2 days Masai Mara - road trip & safari experience
4/5

Initially while booking this trip i had requested for some changes in the itinerary as some of our friends were flying back early & it was planned accordingly with a reasonable price USD 200 per person (group of 5). Rose came to pick us up at the airport shows her dedication towards clients. Next day early morning we were off to Masai Mara in a VAN which was a bit old & you can hear the loud sound of shaky windows specially when the journey reaches the bumpy part, however it wasn't too bad if your not traveling with kids because you get to see nice views and animals even before reaching national reserve (6 hours journey). By mid day afternoon we reached our camp miti mingi eco camp, we were warmly welcomed by camp staff & get to choose the tents as we wanted. Lunch at the camp was a bit disappointing, no choices specially for those that doesn't eat red meat although the chef PAPA made it up for Dinner & next day breakfast. Its advisable to request the food preferences in advance. The best & most amazing part was the national reserve game drive, our driver James was the best loads of experience & all the requests were fulfilled as we saw almost everything with close encounters. We were very lucky that day :)

Overall good experience, dedication to improve the experience. It can be better the with few fixes.
I will definitely refer safari line defender to my friends.

4/5

Me and family were satisfied. The four wheel van was just superb, it made us feel insurmountable-- something about the tour guide.. I think he does not just simply want to be a guide - he possesses what the company is up to, just careful.
We had a really nice experience and my wife is already ambitious to be back soon. Something I have to mention as well is that we were adequately advised before leaving the city for our safari.
Thank you guys.

Basic but great!
4/5

The communication with Rose our contact was very efficient, everything ran very smoothly, for the price the tour was amazing and the wildlife viewing was incredible. If your priority is to see amazing wildlife at a reasonable price, this tour is definitely for you. Our tour took in the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli over 6 days. I have traveled all over the world viewing wildlife and this was definitely one of my all time best experiences. Accommodation, food and transport were highly functional, but I do not go wildlife viewing to be pampered I wish to feel the experience in the flesh not from inside some luxury cocoon. Our guide James made great efforts to ensure we saw all the amazing wildlife that Kenya has to offer and overall I was very happy with the experience. After the 6 day safari, Rose organised a 2 day trip for me to Mount Kenya, which was also incredible, got to see a genet but you do not a reasonable level of fitness for this trip. My guide on this trip was Jimmy and I had a great two days discussing life in Kenya with him as we climbed the mountain, admired the scenery and observed the wildlife.

Great budget company!
4/5

The experience of doing a safari in Kenya was incredible! I did a five nights safari: 2 in Masai Mara, 1 in Lake Nakuru, and 2 in Amboseli.
Rose is very nice and answered all our questions. I just think that the communication could be better, specially right before and on the first day of the trip. I was a bit lost.
Our guide/driver, James, is very experienced. He knows where to spot the animals. We saw the big 5 in one day!
Really loved the experience!
