Exceeded Expectations
Safari: This bucket list adventure was well worth the trip! Kenya was the place to do it and June was a lovely month. Even from our first 5 minutes into Maasai Mara, we saw a parade of elephants which was magical! Guides in the parks connect on walkie talkies and make sure they communicate on where animals are. They all support each other and were very friendly. We saw SO much wildlife - it was incredible! Having a nice camera is good, but nothing too extravagant is necessary. Phones work well for pics and videos, too!
Guide: Our guide, Richie, made the trip! He made us feel comfortable and prioritized us getting the best experience. He shared nice binoculars with us, taught us so much about Kenya, cultures and traditions, and the animals and plants. He was well-liked and regarded by other guides and helpful when cruisers got stuck in mud. We were so grateful for his knowledge, professionalism and friendship.
Vehicle: We were pleasantly surprised at how nice our cruiser was. Each night, Richie cleaned the outside and inside. There was so much space and it was perfect out on the game drives. We loved having a private tour to be able to spread out our things and move to different seats. On our long game drives, it honestly didn’t feel like we were in a vehicle for hours. It was fun to switch between standing and sitting.
Food: I wasn’t sure what to expect, but we were fed very well and the meals provided were sufficient. We didn’t see a need for snacks since we were given large and delish meals (consisting of protein like chicken and/or beef, vegetable, rice or ugali, chapati, and usually fresh fruit for dessert. Places had beer, wine, coffee, juice, and more.
Accommodations: Staff at campsites were fabulous and friendly. We appreciated the high quality service at each location. Campsites were more like ‘glamping’ and it was nice to have a real toilet and shower connected to the tent. Hotels were very nice! Happy with the options and supposed with how nice the budget option was that we selected. We were worried about bugs, but they weren’t even an issue.
Overall, I would recommend this to people who are open to immersing themselves into and love learning about other cultures. Those interested in flora and fauna will enjoy all that you will see. If you want a more personal tour, go with a group and get a private tour. We appreciated the communication from
Alex and the company throughout the booking process. The price was perfect for what it was. Thank you!

When I got connected to the agent, Collins L, he was very kind and tried his best to reply my message as soon as possible. Before the start of trip, I was so nervous and wanted to make sure everything again. Collins helped me check again and said everything was gonna be okay, which smoothed my anxiety. I really appreciated his help for organizing the whole trip and met every request that I wanted. Big thanks to him.
After I arrived at the Kenya, he came to greet me and told me again everything was okay, which was really nice.
Our guide, Dickson, is a really nice guy. He always made sure my mom and I were okay, especially my mom. Since she is a little with age, I worried she would feel tired, too and Dickson noticed that. So he always made sure my mom was okay. I really appreciated that. As for hot air balloon, he organized everything for us and worked extra time. I felt thankful for him because he knew my mom was so tired for the daytime safari, he let us to go back to the room to rest and brought the guy who was in charge to the hot air balloon to our room in order to explain the schedule for us. He is really considerate. Dickson also tried his best to find animals for us. Whenever we asked questions about animals, he answered and shared lots of information to us. 👍

Easy communication and good guides
Everything OK, guides, land cruisers and managers.
Unfortunately, last night they don't give us the Manjaro Camp booked and that's the only negative issue with them.
The rest was OK, and they find solutions when we had a trouble with car, hotel or baggage.
