Above expectations
5/5

John was our guide and he was amazing!
He delivered an excellent experience making sure we saw as many animals as possible. He also shared facts about the animals and how to identify them.
We did a couple extra activities and he always made sure we had all the information we needed.

Ben is Simply the Best Tour Guide
5/5

We had 11 days and 10 nights trip with Ben and he's simply amazing. We want to thank Ben for the wonderful experience and memory. We will defenitely book a trip with Ben again when my kids grow older. Here are things we appreciate Ben the most.

1> Very warm, friendly and welcoming.
2> Very socialable - Ben's like a celebrity in Kenya and often time we met someone in the park or on the street and they recognize Ben and say hi to him. This is very helpful as it helps Ben find what he's looking for and knowledge sharing is one of the key to sucess in the safari adventure.
4> Strong passion and love with animals, and very knowlegeable with 20 years of expreince
- Ben got two thick animal dictionaries in his car and it seems he memorized everything in it. He could answer all animal's habit, personality and he could notice animals from distance with just one glance.
5> An exellent driver
- Ben knew his car very well
- Ben knew when to bypass a car and when not to
- Ben spent very little energy on driving so he could spend more energy on helping us finding animals
- Ben understood when to speed up and when to slow down, when to swich gears and when to switch from 2 to 4 wheels drive to safely and effieicntly take us to the destination or doing the game drive.
6> Strong animal finder - Ben knew animals habit very well and he used his network and experinece to trace animals down. We understood meeting animals require some luck, but Ben's finding skill is still very impressive that he understood where to target, which araes having higher chance to see animals vs which areas having lower chance, so Ben can target better.
7> Funny with a sense of humor
8> Ben had very good prioritization skill and understood what matters the most. Ben understood what we need then trying his best tohelp than just offering whatever he had. E.g. Ben knew some animals are very easy to see again so we don't need to spend too much time, and others are very hard to see again so he will help us get the best spot to see them.
9> Very honest and open and receptive to suggestions and feedback.
10> Overall Ben is a very expeirenced tour guide with deep passion and love on safari animals. We were lucky to meet with Ben and we felt in a safe, reliable, relaxed yet efficienty enviroment. Thanks Ben again for the wonderful memories!

Incredible 1 week Safari with Ben
5/5

We did a 1 Week Safari with Into Adventure Safaris and we were very luck to have Ben as our driver
We did Amboseli then Nakuru and finally Masai Mara
Ben was always on time and very reliable, even when we came 5 min earlier, he was always already there preparing everything for us!
He was doing everything possible to see all the animals weven when he got an info about an animal on the other side of the park he was not hesitating to drive as there as quickly as possible ;-)

We saw all the big 5 and even a Leopard for 3 times
Amazing Safari
If you plan to go to Kenia I can only recommend Into Adventure Safari and especially Ben!
Thanks Ben for the wonderful week!

Amazing experience from first email contact, to lots of questions, to even checking in on us after!
5/5

We had an AMAZING experience with Into Adventures! I reached out to several safari companies and Ben from Into Adventures was the best one with responses. He followed up with every question I had and I had a lot of them. I customized a lot of our trip and he was quick to accommodate my requests and provide a very fair quote. I felt very comfortable with our decision to go with them even before we stepped foot on ground in Kenya.

We spent 3 night in Masai Mara and then took a plane to Amboseli and spent 2 night there. It was the perfect program for what we wanted to do. My daughter is a photography major in college and both our guides (Ben in Masai Mara and Jackson in Amboseli) were amazing at getting her in the best position to get the most amazing shots. There are a lot of good safari companies out there and I doubt you will pick a bad one. But there aren't as many great ones. Into Adventures is a great one! Ben knows every driver out there and he stays in constant contact with all of them. So if there is a unique animal to see or a kill taking place, he will know about it and will get you there as quick as possible. Jackson was also incredibly patient with us as we spent hours trying to get a picture of a giraffe in front of Mount Kilimanjaro. The positioning of the Land Cruiser was critical and he was backing up, going forward, turning around or staying in position so we could get the perfect photo. We were fully committed and all-in on this trip to take full advantage of this opportunity. Both our guides were willing to get up with us way before the sun came up and get us to where we needed to be to see the most animal movement. Ben and Jackson from Into Adventures made this a trip of a life-time!

Great Safari with Super-Benson
5/5

Wow what a great safari, not only did we get to see the Big 5, we saw the Big 9 and my son's list of 15 favourite animals! All made possible by the skills and unrelenting endeavour of our driver and guide Benson. This was my second safari in Kenya and by far the best - with some magical moments including seeing a new-born baby elephant, a leopard dragging its kill up a tree and a early morning sighting of a family of Cheetahs. You don't see these kind of things by randomly driving around in a 4x4, it took the skills of a knowledgeable and determined guide, who made every effort to make our experience a magical one.

I'd highly recommend using Into Adventure Safaris, great choice of hotels, nothing was too much and great value for money.

A jovial knowledgeable and patience person. So accommodative.
5/5

Our booking was smooth with up-to-date info and quick response for any questions or clarifications we needed prior. On departure day we were late but he was patient enough to wait for us.
The debrief was perfect that makes you eager to reach the park as he talks.
We had stopovers at our convenience despite the already announced schedules.
We got more than we expected for a one day trip. This was the peak to me and reason why I recommend Into Adventures to anyone out there looking for value for your money and time.
In fact, you receive more than you paid for.
The bond in one day was amazing, we felt like one family.
It was more than just a trip but an opportunity to learn, bond and making new friends.

Into Safaris is a must if its your first time doing Safari in Kenya's Masai Mara.
5/5

I recently had the pleasure of booking a safari experience with Into Adventures for a trip to Kenya's Masai Mara, and I must say, it exceeded all expectations. From start to finish, every aspect of our journey was handled with professionalism, expertise, and a genuine passion for wildlife and adventure.

Booking Process:
Our journey with Into Adventures began with the booking process, which was smooth and efficient. Despite the initial concerns about transferring the deposit via wire transfer, the team at Into Adventures promptly addressed our queries and provided clear instructions, ensuring a secure transaction. Communication throughout this phase was excellent, leaving us feeling confident about our upcoming adventure.

Transportation and Guides:
Upon our arrival in Nairobi, we were greeted by 2 comfortable Land Rover vehicles and our knowledgeable tour guides, Benson and John. These guides were the heart of our safari experience, offering a wealth of information about the Masai Mara, its wildlife, and cultural aspects. Their passion and dedication to providing an authentic safari experience truly enhanced our journey.

Accommodation at Ashnil Camp:
Into Adventures arranged our stay at the luxurious Ashnil Camp, which exceeded our expectations in every way. The camp's serene location, luxurious amenities, and attentive staff made our time there truly memorable. You can literally see hippos from the front. The food was exceptional, offering a blend of local flavors and international cuisine that delighted our taste buds after a day of safari adventures.

Safari Excursions:
The highlight of our trip was, of course, the safari excursions guided by Benson and John. They expertly navigated the Masai Mara, ensuring we had close encounters with wildlife while respecting their natural habitat. We spotted 4 of the Big Five, every game drive was filled with excitement and awe-inspiring moments.

In conclusion, I highly recommend Into Adventures to anyone seeking an unforgettable safari experience in Africa. Their attention to detail, knowledgeable guides, seamless logistics, and dedication to conservation make them a standout choice for adventure enthusiasts. Thank you, Into Adventures, for creating memories that will last a lifetime!
