Perfect 9 day Safari from Masai Mara to Thabo West
First and foremost, I would like to thank Filipa for the excellent organization of the entire safari. Our safari was postponed by a year due to family circumstances; after we provided the necessary medical documentation, they rescheduled it to this year without any issues.
After arriving at Nairobi Airport, we were promptly picked up by a taxi arranged through Spirit of Kenya. Our guide for the nine-day safari picked us up right on time at our hotel at the start of the trip. Our guide, Kamau, drove us safely from park to park. He took the time to look for wildlife and provided us with information and the opportunity to take close-up photos whenever possible.
We were lucky enough to spot the Big Five. For us, the Masai Mara ranks number one due to its diversity. Lake Nakuru was a wonderful place to complete our Big Five sightings by spotting the rhinoceros. During our visit, we hiked through Hell's Gate—an experience well worth it, especially for fans of *The Lion King*. In Amboseli, we were fortunate enough to spot a cheetah on the hunt, alongside countless elephants and views of Mount Kilimanjaro.
All the accommodations were excellent—the food, the comfort, and the staff. Everything was perfectly organized down to the last detail. We would certainly choose Spirit of Kenya again.

perfect safari experience
The support and organisation were fantastic. All our questions were always answered, Laura was always there to help us, and the trip went exactly as we’d imagined.
The choice of hotels was also good; the food was excellent at all the accommodation, and the staff were very friendly.
What really stood out, however, was the Zebra Plain, which was truly outstanding accommodation where no detail was overlooked. And the people there were even more welcoming than at the other camps.
Finally, a few words about Bonnie, our guide. He made our trip something truly special. He was always friendly, courteous and always had a smile on his face. His warm and caring nature made the Spirit of Kenya experience perfect.
He loves what he does; he loves working for Spirit of Kenya, and as a guest, you notice that from the very first moment. If only there were more guides like Bonnie: the national parks would be an even better place, because he always treated nature with respect. And he always shared his seemingly endless knowledge with us. Simply perfect.
We can wholeheartedly recommend Spirit of Kenya, especially Laura and Bonnie.

Breathtaking safari experience with Spirit of Kenya
A huge thank you to Vanessa for her incredible patience, detailed answers, and smooth handling of our booking via PayPal. Everything was organized to perfection from start to finish!
Our guide Ken was outstanding—respectful, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. He drove us safely, respected nature, and thanks to his sharp eyes, we managed to spot 4 of the Big Five!
Traveling in a private 4x4 Land Cruiser made a world of difference for comfort. The Maasai Mara was absolutely mind-blowing, and I strongly advise booking as much time there as possible. Staying at Tulia Amboseli Camp in the Mountainview Superb Tent was also a magical experience with incredible views.
We highly recommend Spirit of Kenya to anyone looking for a seamless, top-quality safari!

Outstanding Safari Experience with Spirit of Kenya
My safari with Spirit of Kenya exceeded all expectations and was truly one of the most memorable travel experiences I have ever had.
From the moment I arrived in Kenya, everything was perfectly organized. Airport transfers, accommodation, and the entire itinerary were handled professionally and seamlessly. A special thank you to Vanessa, who was always responsive, helpful, and attentive throughout the planning process, making everything completely stress-free.
The highlight of the trip was undoubtedly my guide, Joseph Peter. His knowledge of wildlife, nature, and local culture was exceptional, and his passion for his work was evident every day. He always went above and beyond to make sure I had the best possible experience.
The safari lasted four days, which was the perfect amount of time to explore Kenya's incredible wildlife and landscapes. The park admission fees were reasonable and represented excellent value considering the quality of the experience. The atmosphere throughout the journey was simply amazing, with breathtaking scenery and unforgettable wildlife encounters.
Some areas were a little crowded at times, but Joseph knew exactly how to avoid the busiest spots and find quieter locations where we could enjoy the animals without the crowds. His experience and local knowledge made a huge difference.
I highly recommend Spirit of Kenya to anyone looking for a well-organized, authentic, and unforgettable safari experience. Thank you to Vanessa, Joseph Peter, and the entire Spirit of Kenya team for an incredible adventure that I will always remember.
