Trip of a lifetime!
I would give SunUp Adventures more than 5 stars if I could! Before the trip even began, Chris was very responsive to all my messages and made sure everything was in order for our trip. We went on a 7 day private safari, and everything was very well organized. John was our safari guide, and he was amazing to say the least. He is very knowledgeable about the animals and parks, along with being a genuinely nice person. He made sure we saw every Big Five animal up close and personal, along with so many more! All the lodges we stayed at were above our expectations, and there was always more than enough food and water. I would highly recommend booking your safari trip with them for a trip of a lifetime!

Amazing Safari with SunUp Adventures
Johny and Chris from SunUp Adventures were fantastics in taking care of us during our trip to the Maasai Mara. We had some incredible sightings and great time in Kenya. This is our third time in the Mara and as always Johny has been nothing short of spectacular. Very attentive and going the extra mile to ensure we have a great time. Great service, tour very well organised and professional team. Thank you SunUp Adventures and recommend them to anyone going to Kenya.

Safari tailored to our needs
We spent three days and two nights with SunUp Adventures. Specifically our trip was to do a safari in Amboseli NP. Communication was always prompt and Chris happily accommodated a change in dates after our return flight was rescheduled to a day earlier.
DAY 1: Met at our hotel by Chris and Robin. We made the trip from Nairobi to our accommodation and then did an afternoon/night safari.
DAY 2: Full day safari.
DAY 3: We opted for no safari but returned to Nairobi later in the day.
Overall SunUp fully met our expectations. The accommodation was nice, however drinks were expensive and its food was amongst the worst I've had anywhere. Safari vehicle was very comfortable.
Note about Amboseli NP: only three of the big five are there, but it's very good viewing for elephants (we saw two mating) and the backdrop of Kilimanjaro is phenomenal. Pay attention on the way to the park as we saw cheetahs about 1km outside official boundary (park is not fenced).

Excellent service and attention and the guide was the best
Communication was very smooth, everything was done via WhatsApp the team was always ready to replay, when I ask for a different hotel they swiftly send the the info and rates. My safari trip was 5 days on 3 different locations but after visiting I would definitely consider to take out one of the destination and allocate that day in one of the others, in part so I could enjoy the installations better and some game reserves are better than others, either ask for more details of what to expect on each park or do more research about it, even though I went in February, which is low season and most of the animals are in Tanzania at the time, I liked that there were hardly many tourists. Also I’m so glad that i chose the land cruiser rather than the van, do not save on this take the land cruiser, save on the hotel if you must but you’ll be spending more time in the vehicle than the hotel

Unforgettable experience!
Everything was very well organized, we had nothing else to think about other than enjoying safari. Especially Jack was an amazing guide, he is very well experienced and very kind. He made our experience even better. Thank you again. Chris was very good at answering my all detailed questions very quickly. And the process was very easy and quick to organize. I’m grateful. It was an unforgettable experience.

Excellent travel agency!!!!
We were very well taken care of by Cris from the time of booking the tour through whats app until our arrival in Kenya. Always very attentive and concerned with our expectations regarding the tour.
Our guide was very attentive and went the extra mile to meet our expectations!
We saw all the big five, even in the low season.
Those were incredible moments that we will not forget!
Thank you to everyone on the SUN UP team!!

Great Safary Trip to Masai Mara that we will bever forget
All was super smooth with Sunup Adventure.
Payment was upfront, and I got my booking voucher right after.
Then the day of the Safari, Chris and Paul (the driver/guide) where right there on time in my hotel.
It was a long ride to Masai Mara though (6hours) but a lot to see on the way
The camp Ashnil was really 5 stars service. I'm very impressed!
The game drive were full of excitement and fun...
Paul did all his best so we see as much as possible of Masai Mara wild life (though we did not had chance to see all big 5)
At the end it was a superb adventure that we will never forget

Couldn’t have chosen a better tour company.
My first trip to Africa, as such, wasn’t sure what to expect, having read many reviews can be confusing.
After having done an exhaustive online search for safaris in Kenya, I decided to go with Chris company “Sunup Adventures”. His follow ups right after requesting a quote gave me a sense of assurance. Making a 50% deposit to a company half way across the planet in a land you have never been to is something I rarely would do.
But I had nothing to worry, Chris and Josh arrived actually 30mins before pick up rendezvous, the van was clean and Josh my guide / driver was well dressed in a neat uniform.
I spent the following 5 days in a solo luxury safari. The hotels were great!
I was always treated like royalty.
Josh always made sure we arrived on time for the game drives, he was always very punctual to our early morning meet up times; super active on the radio and quick to move to make sure I did not miss the hard to find animals, which was very essential for me as a photographer.
Josh takes his job seriously, he made sure I had the best possible positions to take my pictures, and waited patiently until I was ready to continue.
Indeed a very pleasant person.
He brought me to a Maasai village where I got a great video documentary.
Got amazing pictures of the big five.
This trip was basically everything I expected and more.
I would without hesitation recommend Chris, Josh, Sunup Adventures.
At the same time I would like to thank them for providing me with such great service.
Great memories indeed.
Can’t wait to go back!
