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!

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!

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.

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

Earthwings is as good as it gets.... trip of a lifetime absolutely guaranteed!!
5/5

From the early planning stages, to the days after our seven-day safari where Martin accompanied me to a non-profit assisting women and girls in need to whom we wanted to donate.......everything was arranged with care, tailored to our needs and beyond amazing. Communication was excellent from to get go. We embarked on our adventure with our 14 year old son. Although we had fantasized about what we would do and see during our Safari to Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru, the actual experience exceeded every expectation we could have had. Martin is a most pleasant gentleman to spend a week in a Landcruiser with; we feel extremely lucky to have had him as our guide. He is humble, upbeat, very knowledgeable about all we saw, patient to answer all our questions, observes needs and wants of the different family members (important with a 14 year old) and adjusts plans accordingly. He knows the parks extremely well and through his connection with other Safari guides, always got us to where the action was. We saw more animals than we could ever imagine, everything we really hoped to see and much, much more. Our camps and lodges were amazing and the setting was beautiful. We felt welcome and happily returned to our camps and lodges when tired after the game drives. This was by far the best trip of our life, and we have travelled quite a bit. For this we owe Martin and Earthwings a humongous "Thank you."

A 10-Day Safari to Remember!
5/5

I arranged our safari directly with Martin, as it was important to me that we supported a local individual in Kenya rather than a giant corporate holiday firm.

Martin was incredible from the very initial enquiry and throughout our tour. He was great at communicating and helped me to create a bespoke 10-day tour visiting multiple places including Samburu National Reserve, Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Lake Nakuru National Park, Masai Mara National Reserve, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli National Park. He allowed me to ask a billion questions about the activities we could include (boat ride, walking safari, chimpanzee sanctuary, feeding Baraka the Black Rhino at a Rhino sanctuary and a masai village visit), change the accommodation to ones I’d picked personally and managed to help me keep a balloon ride and champagne breakfast in the Masai Mara a secret from my other half.

Martin’s knowledge of the animals is brilliant, and he happily answered all my questions about the animals, parks, local culture and country. We had Martin and the Land Cruiser to ourselves the entire time and Martin made sure we had plenty of time gazing at the animals we enjoyed most, never rushing us on to go elsewhere. We had a great giggle with Martin the entire time.

Martin works incredibly hard, he is very passionate about what he does, and this is very clear in his approach to work.

My advice to Brits – don’t feel you need to get a package deal, book your flights direct, get a hotel near the airport with a shuttle service and Martin will be there, ready and waiting to pick you up the following morning.

To Martin – thank you again for the most incredible holiday we’ve ever had.

Successful Safari Experience !!
5/5

When visiting a country you haven't been before, it can be difficult to know who you can trust and who will deliver the best safari experience.

For us Earthwings Tours (Martin) ticked both boxes. From Day 1 of planning, we spoke to Martin over Whatsapp and it felt so easy to plan the trip with him. We had three different trips booked with him, and in all three occasions, there was no room for any disappointment.

We saw the Big 5 animals on our first day! It's not common for this to happen but Martin's determination to search for them made us confident, that our trip is in the right hands. He was also full of knowledge and very friendly.

We wanted to also see baby lions and guess what, that happened too! The whole safari experience was a complete success. I would not hesitate to recommend him.
