Shanjoy delivered a remarkable safari experience.
5/5

Patrick and his drivers, James and Ken gave us a wonderful safari experience. Their organisation, knowledge, skill and expertise were outstanding. The accommodation was very comfortable and authentic, but it was the Shanjoy team that really made this trip something special. Every member of our group was looked after superbly, and in particular the children (5 under 10 years) found the safari very exciting and educational. The Shanjoy team were awesome. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone wanting to experience the Mara.

5/5

Shanjoy Tours are professional, personalised & caring. Patrick guided us with such passion and love for his animals. Our drivers James & Ken embraced our children & really made the entire safari experience so much fun and one that we will never forget. We loved getting to experience close encounters with these beautiful African animals. I would highly recommend Shanjoy Tours for anyone looking for a memorable Safari experience.

5/5

I was extremely impressed with our guides (ken and James) who took their time to engage with our children, they were patient and our boys had such a memorable experience. They wanted to stay in Africa and live with them!

The perfect tailor of your holidays
5/5

Shanjoy was great in communicating with us, to organize a perfect trip for the short stay we had in Kenya. Very helpful and accommodating.
The trip went great and we could stick to every plan we made!
The team is very knowledgeable on the parks and reserves - with great understanding on the flora and fauna.
Can’t wait to go back for another trip with them!

Fun and trustworthy!
5/5

Mr. Patric is an owner of the shanjoy and he made our plan by communicating on Whatsapp, his responses were always very quick and accurate to our request, so I could trust him from the beginning. We had an amazing time in Kenya thanks to him and we will surely back to do some game drives again!

5/5

We stayed 4 days in the Masai Mara and within 48 hours we did get to see all big five. We had lot's of fun, learned so much and could enjoy the safari tour in a way that there are no words to really describe this wonderful and incredible experience. Thank you so much.

Great communication and customer service, an ideal safari experience!
5/5

The team had great communication with us throughout the booking process. Once there, the team were focused on making sure we had a great experience. They went the extra mile to get us seeing all the animals possible, and the whole thing was run at a timing and tempo of our choosing. These guys seem to be a small business that are keen to grow their client base and i would have no hesitation booking a safari with them again.

Patrick was incredibly friendly, helpful & knowledgeable from the moment we first contacted him
5/5

As mentioned above, from our first email interactions with Patrick from Shanjoy Tours he couldn't have been more helpful. We explained some ideas of what we'd like to do and he came back to us with a detailed itinerary, which was perfect for what we were looking for. He also provided us with all the accommodation booking confirmations and an invitation letter in order for us to get our Kenyan visas and would always respond very promptly. When we looked into booking a train from Nairobi to Mombassa and discovered it wasn't possible for us to make a reservation without having a Kenyan mobile phone (for mPesa), Patrick very kindly booked us return tickets with his own money, which we paid back on our arrival. An example of how he went out of his way to help us even when it was outside of the time we'd booked our tour with him.

Upon meeting Patrick when he picked us up from our B&B in Nairobi he was very welcoming and really friendly. We spent five days together going to Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Hell's Gate and Amboseli. Everything went incredibly smoothly and we had an amazing time. The accommodation he'd booked was great and the safaris we did with him were so good. He was a very knowledgeable guide and we managed to see so many amazing animals. I'd definitely recommend Patrick/Shanjoy Tours based on our experience, from our initial interactions right through to the tour itself, he couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating and I feel we really got great value for money.

Friendly, professional and a lot of fun.
5/5

The communication with Patrick was always constructive and fast. The game drives were outstanding and we saw the big five within 24 hours! The drivers made sure that we could see the most interesting places and animals at Massai Mara. Furthermore, the tents where we stayed were super comfortable with our own bathroom. The food in our Camp Enkorok was delicious and made with a lot of love. The Massai people who were at our camp were so friendly and welcoming. All in all a perfect Safari for us!

Excellent service!!
5/5

I found Shanjoy Tours online when looking to organize a safari for some friends after my wedding. We were a big group (18) with people from overseas and was put in touch with Patrick. I would rate everything 10/10!! Since I was planning my wedding I did not have a lot of time, Patrick organized everyone and everything excellently. When it came time for the trip, it could not have gone more smoothly. Flights, hotels, game drives, knowledge of the park and animals everything was fantastic. We had a great time and the Shanjoy team took care of everything always with a smile on their face. Would highly recommend Shanjoy and in particular Patrick, he is the best! Asante sana we had the most memorable trip!!
