David is 5 stars!
My Safari experience surpassed my expectations! David was outstanding from start to finish. His level of professionalism, knowledge and care were definitely 5 Stars! The tour company did everything they promised and more. I appreciated their attention to detail. I was able to relax, enjoy and be excited because they left nothing for me to worry about! I would recommend Native African Trails over and over again! If David is able to be your tour guide you are definitely in for a treat!

Best in Class!
We had an amazing week with David exploring the Masai Mara and Amboseli game reserves including the roads in-between.
As our driver and guide during this time David was extremely knowledgeable, professional and patient. Always providing us with great insights on his country, its people and the wildlife that we encountered. He was flexible and more than happy to adapt the daily schedule to our needs which was great.
David and Native Trails provided an exceptional experience that I can highly recommend. To the Masai Mara we will return!

Couldn't get any better- first safari experience
This was my first safari experience and Native Africa team gave their best to make it an unforgettable trip! David was an amazing tour guide and he made sure every day was filled with amazing wildlife sightings.
We were vegetarians and the food arrangement was also great. I'll do the photos do the talking
Native Africa- Perfect partner for Kenyan Safari experience
It was an absolute pleasure that I chose Native Africa Trails with our Tour guide as David for our trip to Masai Mara->Naivasha->Hell's Gate-> & Amboseli national Parks. David comes with his wealth of experience and knows his way around the national parks very well and is very informative about wildlife behavior. I got to see the Great migration crossing along with abundant wildlife spotting.
The team is very knowledgeable and can work along with you on your itinerary requirements. Their recommended accommodation such as Zebra Plains, Sopa Naivasha & Amboseli Serena were perfect and added to an amazing Safari experience.
I would definitely go for Native Africa Trails for future trips and highly recommend David and his team.

His knowledge of the wildlife and his ability to spot hard-to-get animals is exceptional.
David Mwangi was our guide on my family's June 2021 trip to the Mara. I must contend that the Maasai Mara is an exceptional place, and I can say without a shadow of doubt that David is one of the best tour guides I have had the occasion to work with. David was able to provide us with a very enriching experience of the Mara by scheduling and executing three safari-drives in which we saw many different species of wildlife. His knowledge of the various birds and animals, and his ability to spot (and identify locations for best spotting) hard to get animals is exceptional. I most admired his professionalism and patience that allowed us sufficient time to take-in each species, take pictures, ask questions and learn all we could about the species of interest to us.
Mr David Mbuthia is an excellent tour guide who absolutely knows his business. Best guide I've ever
I have lived and worked in Kenya for a number of years and have experienced many conservancy style safari trips. I can say without hesitation the the package delivered by Mr David Mbuthia (Native Africa Trails) is the best of them all, we have never seen so many of the big 5 so often. His attention to detail, knowledge of the Mara sites, prices and attitude towards his clients is excellent. I unequivocally recommend the 4 day safari experience to anyone, you will love it

Outstanding! Exceptionally knowledgeable, passionate and very considerate of his guests.
A very easy booking experience. The trip was expertly planned by Native Africa Trails with our bespoke needs taken into consideration. Incredibly enjoyable from start to finish. Safari vehicle very clean and well maintained. Hotel super. Maasai Mara beautiful. All in all one of the highlights of our time in Kenya.

Outstanding, totally professional and made a perfect break. Fully recommend. Book NOW, we will.
We had a tailored package in the Mara which was exceptional. His knowledge and professionalism was first class. We saw everything and more that we wanted. He worked tirelessly to deliver for us all from start to finish. It’s every small detail that makes him a step above the others we have used. Highly recommended and would use him again.
His vehicle was spotless, fully fitted with a fridge, phone charging points and exceptionally comfortable.
The local knowledge of the Mara enabled us to see everything we wanted.

Great safari experience
David was recommended to us by Mara Serena hotel, in which we stayed with a friend while visiting Masai Mara. David picked us up from the airport upon arrival, drove us to Masai Mara and did game drives with us. It was super convenient as we did not have time to plan ahead of our trip. As we were super happy with David, we extended our booking by a few more days, and went with him to Lake Nakuru Park.
Overall, we had a great experience with David. He is very knowledgeable about all topics, be it safari animals or Kenya politics. We truly had super interesting conversations. On top of that, David went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience, and always proved flexible, timely, and helpful.
Would recommend Native Africa Trails and David to anyone, and would definitely use their help should I come back to Kenya. Thank you again !

5 unforgettable days in Maasai Mara with David
David really is the guy you need for your safari adventure in Kenya for sure. Originally he was suposed to be "just" our guide for the Maasai Mara safari but ended up being much more than that. He went above and beyond to make our whole visit to Kenya go smooth and without any hustle. The time we spent in Maasai Mara was simply magical. David made sure that we saw the whole big five as well as the big nine (including the famous Fast Five) and so much more. We spent 4 nights in Mara Serena which also added to the experience (beautiful place with super friendly staff and great view from every room). If you want to watch the most exciting animals from up close while listening to a fascinating commentary about how they live and much much more, ask for David. 6 stars out of 5. Thanks a lot pal! See you next time
