Quick communications, professional, and able to handle issues/last minute changes
5/5

Our experience with Lilian was very positive. She was excellent in communications, from providing a quotation to our specific itinerary and requests, and during the trip as well. More importantly, she handled issues during the trip when things went wrong (as we experienced horrible issues with a third party company that she had to hire because we wanted an open jeep, or when Adventures Aloft overbooked our original hot air balloon date and we had to change dates at the last minute). She also handled well any late changes (such as when we decided to book a flight to the Mara from Nairobi one day before). This is a sign of a good agent as people can experience difficulties with companies in the tourism industry in Kenya (from our experience and also what we saw/was told by other tourists during the trip), so it is good to know she is reachable at any time. There was some slight miscommunication during one point with the itinerary/place we assumed we would go, so it is best to confirm beforehand the exact details and places you will travel to (do your research on where you want to go, to see what you want to see as I believe the normal packages in the industry is quite a rushed itinerary). Overall, I recommend Lilian, as you will be in good hands.

Our itinerary was a 6 day safari visiting Ol Pejeta and the Masai Mara (Lemek Conservancy and the game reserve), including hot air ballooning and flights to and from the Mara (both highly recommended).

Excellent service during our first ever trip to Kenya Safari
5/5

Words are of short to describe the continuous support during planning phase of our first ever trip to the African country, Kenya. Effective support and daily follow-ups by Lilian helped to put us at ease and ensured all minute details were taken care of.
As our younger child’s birthday coincided with the trip, we had requested for a surprise event for the kid and it was a grand one indeed, thanks to Lilian and Fig Tree staffs.
The Safari was a great experience to see the big 5 in their wilderness and the hotels were awesome, With the wildlife that could be seen very close.

Prompt and efficient
5/5

Lilian communicated throughout the planning process and went out of her way to get us accommodation with a short notice. The first part of the tour wasn't as good but that is not because of Lilian, it was the Mara base camp's failure to communicate well. Otherwise, the trip was good and I would highly recommend Lilian.

EXCELLENT TOUR AND TRAVEL / THE BEST / INCREDIBLE
5/5

I would easily rate EXCELLENT to Lians Travel as they perfectly organised my Tour pretty well. I did a 4D & 3N at Kenya. Everything was pre- organised and briefed to us. Like what to carry what to wear etc . We were picked up from airport NBO and as per ittenary and Lian herself came to airport to receive us . We got our Ride with driver Mr Peter . Amazing guy with 15 years experiences on safaris. We started our journey ( AMBOSELI - NAIVASHA - MASAIMARA) . We had 5 game drives all together and perfect stay at all the places . I strongly recommend Lian's Travel.
If anyone wish to know more about our customized Ittenary please mail me or call me .

I am extremely glad that i chose to book my itinerary with Lians Travel. They are the most competitive in terms of price and service. My tour to Masai Mara was well customized as per my requirement. I am pleased with the expertise tendered by Ms. Lilian and her team in conducting my successful trip. Ms. Lilian has personally monitored my trip and kept in touch throughout my journey. Their effort to ensure my comfort and safety is highly appreciated.

Selection of tent, ambiance, food and game ride timings were up to expectation and I will be glad to recommend Lians Travel to family and friends.

We wanted to plan a family safari and contacted a few companies... Lillian from Lians travel was the first to reply. All my queries were replied to asap and she made us an itinerary that suited our requirements perfectly! Our tour guide Humphrey was also great! He was always on time and very knowledgeable! Would definitely recommend lians travel!

Kenya safari: An amazing holiday
5/5

I have just returned from a 10 night safari in Kenya and what a time I had! The holiday was meticulously organised by Lilian , Lians Travel; I knew I was in good hands from the first moment I corresponded with her. After a couple of emails I rang Lilian so she could get a really good idea of what I really wanted (within reason!) on my holiday in Africa, and also what I wasn't so keen on (single supplements, six Land Cruisers around one lion...). As I made my enquiry quite late in the year I was probably not in a good position to get a perfect fit, however the resulting 9 nights in the Kenya ,Amboseli,Samburu,Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara more than met my expectations.

Everything went like clockwork with transfers and for the majority of my trip I felt like the queen, having a safari to our group to the kenya Parks , I never had to worry about any aspect of our trip.

The Kenya Safari itself was incredible, and the Camp are special places. I enjoyed the most beautiful views, fantastic food, great hosting and exceptional guiding. I had so many memorable wildlife experiences. Here are my top 6: Lion Pride Seeing wild dogs for the very first time; seeing a leopard on a walking safari; elephants making a huge hullabaloo eating their breakfast right next to my tent; seeing a leopard slink right up to the car and give it a good sniff on a night drive; a couple of elephants sauntering by the dinner table as we guests were sitting by the fire enjoying aperitifs... magic!

I recommend Liant Travel unreservedly and I plan to book more safaris from them in the future.
