Excellent, reliable, professional Safari company.
5/5

We have had many trips with KETS, never any problems. As usual our safari was tailor made with equal input from us and Paul the boss.
Duncan was again our guide, brilliant as always, superman eyes and encyclopaedian mind.
Highly recommended.

Elephant Babies!
5/5

We booked a 7-day safari with Kenya Expresso Tour (KETS). The owner, Paul Mwendwa,
responds quickly to inquiries. This was my fifth safari with KETS, so I know what to expect: a competitive quote, excellent service, integrity, a reliable vehicle, and a world-class experience that is both unforgettable and safe.

We are patrons of the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, so this safari was customized to allow us to spend time with out foster elephant babies at both Ithumba and the Voi Stockade, as well as the Nairobi Nursery. Paul was also our driver, and was always punctual with our visitation schedule at the orphanages.

Ithumba must be the only place on earth where one can view wild elephants in large numbers as they mingle with the orphans... an extraordinary experience.

We enjoyed several game drives in Tsavo East National Park. Paul has a good eye and strong instinct when it comes to viewing wildlife.

Regarding the exit covid test requirement, Paul made it easy: he took us to West Nairobi hospital that emailed results in 4-hours.

For anyone planning a Kenya / Tanzania safari, KETS should be your first contact.

5/5

This is a great company. We are regulars now and can't recommend highly enough. Great lodges, opportunities to see wildlife and fabulous drivers/ tour guides. If you are going to Tanzania, ask for Saba to be your driver. He is great!

Amazing experience with a knowledgable guide.
5/5

I booked the tour all via email. Communication was great and the deposit was simple to pay via BACs. The Safari more than lived up to expectations. We were picked up from our hotel in Nairobi and the driver was happy to stop on route as when requested.
The lodge we stayed in was beautiful and the tour itself was breathtaking. We saw 4 of the big 5 in the 3 days we were there. Our guide was very knowledgable and did his best to ensure we had a memorable time.
Definately recommend. 10 out of 10!

Wonderful safari holidays: a tailormade itinerary showing us the diversity of NP in Kenya
5/5

We asked KET-safaris to arrange a private 11days safari and they did a very good job. We visited 7 NP, each with its own specific elements in scenery, fauna and flora. we spent quite some time on the road, but Joseph, our driver/guide was very responsible and carefull. In the NP's, he showed us his experencience by leading us to the big 5, amongst many others, giving us the opportunity to take some wonderful pictures.
The lodges and camps, where we stayed were a least good (on very scenic locations), some of them excellent (nice rooms/tents, excellent food) and all this for a good price/quality.
We even were lucky to see the Big Migration, which started early this year, giving us already a "preview" of the spectacle which was coming and due to the low-season in the parks and lodges it was still very quiet .
all this made our holiday to a wonderful experience

a journey beyond expectation
5/5

1, The communication before departure is smooth, professional and fast. This is an important reason why I chose KETS from several travel agencies in the early days.
2, The driver and the travel agency staff picked up the plane at the airport gate and everything went smoothly.
3, The hotel is very satisfied. Most of them are the best hotels in the area. The driver also communicated with the front desk and gave us the best room.
4, The driver (Joseph, if I remember correctly) worked hard to help us find the animals. We saw the lion for three days. All Big Five have been found.
5, The driver did his best to meet our requirements and he did not ask us anything. The driver arranged everything and we concentrated on enjoying the journey. We are happy to give tips to him every day.
6, The off-road vehicle is very good. Very convenient to see animals.
7, The price is very good. This price is much cheaper than the Chinese travel agencies.
8, We have a journey of memories that exceeds expectations. KETS is the right choice. You will never regret it.

Unforgettable experience
5/5

I booked on Kenya Expresso Tours a three days trip to Massai Mara National Park. Both the experience itself and the organization provided by this company were excellent. The trip took place by the end of April which, although is usually a rainy period, has as an advantage that the park is not so crowded as in other periods of the year. The process to plan the trip was quite straightforward thanks to the expertise of Paul, tour consultant, that arranged a personalized itinerary at a very competitive price. I really appreciated that, to prevent the possibility to find out problems with mud on land roads, Paul upgraded the vehicle originally booked to another one of superior performance with no extra cost. The assigned guide, Joseph, is a nice person, with long-lasted experience in this task. He knows every corners of the park, what gave me the opportunity to have a comprehensive view of its wild life. Furthermore, he was very friendly at all times and truly committed to make as pleasant as possible the trip.
