MORE THAN EXPECTED, PERFECTLY EXECUTED 16-DAYS SAFARI WITH GREAT GUIDE THOYA MADE US VERY HAPPY.
As it was our 6th african safari so we wrote itineraire and choose all lodges. Reasonable price and very good opinions were the reason we decided to make a deal with WildlifeSunSafaris and it was optimal decision. James, the owner was precise and fast with all needed informations and negotiations by e-mail. He wait us at Kenyatta airport.
We asked for Thoya as a guide and James kept this promise and all others.
Car was new and our itinerary was executed perfectly and very smooth.
Thoya is a very good driver, great guide, smiling guy with wonderful sense of humor and finally HQ friend.
We enjoy our trip very much, made over 1500 photos and 3hours film.
We hope we'll make our next safari together with Thoya and WildlifeSunSafaris.
Thank you, guys

Great Safari (5 days - 4 nights) Nairobi - Mombasa.
James was reacting quickly. Gave a good overview of the proposed safari. No problem to make a change to another lodge.
Driver/Guide (Toya) is driving safe. We had a mini bus for the 2 of us. He saw the animals even before us while driving !! Also good company.
Lodges were fine. Clean, good food, beds and shower.
Can advise to book Wildlife Sun Safaris.

Excellent Experience
Our experience booking with wildlife sun safaris was an excellent one. Working with James to customize our trip and arrange for all of our travel between locations was a breeze. We were able to stay longer in some places and get dropped off in the best location at the end. The accommodations were amazing each property we stayed at had an excellent staff and very comfortable rooms. The highlight of our trip was our driver and personal tour guide Jackson. He did an amazing job showing us around and ensuring we had the best experience. He was always on time and went above and beyond to make sure we saw the most we could. We will definitely be booking with Wildlife Sun Safaris when we go back!

Brilliant experience with Wilflife Sun Safaries
I recommend everyone to chose this travel agency. They are very responsible and serious. I would like to point out that James, who is in charge of arrangement of safaris, is an outstanding hard worker and very kindly. They did their best. I was in Nairobi, then in Masai Mara and finally in Diani beach. They arranged all trip and was perfect. I also had a minor problem (lost a flight) that they solve as fast as they could do it without any extra-charge. To sum up i only have to say thank you James I would repeat again with your company without any doubts.

It was great
We visited Kenya with WildLife Sun Safaris in September 2019, the duration of the tour was 7 days. This was our first safari. We chose the parks of Masai Mara, Naivasha, Nakuru and Amboseli. I think it was a great choice. All the parks are completely different, unlike each other. In Masai Mara, they saw the most of cats - lions (and loners, and a whole pride dormant in the bushes), cheetahs (they even saw how the cheetah tried to catch a water goat, as the other cheetah finished its prey), leopard (quietly dozing on a tree). On Lake Naivasha there was an excursion to the island, where only herbivores live, you could walk around the island without a car, which after two days of safari in a car was a miracle. The animals were pretty close. Hippos swim on the same lake. On Lake Nakuru, four rhinos were seen. The only thing that disappointed that there were virtually no flamingos on the lake, if you are interested in these birds, you need to try other options, since they have not been on this lake for a long time. In Amboseli there were a huge number of elephants and hippos swimming in the swamps. It was also possible to see a cheetah, a serval.
Accommodation was in excellent hotels, with all amenities. Upon arrival we were met. The driver was neat. Everything was well planned and organized.
Of the minuses, I want to note the fact that the company, trying to save money, uses one ticket for several days, the ticket itself is valid, as I understand it, 24 hours. If on the previous day you stopped at the park at 9 am, then the next day you can still visit the same park from early morning until 9 am In Masai Mara, this moment did not bring us discomfort. But in Amboseli on the last day we had a lot of free time, and we left the park at 9 o’clock in the morning, as the ticket was until 9 in the morning. I want to note that all predators are most active in the morning and evening. And until 10-11 there were great chances to see more cats, and we already left. If I knew this moment in advance, I would prefer to buy tickets to the park at my own expense. Or we’d better stop by the park the previous day and watch animals there before sunset (and we were there only until 16, and there were no predators at all during the day). And the next day, respectively, in the morning would be more there. Although people who do not really want to see cats, this may not be so important. In any case, I ask you to pay attention to this and consult with tourists what they prefer.
In a couple of years, we want to repeat this experience, but already go purposefully to observe the cats. We were not enough for 7 days.

