Always willing to find the best options
We booked a 3 day tour to Tsavo East and West. Our driver Omari was excellent. As well as a driver as a guide. He knew where to find the animals and thanks to him we were able to see the big 5. Our last day we saw a group of more than 200 buffalo's running to the water pool. So special. The hotels we stayed were basic but good. It was a once in a lifetime experience.

Thoroughly enjoyable!
We loved our two day safari experience with Ben as our guide. Starting with the hotel pickup, Ben shared interesting tidbits and insights throughout the trip as well as educating us about the animals we were seeing. He was patient, stopping whenever we saw (or thought we saw) wildlife. The van was clean, there was plenty of water, and we felt completely safe. We stayed at Voi Lodge which we found charming and rustic (no TV) though completely modern. The meals were served buffet style and offered many delicious options. We enjoyed our food while observing wildlife gathering at the watering holes below the covered open air dining room. The whole experience was delightful.

Amazing Amboseli, don’t pass this up!
To start off let’s be honest; there are so many different safari companies it can be overwhelming. Almost to the point they appear to be a scam. These reviews seem to never say anything negative and and after our safari I can see why. But, to start off with one minor negative here it is: There was some slight confusion around pickup timing (partly my fault). We had a 3 am arrival at Nairobi airport and our driver was about 30 min late which had us anxious but sure enough, the driver showed up at the international arrivals area with our name. Due to laws around driving tourists, we had to wait until sunrise (just after 6 am), until we could actually leave the airport and begin our safari. This wasn’t explicitly communicated with my booking contact Max but that was ok. We had a nice little breakfast and got to chatting with our driver. Only other negative is that we couldn’t stay longer!! This was truly a life changing experience and if you are reading reviews about where to go and for how many days we felt 2 nights was almost perfect for Amboseli. We chose the 4x4 Land Cruiser/jeep and opted for the upper end of lodging and stayed at the Ol Tukai. This added around $500 more to the base tour cost but was 1,000% worth it as this lodge is one of the few located in the park unlike other accommodations listed. This meant we didn’t have to race out of the park at sunset. We could watch elephants and zebras until headlights were needed. This extra time although minimal, was such a bonus. The peaceful end to the each day watching elephants make their way home across the grasses were simply amazing and worth the added cost from this lodge. The facility and food were great too. We ate 3 big meals a day! Our driver Jared was fantastic. We bonded over those few days. He was so personable and learned about his family and had great conversations during the Safari. As for the Masai village tour that is optional we opted to spend more time in the park on our last day which Jared mentioned is totally ok, there was no pressure. It was also an added cost and we felt it wasn’t necessary for our trip. We saw tons of elephants, zebra’s, giraffe’s, gazelle’s, birds, hippos, and even a few lions which our guide has only seen 20% of the time in Amboseli. If you are deciding between the Masai Mara or Amboseli decide how many days you have. We only had time for 2 nights and were satisfied with Amboseli, but if you have enough for 3 or 4 nights could consider Masai. The park never felt crowded. If you are still reading this review just go for it! Once in a lifetime experience spend the money for the tour. It was worth every dollar even though the price could be tough to stomach. Ours was just shy of $2,000 USD but would do it again tomorrow if we could. This tour company is great you will be happy with them!

Good
The experience overall was good.
We made a tour in Kenya and Tanzania. The first part of the tour was with Alexander in a van. The tour guide was not that good as his English sometime wasn’t really clear. More over I don’t advise you to choose the van, as the roads are not suitable for this type of car.
The second part of the tour was with Bashir in a 4X4 and this was amazing. He was a great driver and guide.

This tour operator, and the driver Julius, were great!
This tour company and the driver Julius gave us a great tour of Tsavo East and West. We saw many animals, and the driver was very knoweldgeable about them and the plants, as well as the history of the area, the local culture, etc. We were brought to the Rhino Sanctuary in Tsavo West where we saw a rhino! I highly recommend African Mosaic and the driver Julius!

A friendly guy who was always looking for the time to ensure, we are not too late for activitys
The planning was excellent. It's not my first time in Kenya and not the first Safari. Tour was planned like I have requested! Prize was okay!
We have seen lots of animals in this amazing nature!
Only the fact, that the tourist hotspots were chosen for the brake was anoying!
I requested the driver to stop somewhere else because it was my 6th Safari and I know and HATE all these restaurants (incl. shops).
My wish wasn't followed and I had to waist my time there. I have bought food @ an petrol station because another brake wasn't performed ☹️!
