Overall good quality for the price
The guides were very helpful and flexible!
It was fun ! We stayed twi nights in a camp qnd one night at a 4 star hotel with a pool!
The experience was lovely!
Maybe you need to provide more water during the ride and make better food in the masai camp,
But overall very good for the price

Great tour to experience Kenyan wild life
Be prepared for some improvisation concerning logistics when joining a group tour but in the end, everything has been delivered and the program was respected. Communication was smooth as well. The safari itself was an excellent experience. Our driver was well experienced and patient, he provided the group with clear information. I loved the accommodation in a camp, it was simple but cozy. It allowed for bonding with other members of the groups so it's a great option of you're travelling alone. The tour offers good value for money and gives you a unique experience of the Kenyan wilderness.

An Unforgettable well organised Maasai Mara Safari Adventure
I recently had the incredible opportunity to embark on a safari adventure in Kenya's Maasai Mara, and I must say it was an absolutely fantastic experience.
The guides on our safari were truly outstanding. Their deep knowledge of the Maasai Mara's wildlife and ecosystems was impressive, and they shared their insights with enthusiasm. We felt safe and well-informed throughout our journey, and their passion for conservation was evident. Their ability to answer questions and provide context to our sightings added a valuable layer to our safari experience.
The tour operator, Trip Advisor Africa Safaris, we opted for our Maasai Mara safari truly exceeded our expectations. Their commitment to delivering a great experience was evident in every aspect of our trip. From the initial planning stages to our departure, they worked diligently to tailor our safari to our preferences. They attentively listened to our requests and made considerable efforts to accommodate them, leaving us genuinely impressed with the quality of their service.

From India we were connected to Vincent Seth from Trip Advisor Africa Safaries.
From India we were in touch with Ms Vincent Seth from Trip Advisor South Africa. As per our requirement our itinerary was arranged by her with short notice. We were lucky to see all 5 BIG & many more . Seth was in touch with us everyday to take feedback from us about the driver & our trip experience. She made us feel at home. Because of Seth, our trip was enjoyable, comfortable. We will definitely recommend trip through Seth to all my friends & family. Once again big thank you to Seth. Akuna Matata.

Affordable yet absolutely fantastic in making your dream African safari truly unforgettable
Seth made my first African safari so magical and wonderful. He was always making sure that I’ve been taken care of by the driver all the time. The way how everybody arrange their tours in Kenya was a bit confusing in the beginning yet everything worked out to be great and amazing especially with group tours in order to please everyone’s demand. Will definitely recommend to my friends and family if they come and visit Kenya.

I feel that Seth steal money
Seth offer packages at “very good prices” like we tells you that you are going to travel in a landcruiser and middle range cruises and the reality is that you use vans and you stay in tented camps.
We have talked with other persons about this and they were possibly scammed too
He makes a lot of pressure to pay for a safari when services are not confirmed

Seth is possibly a scammer! AVOID!
I contacted this man to make a Safari, because contact him I had checked out other options with other companies.
Long story short he offered a Lodge called AA Mara for all my group, all the other companies told me this lodge was not available but he said he had it and that the lodge was already booked for my group, I called the lodge to ask about this “booking” under my name or Seth name or company name and they said they didn’t have any booking from this man.
We gave 500 USD deposit and he said that he wasn’t going to give us our money back when we didn’t confirm to him about this, we were talking about either going to the safari or only make a city tour in Nairobi.
He was very bad replying to us and we said like we wanted to go to the police and he just made fun at me.
I lost 500 USD which I don’t care but hopefully I DIDNT transfer the rest of the money… he was very very very very insistent to make all the transfer,
WATCH OUT! The bank account is in Uganda not Kenia and this leave every one unprotected because once you transfer he stops replying you

Posted on Sep 1, 2023Hi Andriana,
I apologize for the inconvenience concerning reservation deposit of $ 500 which you send to our bank account . I understand that this cause a lot of inconvenience a above all money without proper reason is also very painful, especially the money which was meant for your group vacation.
After doing a lot of investigation even after your group arrive, to day morning, I visiting my web hosting, and I found that indeed you send the deposit, however there are some one who hack our account, and you were talking with someone else but not me.
Currently Mr Roman and the three others people are in Masai Mara, though they paid full amount , I am waiting for them tomorrow so that we can solve this problem, We will agree on how you will get your money back since the mistake is on our side,Please may I also get your account number so that I can refund this money back, since the mistake is on our side,you sand the deposit as per our agreement but our account was hacked by someone else. We have alredy move with speed and our web hosting has already change everything concerning this, and I hope this will not happen again.
Sincerely
Seth Vincent

Great experience, go with the flow
We had a fantastic experience on the 4 day Masai Maara and Lake Nakuru Safari. Seth was very quick to respond to all communications. At some points we weren't exactly sure what our itinerary was, and we changed game drivers between Masai Maara and Lake Nakuru which was unexpected, but totally fine because we got to hear from the expertise of two different drivers. So, just go with the flow and they will take good care of you!
We were super lucky to see the big 5. Our first game driver, Peter, was fantastic and made sure we had an excellent experience in Masai Maara, and our second driver, Jimmy was also awesome and made sure we saw everything we wanted to see in Lake Nakuru NP. Food and accommodations were also great, and as expected.
Thanks for the great trip!
