Equipped full kindness and provide a skilled safari guide.
They always kindly answer to our inquiries and provided material such as travel itinery was well organized. Also our guide Simon was very skillful at safari which is very important to seek and locate a great spot to take a picture or observing animals during the safari. I enjoyed every moment in this safari and I also want to recommend other travelers to use this tour.

Awesome!
This was our second time in Mara on a trip organized by Martin. Everything was excellent from the arrival to departure. A great and total experience. the guides Frederik and Jo know the reserve like their pockets and helped us spotting leopards, lions, cheta and all other wildlife on a daily basis.
Camps and lodges were fantastic.. in short we had a great time and we hope to be back soon.

Our dream came true - it was so much better than expected
Before booking this safari, we did a lot of research and received many quotes. In the end, we chose Earth Wings Safari, and it was the best decision we could have made.
We had the perfect safari trip to the Masai Mara! The organizer, Martin, fulfilled all our wishes — even accommodating last-minute changes just a day before. We also had the best driver, Jeff, who brought us very close to the animals while always respecting their territory. Thanks to him, we captured the most amazing photos, videos, and memories.
We stayed at Zebra Mara Camp, a beautiful place where you can see hippos, zebras, giraffes, and antelopes right from the camp, and watch hot-air balloons rise in the morning sky. It was magical.
We are a couple who travels a lot and has seen many places, but Earth Wings really impressed us. They offer a touch of luxury at a fair price, making it a great choice for anyone who wants an incredible safari on a budget. We 100% recommend them!

Excellent Team
I don't even know where to start. When booking our safari, we chose Earthwings based on the many positive reviews. They fully deserve the best rating. I contacted Martin about the booking, we wanted a safari with individual needs. He fulfilled all our wishes, and whenever I had a question about the trip, he answered immediately. He didn't hesitate day or night. On the day of arrival, 2 lovely girls were waiting for us at the airport, and from there they took us safely to our hotel. The next morning, Ruben was waiting for us in the hotel courtyard to show us the wonders of Kenya for the next 7 days. We started in Amboseli, then we were in the Naivasha - Nakuru - Masai Mara parks. Ruben was our guide, willingly at our disposal in everything, fulfilled all our wishes. So we managed to see the Big Five, and the famous Great Migration. He was very kind and friendly, we were enriched with incredible experiences, which I owe primarily to him and Martin We can thank you. The accommodation choices were the best possible, we stayed in wonderful places. Anyone who wants to go on a safari can trust the Earthwings team and you will have incredible experiences. Thank you for everything Martin and Ruben, thank you for everything Earthwings. We hope to see you again.

Amazing experience with Earthwings
What an experience we had with Earthwings! Definitely recommended. We took a private tour (my wife and I).
Communication with Martin was very fast and easy via email and WhatsApp. Their quote was clear and comprehensive. We also had a call with him to discuss the quote in detail, and he was available to provide any clarification we needed. They showed flexibility in accommodating what we would like to do during the tour (since it was a private tour). The pick up from the airport was on time. The car was in great condition, and the drop-off was at our hotel in Nairobi.
Our guide, Jayjay (I hope I spelled it correctly), was amazing, super friendly, always with a smile, and ensured we had the best experience at all times. He drives very well and safely and is skilled at finding wildlife. He is also very knowledgeable and could answer all our questions on the Maasai Mara, culture, animals, environment, etc. He is from the Maasai Mara, which is really important! Many guides are from other areas, such as Nairobi, who may have less knowledge compared to someone born and raised there.
They also gave us an accommodation upgrade! Which was the cherry on the cake. They also gave us safari hats that we got to keep as souvenirs.
We came back with the best experience of our lives so far.

Amazing experience, from start to finish
With so many companies offering safari experiences, we didn't know where to start and chose Earthwings because of their consistently positive reviews. We emailed our requirements and received a very quick response with some follow up questions to ensure that our experience fully met our needs and expectations. Every question we had was answered immediately and always with helpful advice and suggestions. The accommodation exceeded our expectations and our Guide, John was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about animals and conservation which we really appreciated. We always felt completely safe during our trip, and had very little to think about as everything was carefully planned for us. The whole experience from start to finish was amazing and I would one hundred percent recommend Earthwings to anyone, without any hesitation. It was a very special experience.

Very professional, on time and going above and beyond to ensure excellent service
Very well managed tour. From the beginning Simon (my contact from Earthwings) was very responsive, answered all my questions and accomodated all my requests. They also give me the most competitive rates without compromising on any aspect of the service.
Lastly my driver and tour guide Barnabas was extremely professional..he ensured we got as many sightings as we could and he stopped wherever we wanted ensuring we got an exceptional experience.
Highly recommended

Very organized and professional
We had an outstanding safari experience in Kenya with Earthwings Tours, and I highly recommend them. The trip was perfectly organized from start to finish, with excellent planning, smooth logistics, and great accommodation choices throughout.
We visited Ol Pejeta, the Masai Mara, and Amboseli over six days, which was a fantastic experience. However, two parks over four days would also be sufficient if time or budget is limited, especially with a strong tour company. For long distances, I strongly recommend flight or train transfers to avoid extended car drives. Spending a day or two in Nairobi is also worthwhile to fully experience Kenya. People are exra friendly and helpful though be mindful of persistent street sellers. You can get most of you gifts from Airport upon departure. I found price are slightly higher but with much better shopping experience and quality. Halal food is everywhere which is a big plus if you are a Muslim.
Special thanks to Martin, who organized the entire trip with exceptional professionalism and responsiveness, making the journey completely stress-free. Our Masai Mara safari was made truly unforgettable by JJ, whose deeknowledge of wildlifege, incredible spotting skills, and passion elevated every game drive.
Thank you, Earthwings Tours, for a truly memorable and well-executed safari experience. I would gladly recommend them to anyone seeking a high-quality safari in Kenya.

Exceptional guiding, professionalism, and unforgettable safari moments
From start to finish, our experience exceeded all expectations. The entire planning and booking process was handled exceptionally well by Simon, with very prompt and clear communication, a well-structured itinerary, and smooth, transparent payment handling. Everything was delivered exactly as promised. Once on safari, Steven Babu proved to be an outstanding guide—highly professional, reliable, and extremely knowledgeable about wildlife and the local environment. His ability to spot animals, position the vehicle perfectly, and create a calm, enjoyable atmosphere made every game drive special. We always felt safe, well informed, and genuinely cared for. The combination of excellent pre-trip organization and first-class guiding resulted in a truly memorable safari experience. We would highly recommend this team to anyone looking for a high-quality and well-run safari
