Patrick was a wonderful guide who made our tour very memorable
I am writing this review many months after our safari tour with Africa Marvel tours but I can still remember every thing clear as day.
I booked this tour for five people with Mercy Nthenge, our Safari Specialist from Africa Marvel Tours. I chose Africa Marvel Tours because they had the best packages online which fitted my groups needs and wants in terms of visiting Africa and its Savannah. Mercy was wonderful and actively helped us in getting the best deals, value for money, and tailoring the tour to our specific needs, always ensuring client satisfaction and comfortability. Communication through email was always reliable and the service was excellent. We were a group of five people and we did a three-day Tsavo East and Saltlick - Taita Hills Sanctuary tour.
Our guide Patrick arrived at our hotel in Nairobi bright and early to start our journey through Kenya. It was quite a long drive to Tsavo East National park allowing us to visit the country along the way. Upon arriving at our hotel, the Ashnil Aruba Lodge, the staff were very friendly and we were able to have lunch and settle in before our afternoon game drive. Tsavo East is such a special place and we got to see many zebras, elephants, giraffes, lions, many species of birds and impeccable savanah landscapes. 100% recommend this lodge for your holiday. I was very impressed with the guides professionalism in the park where there weren't many jeeps on top of each other and the guides gives the animals space to walk around and not going close enough to intimidate the animals.
The following day we made our way to Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary where we stayed at the Salt Lick Safari Lodge. This lodge is high on stilts which allows for the most amazing view of the Savannah landscape and allows you to experience Africa and all its wild animals just outside your window. Upon arrival at the lodge, we had lunch and the an afternoon safari. Patrick would play great music and sang beautifully for us. In the evening, we had the craziest and most upclose experience with elephants coming to drink from the waterhole just near the sitting area. This has got to be the best experience I have ever had with elephants. The following day we made our way back to Mombasa where we took the train from Voi to Mombasa which took approximately 2 hours.
We had such a wonderful time on our safari thanks to Mercy and her team for planning the best itinerary for us. Both lodges were beautifully integrated into nature where we were able to experience the animals with little to no disturbance. The food and service at both lodges were 10/10. We booked a 4X4 Land Cruiser jeep which was VERY comfortable and allowed everyone to experience the views and animals outside. Our guide Patrick and a very knowledgeable and kind man who is always full of joy. Africa Marvel Tours really took care of us on this trip and even sorted included our train fares from Voi to Mombasa into our package deal.
I would 200% recommend Africa Marvel Tours to anyone who wants the best experience of an African Safari in Kenya. Keep up the excellent work, service, professionalism Africa Marvel Tours team, you guys and amazing and thank you once again for our excellent adventure!

Perfect Safari with Africa Marvel
We had a brilliant experience as a family of five on our 3 day Safari organised by Africa Marvel.
Mercy was so helpful providing different options until we were certain of which we would go with (Tsavo East and Taita Hills). Communication was excellent from booking through to the trip itself. It was so lovely to get to chat to Mercy on the phone while we were mid trip - as she checked in to see how we were getting on.
The Safari itself was amazing - better than we could have imagined. Our Safari guide and driver Francis was the best, a consummate professional! Our lodges were beautiful and we were extremely happy with the standard included in the very reasonably priced package. I would thoroughly recommend - thank you Mercy and the team for making it so special for us.

Very trustworthy
We visited the Maasai for two nights. We stayed at the Lodge. It is a tented lodge with about 24 tents. The lodge itself and everybody that work there was great! The temp was very spacious and had everything we needed.
We went on two full day safaris and a half day safari during our time at the Maasai Mara. Our guide, Joe, was fantastic and we saw all of the big five animals. He was very willing to wait until we got our full fill of viewing of each animal. He also had a lot of information about the animals and the flora and Fana of the area. I’m a Sara was very beautiful and the safari were very relaxing. We enjoyed our time there.

Patrick was the best guide we could've asked for!
Communication was seamless, price was competitive/comparable to similar offerings from other tour operators, logistics were seamless (and when they couldn't, staff was helpful and empathetic), the tour delivered exactly what it promised (allowing also for some desired flexibility) and our guide and driver couldn't be better – Patrick is the best!

Unforgettable Masai Mara Safari with Africa Marvel Tours
We had an amazing three-day safari experience in Kenya’s Masai Mara with Africa Marvel Tours. Everything was perfectly organized, and we were absolutely satisfied. Our guide, Patrick, was outstanding—knowledgeable, friendly, and always punctual. He shared fascinating insights about the animals and drove very safely throughout the trip. The vehicle was clean and comfortable, and Patrick took us to the best spots in the reserve. We were lucky to see almost all the major wildlife (except for the leopard and rhino), which made the experience even more memorable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a professional and fantastic safari adventure!

Africa Marvel Tours. Attentive, reliable, and professional.
Massimo and I spent six days in Kenya in July. Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli.
Thanks to Zunira of Africa Marvel Tours, we created our tailor-made trip with patience: ours, but especially hers! She supported us and guided us through our choices, suggested and booked excellent lodges for us, advised on the itinerary, and answered our questions. Africa Marvel Tours was prompt in their responses and attentive to our needs. The field experience with the guides was also excellent. Philip and Francis accompanied us with professionalism and kindness during our wonderful days in Kenya. Philip was a highly skilled driver, and Francis was our Italian support, allowing us to fully appreciate the world around us.
We spent magnificent days, seeing the incredible wonders of Kenya's nature, the Big Five, and experiencing the lodges and camps. The encounter with the Maasai was special and will always be cherished, as is the beauty of the Maasai Mara (the hills, the acacia trees, the thousands of wildebeest—I could write for hours about lions, cheetahs, a shy leopard perched atop a tree, the jackal, my favorite, antelopes, gazelles, and more), Lake Nakuru with its rhinos and thousands of birds, and Amboseli National Park, with Mount Kilimanjaro in the background, and its magnificent elephants and hippos.
We discovered a lush, exuberant, vibrant nature and met cheerful, professional, and capable people.
Thank you to all the staff for the wonderful experience you gave us.

Friendly and very knowledgeable
Everyone we dealt with was very friendly and very knowledgeable. Even when the airline lost one of our bags Africa Marvel went out of their way to make sure our bag was found and delivered to us within 48 hrs. This tour company gets full marks for their service. Highly recommend using them. The guide was easy to understand in English and he never rushed us. If we wanted to just sit and look at the animals that’s what we did.

Perfect organisation and a great experience.
We did a 4 day safari with Marvel Tours and we had the best possible experience. The communication was great from the moment we booked. The accommodations were very good and our preference was definitely Salt Lick lodges. But the biggest shout out goes to Sammy, our guide , he made our experience an unforgettable one. Thank you again.
