From start to finish the tour operators were amazing. Very communicative, flexible, and during the tour they were knowledgeable, friendly, and skilled with navigating the national park. Wonderful experience overall!

The organizational work is done well
5/5

We paid for a 5-day safari, but others in the minibus paid for 7 days. The first 4 days were together and we said that we would not go further to Amboseli National Park. After a frightened look, the driver called and found out that my family was being taken by another car.

We received special help in buying train tickets and getting to the train station.

I hope to see you again!

The national parks are wonderful, they exceeded all my expectations. Fantastic adventure, and we got an extra experience for free: Getting stuck in the mud with a minibus.

Great experience and amazing nature. Communication could be a bit better.
4/5

We had a very satisfactory experience during our 8 day tour that included Masaai Mara, Tangarire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. The safaris were amazing. Although we opted for the budget tour, we were surprised a few times with upgrates in our accomodation. Food will not be a highlight of this trip as it's not usually not very varied.

The guides drove us around the parks and they make a huge effort to show us all the animals. They would always stop if you ask for and wait for you to take pictures. However, they not always provide a lot of information about the animals all the organizational details. They mainly focus on driving and show us the animals.

In general the tour was very well organized and everything worked out, but the communication could be a bit better. Bienvenido mixes a couple of other tour operators, which was not clear to us, so a few times we didn't fully know where to go or who to follow. We also didn't have enough information of the logistics to move around and we had some last minute changes, although we understand that it's not easy to put such a trip together. We have to say though that Kennedy answered all of our emails and messages straight away and was very helpful.

Eye-opening
5/5

We went on a 3-day safari from Nairobi to Amboseli and Tsavo, to finish off in Diani. What an unforgettable adventure it was!!! Starting with the unique nature and the absolute beauty of the wildlife, and finishing with the terrific guide Nico who’s experience, sense of humour and kindness greatly facilitated our satisfaction, and ended up as a top highlight of our trip to Kenya. Benvenido was always very responsive, facilitating and super pleasant to deal with, so thank you for that! If we ever to go back again, it must be with you and Nico! Thanks so much:)

Poor management, lack of flexibility but great guide
2/5

Before confirming our tour with Bienvenido Kenya Tours and Safaris, I made sure to ask explicitly if the place we were going to stay at was the one I had mentioned, even sending a link for reference. To our surprise, the camp they confirmed via email had nothing to do with the one I had asked about. They offered us another camp for a much higher price. We suggested splitting the additional costs, but they refused.

I don't think they intended to scam us, but their lack of flexibility and taking responsibility for their mistake left a bad taste. However, the two employees we dealt with remained polite, but it was not their call to make things right. I blame the director/CEO who didn't want to discuss the matter at all or take any final accountability despite recognizing their mistake.

On a positive note, Nico, our guide, was fantastic. He knew a lot, was happy to answer questions, and was just a really nice person to spend time with during those two days.
