Absolutely amazing holiday with the best guide in Kenya! Couldn’t ask for more.
Communication prior was great. We had a severe food allergy in our group and at every lodge it was addressed appropriately and kindly. Our tour guide Musa was the absolute best. 16 years of experience and very clearly a well-known leader among the other guides. He struck the perfect balance between giving us the best possible experience and respecting the animals and the earth. The lodges were all incredible and were an unbelievable value. The food at each lodge was also amazing. Some of the beds weren’t great but that’s expected when traveling. We thought an 8 day safari might be a little too much but by the end we were very sad we couldn’t do more. Again, can’t say enough good things about Musa, I’m not sure I can ever do a safari without him! He is an absolute gem and gave us the most unforgettable experience.
Only recommendation for improvement is to not do the Maasai village tour. It was very uncomfortable and we felt preyed upon. We were separated and they basically demanded quite a bit of money. Would much rather support through responsible travel and buying things as we go.
Will absolutely use Denhum Holidays in the future and highly recommend to family and friends.

Great trip in a great country
Email communcations before the trip were vey good, the driver (Musa) was extremely kind and professional.
A pity that we couldn't stay at the expected hotel the day of our arrival (after a long trip) due to some reservations problems.
Flexibility of Denhum holidays was good as well.
Sopa hotels were a 10!

Fantastic
We had a wonderfull time as a familly during our 7 days safari in Kenya. Thank you to Maxwell our guide who was an expert at driving us through Masai Mara, Naivasha, Nakuru and Amboseli and spotting an extraordinary number of wild animals. An unforgetable experience!

Return by family to where they grew up and went to school-- Kenya and Tanzania
Denham Holidays was picked from about five other safari companies to supply a safari of remembrances for our family of 6 for TZ. and for 8 in Kenya. The initial inquiry was responded to in a 1 day time frame, which was miraculous, usually taking 4-10 days to do so. Everything we requested as far as the kind of lodging, places to go and the animals we saw would rate 5*. The Tanzania part of our trip, which was 6 days, was beyond excellent. The driver was very personal, interacting very good with the family, all of whom were fluent in Swahili. It was a fun and rewarding time of re-visiting places in Tanzania that we knew so well.
The Kenya part of the safari, which was 7 days, was very rewarding in terms of animals seen and lodging. Samburu, always our family favorite, lived up to, and actually exceeded our remembrances of past visits. This was given 4 stars because there was a problem with the vehicle, which was remedied after our 2 days in Amboseli, and miscommunications between the transport company and Denhum Holidays. These were corrected, and we arrived at Nairobi in plenty of time to depart at midnight for our return to the U.S.A. Would I recommend Denhum Holidays? I already have, and the family has contacted Ian Njoroge, and he has replied as they look forward to visiting the same 2 countries in the near future.

Five star experience
Our safari experience was exceptional right from the start. Our guide (James) was informative and helpful, and went out of his way to share his beautiful country with us. I would highly recommend Denhum Safari holidays.

Great company, nothing too much troible
So accommodating, helpful and flexible. They altered things to meet out requirements, nothing was too much trouble. Excellent guide with a degree in Wildlife and Conservation so full of interesting facts on the animals and he also knew his Kenyan birds. He was very helpful and put himself out to ensure we had a good safari. Vehicle great and comfortable. Would definitely pick this company if we did an organised safari again.

Magic
I finally was able to see the famous Wilder beast migration. It was a wish I had since childhood.
The excellent staff of Denhum made this a magic trip I will never forget. Where so many things could have gone wrong they made shure everything went perfectly right. Thank you for arranging the best room available in the lodge. Thank you for arranging the special food I need for medical reasons. Thank you for driving to places where others didn't go. Thank you for the bonus of the lion and ellefant families.
Thank you thank you

No words to describe it, we had the best
Where do I start? Got denhum holidays through I friend and everything went easy than I thought from booking to payment made so by Felix who seemed to give information like he was educating us on what we need to know than soliciting business from us. We didn't expect to be met at the airport as we had made own arrangements for the first night in Nairobi. Free transfer did humble us even more. Our guide has been great so far having been with him for 9 days, we confidently say he is the best. Thanks Reuben. We have been to masai mara 3 nights, 2 nights rift valley 2 nights Samburu 1 night mt Kenya and we are in our last night of 2 nights Amboseli. We have had the best more than bargained orvthought of including free sundowners with drinks and visit to samburu and masai villages

Kirimi, our driverguide was amazing. humble, kind & great driver, great knowledge of Africa, History and culture.
Took us to Tsavo East and Amboseli. We saw many animals and had some great close ups with lions and elephants. Great experience.
Over all great accommodation, vehicle (4x4), and food! Would highly recommend Denhum Holidays! NB: They even did a stop over for us to grab Nyama Choma on our way back :)

Beyond our expectations
We selected this company as they offered exactly the safari we wanted to do. The communication with Denhum Holidays has been quick and easy and the whole trip has been organized within hours. The guides who leaded us through the parks in Kenya and Tanzania were excellent. They explained us many things about wildlife and African nature and were brilliant at spotting the animals which we would have missed without their competence. Overall we saw more game than we expected and we've been more than satisfied by the services offered by Denhum Holidays.
