Meticulous attention to maximizing our experiences
From start to finish of our 2-week safari in Kenya, Twiga treated us royally. No worries on arrival or departure at the airport & Nairobi hotels.
Our guides, Nico and Alex, saw to it that we had detailed updates of our fun-packed itinerary at each stage. They continually sought out the best viewing times and places for all the animals and birds, using their deep knowledge and experience to explain what we were seeing. They got us close enough for great photo ops whilst respecting the animals’ space.
The accommodations at each step of our 7- location vacation were amazing - food was wonderful and staff were extremely helpful and engaging at each place. Each conservancy we visited provided contrasting opportunities for viewing wildlife and our travels took us through communities where we could view local customs and lifestyles.
We had an opportunity to interact with villagers in Samburu which became a highlight of our trip. Such interesting people taking the time to explain their daily lives and their ambitions.
We felt safe and cared for at every step of the trip. My son and I were part of a 7-person tour group from BC Canada & I can honestly say that we feel lucky and blessed to have been with the other 5 and with our two guides for those two weeks.
Considering the huge benefits and pleasure we derived from our experience, I have no hesitation in fully endorsing Twiga and reporting that value for money was not an issue.
Thank you Twiga

Highly professional team with very knowledgeable safari guides who deliver a great safari experience
We had a great safari to the Masai Mara with Twiga Tours. Our driver Ken is thoroughly knowledgeable and is spectacularly good at spotting wildlife at long distance and in thick scrub where at first it is barely visible. We saw almost everything it is possible to see in the, many groups of elephants and prides of lion, leopard, cheetah, hippos, buffalo, all the species of antelope, beautiful groups of giraffe, as well as hyenas and jackals!
This was our third Twiga Safari and I have to say we will definitely be back for more - the office team are highly professional, but above all the three driver guides we have had have each been very strong and knowledgeable (as well as amazing designers vers who have navigated us through some quite challenging terrain!
On this trip I’d also like to give a big shout out to the Mara Maisha Lodge - the accommodation was top notch and very comfortable, the staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was amongst the best we have had at then numerous game lodges we have stayed at over many years.