Unforgettable Safari Experience
It was our second time visiting Kenya. We have booked a 7-day trip with Wildlife sun safaris. The trip was very good and we have experienced many unforgettable moments with the wild animals. The guide was very kind and nice and we had learned a lot from him, not only about the wild animals as well as life, culture in Kenya etc. The accommodation was good as well not only in the Safari but also in the beach. If any of our friends would want to visit Kenya, we will no doubt recommend wildlife sun safaris to them.

Wonderful experience!
We had a 14 days tours with Wildlife Sun Safaris. 10 days of Safari and 4 days in Diani Beach. We went to Masai Mara, Nakuru, Bogoria, Navaisha, Amboseli, Tsavo west and Tsavo East. It was a great experience! We saw the big fives and many other animals. Wonderful landscapes too. Our guide Thoya was very profesional and friendly. He drove very safely. The communication with James was always easy and efficient. We saw him at the beginning and at the end of the tour. The tented camp, lodges and hotels were very nice.
The experience was really great and we completely recommend Wildlife Sun Safaris.

Best safari in kenya
We were on a 5 day long safari from Nairobi to Amboseli national park and tsavo east and tsavo west. Everything went smoothly with James in the beginning. he always responded to our queries by email within 1 day and although the deposit is made prior to the safari by bank transfer, all went great.
Niki was our driver and we always felt in safe hands. he is a very experienced driver who knows a lot about kenyas history and wildlife and explained everything whenever you had questions. we felt very comfortable and Niki always met our expectations. He made sure we see lots of animals and most of the time was one of the first drivers who arrived when an animal was seen. we would definitely choose wildlife safari again and choose Niki again as our driver, he became a dear person to us! thank you again. we would highly recommend it.

Very nice trip - Tsavo East / West - Amboseli
Very good organized Safari. All pick up's in time. Driver very friendly, careful and experienced. We have seen all the usual animals like lions, giraffs, Buffalos, elephants and a lot more (but I dont know the english names :-)
Wildlife Sun Safari was our joice because the Price was much lower then from european agents or the hotel offers. Okay, the car was not realy new and our first lodge was..hm… one night, okay. A lower Price Contents compromises. On the other side: it's better if a local Agent Profits.
This may not Sound very enthusiastic but realy: we enjoyed the Safari and we will contact Wildlife Sun Safari next time again !!!

An adventure to remember!
I am very happy to give a glowing review of Wildlife Sun Safaris! My friend and I are from the U.S. and went on a 5-day getaway from Nairobi to Mombasa through Amboseli, Tsavo West/Taita Hills and Tsavo East. From start to finish the experience was comfortable, reliable and a ton of fun. Arranging our custom itinerary and coordinating the all-inclusive payment with James online was a breeze, and on the day we started the safari, James himself settled us in our private vehicle with our driver-guide, Jackson, put his business card in our hands, and told us he would call to check on us when we arrived in Mombasa: a promise he delivered on. Each one of our accommodations were fantastic, and our requests for twin beds and vegetarian food were easily met. And of course, we highly recommend our very experienced guide Jackson, who took such great care of us and made the experience in the parks flawless and memorable. Thanks to his expertise, we saw the most incredible wildlife and scenery well off the beaten path, away from the other noisier safari cars. He demonstrated such rich knowledge of the animals and patiently answered all our questions about the parks and the country...be sure to ask him about his bird field guidebook! Jackson was so observant and attentive to our safari interests, communicated well, delivered us safely to all our destinations, and amid all the beautiful spontaneous sightings in the parks, somehow we always stayed on schedule. I've already been telling family and friends to look up Wildlife Sun Safaris if they're ever in Kenya, and would definitely call on them again.
