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

The company's experience makes the difference
5/5

For our family of 3, Pollman's provided the on-the-ground staff, logistics, and equipment for our fabulous 10-day Kenyan safari tour arranged through Orbridge. The staff, especially 2 people, made all the difference:

1. Alex Sempele, our guide and troubleshooter who daily and creatively solved problems and kept everything on track. He was always on the phone, checking ahead and following up, and was indispensable to creating an extraordinary experience. We are so indebted to him.
And 2. Mousa, our guide and driver. There was not an animal or plant he could not identify. In addition to his vast knowledge, he was personable and long-suffering in answering the group's unending flow of questions. And he had the amazing ability to spot all manner of creatures hiding in the savanna grass that we would have otherwise missed. It was uncanny. Both men clearly loved their work and took delight in the daily discovery of the wonders in the wild. Both we now consider as our family friends. As noted, they made all the difference in giving my wife and me along with our 24-year-old son an experience we will never forget.

Also, Pollman's safari trucks (modified Toyota Land Cruisers) were superior to many of the other vehicles we saw. They easily managed the many miles of rough roads and the lumpy off-roads with ease, allowing passengers to stand under a pop-up canopy that provided 360-degree views while protecting us from the sun.

Drivers were fantastic
5/5

We had Pollmans on the Kenya leg of our tour. The drivers for our group, Charles and Frank were fantastic. They were both very friendly and helpful and they taught us so much about the wildlife and Kenyan life. They both went over and above to ensure that our tour the best it could be. I can not recommend them highly enough

Excellent
5/5

We did the Horizon's safari with Pollman's. Everything from start to finish was excellent. Driver met us on arrival at the airport and took us to the hotel for our 1 night stay before heading off to Safari. The Horizon's safari takes you to 4 different parks so you get the full experience. The lodges we stayed in were excellent. Our driver, Mark, was outstanding. He was so knowledgeable, covering all topics including the animals, vegetation, and the history and culture of today in Kenya. He was very patient with us, stopping when we wanted to, he took the effort to look out for animals we particularly wanted to see, he never rushed us away on to the next thing. So happy we did this trip and would highly recommend Pollman's. Thank you.

Best trip ever!
5/5

From the second they picked us up from the airport to dropping us off, everything was done with complete professionalism. Our Tour Guide Mike was the best guide, he went over and beyond on our safari trips. Not only did he get us up close to the game viewing but also shared with us a vast amount of knowledge and expertise and was a great driver.
