Professional and kind
Very good experience. Marianne took care of us before we arrived in Kenya providing all the infos and our guide Tonny took us through Amboseli, Tsavo west and Tsavo East telling us about all the animals, the culture and making it a very pleasant experience.

An amazing safari, made special by an incredibile and passionate guide (Tonny).
We had a great safari experience thanks to our guide, Tonny. He was friendly and very professional, and he adapted the safari tour to our preferences, suggesting changes based on his experience (We did 4 days Safari: 2 days in Amboseli, 1 in Tsavo West and the last one in Tsavo East).
It was clear that he loves his job, and he taught us a lot about the animals we saw. Highly recommended!

Accurate, polite, clear
It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. From the very beginning, Maryanne was incredibly kind and provided clear and accurate information. The safari itself was amazing, and Tonny is an excellent guide who did everything possible to make our experience the best it could be.

Great professionists, always on top of every situation.
I had a really great time with Mufasa, they handled perfectly the 5-days safari trip we had. The price was reasonable for the length and target of the tour.
The tour itself was great, we missed the big 5 only because Rhynos didn’t show up, but we balanced with cheetahs and other elusive animals.
Nonetheless, our guide was amazing and really complement on the matter

We had an amazing experience with Mufasa and are so glad we chose to travel with them!
Our guide, Muturi, was truly outstanding. He made us feel completely safe and comfortable throughout the entire journey. His knowledge of the parks, wildlife, and local environment was impressive, and he shared everything in a fun, engaging way. We also had lots of laughs together, which made the experience even more special. He was a big part of what made our safari unforgettable.
The accommodation arranged for us was overall well organised and aligned with our itinerary. We appreciated the effort in coordinating everything in advance, and each place offered its own unique experience during our journey.
Maryanne was wonderful from start to finish—very attentive, kind, and always checking in to make sure everything was going smoothly. Her communication was clear and timely, and we genuinely felt she had our best interests at heart throughout the entire trip.
Our expectations were not only met but exceeded. We’ve come home with incredible memories and enjoyed every moment of our journey.
We would definitely recommend Mufasa to anyone planning a safari in East Africa!

Amazing 3 day safari in Tsavo East!
We had an amazing 3-day Safari in Tsavo East arranged by Lucy from Mufasa Tours and Travels.
Lucy was extremely patient - answering all my 800 questions in the booking process – and after! She was helpful and kind, and she managed to arrange the perfect Safari for our little family!
We brought our 2 children of 6 and 9 years, and everything went so well!
Our driver knew the plan and the lodge, so he had everything under control, meaning that we could focus entirely on just taking in the beautiful surroundings and the impressive animals we met.
Our driver, Mahmud, was very kind, easy to talk to, humorous and very knowledgeable! It was clear that he knew the park very well and knew where to look to spot the different animals. He really made a great effort, and we managed to see everything we hoped for!
Mahmud suggested that on our final morning, we took an extra game drive in the park before he would drop us off at the train station. So instead of just an ‘en route’ game drive to the train station, we spent 1,5 hours spotting animals for the last time. This is where we saw the Leopard up close. It was an incredible experience. Simply amazing!
The duration of 3 days (2 nights) was perfect for us, travelling with kids that age. It was long enough for us to get the real experience and spotting all the animals we hoped for, but not so long that the children lost interest and got impatient.
We were picked up at 06.30 in our Hotel in Diani Beach on the first day, went to the park and had our first game drive on our way to the lodge.
We had 2 nights at the Voi Safari Lodge and when the safari was over, we were dropped off at the train station in Voi from where we took the train to Nairobi.
Mahmud helped us get the tickets in the ticket office and made sure all was clear before he left.
It was very easy and safe to take the train from the Voi station to Nairobi, so I can recommend that as well.
I would certainly recommend booking through Mufasa Tours and Travels if you wish to go on Safari in Tsavo!

amazing experience with mufasa tours and travels
it started with very good communication with marry Anne, everything was going smoothly, we went over possible itineraries, and chose lodges according to budget.
a week before I received all the phone numbers of everyone I met on the ground.
then we met Steve!!!
I can't praise Steve enough!!
very knowledgeable guide,very professional driver, and all around amazing person, we had a great time both on the safari drives,and the drives between parks. Steve went above and beyond, sometimes even doing slight detours inside a park just to show us an animal that just came out and was spotted by other jeeps.
Hotels were great, Sopa Nakuru was our favorite.
I know I would highly recommended Mufasa and Steve as the guide to all my friends

Unforgettable Safari with MUFASA – A Birdwatcher's Dream Come True
Unforgettable Safari with MUFASA – Perfect Itinerary, Great Lodges, and a Bird-Loving Guide!
We had an incredible 12-day safari in Kenya with MUFASA Tours and Travels,
and it exceeded all expectations. The itinerary was perfectly planned—diverse, well-paced, and full of breathtaking landscapes and wildlife encounters.
The lodges were excellent: clean, comfortable, and well-located, offering a great place to relax after each adventure.
Our guide Kevin was truly exceptional. His deep knowledge of birds and genuine love for them made the experience especially meaningful for birdwatchers and photographers. He didn’t just know where to find birds—he felt it. Only someone who truly loves birds can understand when to stop, how to look, and how to give space and silence to those who want to capture the moment. Thanks to MUFASA’s professionalism, attention to detail, and personal touch, this was a once-in-a-lifetime journey. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a real, thoughtful, and enriching safari in Kenya.
And allways ask for kevin.

Trip of a Lifetime with Mufasa Tours & Travels 🌍🦁
We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Mufasa Tours & Travels for our Kenyan safari and beach holiday. Traveling as an extended family of five (three adults and two teenagers), we were looking for a seamless, safe, and memorable adventure—and Mufasa delivered beyond expectations.
From the very beginning, Mary Anne understood our needs and budget perfectly. The entire booking process was smooth and stress-free, all handled via WhatsApp. Communication was prompt, clear, and reassuring throughout.
🚐 Transfers & Logistics
Every transfer—from airport pickups to hotel and train station drop-offs—was perfectly coordinated and punctual. We were always provided with driver contact details, which gave us peace of mind. Everything ran like clockwork.
🦓 Safari Experience
Our safari guide Steve was exceptional. Professional, well-dressed, and softly spoken, he shared fascinating insights into both wildlife and Kenyan culture. We felt completely safe during game drives and long journeys between parks. Steve’s ability to engage both adults and teens made the experience inclusive and enriching. We truly feel lucky to have had him as our guide.
🏕️ Camps & Lodges
Each accommodation was thoughtfully chosen and exceeded our expectations:
- Zebra Valley Camp (Masai Mara): A standout! Our family villa tent with two rooms was superb, and the staff were incredibly welcoming.
- Sarova Lion Hill (Lake Nakuru), Tulia Amboseli, and Neptune Paradise Beach Resort: All were wonderful. Neptune Paradise especially stood out for wonderful, varied high quality food and friendly staff and lively entertainment team.
💬 Service & Communication
Mary Anne was a joy to work with—responsive, warm, and efficient. Every staff member we encountered was friendly and professional. The entire experience felt personal and well cared for.
🌟 Final Thoughts
Having traveled extensively, I can confidently say this was a trip of a lifetime. Kenya is a bucket-list destination, and Mufasa made it unforgettable. We’re so grateful for the memories and would recommend Mufasa Tours & Travels to anyone looking to explore East Africa.
Thank you for making us feel like part of the Mufasa family. Asante sana! 🇰🇪❤️
