Amazing experience
We had an amazing experience in Masai Mara. The organization was perfect with the help of Emmah and all the drivers. She chose the perfect hotel for us at a good price and helped us customize the whole experience. We saw plenty of different animals and the experience was entertaining during the whole time even for most of us as adults.

Amazing experience! Totally worth it!
We were a big group of 15 people of different ages and did a 4 day tour. Emmah from Hyrax organised everything perfectly, chose the perfect place for us to stay at a very good price. Our drivers were amazing(we had 3, mine was called Sami), told us interesting things about the animals and had incredible eyesight, which helped seeing a lot of animals. In the beginning we were afraid we might not be lucky enough to spot a lion (for I don't know what reason) but after 2 hours in the savannah we had already spotted plenty of them and by the third day we started even to get tired of seeing them :). The most amazing thing was seeing a leopard eating an antelope on top of a tree, we could hear its bones cracking... If you are wondering whether to choose Hyrax, definitely book straight ahead!

Exceptional Organization and Seamless Experience with Hyrax Safaris
I would like to sincerely thank our tour agent, Emmah, for the excellent organization throughout the trip. Everything was arranged smoothly, professionally, and with great attention to detail. Special appreciation as well to the drivers, who were punctual, reliable, and ensured our comfort and safety at all times. A truly well-coordinated team effort.

Great service and guides
Very pleased having used these guys for our trip up Mt Kenya (Lenana). There were 4 of us and Daniel the head guide, Moses his assistant and the porters and cooks looked after us very well.
Everything was included from pick up to drop off back in Nairobi. Guides knowelegable and flexible, food good and we had an incredible experience.
Special thanks to Daniel

Highly organised operator with fantastic guides!
I completed the 5 day Mount Kenya trek. My guide Alex was very experienced, knew the mountain well and was caring and friendly. I felt well looked after by him and his team. The food provided was amazing and the service was first class. Alex taught me lots of facts of the way and shared his knowledge and passion. He kept me safe, always prioritising my health and wellbeing. He went above and beyond, taking me to see extra sights such as lovely waterfalls. I couldn't have asked for more from him and his team. Emmah in the office was also incredible, always replying quickly and making me feel at ease for the trip. She organised everything and the transfers to and from the hotel were smooth. She even accomodated my late arrival due to my flight cancellation. I'd recommend Hyrax safaris for anyone looking to do Mount Kenya!

The tour operator was very available and responsive to our requests.
We booked a safari with Hyrax Safari starting in Nairobi, then visiting Amboseli and Taita Hills, and ending in Mombasa. We were able to personalize our trip exactly as we wanted because they were very flexible. We had a wonderful guide, Peter, who was extremely helpful, very knowledgeable, and patient with us. It was truly a five-star experience, and we highly recommend booking with them to anyone who wants to go on a safari.

Great trip with Hyrax Safari
My climb of Mount Kenya with Hyrax Safaris went very well.
Communication before the trip was smooth and everything worked as agreed. Our guide Kelvn managed the schedule carefully and made sure we acclimatized properly. We reached Point Lenana at sunrise as planned.
The arrangements, food, and logistics worked throughout the trek. I felt safe and well supported, and the trip matched what was promised. I would recommend Hyrax Safaris for a Mount Kenya climb.

Our Kenyan safari was absolutely amazing thanks to Hyrax Safaris!
My husband and I enjoyed our first-ever African safari recently and had an incredible time. Hyrax Safaris planned such a perfect itinerary and we were able to see a variety of interesting places throughout Kenya. Our tour guide Sammy was fantastic, and on the game drives he expertly explained a lot about the various animals we were seeing. We loved seeing elephants crossing a river, a pride of lions resting in the shade, very rare white and black rhinos walking across a field, hippos floating in a river, giraffes grazing in tall trees, zebras crossing our path and much, much more! We not only saw animals from the safari vehicle, we also took a boat ride, biked and hiked at Hell’s Gate national park and saw where both “Out of Africa” and parts of the “Lion King” were filmed. The tour included opportunities for shopping from local craftspeople and we really enjoyed getting unique souvenirs to take home. Since the items do not have prices, we learned that the locals expected us to negotiate which was difficult at first because we were not used to shopping this way in the US. However, by the end of our stay we were more comfortable with the process.
The amount of things we saw and did was just incredible and we were so impressed with both our guide Sammy and Hyrax Safaris for planning such an enriching tour. We hope to return someday and if we do, we will definitely call Hyrax Safaris to plan our next adventure!
