AMAZING!!
5/5

My husband booked this trip for us for our honeymoon. He said Joyce was a pleasure to deal with over email, there were alot but nothing was an issue for her. We had two days in Masai Mara and one day at Lake Nakuru. Our driver Joseph picked us up from our airport hotel and drove us to Masai Mara first. He pointed out different places to us along the drive and answered all of our questions. We had a land cruiser and I'm glad we paid the extra for it, it's definitely worth it. The car was very clean, comfortable (the seats recline) and it had chilled water for us.

Masai Mara, what can I say, unbelievable, what a place! We were extremely lucky and seen the big 5, lions eating their kill, cheetahs hunting and catching a wildebeest, hippos, crocodiles, giraffes, hyenas, zebras and lots more. It was so exciting every day not knowing what we were going to see. Joseph was extremely knowledgable and was amazing at finding the animals. He treated them with respect not getting too close or staying too long with them.

We stayed at Entim Private Lodge and it was fabulous. We were treated like royalty by Musa and his staff. The tents were so lovely and bed was extremely comfortable. It has the real safari feel to it being open in the park but we felt safe with the Entim Warriors on watch. We woke up both nights to lions roaring, hippos groaning and hyenas laughing, it was amazing! When we came back after dinner on our first night, the had a bottle of prosecco in our room, with hot waters in our beds and chocolates on our pillows, what a lovely surprise! The provided a huge breakfast picnic for us with a great variety of food to feed about 10 ppl!

The drive to Lake Nukuru is bumpy so the land cruiser was ideal. It was nice to drive by all the small villages and see the children running out to wave hello to us :) In Lake Nukuru we saw white and black rhinos with babies, a newborn baby giraffe. We stayed at Savora Lodge here and it was very nice. It is a busy enclosed resort with good food, friendly stay and evening entertainment of African dancing and signing.

I have not stopped talking about this trip since we came home and have recommended CATS to all of our family and friends. Joesph was an absolute gent of a man, it is very clear he loves his job (how couldn't he). He had no issue getting up early for us as we wanted to see if we could see lions. We had lovely chats on the drives and I would 100% recommend him and CATS to anyone, we will definitely book with them again for our next safari trip!

The review below is the personal opinion of Jon A. and not that of SafariBookings.
Trip canceled cause of covid then their company email would just bounce back
1/5

I have tried 3 different emails
Info@cats-africa.com
Operations@cats-africa.com
Gm@cats-africa.com

Every single time it bounces back telling me the email isn’t valid.

Very disappointed. Not only didn’t get to go on my safari but essentially got robbed as everything was pre paid.

5/5

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.

A SAFARI TO REMEMBER
4/5

Our driver cum tour guide, Patrick, is quite knowledgeable about the Amboseli area and had all the necessary information for the tour. He was always punctual, courteous and very friendly too. The operations manager, Joyce was also very accommodating, she was patient and painstakingly answered the numerous questions I had before booking the tour. CATS Africa operated like professionals. Please keep up the good work.

Excellent service, with the best tour guide.. A safari that exceeded our expectations!
5/5

CATS Africa Tours, is an excellent option to make a safari to Kenya. They adjust the perfect trip to your needs.
We visited the main safari destinations like: Amboseli (amazing!!), Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara, where we were lucky enough to see the big 5 and twice!!
Each destination is meant to be different than the other one, where you can experience different things, meet new people and see different animals. In every place there was a new animal that we hadn't seen.
I truly recommend going to a Masai Village, because you get to know a different culture, their costumes and their lifestyle.

The hotels where great, very clean, nice, good food, close to the parks, and with excellent attention.
The communication with the agency was very good, they cleared all of our doubts and responded immediately.
About our tour guide...he was the best, he did everything in his power to make the most of our trip.

Amazing Tour & Amazing Company
5/5

Our trip to Maasai Mara exceeded our expectations. Throughout the booking process Ms. Joyce Njeri (Operations Manager) was extremely patient, informative & understanding. She answered all my questions patiently through emails (lots of emails). The communication was too good that Ms. Joyce replied to every email with details very promptly.

Our driver/ tour guide Ms. Joseph Mayungu was amazing. He knew the park very well, he knew all the animals, and he explained to us everything very well. We were not fortunate enough to spot the Big 5, but we have seen the Big 4 & several other animals & birds.

Matira Main camp was awesome. We are very much impressed with all of the lodging.

Joyce & Joseph, once again, Thanks for everything.

I highly recommend CATS Africa tours. We had a super fun, well organized safari tour. The transportation was comfortable, our tour guide Duncan was super nice, available and kept us safe at all times. The lodge was also very nice and welcoming, with great food and service. Communication with the organizer Joyce Njeri was always clear with fast replies. We loved the experience and felt like they took really good care of us. Thanks a lot!
