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.

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.

Easy, friendly and generous staff
Booked with them five months in advance, wasn’t happy when the venue was changed but I understood it was because of Covid precautions. They kept us upto date with the state of travel and when we finally got to Malindi, we enjoyed the staycation. Great reception too, from airport transfer to visiting the attractions, their website had everything true.

Very Professional
African Adventure Specialists were so helpful from the very beginning when I planned a trip to the Mara - I was in touch with Andrew and he was very flexible with dates and different services my family and I needed. We even extended our trip while were were already in the Mara and Andrew did not mind and found a way to make it work. Larwince our driver was very professional - he did not speed and wore his mask the whole time he drove us and made sure to sanitise everything any time left the vehicle. Andrew also makes sure his employees are covid tested bi-weekly and is very transparent about when his employees last got their tests. We will definitely be using African Adventure Specialists again in the future!

Excellent Tour Company / Excellent Service!
African Adventure Specialists is a top-notch tour company. The communication between them was always prompt and thorough and polite. Their representative was knowledgeable and thorough and went above and beyond to make everything perfect for my tour. They customized my tour to the Masai Mara to be everything and MORE than what I expected. Communication and payment was always prompt and easy.
GREAT tour company that I would use again!

Very helpful and efficient
Couldn’t really asked for a better service , since the beginning when I contacted the company , the instant quick replies I got from Tobiko were what got me into making sure I book with the company , all our requested were dealt with in a timely manner , the trip was for three photographers which was simply amazing because of all the help extended by owners and the guides themselves. I think I found my favorite company now to deal with in all my upcoming safari trips ! Highly recommended
