Epic summit experience, very low budget tour
+ price
+ trek team of porters, chef and guide
+ food
+ prompt email communication with office
+ day 2+3 great hiking, epic summit sunrise experience
- transportation from Nairobi to the mountain and back is public transport (no mentioning before)
- first day wasted with transport and gathering food+equipment, only started hiking at 3:30pm, 2 hour paved road hike to Moses camp
- tent was dirty, old, zipper not working
- mattresses dirty, one day unacceptable
- rest day should be skipped, no relaxing possible in raining season, facilities dirty and low budget
- last accommodation at Bandas unacceptable, unsafe tenting with wildlife at tent, washroom unusable
- last day useless, several hours on 4x4 road with constant discussion when to call for transport at our costs for the entire team. Need to be clarified before. Costs up to 80 USD for vehicle.
Overall fair price, but also very low budget. Day 1 and 5 need to be discussed and agreed on before payment. With reasonable fitness only 2 days and 1 night at Shipton Camp needed. Fantastic summit experience, great chef, porters and guide. Communication with guide was limited, we always had to ask for info.

Unforgettable trip to Safari!
I was on a solo trip and took organized trip 2 nights to Massai Mara with these guys. The trip went over my expectations. In 1 day and a half we were so lucky too see all animals I could ever imagine including 4 big of Kenya out of 5. Our guide, Sami, was SUPER NICE! He was always punctual, cordial and patient with the group. If I come back again, I'll definitely book a tour with them again!!

Everything about the tour was better than promised
I was on the search for a safari tour operator in Kenya and stumbled upon Dennsland. Their game was strong - fast replies, super clear details, and options to choose from. The price they offered me was so good, I briefly wondered if it was a scam. Spoiler alert: it was 100% legit.
They even picked me up before I even paid a cent and let me pay at their office after providing a briefing and just before leaving for the safari.
Now the tour itself and all the logistics were smooth. Our drivers weren’t just drivers, they were walking encyclopedias with a sense of humor and GPS-level instincts for animal sightings. They were very mindful and respectful to the wildlife and were safe on the road overall, which showed their wealth of experience.
I did the 7-day, 6-night circuit through Maasai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Amboseli, and saw just about everything. The accommodation was excellent—clean, comfortable, and full of character. I felt safe the whole time.
I had forgotten some of my things at Maasai Mara and Dennsland kindly helped me retrieve it. If you’re thinking about a safari, book with Dennsland. My experience in Kenya was great thanks to Purity and the team.

Fantastic 6 day budget safari
We booked the 6 day budget safari - Masai Mara/Lake Nakuru/Amboseli. Our driver Boni was fantastic. We used the 4x4 land cruiser, which I would say is a better choice.
First day we arrived to our accomodation in early afternoon for bufet lunch and then went to see the Masai village. Accomodation was ok for the price. Next day was full day in Masai Mara. We saw so many animals and also had a walk with a ranger to see hippos and crocodiles. Lunch was served as a box on nice picnic location on top of a hill.
Next day after breakfast we went to Lake Nakuru. On the way we had an option for 20$ pp to do a boat trip on Lake Naivasha, we saw a lot of birds and some hippos. Accomodation was a decent hotel.
Next day we did a half day drive in Lake Nakuru NP, saw many animals including white rhinos. After lunch (in buffet on the way and switching to a different group that also went there) we continued to Amboseli. The accomodation there had beautiful views to mount Kilimanjaro in the morning.
In the morning you can take a walk with Masai warrior around the camp for about 1-1,5 hours and see some animals. It costs 20$ pp. 9am we went for a whole day game drive to Amboseli. You will see hundreds of elephants there as well as other herbivores. Last day after breakfast we did about 3h game drive in amboseli and then started heading back home with a lunch on the road.

7 days Safari - Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha and Amboseli
We did the 7 days Safari (Masai Mara, Naivasha, Nakuru, Hell’s Gate and Amboseli). At Masai Mara we’ve got a special guide (Kulet) that let us see almost every animal. Masai Village was a scam, it was the worst part of the tour.
In Nakuru we’ve got a really nice resort, in the safari Kulet let us saw black and White rhyno.
Naivasha boat ride wasn’t pleasing but we’ve got a bad local guide (nothing to do with Dennsland, he was a local guide).
Hell’s gate was wonderful, chilling and memorable experience (bike tour).
In Amboseli we went to Nyati Camp, that was really clean and the bed was really comfortable. The safari was really pleasurable.
We’ve got 1 L of water per day during the game drive but there wasn’t water bottles while eating.
Everybody was really kind they accompanied us to a SafariCom shop letting us do the Sim for M-Pesa (Essential if you dont want cash, everybody accept it), and thay drove us to Madaraka Express because we’d to go to Mombasa.

Competent and friendly staff help reach the summit cheerfully
Well organised tour, attention to detail, friendly team members. I felt safe in their capable hands. They did not downplay the trek, gave real-time info, and were flexible in adjusting plans to accomodate energy levels.
Food is tasty and plentiful. Tents are comfortable. Schedule is adequate, enough time to sit and contemplate where you are.
On a side note, do not underestimate the cold and the weather. It changes fast, always be ready with appropriate extra clothing!
