Absolute wonderful trip and Jackson is a fantastic guide - can't wait to come to back to Kenya again
5/5

This was our second trip to Kenya with Jackson being our guide. From the planning of the trip, the pick-up at the airport, the accommodation and the service, everything went perfect. We especially enjoyed our time in Samburu. As Jackson has excellent eyes we were most of the time the first car spotting the predators and it resulted in great photographs. On our next trip to Kenya we will definitely book again with adventuretravel Kenya.

This is what you need when in Kenya!!!
5/5

Well, well, well...
First question when we decided to go somewhere else in 2018 was "is Kenya good enough for our travel plans".
We've been to over 100 countries world-wide, incl. some absolutely distant and exotic, like Brunei, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji, Mauritius, Sri Lanka, Alaska, Tasmania, Panama, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Margarita island, Jamaica, Curacao, Iceland, etc., etc., etc.
Until August 2018 Africa was a bit away of our travel targets and we've been only in South Africa, Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco...
Therefore, to select Kenya as our last destination was necessary to obtain some info in advance from our dear friends H.E. The Ambassador of Israel to Kenya Mr. Noah Gal-Gendler, as well as H.E. The Honorary Consul of Kenya to Bulgaria Mr. Ivailo Dermendjiev.
Our contact persons to organize the trip to and inside Kenya were Ms. Ronit from Ollami Israel and Mr. Jackson from Kenya Adventure Travel.
After they gave us all available details we confirmed two trips: the first one to Masai Mara and the second one to Lake Victoria.
Our drivers/guides were John (Masai Mara) and Daniel (Kisumu, Lake Victoria).
Before everything else, I'd like to express our warmest thanks and high appreciation to the job they both did for us.
Masai Mara and Lake Victoria are the two locations in Kenya which we strongly recommend to any adventurers.
But if they wish to have a full satisfaction, they MUST find John and Daniel with the help of Jackson.
John and Daniel were not only guides and drivers, they were loaded with complete information about the places we visit, animals and fish we see, and Kenya as a whole, incl. geography, economy and political situation.
One fact, very demonstrative for their involvement in the trips: on the way back from Masai Mara to Nairobi, a road accident occurred - the front right tire was ruptured on a stone. John did his best to continue with a spare one, but obviously the problem came out to be more serious, and we stopped in the middle of nowhere...
However, John immediately arranged another car and then, in Nairobi, a third one to take us back to our location. This was a very good example of excellent job and we give all our compliments to John for everything he did during the three days of Masai Mara tour.
Daniel, on his side, was also the best tour guide in Kisumu and Lake Victoria boat ride. Out of the regular programme he added a visit to the Equator line, which we simply did not know and thank to him, we saw this geography phenomenon.
In summary - our Kenya excursions were more than we expected, emotional, interesting, fruitful and non-forgettable, but this was a result of the efforts of all, Ronit, Jackson, John, Daniel, as well as our hosts in the Israeli Residence in Nairobi (H.E. Noah and his wife Liron - great friends, great persons!!!), and the Sovereign hotel in Kisumu.
Warm greetings and cordial thanks:
Prof.Dr. Krassimir Metodiev, Honorary Consul of Israel to Bulgaria,
Dr. Paula Lazarova-Metodieva, wife,

Highly experienced, professional, friendly with options for all budgets!
5/5

My husband and I went for 7 days in low season (May 2022) to miss the crowds which was a delight. (Unfortunately we also missed the migration but we saw plenty!) The Adventure Travel Kenya safari crew were very experienced and professional.

We covered Amboseli, Hells gate, Lake Naivasha (the boat safari is a must - as the guide to throw up some fish to lure the fish eagles closeby for amazing photographs and try stay at / have a beer at Fishermans Camp on the waterside), Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara.

They gave us an unforgettable trip and such happy memories of Kenya with it’s breathtaking scenery and friendly people!

The food was always good, decent variety and tasty and the drive/guide Bonface from Indepejourneys was the best ever. Unlimited energy to keep us going and he was able to answer all our questions and knew all the best places to go. He has an eagle eye for spotting game and knew the parks well enough to get us to the action ahead of any other vehicle.

We were well catered for even when we wanted to adapt the plan slightly to include a tea plantation and go fabric shopping at good local prices. Make sure you book tea / coffee plantation tours in advance.

The vehicle was comfortable and reliable and we had an excellent view out the top. It was cleaned regularly inside and out throughout the trip to keep the dust under control.

Can't recommend this crew highly enough!

Amazing trip!
5/5

My trip was absolutely amazing !!!
I volunteered in Kenya for 6 weeks and the dream was for me to experience a safari trip. I was alone and didn't really know how to arrange it. I wrote to various companies through safaribookings.com, and ended up talking to Jackson from adventuretravel.com.
Jackson was incredibly nice and helped me arrange a safari tour for my budget. I got a driver named Joseph Maina, who I drove with for the next 6 days. As a guide on safaris, they want to do the best they can to get the most out of the safari. Joseph did what he could to make the most of it.
I was lucky enough to be allowed to see a lot of animals up close, and almost everyone from the big five.

The hotels I stayed in were absolutely fantastic. My accommodation was the middel, so not budget or luxury, but in between. And it was absolutely perfect. I would say that the soap lodges I stayed at felt like luxury. Very nice!

All in all, I had the best trip, and look forward to the next time I leave.

Trusted Firm
5/5

Getting a trusted tour firm is not easy. My group really appreciate your warm and memorable safaris with your firm. We enjoyed every bit of the tour and will always automatically use you whenever we come to Africa. The vehicle was in good condition and food were African dishes as promised. We will miss nyamachoma and we can't wait to come back. Thanks Adventure Travel Kenya

We booked budget safari on our Kenyan visit in January, but the tents in our opinion were very nice and warm for the night. Adventure Travel were fast at answering emails , John was our guide. He went out of his way during game drives in Masai Mara to have us enjoy the day and made tour great! We were a group of 9 and got picked up on time. We are proud of the whole team
