Well arranged and organized
I booked the 4 days and 3 nights safari (masai mara & lake nakuru) but I decided to extended one more night since everything was perfect so I did the Hell’s Gate Experience as well. Nothing much trouble, our Tour Guide Solomon had a big contribution for this wonderful experience due to his professionalism and knowledge. Will definitely recommmend.

Awesome Safari
The people were amazing here. I emailed a lot of folks from Safari bookings website. Among all, Alex from Lenchada Safaris is super responsive and responds very quickly. So I decided to go with them.
Day1: On the day of safari, i got picked up from the airport at 6am to get dropped off to their office. Alex was responsive even at 5.30am in the morning.
Around 8am, when all showed up, we started the Safari. Our driver is Jack Kulet and I have no words for how amazing he is. It's a long drive to Masai Mara park. We stopped at Great Rift Valley for a good view. Then We went to the Lenchada camps, which is where I stayed for 2 nights while doing Safari at Masai Mara. It's not your everyday campsite, rather a high end glamping with restrooms inside. After that we did evening game drive and saw a wide variety of animals in just 3hours. We got back and had dinner.
Day2: It's a full day game drive. We started at 6.30 am in the morning till 4.30pm in the evening. We spotted a wide variety of animals including cheetah, lions, buffaloes, topi, hyenas, pumbas, wildebeest, elephants, gazelles, impalasam, hartebeest, zebras, giraffes, crown crane, hippo, secretary birds, meerkats, elands...... throughout the day. For the lunch we stopped near the Mara river, where the rangers gave a short tour of hippos and crocodiles.
Day3: We started the early morning game deive at 6.30 and went on till 10ish am. We continued to see a lot of wild animals. Throughout this Jack was terrific in showing us the animals and telling us what they are. Later we left the park Around the lunch time i got transferred to a different jeep for my Lake Nakuru trip and my new guide is Moises. The day ended with me relaxing at a budget hotel near Lake Nakuru
Day4: Moises was amazing as well. We started the Safari at 7am after breakfast. We went to Lake Nakuru and saw lions, rhinos, zebras, giraffes, pumba, baboons, buffaloes,... and also lot of birds. He was another excellent driver. This park is not as big as Maasai Mara but you get to see birds, lot of baboons and rhino of Big5. After the safari ended, we stopped by for lunch before getting dropped off at my hotel in Nairobi.
I highly recommend going with Lenchada safaris directly and not through third party ripoff agents like Viator or Tripadvisor.

It was a great experience, the lodge and the Safari were great.
I definitely recommend this safari.
Albert was a great guide who did everything so that we could spot animals most of the time and he took the time to explain relevant information on the animals and the reserve.
Keekorok Lodge is a great experience. The rooms are clean and the staff always try to make you feel comfortable. Staff was great, really friendly all the time. You can also see monkeys at the lodge. The bar is located in a pond where you can see hypos and most of the time there are buffalos.
The safari was great. Even though I wasn’t there during great migration, I could see most of the animals. It is good to do a private safari since you can tell what you are willing to see and they will try to make it happen.

Kikitu has been the best driver we could have. He’s fun, professional and a good companion.
The experience with Lenchada Safari has been really good. Good value for money for accommodation, food and transportation. The best thing was our driver Kikitu, thanks to him we saw The Big Five. Due to the rain, the dirty roads were not very passable, but he managed to get around with the car without any mishap, seeing the animals up close, but always doing responsible tourism and with great respect for animals.

Perfect game drives
We never had been on safari in Africa. So we have no to compare. But for our feelings this was excellent safari. We visited 3 national parks as it was described in program of our tour - Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli. In Masai ara we also visited Mara river. And we have seen hyppos and crocodiles in water. Operator arranged accomodation in 3 different places - tented camp, european style hotel and african lodge. Also we had short trip on Naivasha lake for addtional payment. We have seen many different animals - lions, zebras, antelope, buffalos, rhynos and many others. We have seen whole Africa Big Five! Especially we liked amazing hyppos eating grass before our eyes. So again it was excellent safari.

Unforgettable Safari
The adventure safari was incredible! Seeing wild animals from a close distance and enjoy the scenery of the real nature. Lenchada team members are very communicative and fast response. Jimmy 'Jeep driver' is so friendly, very helpful and always on time. He can catch many good spots where the animals hiding and his eyesight is truly amazing. Just contact Lenchada directly to get a good deal price!
