Great experience!
We had an amazing time on safari with Features Africa Journeys. We went on a three day, two night safari to Tsavo west and Amboseli national parks. Karanja was very helpful in arranging a safari itinerary to suit us, answered emails quickly and for a very decent price for our group of five. Michael was a superb safari guide, knowledgable and helpful. He managed to spot some lions in Amboseli from a point where they were mere specks to us!
Would fully recommend Features Africa Journeys as a safari tour operator, they managed everything with professionalism and speed.
Thanks for our first safari!

Not 1st time in Kenya.The tour guide, his equipment, and knowledge provided exhilarating travel.mdd
This was not the first time I went on safari in Kenya, but it was my first time with this company. They are fabulous. You will never forget your trip. I was glad to have a tour guide who loves what he does, the actual owner of his business. He knew where to find different animals in the park, and had an impressive advanced knowledge of the ins and outs of the park. In Nairobi National park, we found a black rhino whose picture I really wanted to take, but I had not mastered my new cannon 70D. No problem. Mr. Karanja s a fabulous photographer. He set the camera, and I came away with wonderful shots. So there was that extra advantage of having tech support when I needed it. You need a guide who stops when you want to stop, and Mr. KAranja was always willing to stop when, if, and as long as we wanted. I had not booked him for my trip to Nakuru national Park, but he gave us invaluable advice about it. He was very friendly and his van was super comfortable, and I definitely loved the way he got along with my teenage daughter who was traveling with me. I will travel to Kenya in the next two years, and I will not spend a moment looking for anyone else. I have used other companies before, but not any more. If you are planning to visit Kenya, look no further. If you are in a group or a family, you will be in good hands.

We had the most amazing day with Francis. It exceeded our expectations massively due to his skill
Communication was great, short turn around time. Francis was our driver and was amazing. We managed to see most of the parks animals and quite close up as well. It exceeded all of our expectations. Francis is a very knowledgeable, funny and down to earth guide and we would be honoured to have him again on any future Kenyan safaris.

Thanks for this good safari, with confortable lodges and a very good guide - driver Steve with whom we were able to take excellent photos of animals, birds, landscapes. Very good experience of 4 to short days.

Well organised, great customer service, fab wildlife, an excellent humourous and knowledgeable guide
We had a great time on our game drive round Nairobi National Park. Features Africa gave great customer service during the booking process and always replied to my queries quickly and professionally. They allowed us to tailor our day to visit the places we wanted.
The safari tour itself was excellent. Our guide (I think his name was Francis) clearly new the park very well and also communicated with other guides which meant that we saw a buffalo being (briefly) attacked by lions. He was also very knowledgeable about all the animals we saw and was able to answer my barrage of questions. We were given lots of information about the social structures and family groups of the different species we saw which I was particularly interested in.
We saw a huge number and variety of animals on our game drive (including lions, giraffes, rhinos, buffalos, hippos, zebras, impalas and many many more) which I still can't believe all live so closely to Nairobi.
Even the journey back through Nairobi after the tour was interesting and entertaining with Francis giving us lots of information about life in Kenya.

An incredible experience!
It was a very good time in the trips we did with Features Africa, they are very professional, pleasant, respectful, and very concerned about people. They also speak Spanish, which for us was very helpful, since communication made it easier for us. When we visited the Amboseli National Park they told us about the animals we could find, they played music in the background and that makes your visit to the park more exciting. We saw a lot of animals, I never imagine seeing so many, they know the place very well and they know exactly where each of the animals are.
The van is super comfortable, wide, the roof rises and that makes you can stand looking at the animals and take very good pictures.
I thank Features Africa, for making me live an unforgettable experience, for making the dream of seeing all those animals a reality, and being able to know beautiful places in Kenya, all this makes me want to return to that place and live new experiences !
Asante sana :)

The best safari experience
One of the best experience, the expectations were exceeded.
Together with a team of friends we went to Amboseli and Diani, the quality of the service, the information, and the knowledge of Evans made a truly unforgettable trip.
For us that your guide speaks Spanish was great.
and the price - quality ratio was the best.
Evans is an excellent person, 100% trustworthy and guide now step to be our friend.
I recommend this company, to all those who seek quality, experience, and friendship.

An Awesome Experience!
Our three-day trip to the Maasai Mara definitely exceeded all our expectations. Karanja’s keen eyesight and expert knowledge meant we were always seeing different animals and learning more about them. He really went out of the way to ensure that we had the most memorable experience possible.
Accommodation was spectacular, emails were answered really fast and everything worked out great. Would absolutely recommend to anyone.

Everyday big cats. Just what I wanted we were blessed
Perfect treatment, wonderful accommodations, patience with letting me get just the right photography shot. They are polite and perfect gentlemen with respect and knowledge about their country. They know the animals well and have interesting information without. Ring overbearing. Plus they are local people so I feel like I truly am supporting the country I so sdespatetly love and miss!

An Amazingly Comprehensive Tour of Kenya's Wildlife
This was a wonderful tour. Our guide showed up right on time, and we had a full safari van to ourselves so we were able to move around the van to see animals at different angles and take pictures. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about all the wildlife we saw, giving us a fuller picture of what we were seeing. Within the first 45 minutes of the tour, we had seen almost everything we had hoped to see - lions, giraffes, zebras, hippos, rhinos, and various types of gazelles. We saw even more over the next few hours, and then had an amazing time at the elephant orphanage and giraffe sanctuary, where our guide was very flexible and let us stay for as long as we wanted. At the end, our guide went out of his way to drop me off at the airport for my flight home.
