment of seeing a leopard carrying a pup and ending up two foot of our vehicle.
Overall we couldn’t have asked for better guide for once in a lifetime trip. Thank you Arun.
