taylor made safari
Me and my friend asked Transtrek Safaris to organize taylor made safari for us from Diani Beach to Nairobi taking in 3 Safari parks on the way. It was very well organized, we stayed in lovely lodges and safari camps, our guide/driver was available to us 24/7 to take us on morning and evening game drives and even adding a visit to Masai village. Thank you for the amazing time! Highly recommended!

Fantastic safari trip and excursion
My girlfriend and I wanted to go on Safari and not be in a huge group following a set trail.
We spoke to Transtrek and they took us through lots of options - which meant we got the holiday we wanted.
They helped us organise a beach holiday for a week and when we had truly recovered from work we went on a hugely varied safari trip covering all the locations we had requested and a few suggested items which we are glad we did not miss. I have two tips for people going on Safari - buy a new camera and ring Transtrek for a chat

Memories Made for Life
Daniel put together an amazing Safari package. It was fantastic and well coordinated trip with very personalized service. We felt very comfortable with our tour guides, Peter and John. Prior to our trip, we exchanged 30+ emails and phone calls in an attempt to craft the perfect holiday. Daniel was very accommodating in making changes and making recommendations to make our trip rememberable. Overall the safari was an incredible experience that gave us the effect of connecting us with nature in a way hard to explain to anyone who has never been on a safari. Thank you Daniel, Chiku and the rest of the crew for helping us fill out our bucket list.

Amboseli/Tsavo West Safari
Daniel arranged a great three night safari for us to Amboseli and Tsavo West in January. His local knowledge helped us plan an interesting trip that effectively used the time which we had available. He found us good quality accommodation at a reasonable price. We also used his Toyota Land Cruiser which has a lift up roof that gave us great views of the animals. His driver, Peter, was brilliant. Peter knew the wildlife and used his local contacts in the Park to find out the position of the latest sightings. We saw lions, cheetahs and a leopard in those three days. We have used Transtrek again since this trip and I would definitely recommend them.
A brilliant introduction to Africa
From the first email providing advice ,until boarding the plane home, Transtrek provided a seamless service discussing our particular requirements ,suggesting possibilities and then delivering a holiday which the family will never forget.
We saw so much, be it the animals, birds , the drama of the landscapes or the people. The visit to the Masai village will always remain the highlight with Kilimanjaro & elephants in the background. The driver, Peter, was fabulous, finding all the big animals including a pride of lions with cubs and answering our endless questions with enthusiasim. The accomodation that Transtek booked was unforgetable whether the park lodges or the tented village.
We cannot wait to return

A mind-blowing trip...
We had a relatively short 10 days in Kenya, but the team at Transtrek were superb and really helped us get the most out of our time. They put together a great itinerary for us, covering a range of habitats and special sites, staying at perfectly chosen lodges. We covered a lot of ground and really packed in a lot but the helpful, friendly and knowledgeable Transtrek team made us feel relaxed and right at home. If we’re lucky enough to visit the region again we will be back in touch with Transtrek to organise our next safari!

Friendly, efficient, and completelky understood what we were looking for.
My wife and I were organizing our own trip to Nairobi and Mombasa, but wanted to include some safari travel. I knew what I wanted - not rock bottom accommodation but equally not over expensive. I found all the information on the web-sites rather overwhelming, trip adviser reviews unreliable, and impossible to make decisions.
I liked the look of Transtrek safaris web-site and had a good telephone conversation with Daniel. He was clearly very knowledgeable (English but living in the country with his young family) , immediately understood what I was looking for, and made excellent proposals. I had already wanted to stay a couple of nights in a community run and very cheap rooms near one of the parks, and even though this was not on his usual list, that didn't worry him, and he made the complete booking to include them. An excellent driver and guide picked us up in Nairobi and accompanied us during our visit, and then drove us on to Mombasi.
I would throughly recommend Transtrek to anyone visiting Kenya for the first time, - and for a return visit!

Knowledgeable and helpful
Daniel really helped two complete novices navigate the enormous options of where to go and what to see. He tailored the experience to us perfectly.
Tony our guide was brilliant, nothing was too much effort and his knowledge seemingly endless.
I highly recommend this company
Reliable and responsive.
I recommend getting Kenya experience with Transtrek. They help you design your trip based on your needs and then take care of everything for your hassle-free holidays. I will use them again.

The entire experience was great - the guide, the animals, the campsite…
The preparation was very easy, and the service was door to door. Our guide, Toni, was great at knowing where the lions were napping, and the hippos bathing. He did not merely show us the animals, though. He shared so much information about Kenya and its culture. He was a perfect guide, in my opinion - to be highly recommended.
