Very helpful and patient in organizing, great execution with kind and knowledgeable tour guides
5/5

We had an amazing experience with Spirit of Kenya. As we wanted to combine hiking Mt Kenya and doing Safari, Vanessa was very helpful at organizing the whole trip. We first did the hike to Peak Lenana (Sirimon up, Chogoria down) with a very good team around Wilson who were very kind and caring. We got picked up in Chogoria and directly went on a Safari at Lake Nakuru. The next days we continued the trip to Masai Mara and Amboseli. As we flew from Masai Mara to Amboseli we had 2 tour-guides. Michael and Erastas were both very kind and knowledgeable, always checkin in with us about our needs. Thank you very much!

An amazing experience
5/5

We embarked on the 5-day Roaring Kenya Safari, and I must say it was a flawless experience from start to finish.

Jorge was incredibly helpful during the booking process, and I can't express enough gratitude for his patience and flexibility. His professional assistance made the booking a smooth and stress-free endeavor.

Our journey began with a warm welcome at Nairobi Airport, where we met Dennis, our guide and driver for the entire trip. Right from the outset, he was dedicated to making us feel comfortable and at home. We were provided with water and given a brief overview of the itinerary before we set out to explore Kenya's remarkable wildlife in Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, and Masai Mara.

Every time we entered a national park, Dennis exhibited an exceptional ability to spot rare and elusive creatures. Remarkably, we were able to check off the Big Four on our very first day, and we completed the Big Five as soon as we reached Masai Mara. Dennis always knew the best vantage points for wildlife observation. In addition to our wildlife encounters, Dennis enriched our journey with his extensive knowledge about the region's fauna, flora, and Kenyan culture.

Spirit of Kenya designed the perfect program for us. With our driver-guide always attentive and focused, the overall experience was worth every penny and truly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Our stay in Kenya and the Safari trip were made unforgettable, all thanks to them. We would unquestionably return for another adventure.

Complete, all what we expected.
5/5

We enjoyed very much our Safari and our stay in Kenya. Julius was a very kind and friendly guide, always seeking for our comfort not only in his guide duties but beyond (took us to buy cloth because I left my pants home, waited patiently for us when we overslept). He is a very knowledgeable man regarding animals and plants from the areas we visited, he could always give a proper response to our questions.

Regarding the accommodations, they were all very nice and beautiful, each one in a different manner. Amboseli gave us a more comfortable and luxurious space meawhile Olengoti was a more real, wild experience with the hippos and the Masais guarding us during every step. On the other hand, Ziwa was also really nice, maybe a little bit outdated but still very nice on its own cozy way.

Spirit of Kenya was always reliable and organized during our entire safari.
5/5

My mom and I had a phenomenal 9-day safari! It was our first time visiting the African continent and Kenya was a great way to start.

Filipa our journey designer helped us the entire time and answered the many questions we had. She provided a very detailed itinerary for each location (Tsavo West, Amboselli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara) with price breakdowns and drive times.

Once we arrived in Nairobi, everything was taken care of by Ras, our guide, who was amazing! He was on time, made us feel safe the entire journey and took some amazing pictures. Ras would explain every location we were visiting and of the animals (which were many). We were lucky enough to see the Big 5 and much more! At Maasai Mara we even visited a very friendly Maasai village!

We still have a lot to see in Kenya, but that gives an excuse to come back! We will definitely be booking with Spirit of Kenya in the future.

Perfection
5/5

the whole trip was spectacular, organized by Spirit Of Kenya to perfection The proposed itinerary proved to be excellent and complete; all 3 resorts (Great rift valley golf lodge, Flamingo Hill Tent, Maisha Mara Camp) were very hospitable, with good food and great staff, as well as being very nice and comfortable. Honorable mention for the guide Samuel, he made us feel at home in a short time, very nice, very prepared to answer all our questions and, most importantly, he showed us all the animals perfectly. Furthermore, communications with the Tour Operator were also precise and fast. Overall rating 10/10

Spirit of Kenya far exceeded our expectations!!
5/5

Our decision to go with Spirit of Kenya far exceeded our expectations. We felt very comfortable after our first few planning meetings with our Personal Journey Designer's (Filipa). We received first class communications during the planning stages of our adventure. We went with an 11-day safari in Kenya & Tanzania, and it was nothing short of amazing. Our guides (Michael, Solum and Johnston) were kind, knowledgeable and an overall joy to spend time with. We learned so much about the countries, animals and history of the various parks. Each of the bush camps/lodges we stayed were beautiful, clean and the staff made you feel like family. We did not have one disappointing meal the entire time!! Cheers to Spirit of Kenya! Keep of the good work and we will see you again in a few years.

5/5

Thank you Andre, our journey designer, who promptly answered all my questions, with hundreds of emails. Ken, our safari guide and Alex, our city guide, both are professional and knowledgeable about the wildlife.
Shoutout to Ken, who tried his very best to look for animals and finding a good spot to take good pictures. Thru his professionalism, we managed to see The Big Five & great migration. We had alot of fun and this is one of my best memories ever.

Exceptional Safari
5/5

The safari that my wife and I went on for nine days was exceptional. The accommodation was excellent, and I am happy to thank our fantastic guide, Charles, who made the trip. His knowledge of wildlife is extraordinary; he was informative, patient, intuitive, caring, and an excellent driver. From start to finish, the organisation was first-class and exceeded our expectations.
