It was the best experience ever!!!
5/5

We booked a 4-day safari with Steve & Richard and had the best time! We were picked up from our hotel in Diani Beach on the morning of our arrival day, and after about a 3-hour drive we reached Tsavo West National Park. Within just a few minutes, we saw our first elephants and zebras!

Steve had chosen wonderful accommodations for us: Lions HillLodge, Saltlick Lodge (an absolute highlight), and Ngulia Lodge. Our driver Solomon was simply the best! He was incredibly friendly, attentive, and polite, guiding us throughout the safari and showing us the wildlife.

In the mornings and evenings, we went on game drives lasting about 2–3 hours each, and we saw all kinds of animals such as lions, hippos, zebras, elephants, leopards, and more. Steve always reserved the best rooms for us with views of the waterholes, so we could watch animals up close directly from our room.

Most of the lodges had a pool, delicious food, and most importantly plenty of wildlife right in front of us. Thank you for this amazing experience, Steve & Solomon! We will never forget it and would love to come back again.

I highly recommend a safari with Steven. Everything was arranged online before arrival. A brief meeting and off we went. In the park, the employee was fully committed and professional. The price was very reasonable.

Memories for Life
5/5

We did a 5-day safari with Steve & Richards (Tsavo East- Amboseli - Tsavo West). Even before we arrived in Kenya, we conveyed all our wishes to Steve and he put together a great family safari for us (2 adults / 1 child, 10 years) with consideration for children's needs. Everything went smoothly. All arrangements, schedule and preparations went excellently. We were able to experience a beautiful, individual, very private safari. All from Steve great, each with pool for refreshment and program for much more beautiful memories. Thank you, we were able to experience an unforgettable dream safari with our daughter. Our guides Festo and Harrison were also very accommodating and calmly mastered all the challenges of a trip through Kenya. We can only say THANK YOU and absolutely recommend Steve & Richards Safari

The guide of Steve and Richard Safaris was knowledgeable and flexible, really tailoring the tour according to my wishes. I could see all what I wanted, safely. I thank this company for having accompanied me in this Kenyan experience. I recommend it.

Steve & driver Solomon masterfully planned & executing extraordinary/affordable safaris‼️
5/5

To the incredible team at Steven & Richard Safaris,

I am writing to express our profound gratitude for orchestrating what can only be described as the journey of a lifetime. Our initial contact with Steven & Richard Safaris began last June, after discovering your outstanding reputation on Tripadvisor. From that moment, the WhatsApp conversations with Steve commenced, meticulously building our itinerary for a late January start.

The planning phase itself was a testament to Steve's exceptional dedication and expertise. Coordinating three travelers arriving from diverse international locations and departing at different times presented a complex logistical puzzle. Yet, Steve navigated every request and desire with remarkable agility, ensuring every detail was perfectly aligned. Despite the significant time difference between Seattle and Mombasa, Steve graciously accommodated numerous late-night calls, tirelessly addressing our questions and fine-tuning our preferences. His commitment laid the groundwork for an absolutely seamless experience.

Upon arrival, every aspect of our safari exceeded our wildest expectations. The anticipation of encountering Africa's iconic wildlife was immense, but the reality was far more breathtaking. We were thrilled not only to witness the majestic Big Five but also an incredible array of other species, including several magnificent felines like lions, leopards, cheetahs, and even the elusive civet cat, a true rarity! Each sighting was a profound moment of connection with nature.

One of the most unforgettable moments occurred on our final safari, where we were privileged to observe a family of four white rhinos – a formidable papa, a gentle mama, a tiny, months-old baby, and a curious juvenile. We were positioned so intimately close to them that our zoom lenses were rendered unnecessary, allowing for an incredibly personal and humbling encounter. This experience was made even more astounding by the fact that just the night before, we had a similarly close and powerful encounter with a pair of black rhinos right next to our vehicle. These moments of being so profoundly immersed in their world will forever be etched in our minds.

Our driver and guide, Solomon, was nothing short of extraordinary. His unwavering passion, encyclopedic knowledge, and relentless dedication to ensuring we experienced the very best of the wilderness shone through every single day. Solomon worked tirelessly, tracking subtle signs, interpreting animal behaviors, and masterfully maneuvering our vehicle to grant us unparalleled photographic opportunities and breathtaking views of the vast array of wildlife. He truly possessed a sixth sense for locating the animals, transforming each drive into a magical adventure. There were countless times we found ourselves pinching ourselves, utterly mesmerized, convinced we were dreaming, such was the closeness and intimacy of our encounters. He didn't just drive us; he guided us into the very heart of the wild.

The memories forged on this incredible journey will undeniably stay with us for a lifetime. We are eternally grateful to Steve for his meticulous orchestration of our dream itinerary and to Solomon for his exceptional skill and passion in "making it all happen" so magnificently. Thank you, from the deepest corners of our hearts, for an unparalleled adventure.

Linda, Jo and Laurie
