A professional and reliable safari agency that offers well-organized tours.
4/5

We had a great experience with this safari agency and would definitely recommend them!

Communication before our arrival was excellent, everything was well organized, and our guide Francis was a safe driver who worked hard to help us spot as many animals as possible. We especially loved the Masai Mara, Crescent Island, and the hotel in Nakuru. The breakfasts and dinners were also very good.

There are a few areas that could be improved, such as providing more information during the safari about the wildlife and local culture, giving clearer daily schedules, and improving the lunch boxes. But these are only minor points.

Overall, we had an amazing trip and will keep wonderful memories of our safari in Kenya. Thank you to the whole team!

Communicate and promote actively
5/5

We communicated smoothly with this travel agency. Although there were some minor problems, we were lucky to see big five and animal migration. The entire trip was smooth. I recommend choosing this travel agency.

Great Safari to Amboseli
5/5

I selected Alphadean safaris after receiving three quotes. I found Jemimah to have been very responsive, not pushy, and quoted me a safari I was happy with. Communication with her was great! She also stored a bag for me (don’t do that as Nairobi traffic was terrible, lesson learned). The safari was also great, my guide got us safely to amboseli and the safari was great! Definitely pay the premium for the hot air ballon! All in all it was a really great safari experience!

Our tour was an excellent value for the money
5/5

Our tour guides, Mike and Phillip, were both excellent. I felt safe at all times in our travels and accommodations. The driving conditions were very difficult at times, and they both handled the roads with professionalism and skill. My daughter and I had a great adventure on a budget and would recommend to anyone interested. We hope to be back!

Friendly, knowledgeable and fun
5/5

I had an amazing time with Philip Mutune at Amboseli! He went out of his way to make sure we saw everything possible, and got absolutely great pictures of shy Mt Kilimanjaro. He knew so much about the different animals and birds we saw.

Fantastic 5 days safari in Kenya
5/5

This tour was a fantastic experience, and with a very good quality/price ratio.

We were also a bit skeptical about the timing (mid March, so near rain season), but we were very lucky.

We were able to see countless animals, we've enjoyed the full experience, our driver was amazing and the agency (Alphadean) was very collaborative. I'd recommend this tour

Action packed tour for a great price!
5/5

We are 4 students on a very tight budget and we had a great time with alpha dean! We were quoted a great price for our tour by Jemimah, who was super helpful at organising everything and gave us loads of options to find what fitted best with our plans. We settled on a five day tour with two days in the Masai Mara, plus a trip to lake Nakuru and lake naivasha on the way back, driving from Nairobi. They were very helpful in us getting cash out to pay for the tour and other extras along the way. The shared tour ended up being just the 4 of us as it was off season. They offered us an upgrade of vehicle at the last minute for $200 which we didn’t accept, but may offer a more comfortable experience as it was quite a loud & bumpy ride in the mini van. This wasn’t an issue for 4 young guys expecting a budget trip, but if it was full/for those who prefer a slightly calmer experience we’d recommend upgrading! We arrived in the Masai Mara campsite on the first evening after a long drive. The camp had WiFi and great food included for our price bracket, with a nice bar to buy ourselves drinks. We then left early the next morning for a whole day game drive. It was brilliant, our guides Anthony and Dan were experts at navigating the muddy conditions and found us everything from lions to elephants and even a leopard. We also enjoyed a walk along the Mara river with a ranger, making each day feel completely unique. We had an amazing experience both days on the reserve and the rain hardly affected our trip at all. The second evening our car broke down, but the guys dealt with it really well, and we were picked up by another tour guide who looked after us. The guides at alpha dean are friendly with everyone on the Mara and it really shows! The third day was another driving day, with a long trip to Nakuru where we stayed in a lovely hotel. The last day involved a long morning game drive in Nakuru where we saw rhinos and an array of great bird life that we couldn’t see on the Masai Mara. We then finished the tour by driving to lake naivasha where we were able to enjoy a boat ride ($20 pp) and a nature walk (another $20pp). These were brilliant so we’d highly recommend, just be aware that they cost extra. There’s also a strong culture of tipping so make sure to factor that cost in! Overall we had an incredible experience with alpha dean and we’d definitely recommend doing a safari with Jemimah, Anthony, and team in future!

Essential
5/5

I had a great 3‑day safari in the Maasai Mara. The experience was well organized and the tented accommodation was much better than expected—comfortable, clean, and with all the essentials. Considering the overall quality of the service, the price-to-experience ratio is very fair. A memorable trip and a good value for money, but paying cash you will save some 5 % extra fee that they will charge you paying with card.

It’s wonderful to know that the organization of the trip and the tented accommodation exceeded your expectations. We always aim to provide comfortable stays and memorable wildlife experiences while keeping our safaris affordable and good value for our guests.

We also appreciate your note regarding the payment options. Yes, card payments do include a small processing fee charged by the payment provider, which is why paying in cash helps guests avoid that extra cost.

It was a pleasure organizing your safari, and we hope to welcome you back to Kenya for another adventure in the future!

Quick response, flexible planning, fine for a budget safari
4/5

We had a good experience, very quick and easy communication with the kind office woman Jemimah, flexible planning according to our wishes. Kim and Bonni our guides were very nice. Bit of a mix and match with different people you meet on the way but makes sense as it is a budget safari.
