The Best Family Trip We’ve Ever Had
My family had a wonderful experience with Spirit of Kenya. From the moment we arrived, everything was handled smoothly and professionally. Our guide, Thomas, was kind, knowledgeable, and always attentive to our needs. He taught us a lot about the animals, the landscape, and the local culture. Over the trip of five days, we were able to see all the animals we had hoped for. Since it wasn’t the high season, we could take our time and quietly observe the wildlife without crowds, which made the experience even more special.
Our 5 and 7 years old children had an amazing time — they were fully engaged throughout the journey. It was clear that this is a great age for kids to enjoy and appreciate a safari. Watching the sunrise together over the African plains as a family was truly unforgettable. It’s a memory we will treasure for the rest of our lives.
It was worth every penny — an experience we will never regret and always cherish. Without a doubt, this was the best family trip we’ve ever had!
Number one Safari tour operator
This was our first safari and it won’t be our last! From the moment we contacted Spirit of Kenya Victor made us feel like we were in safe hands making sure we got the right safari choice for our needs.
When we arrived in Kenya and our Guide George picked us up to start our trip we knew our needs would be met. His knowledge for the area, animals and birds were incomprehensible. We can’t thank him enough for making our trip one we will hold in our hearts forever.
When we return we will be asking for George to guide us on our next adventure

Well organised and customer-oriented
I am extremely satisfied with their planning, support and whole organisation of the 3-days safari.
Starting with a personalised quotation with all possible attention to my wishes and adjustments (in my case, Misk was my personal organiser and was incredible!), the experience was excellent with the driver (Steven, kind and experienced driver and guide), the hotel and the complete experience (Maasai village & Masai Mara, game drive and walking safari).
Definitely recommend.

Without a doubt, we will be booking with Spirit of Kenya again!
After evaluating proposals from around half a dozens of safari operators, we selected Spirit of Kenya for the final leg of our honeymoon. Rather than reiterate the firm’s many strengths, let us outline below the lessons we will apply on our next visit—each drawn from the exemplary service of two individuals: Victor (planner) and Dominic (guide).
1. Begin by consulting Victor: Sketch the preferred destinations and time budget, then let Victor refine the itinerary. Out plan clearly surpassed the alternatives we received, the main reason we have chosen Spirit of Kenya.
2. Limit the itinerary to a manageable scope: On our trip we visited three parks in six days. Following Victor’s counsel, we will resist the temptation to over-schedule; fewer stops yield more wildlife hours and lower transit fatigue.
3. Request Dominic as guide: Dominic’s crazy knowledge of species, uncanny spotting ability (he located a lion pride while driving which we failed to see even through binoculars), and respect for animal welfare made him an ideal companion. We will not have another Safari in Kenya without him!
4. Trust Dominic’s in-field adjustments: Twice he proposed minor timing changes that gave us an extra one-to-two hours inside the reserves—one of which produced the lion sighting mentioned above. We cannot stress enough my trust in his abilities.
In short, our experience with Spirit of Kenya—and particularly with Victor and Dominic—was outstanding. We look forward to engaging the same team on our next safari.
Thank you for six truly extraordinary days,
Ayca and Johannes
