Great Value!! Great Experience!
5/5

My wife and I spent the last 15 months travelling the planet and we were fortunate enough to spend some of that time in Kenya. One of our big ticket items was to experience a Safari in the Maasai Mara. After a few days of research... we were lucky to come across Kenya Budget Safaris. The main factor of us choosing them was first the price... the quote we received was better than any other place we checked. Then the quick and detailed responses we received from Esther gave us reassurance that we were dealing with a legit and professional company.

The safari itself was something we will never forget. The camp we stayed at for the first two nights was great. Basic tent with a bed inside it really gives you the feel that you're out on safari. The food they served was really good. But obviously the best part is being out in the park. We were paired with the best guide who really knew the area... Papa Kilo... he had been driving for close to 20 years. Very knowledgeable. Any question we asked he had the answer.

Anyways stop looking around. If you're looking for a Budget Safari.. this is the one. If you want some pics visit our facebook page... Grounded Wanderlust.. for proof of the amazing experience we had.

Lifetime Experience! Great Value! 100% Recommendable
5/5

We had a great experience with Kenya Budget Safaris!! and we would recommend them a million times!
After some research and looking for affordable Safari companies (which is not so easy) we were so lucky to come across Kenya Budget Safaris.
They are very fair priced especially for people with a lower budget like us, the quote we received was the lowest especially as we did the 8 day tour (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru & Amboseli) and any other company was totally unaffordable for us.

Esther was very kind and attentive, and super responsive to all our questions and emails we were even able to change the safari dates almost last minute as our plans changed unexpectadly.

During the Safari our driver Patrick was great and very knowledgable, we saw every single animal we expected and more and thanks to the 8 day tour in different parks we saw many different sceneries. Masai Mara was great for all the wildlife, Lake Nakuru for the Rhinos and Amboseli for the great mount Kilimanjaro backgrounds!!
The accomodation and food was great for the price! I wouldn't trade any of the experience and if we ever come back to that part of the world again we would repeat with them for sure!

A Once in a lifetime experience that everyone should do, and with Kenya Budget Safaris it is accesible for everyone!

Affordable, organized and ALL the animals we hoped to see!
5/5

Kenya Budget Safaris provided a wide range of safari options at very reasonable rates. Our contact with KBS was a delightful woman named Esther, and her immediate kind responses to our numerous questions made us realize that we were in good hands for this big adventure. My husband and I were able to make changes to our departure date without a problem. Esther helped us find reasonable Nairobi accomodations and arranged transportation before & after our safari. She went above & beyond by securing SGR train tickets for us, and helping out with some hotel payment issues. We cannot say enough about how smoothly our safari experience ran due to Esther's expert guidance.
The safari accomodations & ample food were more than adequate. The game drives were the thrill of a lifetime. We saw the Big 5 in the wild....and so much more. All the parks we toured were fabulous, but our handsdown favourite was Maasai Mara. We also really enjoyed the optional Maasai Mara Village visit, and the Hell's Gate Gorge hike.
Be aware that the multiday safari groups are fluid....there may be some changing of your safari companions depending on length of each person's tour. This resulted in some time needed to meet up and collect or drop off participants. There was a fair amount of driving involved in getting to these meetings and the various parks. However, it did allow us to meet many interesting people and we did enjoy the experience. We would highly recommend Kenya Budget Safari!

Esther was really nice and helpful. We saw lots of animals, the accommodation was really ok for this price, and the vegetarian food was amazing. Our guide, Maxwell, was really nice as well. I recommend it 100% !
