Unforgettable safari experience
5/5

My husband and I just concluded an 8-day safari tour in Kenya and were super lucky to have connected with Africa Flash McTours to help plan our trip. Knowing little about the country, we found Flash Mc via random google searches and it worked out great! We had an incredible time.

From the initial inquiry, Peter was extremely responsive, normally replying within a few hours. With prompt and helpful insight, he designed a custom and private itinerary for us based on our budget, accommodation preferences and travel schedule. He provided suggestions when necessary and was also able to fluidly change our itinerary as we fine-tuned our choices.

Once in Kenya, we received airport pickup and drop-off which granted us hassle-free service all the way to/from the parks and reserves. Our driver/guide Simon immediately welcomed us and throughout the trip helped give us the best experience. Simon’s expert knowledge on the vast reserve landscape, wildlife and Kenya in general enabled us to enjoy the ideal safari adventure. He was very friendly, really helpful and always on our time. With the excellent scheduling, we visited Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara on our trip and felt like we had plenty of time to enjoy each destination. Regarding the animals, we saw everything!

Flash Mc definitely deserves recognition for their top-tier service, swift responses and customer-friendly approach. We’d recommend them for anyone planning a trip to Kenya and will certainly refer all our family and friends. To Peter, Simon, and the entire team, Asante!

A great experience for teh family
5/5

My wife and I are veterans of quite a few safaris across Africa but this time brought our children with us on a tour of Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. The service was always clear and helpful. Our guide, Edward, was incredibly friendly, had a wide-ranging knowledge of the many animals/birds we saw and was always very responsive to our wishes and needs. We started in the Masai Mara and were lucky enough to catch the Wilderbeest migration, an awesome sight. Edwards tracked down a full range of animals including, of course, lions and cheetah. He then took us across country to Lake Nakuru, patiently helping us find a charger for our camera in a local town (which was much harder than finding the big cats!). Finding that there were more flamingoes in a neighbouring lake, he took us there too – and found an expert guide with encyclopedic knowledge of the birds and their habitat. Finally, we moved on to Amboseli in the foothills of Kilimanjaro. My personal favourite sight of the entire trip was seeing the animals leave the swamp at the end of the day to move to drier lands – it was a spectalar combination of elephants, giraffe, zebras, wilderbeest and a host of other creatures all travelling together. Our children couldn’t have loved it any more and we will have many memories to share forever. I’d recommend anyone booking with McFlash to ask for Edward as his guidance made the whole trip particularly special.

An amazing experience from start to finish.
5/5

We are a family group of 5 adults and this was our first time in an African country or on safari - we had an amazing time!
I thoroughly recommend Africa flash mctours. From the start Peter was always prompt and thorough when replying to emails and through communication with him we negotiated the itinerary to involve a 7 day Masai-Mara,lake Nakuru, lake naivasha, amboseli Safari, with an additional 2 days at the end in Amboseli. Peter was always helpful in arranging things to suit our needs.
All the parks were so different and fantastic in their own way. Anthony, our driver, was brilliant. He was very friendly, always cheerful and really looked after us. We saw so many animals and birds (unfortunately not a leopard) it’s hard to pick out favourites. But perhaps for me the huge numbers of wildebeest on the Masai plains and the amboseli elephants stand out.
All the accommodation was great and all catered for the two vegetarians in our party.
The bike ride and gorge walk in Hell’s Gate and the boat ride to Crescent island (where you can walk amongst the animals with a guide) were also a lovely change from being in the van.
The only downside is that the trip involved a lot of long journeys in the vehicle on some very poor roads. However, it was worth it for us for all the experiences we have had.
Thanks to Peter and Anthony for making this such an incredible trip of a lifetime!

Breathtaking. Incredible. Will Book Again!
5/5

This was my first time on safari and it was absolutely incredible. There is nothing like it! What made my experience top-notch was our driver, Edward. His eyesight was incredible and I often felt like he would spot things that very few drivers would spot. In the short couple of days, we saw over 60 African animals (I counted), including rare animals like the leopard. On that note, Edward kept his eyes on the road as well and I felt safe the entire time. The hatchback roof was often up, allowing us to stand and marvel at the sights in front and around us.

If given the option, it is worth booking accommodations inside the park; doing so will cut out 1-2 hours of driving into the park per day and the scenes at said accommodations are out of this world.

This will not be my last safari, and I will be booking with Africa Flash McTours again!

4 DAYS 3 NIGHTS MASAI MARA PRIVATE SAFARI
5/5

We booked a 4 day’s private safari in Kenya with Africa Flash McTours and we couldn’t have chosen a better partner. From the beginning, they were always extremely available and ready to adapt the program to our requests. We wanted to stay at a specific camping in Masai Mara where there was initially no availability and Peter was tireless trying to get us to book our three nights at this camping. Thank you, Peter, for all the dedication and kindness from the beginning

Great customer service
5/5

We booked 2-day Amboseli safari tour from Nairobi. The customer service during the arrangement of the tour was amazing. Their responses were always prompt and very kind.The arranged accommodation of Kibo safari was also very comfortable. Nice food, friendly staff, exciting Maasai dance and beautiful stars made the tour unforgettable one. Needless to say, we were totally satisfied with wild animals in Amboseli. Elephant, in particular, were so lovely. I strongly recommend Flash McTours and Amboseli.

5 days safari to Aberdare, Lake Naivasha and Masai Mara
5/5

We are traveling as a family of 4 and had the best 5 days safari with our great driver and guide Simon.
We experienced three different types of nature on our trip - spanning from a forest with lots of elephants and buffalos right outside the lodge over to a lake with rhinos where we could walk around on Cresent island among giraffes and Zebras with a local ranger to finally reaching Masai Mara with several game drives.
We saw all of the big fives except for the rhino and Simon did a fantastic job taking us to see as many of the many different animals as possible. He went above and beyond to show us as much as possible and in general making sure we felt comfortable and had a good time.
We would like to highlight the Zebra Plains Mara camp as the most fantastic place to stay - right in the middle of the savanna with animals right outside the tent during the night but also great food and the best atmosphere - hosted by the most friendly and helpful staff.

All in all an amazing experience and we can highly recommend FlashMcTours and in particular Simon our driver.

7 days Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasah, Amboseli 5 star experience
5/5

Africa Flash Mc is very professional and provided an unforgettable trip for us 4. I have exchanged many emails with Peter before the deposit was paid and all his advice are proved to the point. We enjoyed excellent service during our trip. Our car was a land cruiser and it was in very new condition.The guide is Edward, who is experienced and patient. My mother wanted to take pictures of the sunrise and sunset, and he took us to the right place and arranged the time appropriately. He also arranged our meals and rest well on the long way. Edward cleaned the car every day and make sure we have enough water. In the masai mara we found 4 of the African big five, but unfortunately we didn't see leopard.We have a wonderful memory and we are really grateful to Peter and Edward. I strongly recommend this company to everyone who wants to go a safari. By the way, I think their logo is quite cool. They have logos on the receipt, the mineral water labels and even on car cushions.
