The review below is the personal opinion of Brendan and not that of SafariBookings.
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.
