Very unprofessional... Horrible - a scam
I was suppose to go on a safari to tsavo East and West parks. Everything was arranged and the previous day some "clients" never arrived. I don't know if these clients ever existed but Eric the "manager" put me on another trip to masai Mara. I was supposed to leave the hotel at 9 am to go to Nairobi on the next day but Eric never shows up nor returned my calls. He took my 60$ as well as my 200$ deposit. I hope you never go on a safari with this guy (in any case, let me know if you see any animal...) basically a scam!!
Decent return for the price
Communicating with the operator was fairly easy while planning the tour. Overall quality and promptness of service from the operator was good. The actual tour corresponded with the plan. National parks were interesting places and absolutely worth seeing. Distances between parks, especially in Kenya, were long so that meant long hours of traveling. The quality of cars used in safari left quite a lot to desire, especially in Tanzania. For the most part the accommodation was satisfactory for a budget tour. Although in some places (Amboseli, Arusha) cleanliness of accommodation and service attitude of the staff were substandard.
Drivers/guides and chefs were top blokes and definitely worth a praise.

My 4 days at Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru were pretty awesome, i can't wait for my next R&R next year
I really enjoyed more than my expectations the best bargain ever for my vacation. I will recommend anyone willing to take a vacation to Kenya to go for Crossriver Safaris. One more thing, the driver was a good guide and the most important he knows all the types of animals so you can imagine how it was.

Make it private
Kenya, savannah, wild animals and endless bush. We did it private, only my family and experienced driver in 4x4 land cruiser (still working 43 years old).
Nothing worry about. Hakuna Matata.

Eric is very accommodating and reliable.
When we decided to book a safari at the last minute, we found Crossriver. Because the price was almost half of what the others charged, we weren’t sure if it was a legitimate company. After chatting online with Erick, he understood our hesitation and was very patient. We decided to go for it and we couldn’t be happier. Upon pick up, Erick introduced us to our tour guide, Joshua. We then proceeded to pick up another lovely couple who joined us for the next three days. Luckily we all got along perfectly and could share the anticipation and excitement of the epic adventure together. Joshua was so sweet and has many years experience finding the animals. Unfortunately we didn’t get to see the Rhinos, but we did see all the others, including a Chetah! The safari also includes a couple mini hikes, which was a pleasant surprise to be able to get out of the van. The lodges were not luxury but perfectly adequate. Overall it was the trip of a lifetime and we were so lucky to have found Erick and Joshua of Crossriver. We have no complaints, only gratitude for making our stay in Tsavo beautiful memory.

Great experience I'll never forget
One of the offers I got through Safari Bookigs was from Crossriver Safari. It was the most affordable one and after reading other reviews, we decided to pick that one. We weren't wrong!
The communication was efficient and easy going. The driver and Erick came to pick us up on time. The accommodation was nice and safari van was comfortable. The tour itself (Tsavo West and Tsavo East) was spectacular. Lifetime experience! We saw so many animals and the driver gave his best to show us everything we wanted. We have no complaints about anything. 100% recommended!

Nice accommodatios and we saw many animals
Communication was very fluid from the beginning. The prices were reasonable compared to other agencies and the accommodation was comfortable. We were able to see many animals and they were also flexible when we wanted to stay to watch a particular animal or group of animals.
