Terrific!
We had a great day with our guide, Stephen, on a day trip from Mombasa to Tsavo East NP. He was quite knowledgeable, and he knew exactly where to go to show us as many animals as possible. He even found a creative shortcut to avoid some of the traffic in Mombasa to be sure to get us back to the cruise ship on time for departure. We were quite pleased!

Extremely unreliable
I have used Kenya Bush Expeditions 3 times and have been let down twice.
My last Safari a week ago, somehow the email between them and me was hacked. I’m not sure if it was an outsider or someone within their organisation but I was told to pay for the tour upfront and when I arrived in Kenya I was told of the scam and advised they had not received payment for the tour.
They were kind enough to arrange something last minute but it was not the same as the original itinerary requested.
The driver arrived late to collect me on the first morning. When we approached our destination, over an hour and a half late, the driver stopped for a 20 minute breakfast. As a wildlife photographer this meant I had lost the whole mornings photo opportunity as the light was too harsh to take any photos in the park.
The driver just chased around the park for the day, he did not spot anything as he was driving too fast. Every time I asked him to stop he would respond, “you see something?” Or “must I stop?” Every time I had to repeat 3 or 4 times. Stop stop stop because he couldn’t follow a simple instruction.
On the second morning I wanted to take advantage of the good light for my photography as I had missed out on day 1. I arranged with him to meet at exactly 06:00 for a quick breakfast and leave at 06:15. Once again he was late. After being late the day before he didn’t have the decency to make sure he woke up on time for the arranged departure time.
Very disappointing, will not use them again.

Providing exciting range of Kenya's bio-diversity
Guide Peter N was enthusiastic and with great bush knowledge. Wide range of iconic scenery and we were able to tick off life time dreams with gerenuk, vulturine guinea fowl, lesser kudu and several more, in addition to the Big 5. Stately giraffes and abundant elephant family interaction.

Amazing!
Our tour guide Peter was amazing, very knowledgeable about all the animals and his communication skills were very good. Peter met all of our need nothing was too much for him. The safari was a once in a lifetime time experience, the lodges we stayed in were very clean and staff were friendly. Would recommend Peter to everyone! Would definitely use this company again.

Honeymoon Holiday of a Lifetime!
We booked to go to Kenya for our honeymoon knowing that we wanted to do a safari however with some many different tour companies choosing the right one was difficult. We ended up going with Kenya Bush and it was the best decision we ever made. They made our honeymoon so special picking us up directly from the airport and presenting us with some beautiful flowers and a bottle of champagne as a Honeymoon gift beforestarting our safari adventure with 2 nights in Amboseli, 1 in Tsavo west and 1 night in Tsavo East finishing in Mombasa. Peter our Guide and Driver is a huge credit to the company. His friendliness, humour and flexibility ensured a great adventure with some fantastic memories. He made us feel like our Honeymoon was as important to him as it was to us, organising little extras in hotels and tailoring the trip our needs.
His knowledge of the Kenyan Wildlife is extraordinary and through his communication with other drivers ensured we saw pretty much every animal we wanted to see!
A special shoutout to John as well for ensuring the booking procedure was easy and stressfree despite being a year in advance and for his communication in the build up to the trip.
Top 3 highlights for me were seeing the Leopard, a baby lion and the sheer amount of elephants (my wife's favourite) with Peter never complaining about stopping to marvel at them despite it being the 1000th elephant of the trip!

I loved it!!
The experience was wonderful. I took a day safari to Amboseli. No one else had booked the tour, and they didn't cancel it, so I'm very grateful for that. Edwin was an excellent guide. He really enjoys nature. He not only focused on large mammals but also allowed me to see birds and other animals. He's also a very careful driver. I also took a half-day safari to Nairobi National Park with Kenya Bush, visiting Sheldrick and the giraffe center. They arranged all the transfers. The guides were also excellent. I highly recommend this company.

Great trip
We started our 4 days private safari with Juma, a very experienced and friendly driver. We've been in 2 lodges inside the parks and they were stunning for the atmosphere and the view. Ngulia Lodge has the attraction of the leopard that comes to get the meat at night, kindly offered by the staff, Voi Lodge has a really stunning view from the heights. Except for rhino's we've seen all the possible animals. Juma knows very well what to do and what to search. Very good experience for us at a good price.

Amazing Place, terrible experience
My friend and I were very excited for this trip (Massai Mara 2 days). However, a series of events almost turned this trip into a nightmare. First, the driver (Edwin) arrived 40min late saying he had a problem with the car. The car was terrible; by far, the oldest car I have seen during the journey. As the car was very old, all the trip was very 'shaky'. On the way to Massai Mara, we had a flat tire and had to stop for change. More 30-40min wasted. Then, we had to stop to had the flat tire fixed before going to the park. Inside the park, the car broke and we were stuck there for FOUR HOURS. Four hours inside the park, and the driver and company gave no alternative option but to wait. This was very frustrating, as we were waiting for months for this trip. We understand that cars can break, but if the car was not soooo old, the odds of this event would be lower. Also, again, the company had no backup plan for this. To top it ofF, the driver was not so nice. At certain point he said that the elephants undesrstood his situation better than us. Needless to say what he meant... The following day the driver was very rude, did not enter the park and continue the trip as if we were wrong, not the company. We asked him if he could drop us at the airport - which would be nice after allll we have passed. He said no, that he could not change the itinerary. In conclusion: I do not recommend this company. We lost almost 5 hours of our time during the trip and we had no compensation
