Mary was the best safari guide we could have wished for.
5/5

We arrived in Nairobi , stayed overnight in a local hotel before being introduced to Mary ( the assigned tour guide/ driver) from the start Mary was professional, courtesy & full of knowledge.
We travelled the 4 hours to the Ashnil lodge , throughout the journey Mary was attentive/informing us of passing points of interest & answering our relentless questions!
We arrived at the Lodge @ 2.00pm , (just time to check in& lunch ) & we were out on safari ( with Mary) @ 4.00pm til 7.00pm, back forr evering meal @ the lodge.
The next day & the following 3 days continued with Mary meeting us @ 7.00am smiling/ joking / networking for the best locations with fellow colleagues , her aim , to give us the best safari possible & she certainly did!-
First class professional guide, full of knowledge.

3 Nights Kudu Safari
5/5

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Safari Experience with Pollman's Safaris

Our 3-night safari was truly unforgettable, thanks to the outstanding professionalism of our guide, Kifali, and our driver, Jimmy.

From the very beginning, they made us feel welcome, safe, and comfortable. Their kindness, positive attitude, and constant good humor added so much to the experience.

Kifali's knowledge of wildlife, nature, and Kenyan culture was exceptional. He shared fascinating information throughout the safari and always took the time to answer our questions with enthusiasm and patience. His ability to spot animals was remarkable and allowed us to enjoy incredible wildlife sightings.

Jimmy was an excellent driver. The safari roads can be challenging, but his driving was always smooth, safe, and professional. We felt completely at ease throughout the journey.

Together, Kifali and Jimmy formed a fantastic team. Their passion for their work, dedication to their guests, and genuine kindness made this safari a truly memorable experience.

We were fortunate to see beautiful landscapes and amazing wildlife, but it was also the human experience that made this trip so special.

A heartfelt thank you to Kifali and Jimmy. We highly recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

A Memorable Safari: Experiencing Africa with Omar, Our Off-Road Hero
5/5

Our safari with Omar Shee was more than just a trip; it was a true adventure that opened our hearts to Africa. Omar isn’t just a driver—he’s a storyteller of emotions. He speaks both Italian and English with ease, but more importantly, he speaks the language of enthusiasm and passion. Every animal he showed us—from majestic lions to elegant zebras—came with his contagious smile.

Omar guided us with a mix of confidence and kindness that made every moment special. He struck that perfect balance of professionalism and warmth, making us feel like true explorers in safe hands. He’s a charismatic guy who’s studied to give us the best experience, showing us not just the wildlife but the true soul of the place.

By the end of our three-day safari, we realized Omar had done more than just drive us around: he had turned a family dream into reality. We left feeling like we were saying goodbye to a friend, not just a guide. So if you want a safari that’s truly different from the usual tour, Omar is the one to choose. He’ll let you experience Africa with a unique, authentic, and unforgettable touch.

Amazing knowledgeable guides who made our experience out of this world
5/5

We were a party of 8 & had two jeeps. Our guides Dennis & Haron were both amazing & made our experience outstanding. Their knowledge was second to none & they made sure we saw everything over the 6 days.
They were fun & great to spend the day with. They were both very professional & polite & always had our safety & comfort in mind.
I would highly recommend Pollmans if you’re planning to visit Kenya.
Outstanding service & attention to detail.

Pollmans the only way to see Kenya
5/5

We did the 7 day Kenya Classis safari 6/1/2024 . What an amazing experience!! No words can describe the feeling of being up so close to the animals in their natural environment.
Our AMAZING Guide Peter made our trip unforgettable , he was a wealth of knowledge regarding animals birds vegetable and we were up front for all the best pics.
He had the patience of a saint with us stopping EVERY single time we asked for a pic .
He could spot the smallest of animals in the distance and was constantly on the radio to find the best spots to go to .
He advised us to do afternoon safaris earlier in the day when he knew the weather was going to be bad ( we had rain ) so we could get the very best experience.
Peter went over and above to ensure we were always happy and made sure we were well catered for in our accommodation.
Peter ensured our jeep was kept spotless he cleaned it at the end of every day & out water was refilled & refrigerated daily .A lovely surprise for me My runners were even cleaned by Peter after getting mucky on crescent island .
We made a forever friend with Peter he just made out whole safari .
And we look forward to him coming to visit us in Ireland
