Smashed it!
5/5

Where to start... Communication was really good from start to finish. Patricia was really helpful and accommodating to our needs and replied quickly to our emails/messages.

The pickup from our hotel was prompt and Julius explained our itinerary to us and how long each journey would take.

Julius was a fantastic driver, really friendly and knowledgeable about the animals, community, culture and the area. We would highly recommend you request him! His driving was 10/10 as we had to go into a rather precarious position to see the leopard but he had it in hand!

The places we stayed were good although some were quite a lot quieter than others which was a shame but it cannot be helped. Food was good, a lot of variety and staff were always on hand to help. I would recommend getting quite a few 50/100/200 kes notes for tips as everyone wants to help you with bags or bring you drinks!

We loved the masaai village. Our one regret is that we didn't bring gifts from home for them. Things like colouring pencils/pads/pens local foods/sweets, socks, hats, even cheap flip-flops!

We had an amazing time and we were so happy that we managed to see everything. It was a long 5 days with a lot of driving but it was broken up really well with little activities.

Thank you so much

Amazing 3-day Safari trip with our guide Joseph
5/5

Just returned from an amazing safari trip booked with Natural World Kenya Safaris. The company is very well organized from the booking on the website, to receiving further details through email and finally to setting up the pick up and drop off once we’re in Africa. Esther, who works in their offices, was very clear and great to work with in setting up our pickup from the hotel. Then our pickup from the hotel was very sharp as our amazing driver, Joseph M., had arrived early to make sure we wouldn’t be late. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide as Joseph is incredibly knowledgeable not just about the safari and all the animals but also about the city and culture around Nairobi and all of Kenya! We spent 3 days total with Joseph and in that time he was able to show us everything we wanted to see. A feat we didn’t expect to accomplish as, outside of the normal zebras/gazelle/wildebeest you see everywhere, we were able to catch a glimpse of: the 5 musketeers (cheetahs), a leopard, a couple rhinos and the infamous baby Tira (spotted zebra)!! Tira apparently migrated back to Tanzania the day after we saw her so it was amazing to get the chance to see such a rare zebra before she left the Masai Mara area. All in all it was an amazing safari experience and no doubt if and when we come back to Kenya we will be booking with Natural World and more specifically be requesting Joseph’s company again!

Amazing Safari
5/5

Just returned from a comprehensive 13 days trip through Kenya and Tanzania (Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Maasai Mara, Lemek Conservancy, Serengeti, Ngorongo, Tarangire, Amboseli). The entire organisation was well done by Duncan who responded to my emails very fast and was always answering all my questions. The accommodations included in the package were all perfect in anyway.

For the Kenya part our guide/driver Anthony was amazing. With over 20 years of experience in the business, he was able to identify all mammals and birds for us and also told us a lot of facts about them. He also brought us right in time to the action, so that we saw Lions eating Zebras, Wildebeests and even a Hippo. Furthermore we were able to observe a mother lion with their four cups having a zebra-dinner and -breakfast before the hyenas and jackals took over the remainings. And of course we ticked off all the Big5 from our list. Apart from that we also saw an enormous amount of birds and other mammals which Anthony showed and identified for us. Additionally to the facts about the all the animals, we also heard interesting stories about Kenya and he was always ready for some joking, so the hours and hours we spent in the car driving around passed very quickly and we had a great time together. Anthony and the organization advised us very well and tried to fulfill us all our wishes.
The Tanzanian part of the trip, carried out by their partner firm SG Tanzania Tours & Safaris, was also amazing.

All in all the Safari completely exceeded our expectations and we are already looking forward to our next Safari-holiday with this company and Anthony. We can only recommend you to have your safari trip with Natural World.

Great tour with very knowledgeable guide
5/5

Natural World Kenya Safaris provides a great safari experience. Our fantastic tour guide Robinson Ngigi has an exceptional knowledge of the flora and fauna in the region. He is very friendly and always goes the extra mile for his customers. We could not have asked for a better one and highly recommand his services.

