Amazing experience and great introduction to Kenya
From the beginning it was really easy to communicate with the tour operator. We contacted him on what’s app and he always replied quickly. He accommodated changes to the standard itinerary.
On the first morning, our driver Davy collected us. He was fantastic! Always cheerful and helpful with even the smallest tasks. Davy always went above and beyond to give us an authentic Kenyan experience. We were two girls travelling alone and we always felt so safe and secure with him. We are so grateful for everything.
For the safari, we chose to visit naivasha, Nakuru and massi Mara where we saw all of the big 5. The accommodation was really comfortable despite it being the budget option and the staff in hotels were super friendly. We will be back and hope our guide Davy will be free to take us again!

Unforgettable experience
Our experience with Mwema was absolutely incredible. For five unforgettable days, Paul was our guide, not only leading us to witness the amazing wildlife but also providing insightful information about each animal we encountered. Throughout our stay at different hotels, Paul was always present—offering guidance, introducing us to various activities, and helping us explore the surroundings. He struck the perfect balance between supporting us but also giving us lots of freedom to discover and explore things on our own. Without a doubt, we’d rate the experience 5/5 and can’t wait to do it again!
An amazing safari experience!
We had an unforgettable two days safari organized by Simon.Simon’s organization and attention to detail made everything run smoothly. Our guide Richard is also such a knowledgeable and passionate guide. His insights and enthusiasm made every moment of the safari special, and we felt completely taken care of throughout the journey.
You both played a huge part in making this trip unforgettable, and I’m truly grateful for the experience!

Fast and reliable
The private safari trip we took was a good value for money. The tour operators were always fast to reply and our driver was flexible enough to accommodate to the needs of our 3y-old son. I would have liked more factual, tour guide type of information from the driver's side, but he was friendly and reliable nonetheless.

SPECTACULAR SAFARI – THANK YOU SIMON!
For planning, Simon quickly answered questions covering Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, including in-depth answers on wildlife parks, activities, accommodations and transportation. From the minute we entered our first park, Amboseli, it was clear that our guide Richard, knew every road, and where to find game. Very quickly we were in the thicket of more than 100 elephants, with scores of birds flying around, more than I’ve every seen in any wildlife documentary. We watched as the elephant herd crossed the road right in front of us. We stayed at Nyati Safari Camp, were greeted with fresh fruit juice, had satisfying meals, and enjoyed large en-suite tents with locking doors and a view of Kilimanjaro. After two days, we went to Lake Nakuru and found rare and reclusive Black Rhinos exactly where Richard predicted. We had seven sighting of them! The next morning, we went in search of White Rhinos, and we were not disappointed, with several sightings including a pair just off the road – 10 feet away from us. Next, we were off to find cats at Masai Mara. We had so many sightings of Lions and Cheetahs I can’t remember them all. Talk about close encounters, at our last game drive, we had 5 male lions using our jeep for cover to trap a Cape Buffalo. We stayed at Crocodile Camp bordering Masai Mara, right next to Talek Gate, with crocodiles and hippos wandering the river below our zippered in-suite tents. There’s an air of faded glory at this camp (the tents are worn, and our sink spigot wasn’t working, but was fixed the next day). However, the Masai staff were wonderfully friendly, with a superb cook, and an outstanding location. We saw gazelles, giraffes, topi, hyneas, impalas, bush bucks, baboons, monkeys, warthogs, mongoose, jackals and other wildlife. There was no need for a tracker, Richard’s keen eyes could pick out a cheetah we couldn’t spot with binoculars. Richard knows the park roads like the back of his hand and was a master of positioning his Land Rover for perfect wildlife viewing. Thank you Simon and Richard for an amazing safari!
