Scam Company
Do not book through this company if you dont want to ruin your holidays. This guy Jose will take your money and will never provide the service. And you will never be able to get him on the phone as he will switch it off as soon as the payment is made. He will ask for advance payment and payment on the first day. Don’t ruin your holidays by booking with him no matter what he tells you. He is a good speaker ! This guy is bag of lies. He should be in jail for escroqueries !

Do NOT book with this company
Communication with this guy Joseph was terrible. We booked a 3 day trip to Masai Mara. We were supposed to meet them at 9am in the hotel, he arrived by 10 am with another couple saying he had a problem with another driver(probably a lie) and told us we had to share the safari, although we had paid for private safari. Finally we went to Masai Mara, we had our game drives and when we were leaving the camp site on the final day we were told we could not leave because the company hadn’t paid our stay. So to be able to leave we had to pay AGAIN for something it was already included. Terrible company, don’t even think to book with them.

SCAM Company
We booked a 9 day custom safari. As with the most recent review, communication was poor, but they did continue to respond. We have just landed in Nairobi. No guide has shown up to meet us. The number on their website is not working. We called the business that is supposedly located physically next to them and they have never heard of them. This company is a scam. They even placed reservations at some of the camps but never paid so that if we had called the camps to check on the reservations they would have existed at the time. Currently trying to figure out what to do with the next 9 days in Kenya.

Fake company
We booked in June for a 5 day safari in the mara. The communication was poor but they did answer the questions. Soon the day nobody turned up so we rang the company. They said that there had been a problem and that there would be a taxi picking us up to meet them at Maai Mahui. The taxi took us to where we were to meet the guide but they never turned up. We had to pay the taxi and we were stranded in the middle of nowhere. The company turned off their phones not long after we arrived at the meet point. The police have said that this is most likely a fake company with fake reviews. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

Best local safari experience
We were recommended by a friend to bimos travel. From the first email, quote, answering questions, booking and reservations..all was excellent. All the five of us were happy with the safari in mara for 3 days. Allan the driver guide was so informative. We are planning another trip with a bigger group in 2019. We highly recommend this team....

A Great Safari for First Timers!
This was a great safari experience at an unbelievable value! Leading up to the trip, communications were lacking so I was not sure what to expect. Everything about the trip went smoothly and the accommodations were akin to glamping. Peter, our driver, was incredible at navigating the roads and plains. I couldn’t be happier with my first safari experience.

We send a request to Bimos Travel and we had great quote, options from different lodges. Whatsap calls really helped to understands our needs.

All we wanted and value for money
We contacted several operators and finally settled on Bimos travel, communication is quick and accurate.. 4 days Mara safari could not have been better. The service was excellent, driver knowledgable, vehicle always clean. Binoculars and guide book in the car. The camp selected -ilkelaini mara was in a perfect location. We definitely enjoyed our safari. We will recommend this team to everyone.
