Unique experience with KingTomondo Safaris in Kenya
We went with KingTomondo on Safari and we would do so again any day! It was our first Safari, we travelled to Tsavo East, Tsavo West and Amboseli National Park. Since it was our first Safari, we asked quite a lot of questions. Elizabeth, the owner, is a very friendly and helping person. She went out of her way to help us choose the best destinations and accommodations for our needs. Part of their staff speaks German, which was an additional advantage for us. They always reply in good time, too.
The Safari itself was great, we didn't expect to see as many beautiful animals and places as we ended up doing. Reading about coming close to Elephants, Lions, Cheetahs etc. is nothing like actually coming so close to them in reality. A wonderful experience!! Our driver was not only very knowledgeable and friendly, but also very entertaining. He knew the places so well and helped us to spot a big variety of beautiful wildlife. The car also was in very good condition.
To make it short: We had a very beautiful first Safari experience and we will be back soon for sure. We will certainly choose KingTomondo again and can recommend them to everyone looking for a Safari in Kenya.

My new go-to
KingTomondo will be my new go-to adress for Safari. First safari with them and already feeling like family, very very friendly service. I appreciate that they didnt try to force anything on me they gave me many options and time to make the best choice for myself. Replied to my emails even on sundays and late night. Gave me an additional discount. Safari was great, many thanks to our driver Alfa. Will be back soon, thanks to the whole team.

Best holiday ever!
Every part of the trip was amazing. Accommodations were excellent, everything went very smoothly, and even the weather was perfect. We visited 4 national parks and encountered probably more than 30 species of wildlife. Both our driver as well as the management were extremely friendly and willing to help, in fact our guide/driver helped us spot animals that we otherwise wouldn't have spotted. He seems to have magic eyes! ;-)
It was our first safari ever, but will not be the last one certainly. We will definitely come back to Kenya and use the same company, since we were very happy with how they treat their clients and how the safari went.

Personal ja friendly safari
Our experience with King Tomondo Safaris was absolutely great. we got very friendly and frequent advice/info from Lisa during the few weeks before the safari. Our driver Alfani was also friendly, with good humour and excellent driving skills. Tahri camp was wonderful and during the 48 h (2 nights) at Tsavo East we saw more than we ever could expect. Hundred's of elephants, zebras, lions, two cheetahs, giraffes, hippos, crocodiles, etc. etc. Two nights in one place was enough, however, and if we would have stayed for a longer safari, then we would have liked to move to, say, Tsavo West. So: thank you, King Tomondo Safaris, our expectations were met really well and we are happy to return one day.

Fell in Love with Kenya!!
Our trip was amazing. The organization went just as advertised, smooth pick-ups from the hotel on time and excellent communication, Lisa and Niklas did a wonderfull job and put in a lot of time and effort to find the best suitable safari for us. Payment was also easy, since you can choose to pay to their german bank account, no fees or anything.
What really left me speechless was the trip itself. The game viewing was soooo amazing thanks to our driver and guide Alfani, who knew the parks just like they are his backyard. Wow!! I never dared to dream that we would see so many animals, lions, a leopard, several cheetahs, elephants, giraffes and many more. My personal favourites were the zebras, they are even more stunning than in TV. Truly beautiful animals! And Although we got very close to the wild animals, I always felt very safe in the well equipped vehicle.
After the safari we didn't go back to Nairobi but spent some days at the coast in Watamu and also did a trip to Wasini island which was included in our safari package. We love snorkeling, so we really enjoyed. Kenya is just so diverse, we definitely have to come back soon to explore more of this wonderful country. Overall, a fantastic experience and we will definitely be using KingTomondo Safaris for future bookings!

Kingtomondo - absolutely recommendable!
We booked a 3 day safari from Nairobi to the coast. We went from Nairobi to the Amboseli and the Tsavo West National Park and finally ended up at the coast in Diani Beach.
Organization: The organization in advance was very good. Lisa quickly answered our questions via e-mail and the payment was quite easy because the offered to pay by bank transfer to a German account. Everything worked out very well.
Accommodation: Our accommodations were very nice and well located. The Sentrim Amboseli Lodge was right in front of the National Park and has a pool area to relax. The Rhino Valley Lodge is located in the middle of the Tsavo West national park on a mountain from which you have a great view. If you're lucky, you can spot some animals on the waterhole in front of the lodge.
Guide: Bashir was just awesome - very friendly and funny. He can tell a lot about the animals and national parks as well as the country and people in Kenya. He responded to our requests and always tried to fulfill them. In addition we liked that he is very considerate of the animals. Although we always kept a certain distance, we were still able to take great pictures.
Safari: We saw many animals on the tour - elephants, hippos, buffalos, zebras, wildbests, giraffes, antelopes, monkeys, hyenas, birds and even a rhino, leopard and cheetah. It was especially great to watch the animals bathing in the Amboseli National Park. It was a wonderfull tour with many nice impressions.
The safari with King Tomondo was a great experience and we had a great time!
Thank you so much!
Asante Sana!

Great communication, completely seamless trip, tailored to our needs
My friend and I were completely taken care of from our first communications with Tomondo, all the way through to the drop off back in Nairobi. Lisa was awesome with keeping us posted all along the way, from making sure the driver was picking us up at our home in Nairobi, letting us know that he'd arrived, and making sure we were having fun, while we were on safari. My husband initially chose Tomondo because of their prompt response and thorough answers to all of our questions. Travelling, we were two women, so we wanted to feel safe and comfortable all along the way, and we were! Nicholas was a great driver and went above and beyond, answering all of our questions (and then some!). He stopped when we wanted to stop to observe the animals and nature, and let us linger as long as we wanted to. We saw some AMAZING stuff while we were in Amboseli, and he made sure that we got to see everything that we wanted to. I'm vegetarian, and the kitchen staff and Kibo Lodge made sure I was well-fed. Our accommodations were spectacular....we loved the pool, the views, the staff, and the food. I'm definitely going to be returning with my family and will use Tomondo again! I highly recommend using them!

Awesome experience
We booked our Safari at KingTomondo and had a great experience. The lodge was awesome and our driver Bashir was very nice and made sure that we saw all of the different animals. Dinner included a delicious buffet of various local and international food and we really enjoyed. Communication with Lisa was very friendly and helpful. Again any time!
