Exceptional moments with CATS Africa Tours
5/5

Went on safari to Kenya organized by CATS Africa and I must say that they gave us the best service and they don't leave anything to chance. The personalized attention given to us from the office to the wild was exceptional. Our expectations were exceeded thought the safari because our driver guide Moses had an eye for spotting animals.
I would recommend CATS Africa to anyone interested in memorable safari

We had a wonderful 9 day tour to Kenya. CATS Africa organized our safari so well and everything went smoothly. They gave us a pleasant program that we had never dreamed of. Jack our driver guide was so kind, helpful and patient with us. We will definitely use CATS Africa in our next visit and will recommend it to our friends here in UAE

This safari travel coordinator was definitely the right choice to plan our trip.
5/5

We gave CATS Africa Tours a budget, a timeline, and a list of things we wanted to do on our trip and they made it happen. It was almost effortless for us as they took over planning every detail. We knew nothing about the areas that we were travelling to so it was very nice to have people that were knowledgeable that could set us up with the appropriate accommodations for the types of things we were hoping to do and see while we were there.

Excellent Trip
5/5

We had an amazing, unforgettable experience. We settled for the Tembea Kenya safari on CATS Africa website.
The tour was very well organised, We visited 3 parks and saw loads of animals.
At the beginning we were not sure on which program to settle on but based on our budget CATS Africa recommended their program.
All we have is good memories. Thank you CATS Africa!

Our safari trip was amazing. Cats safari wanted us to have the best experience. We had mail contact before the trip and that was very professional. Our driver and guide Julius was very kind and helpful. We felt very safe with him!The food was great on the camp and the stuf was very friendly. Our bungalow was cute and clean.

We can truly recommend this safari company.

CATS Africa - Prompt, Experienced, Reliable
5/5

When I was looking for a Safari Operator, I sent mail to couple of operators. I got a prompt response from CATS Africa (Joyce, Operations manager) with a response.
The response was specific to my trip and addressed clearly the pickup and drop places time and the schedule.
It had the full program details on places that we will visit and what is included or excluded with options for accommodation.
It also stated my hotel from where I will be picked up, The driver name. There was also an image of the van I can expect for my travel - very transparent.
Later I was asked to pay. A proper invoice was provided to me to make payment along with their Bank details. I transferred money to their bank.
I also spoke to Joyce. Joyce confirmed the receipt of money promptly.

On the day of our trip Patrick ( our very experienced guide) greeted us(Me and my son) on time.
He briefed us and offered water bottle. We had a good travel to our Hotel in Masai Mara ( Mara Sopa Lodge).
On the way we visited the Great the Great Rift Valley floor. A sight not to be missed.
Patrick shared his experiences and we had a good long conversations on various aspects of Kenya.
He was a very kind, nice, friendly and knowledgeable person.
After checking into Mara Sopa lodge, we went for our first days short Game Drive .
It was a great experience seeing the Lions, Elephants, Cheetah, Antelopes, Wildebeest, Impala, Buffalo, etc on the first day itself.
Due to his experience, Patrick was constantly communicating with his "network of people" to know to find the animals.
This is the key to the trip. On top of getting a good operator, you should be lucky to get experienced and efficient guides.
After this first days's trip we returned back to rest in Mara Sopa lodge.
I will strongly recommend Mara Sopa for families and others due to Safely, excellent food ( including Vegetarian food), hospitality.

On Day 2 we promptly started at 6:30 to do a full day drive. Patrick was constantly checking with his network to take to us key points where animals can be found.
We saw - Elephants ( a lot), lions( plenty), Hippos (in Mara River), Hyenas, Banded Mongoose, zebras , Warthog , Giraffe
Saw the beautiful mara river and the points where animals migrate. we had lunch in the middle of the forest. First time and one time experience of life.
Thanks the Sopa Lodges who packed neatly our food and passed to Patrick.

After the trip we returned to Sopa Lodges to rest for the day and had an excellent dinner.

On Day 3 we visited the Tribal village to get to know their culture and customs:- Tribal welcome dance, their houses ( with no lights), houses with shelter for animal babies, sheds for Sheep, cows,
How the fire is made even today with sticks,

After this Patrick dropped us back to hotel. Patrick was an unexpected pleasant surprise to us. Well experienced, very friendly, always jovial and most importantly had the network and connections to know where to find animals.
In short, i will strongly recommend CATS Africa for any trip in and around Nairobi. If you are lucky get Patrick to guide you. I hope CATS Africa have more experienced and good Guides like Patrick.

This safari was absolutly wonderful, easy and well planning
5/5

It was very easy and clear to programme the tour and to pay for it from our country. The information that the company brought us was precise. All the plan was fulfilled. The places for lodging were confortable with variety of well done food. It got over our expectations. The driver-tour guide was very solicituos. Because of his knowledge of the places, we could see many animals, including the big five, in only three days. We enjoyed this tour as one of the best in our traveling experience.
