Great experience.
The reservation was lined up smoothly. Everyone we interacted with was very friendly and accommodating. The game drives were also awesome! We didn't get to see the Big 5 but our tour guide tried really hard to make it happen so we really appreciated that. Would highly recommend!

AMAZING 10 Nights Private Luxury Safari: Nairobi, Borana, Masaai Mara and Mara North Conservancy.
10 Nights Private Luxury Safari: Nairobi, Borana, Masaai Mara and Mara North Conservancy.
This was my 2nd fully private luxury safari with Peter at Africa Flash McTours. Having done a Kenyan safari with this company in 2017, I was very happy to book with them again and I highly recommend them!!! *See full details below about our hospital fiasco!
I have done safaris in India, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia, Tanzania, South Africa and Kenya x2, and I have high standards. I have used multiple tour companies over the years, and this is the only one I would feel comfortable referring to my friends/ family. I 100% recommend Africa Flash McTours, and am already planning my third itinerary with them.
I work in luxury hotels, so I have rather high standards for my own travels. Peter was able to make recommendations that suited my standards for camps/lodges. But, I also know he is flexible to work within any budget to provide the ideal safari experience for anyone looking to go to Kenya.
SAFARI DETAILS:
Nairobi (2 nights) at Villa Rose Kempinski
Borana/ Lewa Conservancy (2) at Borana Lodge
Masai Mara National Reserve (2) Mara Ngenche within the reserve
Mara North Conservancy (3) Karen Blixen Camp within the Conservancy
Nairobi (1 nights) at Villa Rose Kempinski
We saw EVERY animal. I got SO MANY incredible photos. We had a private land cruiser and our own guide, Alex… as opposed to using the camps vehicles and guides.
SPECIFIC DETAILS:
My mother (68) and I (37) did a 10 day safari around Kenya in March 2018, booked through Peter at Africa Flash Mc Tours. I also did a 10 day luxury safari with them in July 2017 with a friend.
BUUUUUUUUUTTTTT… My mom got VERY sick on arrival in Nairobi with severe vertigo. We ended up in Aga Khan Hospital for cat scan/ MRI. She could not move/ eat for 4 days. This meant that we could not depart Nairobi for our first safari destination (Borana). Reservations had to be changed and flights between camps had to be cancelled/rescheduled. THANKFULLY, Peter was constantly in touch and helpful. And even more, Peter and his other guide Edward drove us to/ from hospitals and helped as much as they could. Some things could not be refunded (up to the camps) and we had to spend more money to extend at Kempinski. But Peter tried hard to help us save money and was able to avoid us having to pay for new airline tickets.
Awesome tour with Africa Flash McTours to Masai Mara
The tour was really well organised. The highlights were :
Great selection of accommodation.
Fully covered trip in terms of costs.
Driver (Edward) was very knowledgeable on the animals and their likely sighting sites and hides.
Safe driver and vehicle.
Punctual and neat service.

3 day trip to Amboseli
We found AFMcT to be very professional. Our trip was well organised and excellent value for money. We were collected from Wildebeest Lodge in Nairobi and our driver (John) was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Our children (11 & 9) loved Kibo Safari Lodge which has a excellent swimming pool and great food. The drive from Nairobi is circa 4 hours but is part of the experience! The safari tents are traditional but very atmospheric. My wife and I really liked the barwhich has a nice "vibe" in the evenings. I highly recommend AFMcT.

Everything went smoothly, our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, we saw all Big 5
can honestly say this tour exceeded my expectations in every way. The arrangements were handled brilliantly by Peter, who replied to emails very promptly and tailored the safari to suit us perfectly. We were picked up by our driver Edward and from that moment treated like royalty, we had the whole pop top truck to ourselves (2 adults and 2 children) and got to really feel at home there. I strongly recommend the Maasai run camp Oldarpoi as your base in the Maasai Mara. It's amazing. We also did the optional visit to the Maasai Village and learned so much about the local culture, and we went to the school with supplies (please if you go, they badly need English-text story books. text books etc. for the children). The safari itself was amazing, I didn't realise we'd be so close to the animals, and we saw all of the big 5! Some amazing moments including seeing lions and hyenas battling over a still (only just) alive warthog - amazing. We spent the last night/day at Lake Nakuru and completed the big 5 seeing rhino there. Fabulous. Very happy. The hotel there, Lake Nakuru Lodge is just beautiful. I already know I want to go back some time. Can I please just say how AMAZING Edward is. Such a genuine, lovely friendly guy with loads of knowledge about the wildlife. Thank you Edward.

He was knowledgeable, experienced, professional, and accommodating.
From the first contact to arrival back at our hotel, Flash McTours has been excellent. Ahead of the tour, all our questions were answered via email in a helpful, timely fashion. There were just two on this particular tour so we felt like we were on a private tour. The tour guide/driver was punctual, experienced, professional. We could not have asked for more from them. The lodge where we stayed and the meals served were amazing. We saw 1000's of animals and got incredible pictures with just our phones. The amount charged and the services provided were just as advertised and we feel we got more than our money's worth. We highly recommend Flash McTours.

Amazing Safari!
Peter was great in arranging everything and our guide, Alex, was amazing. He went above and beyond, continually trying to create just the right experience. He was great at spotting hard to see wildlife and getting us nice and close.

A fabulous safari with a great company
Peter was helpful and professional from booking to completion.
We had a wonderful safari with our guide Eddie who tirelessly looked after us all from the onset.
Wonderful people, wildlife, transport and accommodation in this beautiful country.
I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone looking for a good value but comprehensive safari.
