Exceptional safari planners
5/5

Choosing this agency as my travel company was the best decision I made for a vacation with my mother and my brother. I reached out to them via email. Shortly after contacting them I received the information of what my trip would entail and they advised me on the Masaai Mara trip since it was during the great migration at the destination during my conversation with Paul our agent he asked many questions, very interested in finding out about my family and what we would prefer to see and do, he truly took the time to get to know us so that he could help plan a memorable experience.
I couldn't have been happier with the itinerary that Paul presented to us. It made the trip real and incredibly exciting, during the trip the driver was so much helpful nothing phased him and he seemed completely happy to help and guide us on the wildlife and every aspect we encountered. It is terribly hard to pick out the good things of our trip because everything was so stress free and amazing. This company was a blessing to us and I would use them and recommend them everywhere and they will be forever in our hearts because of the hard work they did to ensure our time and travel was perfect. My friends and I are planning another safari at the end of the year in Amboseli and Serengeti Tanzania and we will definitely book with Simba Paka safaris.

An excellent operater
5/5

Excellent organisation with nice people, conducted the tour to Masai Mara with great expertise. Driver Charles, ever smiling person, willing to be pro active at all times managed our trip to Masai Mara efficiently and left hardly anything to complain.

Service in Mara was a little to be desired. There was no proper water supply in Toilets.
Communication was excellent.
Strongly recommend this operater .

3 days masai mara wild best migration safari
5/5

Safari in Kenya feels authentic, unlike many other safari destinations such as South Africa, India or Thailand. Animals are not tagged, so the search for them feels exciting and real. The parks are designed to protect the animals from overexposure to tourist cars and an effort to preserve the natural feel for their habitat is evident. I did a 3 days masai mara national park with simba paka safaris they offered me a fantastic safari and I will hihgly recommend them . Thanks very much simba paka

Great driver and agenda but they may overcharge you for small things
4/5

Pro
- The driver I had was amazing. He knows all the spots and makes the journey smooth
- Their written communication via email is good. They always reply within a few hours
- You can basically join any time, no need to reserve a week in advance

Con
- I’ve found the in-person communication to be not sincere, as I got overcharged in person and it feels like they’d take any opportunity to earn extra money from me
- The agenda includes fixed time at shopping area, and people can easily feel forced to buy things

5 Stars, 3-day safari at a great value!
5/5

I decided on a 3-day solo, group joining tour and Paul, the owner exceeded my expectations! He answered questions promptly and coordinated airport pick up and drop off and also arranged a private driver to take me to the Elephant Orphanage and Giraffe Center after the Safari. His friendly manner, prompt communication, and reasonable cost was what made me choose Simba Paka. We saw so much wildlife on the game drives, you cannot go wrong with them!

Exceeded expectations
5/5

I went on a 4 days Masai Mara safari with Simba Paka on a joint tour, and it exceeded my expectations.

Organizing and communicating with Paul was quick, smooth and clear. Separate credits for our guide Solomon who would always chose the best spot for watching animals, or would spot a lion from a mile away, or would stop for an instagrammable sunset picture.

The accommodation for a mid-range also was better than expected, the car in a good shape, neat and tidy. The plan of the day clear and well communicated.

Overall, Paul or Solomon would take care of everything and one can just sit back, relax and enjoy the best of the safari.

Wonderful experience

Our driver Kalifa drove my wife and me in an amazing tour to discover the life of the wild animals in the park. A very nice guy, excellent driver with an impressive knowledge of the park. Everything worked perfectly. I can strongly recommend this company.
