Rush Safari to Masai Mara
5/5

I had the chance to visit Masai Mara last month and as I was short of time it was difficult to find an agency that offers a 2 days trip from Nairobi. Explorers Wild Adventures was the only one I could find. And not only that, they gave me the best guide/driver ever, George, that was really gentle, supportive, great driver and enthusiastic about finding animals. He knew a lot about wild life and was always willing to respond my infinite questions about the Savana!
I seriously recommend George as your driver for your next safari in Kenya!

5/5

Nice trip
We had such a wonderful experience with Explorers Wild Adventures. Starting from the operator (Joseph) the tour guide David were all very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and charismatic. We had a variety of fresh food and ate happily three times a day. The game drive were great too- we went to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli National Park. We saw all the big 5 animals including cheetahs. Our guide, driver and care taker was David. Due to David we had a great time. The car was 4x4 and very comfortable and ample water was provided daily. We lodged every night (though nicer lunch were possible). David took care of us like a family and due to his interest and zeal, he always made sure that we were able to see all kinds of Wildlife during our game drive. Highly recommend this tour company!. Once again a big shout out to our David a good human being. Respect.

Excellent. A Lifetime experience. I will recommend this company to all my friends!!
5/5

Our tour was 6 Days Camping Safari in Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli National Park, plus an additional Nairobi city tour for 2 days at an extra cost. The communication all along was smooth and precise. The company offered us many suggestions and alternatives and helped us to customize our Itinerary perfectly to our choice.

We were a group of 8 people and arrived at the Nairobi airport at different times. Our pickup was arranged properly without any concerns.
We were received by our captain/driver and tour guide David at the airport and right from the beginning he made us feel safe and comfortable. We had opted for a 4x4 Land cruiser, which was just the right fit, but the boot space in the Jeep is limited so its better to carry soft bags instead for large suitcases.

The 2 days Nairobi city tour was good and gave us some extra time to lose the jet lag and catch some good city vibes. Recommendation from Nairobi - the Giraffe center, Nairobi National park and the carnivore restaurant.

The trip to Masai Mara National park was great. We were able to see the Lion, Cheetah and Leopord all in the first 2 days. In Lake Nakuru we saw the Rhinos. In Amboseli we saw Lions and Elephants.

The Lodges - AA Mara Lodge in Masai Mara was good. The rooms were big and clean. Limited but good options at Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner. Only issue was the shower which was very slow and we had to waste the water for 10 mins before we got some hot water.

Sentrim Elementa Lodge was awesome. The rooms were big and clean. The food was excellent. The staff was very friendly. I recommend this lodge to everyone visiting the Lake Nakuru area.

AA Amboseli Lodge was okayish. The rooms or tents make a lot of Noise during high winds. The shower was very slow. The food was bad. If possible look for a better lodge only in Amboseli.

The Masai Village visit was not worthy of our time or money. Lake Naivasha Boat safari + Nature walk is a good deal. We enjoyed it.

Thank you David for showing us Kenya in your own way. We will cherish this trip forever.

The Tour went very smoothly and excellently
5/5

Our Safari experience was really good. By the end of the trip we got to see around 20 different kinds of animals and their activities. 1. The guide we got was excellent a. He patiently explained us so many informations about animals and their day to day activities, also he made sure we see all the activities of the animals including hunting. He also made sure we're comfortable with food, places and people.
2. Apart from Safari the stay was excellent. We loved the accomodations. Receptionists, Managers were very friendly.
3. Food was good in some places, in few places or was average.

One of the best experience
5/5

We were really excited to see Masai Mara and decided to opt for this company after reading all the reviews. We were given the best tour guide David. First two days we stayed in Nairobi and explored the city. David was kind enough to give us a lot of information about the city and it’ s culture. Later we started the safari and were mesmerized to see all the big 5 of Masai Mara on the first day itself. We had wonderful conversations with David, who was always full of energy to show us more of Masai Mara and explain about the animals. The stays provided by the company were excellent and David took real good care of us.

Great experience
5/5

We decided my partner and I to do the mid range luxury private 7 days tour, and we had a blast.
The contact with the agency was really easy and they helped us on every subject were also very flexibel.
We were a little surprise by the payment method as you can either pay in cash without fee upon arrival (depositi deducted) or do a money transfer for a fee. we were a little concerned as we had to send the money before the trip but they were happy to provide us with the confirmation of our accomodation bookings and we then transferred the money (just so you know this invludes a fee and we had to try on chrome and safari to make it work but the agency is legit which was our biggest concern).
Once we were there we had a great driver George we opted for the mini van which was perfect for us and George always gave his best to find all the animals possible and to have in general a great time. We learned a lot about the culture, the country and we saw all the big fives.
Concerning the accomodation we were quite happy given the price we have loved the sopa resort and the rest was always clean and the food and services very good.
We decided to do the visit of the Masai village and of the boat and were happy about it.
Finally they also organised for us a transfer in train to Mombassa and I would suggest anyone to do so at the end of the trip as it was very different and beautiful.
All in all we had a great time my partner and me and we would very much recommend this agency. We believe that we had the best experience for our money and came back very very excited.

Amazing! Zachary our tour guide was extremely knowledgable and pleasant.
5/5

The Safari itinerary was perfect for us.
We saw the big 5 on the first day of our trip.
Zachary our guide was extremely knowledgable and pleasant.
The staff at Wild Adventures were very responsive from the day we booked the trip regarding all our requests and questions. We even had issues with our flight being delayed and they helped us sort out an updated itinerary for our safari.
We felt very safe during the whole trip.
The price we paid was very competitive against other companies offering the same itinerary with the same hotels.
We highly recommend them and especially ask for Zachary to be your guide for a top experience.

Safari experience is higher than expectation
5/5

The safari with Explorers Wild Adventures is higher than our expectation. The experience in Kenya is amazing and unforgettable.

Our tour guide, David is nice, knowledgeable and helpful. In the game drive, David tried the best to discover animals for us. We saw many animals and many memorable scenes. David also shared a lot of information of animal, safari and Kenya to us. I will recommend Explorers Wild Adventures and David to my friends and family.

The accommodations are good. We feel welcome during the stay and the staff is helpful. Especially Lake Naivasha Sopa Lodge, beautiful environment, nice food, and we can closely see zebra and giraffe. Highly accommodated Lake Naivasha Sopa Lodge.
