My total experiece with KET beginning in November, 2012 and ending in Sept., 2013 was exceptional.
5/5

Our safari planning with KET began on November 12, 2012 and this was for a September 2013 trip. Dealing with Paul Mwendwa for nearly a year of pre safari planning was very enjoyable and also very easy. Paul was always quick to respond to all my endless questions, offering alternatives in dates, safari camps, etc. At the end of our safari, Paul was kind enough to meet us at his office as our driver/guide, George was taking us to the airport in Nairobi. All the planning paid dividends as the entire trip went seamlessly with no problems. My wife and I had a safari van to ourselves which made photographing the animals extremely easy and rewarding. I can't say enough about George who went out of his way to make sure we saw every possible animal. We stayed three nights at the Mara Sarova Tented Camp in the Maasai Mara, One night at the Sarova Lion Hill Lodge in Lake Nakuru and two nights at the Ol Tukai Lodge in Amboseli. All accommodations and meals were excellent. Back to George.............our adventure started right away as George picked us up at the airport in Nairobi without a hitch. George then proceeded to get stopped by a lady police officer for God knows what reason. As George continued to rant that Lady cops are the worst and just terrrrrible as my wife and I continued to laugh and laugh. George was also kind enough to make a stop in a little town for me, search for a market so I could buy some beans to fill my camera support to rest my lens on and keep the camera steady. I simply cannot say enough about Paul and George. They made our once in a lifetime experience a true joy. George and Paul were reflective of all the Kenyan people we came in contact with - kind, considerate and full of joy.

thank you for all Paul
5/5

Hi,

We finished 2 safari with KET in January and August 2013 for 1 week for each. Paul and his staff perfect, kind, clever. Also lodges of KET in Masaii Mara, Amboseli, Naivasha and Nakuru are wonderful.
We saw big 5 in each Safari because of effort of his staff. You can trust Paul always.
Safari is easy with KET; trust me.... :)

Incredible holiday that delivered all we hoped
5/5

We spent a week by the sea at Mombassa, then KET collected us and delivered a superb 7 day adventure that the three of us will always remember. Nicky our driver was brilliant, helpful, always flexible and a great spotter too. We saw everything we wanted (from leopard by the van, to stamping secretary birds and mating lions!). He handled tricky situations with ease - when we were charged by a rhino, for example! Brilliant stuff. Highly recommended. And if we do it again, we'll go with KET.

Fantastic Experience ..Thanks to KET
5/5

I just came back from a 4 days 3 nights safari trip to Kenya. The whole experience was amazing, Thanks to KET.

I knew about KET from trip advisor and dropped an email to Mr. Paul among other companies. He was the 1st to respond with all details. He was very responsive and helpful.

My friend and I, visited Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara including one of the Maasai villages . From day one, we were very impressed with everything, the nature and weather were fantastic., the trip organization was flawless , the hotels were stunning and service was impeccable.Everything was just PERFECT!

Our driver, Francis, was very polite, knowledgeable and friendly .Thanks to him, we saw the big five and lot of other animals. He taught us view Swahili words.. Nashukuru sana Francis 

Asante sana KET safari for an unforgettable vacation!

Great Experience
5/5

Dear Paul,

Nice to hear from you. Sorry to hear that some of your old reviews got lost. Our family came to Kenya in 2010 and used KET Safaris and had just a GREAT experience. We are from Arizona in the USA, there were 5 of us, we went to 3 areas, all were great. We liked the Masai Mara probably the best, but all were unique and different in there own way. We travel a lot, and normally like to stay at the nicer places. Paul and his group put us in just perfect accomodations, there drivers were just top notch. We were able to see the Big 5, which I understand is tough to do on your first safari. One of our best vacation trips ever, our family still talks about it. We have referred Paul and KET to many other people thinking of a safari, Highly recomend them, and I rarely ever write reviews or recomend many companies. They were just that good. Tell Duncan hello from us and that we think of him often.

Experience of a lifetime
5/5

I have had the most amazing five days. I saw all the animals, apart from the elusive leopard - but that just gives me motivation to return! I went on a balloon ride for the first time ever and it was wonderful. I saw a lion eating his dinner, a cheetah with five babies and lots of my favourite animals - giraffe & zebra. Of course I took hundreds & hundreds of photos.

Clide was the perfect guide. He was professional, experienced, thoughtful and extremely well known (& loved) by everyone at all three lodges/camps. He was undoubtedly the best choice for me, given I was travelling alone - he treated me like family. I will recommend your company, & Clide in particular, to all my friends.

Asante sana!

If You search for THE BEST - You are on the right place...
5/5

Kenya was my dream.
At the point of trip to that amazing country, search for perfect agent was needed. Paul was found and contacted. I think I never found someone so friendly, helpful, and just - there to answer on ANY question, and many any worry you have be gone.
As I had whole day in Nairobi before my Safari started, Paul took me to see Nairobi and explained to me most important things about the place. I truly enjoyed it!
Next day, early morning, Paul came with Dan just, our driver to be for next 5 days / 4 nights safari, just on time.
Everything after was amazing. Safari, service in camps where we stayed, people... Dan made sure we learn a lot about National parks we visited, about animals we saw, about tribes, and also to answer my curious questions about everything else in Kenya.
I will always be thankful for Paul and KET for making my trip to Kenya so memorable! And I am sure in one thing. Whenever I decide to go back, I will not need to search for new agent. I already have one :)
