Reviews
Trip of a lifetime thanks to Baboon budget safaris
We had an amazing trip to Kenya with the highlight being the 6 day safari masai mara/nakuru/amboselli
Highly recommended.
We saw absolutely all the animals!!
Dennis was very good and communicating details, and always answering questions.
Our driver Zack was unbelievable and gave us very good service

Great price, friendly people, awesome animals
Dennis was great help beforehand and was quick to answer all my questions. The accomodations are basic, but clean. The food is decent, but I would recommend bringing snacks in case you get hungry during the day or do not like an option one night. Most importantly, however, the animals are SO great. The drivers know where to go and get you so close. Overall, I had a great trip and would recommend Baboon Budget Safari to anyone! I traveled alone and felt safe and comfortable the entire time.

Good price quality relation
We really enjoyed our safaris in Kenya,
Dennis was super helpful specially prior to our arrival, organizing everything.
We did Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli, to be fair honest, for me, 6 days of safari was too much, if it would be now I would have skipped one of the parks and visited the sea coast! But that has to do with my personal will.
Overall everything was great! We totally recommend!

Good value for the money
My tour was 6 days Massai Mara-Nakura-Amboseli.
Communication by email before the trip was prompt and reliable with Dennis. All arrangements and promises fulfilled. Reliable and easy going. Good vans, good camp accomodations, good hotel, good food.
I was 4 days (MM&Nakura) with Robinson and 2 days (Amboseli) with Stanley. Both were safe drivers, knowledgeable, experienced guides and caretakers. Both took care in a reliable manner to make my onward connections work. I would recommend both for other tours. Stanley with our small group at this trip leg (3 guests) was especially gentle and friendly.
Definetely I would book again with Bamboon
P.S.: If you go for a optional boat tour on lake Naivasha insist on a boat from the public beach 100 KSH/person instead of 3,000 KSH/person at the safari-tour-compound next (but you cannot walk over directly, because of little lagoon between)

Safari kenya / tanzania
We just came back from a 9 days safari in kenya and tanzania. And everything was perfect, from the guide to the accomodation, from the food to the transportation. And the price was a very good deal compare to the people we met during this trip.

Excellent experiences in Kenya and Tanzania
Everything went smoothly since our arrival. They received us at the airport and drove us to hotel on the first night. The next day we met Dennis, who explain us every single part of our contracted program, so no doubts appeared. After that we started our trip and at this moment we knew Ambrose: the pearl in the ocean! Magnificent road trip and great Safaris, in which Ambrose ran through the savannah to find and show us all the Big 5, and explained us everything we asked (he also was studying birds, so he could explain more). Brilliant guide/driver, well worthy hiring (even though he only makes Kenya trips)
We do recommend these people, as our experience has been absolutely amazing.

this company has reasonable price & good guide
I chose this company because of my friend.
She used this company and she was satisfied 100%! And so I am!
I already had Serengeti safari so I had low expectation but wowww.. I was wrong!
First of all, the guide was really funny and full experienced man that he drove really fast but safely ;-)
We didnt miss one little thing compare to other tour teams.
We were really lucky that we saw Big 4.5 (It was really hard to see hippos. We saw it but honestly it was pretty far away that I can tell I saw Big 4.5 but actually, other companies had same situation!)
Food and tent were also very good.
The place we stayed was pretty close to the park so we didnt waste of our time on the road to the park.
The local people around the tents, they would guide you for free.
We give them some money but it was nice to see them not to ask / force any money guide around their place.
Anyways. my 2 nights 3 days were really enjoyable.
The safari tour fee is really reasonable that I compared to many other companies but here was the best.
If you are not looking for a luxurious safari, I think Baboon budget is all good!
Trust me and contact Dennis!

Fantastic, well organised safari
We booked a 3 night safari with Dennis in the Maasai Mara at the end of the August. It was the most incredible trip. It was so well organised - Dennis was always very helpful and easy to get hold of. He organised our accommodation at Mara Sarova Lodge and all flights and transfers were booked for us. It was a very smooth process. We had the best guide/driver who was lovely, kind and very knowledgeable and knew where to find all the animals - ask for Samson - he is a legend! Although we just missed the migration, we saw all of the big 5 including two rhinos and leopards - so it's definitely a great time to go. I'd definitely recommend booking with Dennis, it was a fantastic trip - I can't wait to go back!

Wonderful scenic trip
We found this tour company online and initially spoke to Dennis. He was very helpful and efficient in getting the tour set-up and we were soon on our way to the Mara. Our driver was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and skillful, he took us to the best parts of the park and we got to see the animals up-close and enjoyed the looking out into the landscape. Thank you for a great trip!
