Excellent Service ! Best tour operator in town!
African Adventure Specialists Safari tour has been excellent. From the time we were picked up to the entire Safari tour, experience has been seamless. Andrew and team provided a great service , the communication is excellent we managed to see big five in three days due to the guides perseverance :-) The range of accommodation provided on the tour was top notch as well. Highly recommend them!

EXEMPLARY SERVICE
We had our reservations over travelling out of the USA amidst the pandemic. However, the thought of missing out on the Mara Migration outweighed our fears. On recommendation, we settled on AAS as our itinerary planners. From landing at The JKIA to spending the night in Nairobi and later travelling down to Maasai Mara via Narok, the trip was well planned and executed. I would highly recommend AAS.

Great staff, amazing sights
I enjoyed the trip to Masai Mara and time we spent in Nairobi. Our drivers were friendly and helpful, and became more than just drivers but spent time with us as we explored the city and the nightlife. They were flexible in their schedules to accommodate our plans, and spent large parts of the day with us.
The safari time was amazing, the guide was very knowledgeable, and we had a great time. The accommodations were actually nicer than I anticipated, which was a little disappointing. It may sound strange, but I was hoping for a more authentic experience vs. staying in a very nice resort that only caters to rich tourists. The trip to the Masai village was good, but it felt a little like the whole town was set up to cater to tourists vs. just the way that regular people lived. I suppose there is no way to avoid that since we were foreigners paying for the experience.

Thiefs and liars
Going on safari was a lifetime dream of mine. When my husband finally agreed to embark on this adventure I could not be happier. We had used African Adventure specialists and were excited that we were allowing an experienced company create our itinerary. My husband specified which lodge he wanted to stay in as well as his expectations and we thought the rest would be taken care of.
During our trip we started questioning the total cost of our trip because it was off season as well as the prices seemed outrageous compared to people we were talking to who had similar trips planned as us.
We started investigating and speaking to hotel managers and lodge owners and when they saw our furry they all printed out the exact invoices as well as the transfer amounts made by African adventure specialists.
After receiving all the invoices and transfer statements we realized that we had truly been taken advantage off and we were way too trusting.
African adventure specialists overcharged us $9,654.
On top of that, after we had confronted them, instead of making it right they proceeded with fake promises and then completely ignoring us.
The last day of my trip was spent waiting at the lobby of the hotel for “proof” from African adventure specialists and after reassuring the hotel they were on the way nobody showed up.
It’s been two weeks of running after someone to get some answers and there is no responses.
I would never recommend this company to anyone if you don’t want to be robbed..
I’m sad that my dream trip had to end this way.
