5/5

My Wife and I booked a 3 day safari and worried at first that 3 days wouldn’t be enough time to see any animals, we had high hopes of seeing the Big Five. Boy was I wrong, Jimmy, our driver made sure that we had a full on safari experience in the short time we had. We were able to see 4 out of the Big Five plus a lot of other animals. Jimmy was very knowledgeable about both the park and the animals. Also Linsel assisted with booking and was amazing too. He made sure all our travel needs were met. He even arranged our Covid Test after the safari was over.

Thank you Safari Update Travels
5/5

Amazing experience from the first message of enquiry to the last minute before dropping us back to our residence. Linsel provided detailed information and assistance every step of the way, from months in advance to when we arrived in Kenya.

Martin, our driver, was very informative. He answered every question. He was very patient and delivered on every request.

We couldn't have chosen a better tour company other than Safari Update Travels.

Thank you!

We love Kenya!
5/5

This is our third trip to Kenya with Safari Update Travels. We love visiting Kenya and the staff at Safari Update Travels make things very easy. I had many questions about traveling during COVID, but Silas made it easy and explained everything.

We did a 12 day safari with Simon as our guide. Simon is excellent and his knowledge of Kenya, the parks and wildlife is amazing. Plus, he is a wonderful human.

This trip again exceeded our expectations from the service, to the camps, to the game drives.

If you are thinking of traveling to Kenya use Safari Update Travels. You will not be disappointed!

Lastly, if you are afraid or hesitant of traveling during the Covid-19 period, don't be!
Kenya is safe and they take every precaution to keep citizens and tourists safe!

5/5

I had a trip with Safari Update Travels.
Silas and Linsel arrived at my hotel on time and introduced me to James the driver. The whole 3 days were great, I really enjoyed it. The national park is big and busy with lots of animals. I recommend this company as they have a professional guide.

Absolutely wonderful safari. Martin was our guide. He was very knowledgeable, courteous, professional in every way. We appreciate how he gave us so much information about Kenya, the Masai people and the Masai Mara. Martin allowed us to see The Big 5. The best guide ever. Linsel from Safari Update Travels responded to all of our questions and concerns promptly. He was very patient and professional. We highly recommend Safari Update Travels.

Perfect Safari
5/5

I did a safari with Safari Update Travels. My safari was solo and I went to Lake Nakuru for a day and Masai Mara for 3 days. My experience was Amazing! Using Safari Update Travels for my safari experience was perfect. Silas was prompt to answer all the questions I had. James was my guide and I could not have asked for a more awesome guide. His knowledge of the parks and animals and anything safari related was on point, always! Thank you Safari Update Travels.

Perfect Honeymoon
5/5

My husband and I had a wonderful honeymoon with Safari Update Travels. I largely appreciated that everything was organized on the front end, and continued to be organized once in Africa. Our guides were informative, patient, and flexible. Three out of the four lodges that we stayed in were absolutely wonderful. They made our honeymoon one to remember. We wanted extra arrangements and Linsel who works with Safari Update made sure we got exactly what we wanted. I would highly recommend Safari Update Travels to friends and will likely travel with them again. Thanks!

Wonderful Wildlife Experience
5/5

An Amazing Experience in all it's forms. Our Guide Simon is actually a Masai, he made our trip exceptional with his continuous caring and drive to show us the best. The tribes are interesting to meet and see as well.
The Wildlife experience was breathtaking, it felt like we were in a Lion King Movie.
The trip was so organized and safe, the lodge was comfortable as well with good food.
Definitely if you think of taking a trip don't think twice, book with Safari Update Travels.

Best Safari Adventure
5/5

We contacted Silas at Safari Update Travels about a 4 nights and 5 days tour of the Masai Mara, Sweetwater and Lake Nakuru in an attempt to photograph the big 5. James was assigned as our guide. I can say that James worked as hard as any human could in order to help us experience the best safari adventure. His knowledge of the Masai was highly invaluable. His contacts and networking with various people throughout the park was impressive. We were able to obtain great photos of each of the animals we were hoping to see in 4 days. We will be returning and definitely using Safari Update Travels to provide our tour with James as our guide. We would highly recommend Safari Update Travels

Best Safari Experience!
5/5

Every day was brilliant, from the moment our extremely knowledgeable guide Simon picked us up at the Keekorok airstrip, to 3 days later when he saw us back onto the plane. Keekorok Lodge was exactly what we wanted. Wonderful surroundings and truly excellent food. All of the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.
The safari tour was superb. I counted 22 different animals which included a lion and about twenty lionesses, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, crocodiles, hippos, hundreds of herd animals and other creatures. One highlight was watching a leopard up a tree with its latest kill.
Best of all was the time spent with our guide Simon. He was superbly informed and an excellent communicator. He gave us a privileged insight into Masai culture and wisdom.
All the arrangements worked really well with Silas and Linsel at the Nairobi office organising everything smoothly. Silas was quick to respond to questions and assistance and that was much appreciated as this was my first time doing this.
Thank you to all involved.
