Undisputed excellence in service delivery
5/5

My wife and I had a great 12-day private safari with Adventure Backpackers Tanzania(Kenya) on August 2015.
We flew into Nairobi and went to Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli Notional Park and Lake Bogoria and then back Nairobi.
The parks are amazing and you will not be disappointed at all. During our safari, we actually saw more than we expected, from the big migration known as the biggest spectacle on the planet and finally we had a wonderful birding experience at lake Bogoria.
We ultimately chose Adventure backpackers Tanzania (Kenya) because Celestine, the manager and the rest of her team were very responsive and prompt as per service delivery and displayed exceptional patience to meet our expectations and she was always there to make sure that our itinerary is not disported in any negative way whatsoever.
Our guide and driver Sam was friendly and professional. They answered all our questions and even during the safari they told us alot about the animals, local people and the country as a whole. they also knew alot about the animals and seemed skilled at navigating the parks to enable us to get the perfect viewing angle.
I would recommend whoever visiting Kenya to contact Celestine, the manager together with her team for a classic service delivery, efficiency and pocket - friendly rates.
We were very happy and confident with Adventure backpackers Tanzania(Kenya)s' responsiveness from the planning phase to the end and its willingness to design a private safari based around our interests.
everything else from accommodation, the food and communication skills was just perfect due to their flexibility to satisfy us.

Great service, great people, great safari!
4/5

I booked the 9-Day safari trip to Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, Amboselli, Tsavo West and East and loved every minute of it. My budget wasn't that big and Celestine, the owner, offered a very affordable itinerary along some of the best parks and reserves in Kenya. I booked the standard package and found the first nights in Mara, where I slept at Lenchada tented camp brilliant. I love to go camping and this place is beautiful, just don't expect brand new beds and scolding hot showers. Back to basics, but I love that. It did made me realize that instead of the hotels they booked for me that were in the city (Nakuru, Naivasha and Voi) I actually wanted to sleep in nature as much as possible. When I asked Celestine to see if she could change the accommodations mid-trip, she immediately offered me other options and provided great service. She and guide John found great alternative spots that same day which really enhanced my trip. So, a big 'thank you' to them both! If you are planning a safari, please don't hesitate to ask them for more details about your accommodations. It's good to know the places you will go and stay beforehand and ask yourself if that is what you're looking for. I'm sure they can arrange whatever requests you have, and really want you to have the best possible experience. My trip was great and I certainly recommend Adventure Backpackers for your safari. A special shout-out to John, my guide, who was great company! I spent 6 days with him in a mini van, so I should know. John is very knowledgeable about the parks, the animals and their behaviour and made sure I got some really great shots is. Beside that, he's funny and keeps up with what goes on in the world, so you're never bored. Thanks again John and Celestine!
