Incredible animal experience, super guide, very professional, great price for solo custom tour
5/5

One of the best trips I have ever been on! As a solo female I felt safe all the time. Martin was reliable and created a custom tour for me that was perfect! He helped me to see so many big cats, the big five and the ugly five. He shared so much about Kenya and its culture and he even helped me organise the last part of my trip in Nairobi. Couldn’t recommend him enough!! Very reasonably priced too. Had an amazing trip

Excellent company
5/5


Beautiful family trip. 5 people including 3 children aged 6, 10 and 15 years. Excellent reception. We visited Samburu and Masai Mara parks and Ol Pejeta reserve. Every day we saw beautiful animals, while nursing puppies, playing, hunting, including the big five, and, in Samburu, the special five. Our guide, Henry, very knowledgeable, was friendly and also fun. Always professional. Everithing was well organised, starting from the pick up at the airport and throughout the duration of the trip, well organized in detail and always comfortable. Accomodations and meals were beyond our expectations.

Perfect!!
5/5

We had an excellent experience traveling for our first Safari in Kenya with Earthwings Tours.

Their professionalism and excellent service were just great!

We highly appreciated their flexibility in adapting the safari according to our needs proposing us the best itinerary as we were traveling with kids. The choice of the lodges was perfect too !

We were lucky to have a super guide, John has more than 25 years of experience and we have been always in the best spots.

Thanks for all!

Henry and Martin were very resourceful and considerate
5/5

The safari tour was perfectly organised and each step was a pleasure. Our guide Henry was extremely helpful and shared with us great stories about local life and customs. He was reliable and accommodating. Except for tips and some extra activities, everything was included in the tour package. We stopped at a variety of places, from camps to lodges to a resort, and all had great service. What an adventure! Highly recommended!

Wonderful
5/5

We had the most incredible time on our honeymoon with Martin making sure we were looked after so well the entire time. We managed to see all the animals that we wanted. My favourite were the elephants and ‘pumbas’! All the accommodation was amazing and better than any photos could show! I enjoyed the driving between parks too as we got to see some of the Kenyan culture and ways of life along the way!

Great
5/5

Martin was always quick to respond and although there are so many companies to choose from we are so thankful we chose Earthwings..! What an experience we will never forget.! Martin and Johnson (who was our tour for our adventure) picked us up from a friends house in Nairobi in the 4x4 and although we originally chose the minivan we are SO glad we spent a little more and had the massive Jeep..! The journey was 5 plus hours with food/drink/toilet stops on the way - just make sure you bargain at the shops if you want to buy anything - one rule we forgot at the first shop..!

The jeep was so spacious and just what we needed for the days adventures on safari..! Johnson was such a friendly, knowledgeable guy who was happy to do what we liked and took us to all these amazing areas of the Mara..! We were so lucky to not only see leopard with prey in a tree, cheetahs and a cub, but also lions eating a hippo with lots of hyaenas around! So grateful to him..! We had 2 kids aged 13 and 8 and they enjoyed every moment..! Thanks for the best Safari I’ve ever been on..!

One quick thought - REMEMBER to take your passports! We didn’t get told but thankfully our friends could take photos and WhatsApp them to us..! The entry to the Masai Mara and the camp we stayed at, needed them..! The camp that Earthwings used, Ashnil Mara camp was AMAZING..! Great staff, great pool for afternoon dips in between the safari..! Thanks Martin and Johnson..!

Best Safari and More Than We Could Ever Hope For
5/5

Earthwings made our first safari a truly memorable experience. The entire experience was a smooth and seamless process from the booking all the way through our final game drive. Martin was incredibly personable when we reached out to him to learn about the different itinerary options. He helped us select one that met both our exploration needs and our budget. Martin assisted us with hotel recommendations for our extra days outside of the safari, and he was there waiting for us when we stepped off the plane.

If we thought Martin was amazing, we were absolutely blown away by our guide Frederick. You could tell instantly that animals were Frederick’s passion and that his role as guide was more than just a job. He was incredibly knowledgeable when identifying animals and knowing where they might be hiding within our different destinations. Frederick identified patterns in the animals posture and behavior to help us predict the best location to get a photo. Because of him we have hundreds of stunning photos to remember this experience by.

Frederick checked in with us each day to determine if we needed more rest, if there were any animals that we did not get to see that were on our list, and to see if our accommodations and meals were exceeding our expectations. He would not rest until he helped us see every animal, including all of the special 5 and all of the cats. By the end of the trip we felt like we had gained a new friend. I would highly recommend Earthwings to anyone looking to book a safari experience.
