Very well run and professional, but with a personal touch
5/5

The safari was everything we had hoped for, and more. It was very well organised, the service was personal but still professional, the different accommodations were all excellent, and we had a marvellous time with a knowledgeable driver in a comfortable and suitable vehicle. A fantastic experience all round.

Well organised, interesting and exciting.
5/5

This was my first safari, and I could not have wished for a better experience. Everything was planned well, everywhere we stayed was excellent and everybody was helpful. Certainly a professional team. We visited Amboseli, Tsavo, Naivasha and Nakuru and saw the 'Big Five' as well as many, many other animals. A truly breathtaking trip. Highly recommended.

A mind-blowing trip...
5/5

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!

Best Safari Company Out There With a Personal Touch!
5/5

I was in Kenya doing research for my disseration for 28days and Transtrek organised a few mini Safaris for me to go on and I absolutely LOVED every trip. I went to Cresent Island, Nairobi National Park, Paradise Lost and an Elephant orphanage. I was able to see all the animals i wanted to like Lions, Giraffes and elephants alongside other animals i've never seen before. Transtrek were very attentive and as its a small family business they were able to provide a personal touch which was appreciated. They listened to everything i wanted and gave me so much more than I could have imagined!

I would recomend Transtrek to anyone looking to go on a safari holiday. It is an affordable luxury holiday which sounds paradoxical but with Trantrek is possible!!

A brilliant introduction to Africa
5/5

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

Amboseli/Tsavo West Safari
5/5

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.

Excellent / great value
5/5

Transtrek fulfilled a lifelong dream for me by being totally affordable. We were looked after from the moment we landed until we left and everything in between. The hotels / lodges we stayed at were fantastic we felt like we were living in the lap of luxury seeing some of the most spectacular wildlife during the day and night. Sitting in the bar at Kilaguni with a gin and tonic in my hand overlooking a waterhole seeing the most wonderful wildlife made me feel like a king. Being taken around in comfortable vehicles around the parks was just amazing. I couldn't recommend them enough.

Very proffesional and well planned trip by Transtrek. Could not stop telling my very good friends back in the UK what a fantastic time I had and how I would loved them to have been there to share the experience with me. Probably the best holiday that Ive ever had!

Safari and te coast
5/5

Can't say enough good things about Daniel making all the arrangements and Peter our driver who both went the extra mile to make the whole trip simply great.
Daniel layed out a range of options and helped us decide on the best option. Hotel at Diani beach was a gem and the safari accommodation was good too.
Peter was great drove safe and is really knowledgable about the parks and getting the best out of the game drives. 15 years experience and great contacts wherever we went to ensure we got to see as much as possible.
Would recommend to anyone

amazing memorable 10 day safari
5/5

While in Zimbabwe on holidays we gave Daniel at trans trek 2 days to organise a 10 day safari in Kenya for us. Trans trek looked after us from the moment we landed in nairobi til we left. Accommodation, vehicle, itinerary were all customised to suit our needs for close encounters with african wildlife. Peter our guide was very informative about the wildlife, a safe driver, and made our trip a very pleasant experience. The accommodation Daniel selected was top notch. Kilaguni serena lodge in tsavo west national park was really special with its waterhole constantly visited by the animals. An ever changing view for us to watch and photograph! We have very fond memories of Kenya.