Great guide, great accommodations ... some long drives.
4/5

I highly recommend this company. We chose the 11 day package that started in Ol Pejeta and ended in the Maasi Mara. The accommodations were always better than we hoped and the guide, and his knowledge, we're exceptional. We chose the "comfort" level, wishing to stay in the various tented camps along the way. (In my opinion, the best way to enjoy a safari). The only downside was a couple of days of long drives, always a bit longer than stated. However, the game we saw more than made up for a couple of long driving days. The guide, accommodations, travel vehicle and game viewing all exceeded our expectations.

Perfect tour, well organised and executed, fabulous days
5/5

The 9-day safari in a 4x4 land cruiser for us 3 was well organised and fully reliably executed. Many thanks, Patricia and Charles - you made this an unforgettable and gorgeous experience.

During the 9 days travelling to 6 national parks we saw so many different landscapes, sceneries and animald with lots of moments far beyond our expectations. Further we learned a lot about Kenya, its culture and economics while travelling throughout the country. Overall the Safari was fabulous. The most admired camps were Kandili (at the Masai Mara conservancy - it was so pleasant and authentic) and the Satao Camp in Tsavo East. They topped the other good ones.

So: For us a tour with Natural World Kenya Safaris is clearly recommendable.

Unforgettable trip and very well organised
5/5

From our first enquiry all questions were answered promptly and efficiently. The booking process was clear and we were able to have our first choices of all accommodation. No question was too small to ask.
The inclusive airport transfers were very welcome and again communication was great for this.
Our driver /guide picked us up as planned and the whole safari was excellent. Having a personal safari was so much better than travelling with a group as we had the freedom to choose what we wanted to persue in each place. Joesph our driver was great and we always felt safe with him and his knowledge of the wildlife was good and informative. Every day contained so many wow moments. The highlight had to be seeing a family of Cheetahs chase, kill and eat a wildebeest!
The personal touches from the company of the gift of safari blankets and having a check call from Humphrey the owner before we finished our trip were very welcome. I would recommend this company to family and friends.

Thank you for booking and experiencing your Kenya safari with Natural World Kenya Safaris.

We are excited about your satisfaction on the 6 days Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru & Maasai Mara safari. A safari literally means journey, and the long drives with plenty of game viewing drives form the essence of an African safari.

Thank you for taking time to mention our efficiency in the administration of your safari tour and booking process.

Until your next visit to Kenya..Kwaheri!

A Perfect 3-day Safari
5/5

We did a 3-day safari from Nairobi to Mombasa with Natural World Kenya Safaris in July, 2019 and our experience was excellent.
Communication before the safari worked very well and the company even offered to pick us up from Nairobi airport a day before the safari.

The safari itself was an unforgettable experience and everything had been well planned. We visited Amboseli and Tsavo East National Parks and saw a lot of animals, e.g. lions, giraffes, hippos & elephants. We stayed in two different lodges (Amboseli Sopa Lodge & Ashnil Aruba Lodge) and they were very good, with tidy rooms and nice pools.

Our driver/guide Kennedy was professional and friendly. He was very good in spotting animals and explaining us more about them.
I can highly recommend Natural World Kenya Safaris based on my experiences.

Jambo Eemi Lappalainen from Finland,

At Natural World Kenya Safaris, we always give you the most choices – how many days do you want to go on safari? How many parks?

We offer tours from 3 to 12 days and choices of up to 10 beautiful parks, so there’s a safari trip waiting for every budget, schedule and desire.

In your case the 3 days (2 nights) tour to Amboseli & Tsavo East National Parks, as you say, was an excellent experience! Your professional and friendly tour guide and driver Kennedy made this possible.

These Nairobi to Mombasa tour packages are special! We’ve taken some of our best safaris and joined them with a fabulous finish – a fun, fast, comfortable train journey to the pristine Kenya coast. You’ll get to safari at our finest parks, see the animals, enjoy the landscapes, and then head off for a resort vacation of rest and relaxation.

And at your tour’s end, we’ll pick you up from the new, modern train station on the coast and deliver you to the resort of your choice – at Mombasa, Diani, Malindi, Kilifi or Watamu.

We are glad that you got to enjoy the whole experience, including your nightly stops at Amboseli Sopa Lodge & Ashnil Aruba Lodge. We look forward to hosting you, your family & friends in future.
