Pure gold
Evans. This is what made the difference between all the tours we saw, as all the experiences other clients told us. Evans was simply one of the best guides I ever had, and trust me, because I work as a guide in Finland during winter. His knowledge, his patience, how helpful he was all the time, communication with other guides in order to find animals, and the best thing: biggest heart ever. He is that kind of person you know is just as good human being as he can. Lenchada safaris was really helpful in all the organization too. Alex helped us a lot before, during the tour and after it. We were late the first day due to airline problems and they waited us till we arrived. Every information we needed they provided to us, so our experience was a 10/10 in general, way more than we expected for what we paid. If you have the chance to visit Kenia, and you can do it with Evans, do not hesitate! It was one of the best experiences in my life!!

It was incredable experience to spend a few days in Masai Mara, to meet all top 5 (and other) animals right in front of me. Special thanx for the guide Francis, who made the trip even more than excellent.
I realy liked Lanchada camp that is just 5 minutes to the park gates and polite people who worked there and prepared a delicious food.

The most amazing experience with an amazing guide - Wilson!
From the moment Wilson collected us on our first morning, he took the best care of us.
He made sure we knew the plan of the day and that we were happy with what he had planned for us. As a group of two young women travelling together, we felt so safe with Wilson as our guide. In the truck, Wilson had water in a cooler and cleaned the truck daily to make sure we were completely comfortable.
After meeting Wilson in Nairobi, we travelled to the Masai Mara and spent 2 nights there. Wilson made sure everything was perfect for us. On our first drive, we saw 3 of the big 5 up very close and Wilson made sure he got us the perfect angle for photographs. On our second morning we did the additional hot air balloon activity. After the balloon, Wilson was the only operator to come and meet us in the Mara instead of back at the lodge because he wanted to make sure we got the best experience and didn’t miss time. Because of his dedication, we got to see a lion enjoying a zebra under a tree! Again, Wilson made sure to get us the best angles for photographs. On this drive we got to see leopards and cheetahs too.
On our third day we set off for Lake Nakuru where Wilson completed our experience by getting us next to a black rhino! He made sure we got the big 5 and everything else in too. We finished our trip in Amboseli where we got the most amazing photos of elephants with Kilimanjaro in the background.
He gave his complete attention to us for the full 5 days of our safari. He made us laugh along the way and shared with us his extensive knowledge of the animals, birds, plantations and people of each destination.
In the truck, Wilson had water in a cooler and cleaned the truck daily to make sure we were completely comfortable. He went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t have wished for a better guide to share this experience with. We will be recommending Lenchada tours to our friends as all of the accommodation, food and drives were great! But we will make sure when they come, they request a trip with Wilson because there is no one better to make this experience absolutely perfect. We had an incredible trip. Thank you Wilson from your new Irish friends, Rachel and Hannah!

Excellent Safari Tour
We had a great time in Masai Mara with Lenchada Tours. We were picked up the first day and the tour operator handled all the details. All the communication was done with Whatsapp, which was very convenient. We stayed at the Sankale lodge, which was near the park entrance. Our driver Raymond made sure to bring us into the tour early in the morning and went out of his way to make sure we could see all of the animals we wanted. I definitely recommend Lenchada to anyone interested in the real Masai Mara experience.

Very recommended!
I’ve booked the 4d safari package for 2 adults and 3 kids. After my first Safari in Serengeti/ Ngorongoro I never expected this one to be even anywhere close. Thought it could be too rough for the kids. But I was proof wrong. We all loved it! The value that we got was more than I ever expected. Our guide Moses was very kind and helpful in any matter. Also the whole booking process with Alex, which was always very responsive was straightforward.
For us the 4d was just enought.

Incredible tour with Evans!
The tour was faultless. Alex was very helpful with booking and was happy to shift itinerary to accommodate us.
Evans was a fantastic guide. An amazing, friendly person and very knowledgeable about the wildlife.
Would recommend Lenchada to anyone!

Excellent in every respect.
Everything went very smoothly. Moses was our driver and guide and really looked after us ensuring that we saw all the animals we hoped to see. Thank you Moses.
The Enkorok camp was also very good and Faith looked after us there and was a joy to meet.

Amazing experience!
Thanks to Lenchada Tours and especially our guides, we had one of the greatest experiences in our life!
We booked the 6 day budget tour (Masai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli) and everything was perfect from start to the end.
We spent the first 4 days with our guide Moses and then 2 days in Amboseli with Francis. Both knew everything about the parks/animals and showed us things, we were hoping for before we started the trip. They went above and beyond to give the group an incredible experience.
Thanks for this amazing trip!

Fantastic experience, thoroughly enjoyed
Everything about the Lenchada tour was first class.
Communications with Alex at the Lenchada office were very smooth, he answered all my questions in no time, providing detailed information and in an very friendly manner.
The safari itself was very well organised. Everything was planned down to the hour - Evans was our tour guide and he was the best tour guide I’ve had anywhere.
Evans’ knowledge of all of the wildlife in Kenya is faultless. His years/decade of experience really comes across - he answered every question, and has a seriously impressive wealth of knowledge about the thousands of species of birds that the various national parks are home to.
Given that we had no problems at all with the tour, and saw all of the wildlife we could have hoped for, including all of the big cats and a black rhino on the final day, I would recommend the tour with Lenchada to anyone.
