Surreal experience it was!
Silas is an amazing tour operator running the safari update travels. He answered all questions patiently. He showed us the beauty of Kenya in an amazing way. Last but not least, our tour guide and drive Nelson is a cool man! We had a great 4 days trip with him entirely. I highly recommend Safari update travels

Fantastic and professional
We chose this tour operator for our safari in Maasai Mara. The price is quite reasonable for the so-called semi-luxury, aka mid range package. We give 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ including the cust service, suggested accommodation, transportation & awesome tour guide. 100% recommended 👌🏾.
Wycliffe as our tour guide, is reliable, informative, helpful & professional person. He's giving us a space to take thousands of pictures & videos for this once a lifetime safari.

Reliable service, personal approach, strongly recommended.
We went to Amboseli NP on a private tour (3 persons). Everything worked as agreed during the reservation. Not only we got an evening game drive on day 1 and a full-day game drive on day 2, we also got a morning game drive on day 3 (something many other tour operators apparently do not do). We liked this a lot since day 3 was the only day we could get pictures of elephants with Kilimanjaro in the background. Our guide Ken (Kennedy) worked hard to make our trip a memorable experience. He was willing to modify the tour schedule according to our requests (even though we stuck to the original plan at the end). We appreciated things like Ken waiting for us while we visited a Maasai village and driving us to our hotel at the end of the trip through a thick traffic in Nairobi. We worked with Silas (who runs the company) during the reservation/planning process. We had a lot of questions and he answered all of them promptly. He also checked several accommodation options for us to find a best available match. We stayed in Amboseli Sopa Lodge, a very nice place with great food. Just a bit further away from the park, but we knew this when booking. We paid a deposit upfront and the rest upon pickup as agreed. A great experience overall! An advice to future travellers: book your accommodation inside the park for a quicker access to morning game drives. For example , I would recommend Ol Tukai Lodge that we visited personally.

An An Unforgettable Safari Experience in Kenya!
When booking a trip to Africa the most important thing you can do is to make sure you have booked the absolute best Safari tour company and I believe we did exactly that!
Safari Update Travels gave us a journey that was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Even before we began our journey, the manager, Silas was available for all my questions. He helped us with packing essentials, vaccines, and he even checked on us throughout our booking - even made sure to check on us when we arrived back to our home. Silas, thank you so much for everything!
From the moment we landed in Kenya, everything was thoughtfully organized and flawlessly executed. The team made sure every detail was perfect, and their hospitality was second to none.
The package we selected included travel starting from Amboseli Park, to lake Naivasha, then to Lake Nakuru, and we finished off our trip at Masia Mara Park. Lake Naivasha even included a private boat ride to get up close and personal with the hippos and a ride over to crescent island where we got to walk the whole island with giraffes, zebras, impalas, wildebeest and even saw python nest!!!!!
Our accommodations were a mixture of hotels and tented camps. They were comfortable, clean, and close proximity to the parks. The food we ate was absolutely delicious. Enough variety for every one! The unbeatable views of the African landscape plus waking up to the sounds of nature and watching the sunrise near Kilimanjaro is something we’ll never forget.
We had the pleasure of having two guides throughout of booking, Francis and Kennedy both men were not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and ecosystems, but also passionate and engaging—making every game drive feel like a true adventure. We saw the Big Five (plus so much more!), including breathtaking moments with lions, elephants, and even a rare sighting of a leopard!!
This trip exceeded all of our expectations, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re planning a safari in Kenya, look no further than safari Update Travels —they will make your dream trip a reality!
