The most enjoyable experience ever with no hassle or worries for far less than a crowded group tour.
5/5

I was told by local travel agents that I was crazy to book a private guided safari online, but the joke is on them lol. Spirit of Kenya was by far the best choice for my dream of a lifetime experience!

Every detail was well planned by our personal journey planner, Filipa,and executed flawlessly by our guide, Charles, took excellent care of us.

Having such a private tour allowed us to customize to our liking without worrying about others, plus we had the land cruiser to ourselves and could easily spread out.

From start to finish it was by far the best trip ever.

An unforgettable safari experience with Spirit of Kenya
5/5

Our trip with Spirit of Kenya was absolutely unforgettable. From the very beginning, the experience was smooth, professional, and full of care. Communication with Filipa was exceptional; she was always available, kind, and patient, making sure that every detail of our journey was adapted to our needs and preferences. She went above and beyond to make our trip perfect.

When the situation in Tanzania suddenly changed due to the elections and the protests that followed, we had to cancel that part of our itinerary for safety reasons. It could have been a very stressful situation, but Filipa handled everything with incredible professionalism and efficiency. In record time, she reorganized the whole trip and created a new itinerary that ended up being simply amazing. Her ability to adapt and find great solutions at the last minute turned what could have been a problem into one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had.

Our guide and driver, Sego, was equally outstanding. From the first day, he made us feel completely comfortable and safe. He knows the national parks inside and out, every corner and every track, and has an impressive knowledge of the wildlife — not only identifying every species we saw but also sharing fascinating insights about their behavior and environment. His enthusiasm, friendliness, and sense of humor made every day enjoyable.

The car was always spotless, extremely comfortable, and perfectly prepared for every safari day. Sego was very attentive to every detail, making sure we had the best view of the animals and always anticipating what we might need. He made the experience fun, relaxed, and deeply informative.

Everything exceeded our expectations. The organization, the attention to detail, and the human quality of the team were outstanding. What could have been a complicated situation became an incredible journey that we will never forget, thanks to Filipa, Sego, and the entire Spirit of Kenya team.

If you are thinking about doing a safari, do not hesitate for a second — choose Spirit of Kenya. Their professionalism, kindness, and passion for what they do make the experience simply spectacular.

Beyond your expectations
5/5

Spirit of Kenya were a magnificent tour operator. Everything was organised to perfection and nothing was too much.

Franco our guide was so knowledgable, respectful and friendly. He had great eye for sensing out the wildlife which meant we saw all of the big 5. We saw so many animals in different environments so meant our trip was perfect.

The accommodation was amazing and food provided hit the spot in all the accommodation . We stayed in lots of different types of accommodation from tent in the wild with no fencing which was an experience as light nervous sleeper, to room within fenced area and then high end at Lake Nakuru which was out of this world.

We had a private guide for the week we were in Kenya and it might cost a bit more money but it’s more every last penny. It was a trip of a life time and one that will never be forgotten.

Could not ask for more! Solo-friendly!
5/5

During pre-trip planning, Francisco was very responsive and communicative in itinerary planning, was very flexible and patient when I had last minute change of plans. He always gets back to me in no time when I had questions.
For the trip, I had the best time having Simon as the driver and tour guide. I was doing the 7 day safari solo as a female, Simon was very attentive to my needs, very knowledgeable not only in his safari knowledge but also about the country, I learned a lot about Kenya through our conversations. Most importantly, I was able to see the big five in no time! Simon is very experienced, he knows the best spots and shared tons of facts about the animals we see.
I started off a bit anxious not knowing what to expect booking a safari online, but this totally exceeds my expectations!
Highly recommend!
