Fantastic service and an unforgettable experience
My fiance and I had a great experience with the tour company. We read through hundreds of options, and given how expensive safaris can be and how variable our friends' experiences had been, we were worried the trip might not be worth the money. I can say that the trip absolutely was worth it! The 6-day tour was a great option, as we had time in four of Kenya's most important parks (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli). We did a private tour, which we highly recommend given that you will always want to stand up and move around the car as you follow the wildlife around, and then you can move at your own pace. If you only had time for one, Masai Mara is the one to do. We opted for the van, which was cheaper, and never had one issue (this may have been different if it were very rainy). We did all the add-on tours (apart from the far too expensive hot-air balloon), and all of them only made the experience more memorable (the boat tour was also a bit too pricey in our opinion, but it gives you access to the Lake Naivasha Nature Walk, which was beautiful and lets you get right up next to the animals with experienced naturalists who work there). The tour company was very communicative and helpful. Our guide/driver (Bernard) was absolutely fantastic, we cannot speak highly enough of him. He was positive, knowledgable, punctual and worked hard to make sure we saw as many animals as possible. Service, accommodations and food at the hotels we stayed at was exceptional, especially given that you are often in extremely remote parts of the country (remember to get your hands on small bills of Kenyan shillings! It wasn't too bad, but the hotel workers were a bit intense about trying to get tips, and we didn't have the cash for it at first).
It is hard to comprehend just how many animals there were just there right in front of us, living in their natural habitat. We saw dozens of species up close (elephants, giraffes, birds, lions, hippos, cheetahs, rhinos and more). Having an attentive, communicative guide/driver who is talking with the other drivers about where everything is in the park is important as these parks are huge. Given that it is nature, it's impossible to guarantee seeing everything, but at least in January of 2025, we saw just about all there was to see.

Beyond expectations adventure in wild and magical Africa!
Explorers Wild Adventures was very professional from handling of the booking to the actual days of the safari. They were very clear of what to expect but when we were there in the safari, it surpassed all our expectations. The major key of the success of any safari is really the driver/guide. We were fortunate to have Zachary as our driver/guide. He was very experienced and well connected with the other guides in all the parks (Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboselli) we visited. On our first day of the seven day safari, we already saw the big 4 (elephants, lions, leopards and african bulls) out of the big 5 animals. We saw rhinoceros in Lake Nakuru. It was a good decision for us to book for luxury lodges. The facilities were impressive and the rooms had the necessary amenities and quite big for the 3 of us. All lodges had swimming pools and spas plus the food buffet were quite delicious and varied in choices. We just regretted not doing the hot air balloon experience at Amboselli. It would have been very magical with Mt. Kilimanjaro as the background. The Kenyans are very hospitable and kind people which made our experience a little more meaningful. We are so looking forward to our next safaris in other parts of Africa!

Perfect Safari Trip with Stunning Wildlife
Our safari experience was nothing short of amazing! From the start, our guide impressed us with his deep knowledge of the animals, their behaviors, and the local culture. His engaging storytelling and keen eye for spotting wildlife made every moment unforgettable.
The lodges we stayed in were not only beautiful but also ideally located to maximize our game drives during sunrise and sunset. Waking up to the sounds of nature and heading out to see elephants, lions, and even witnessing a cheetah on the hunt up close was a dream come true. Each drive was thrilling, and the breathtaking scenery made it even more magical.
The hospitality at the lodges was exceptional. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring that every detail of our stay was taken care of. From delicious meals to personalized service, they went above and beyond to make us feel at home. This trip exceeded all our expectations and will remain a cherished memory for years to come.

A Dream Safari Come True in Kenya!
Our Kenya safari with Explorers was beyond expectations! Our guide, Peter, was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure we saw everything from lions to rhinos up close. The lodges were luxurious and offered breathtaking views of the savannah. Each day was a new adventure, and we felt completely safe and well taken care of. The staff were friendly and attentive, making our stay unforgettable. I can't recommend this experience enough!

Well organised, great guide!
We had an amazing time during our 7 day tour including Masai Mara, Nakurua,Naivasha and Amboseli. Accommodation was well organised, food was good, enough water, park fees and excellent guide.
We travelled with a family of 7 ages 7 to 75 and everyone had an unforgettable safari.
Asanti Sana!

A trip to remember
Pickup from hotel was smooth and on time, communication via WhatsApp. George the driver and guide with more than 20 years experience really made the trip memorable. He knew where to spot wildlife before other vehicles did. The first full day in the Mara, 4 of the Big 5 were spotted due to his expertise. Glad I booked the jeep, very roomy and the best option for the rugged terrain. All lodges visited were great, food was buffet style., accommodations comfortable. Amboseli could do with a little touchup. Thanks again George.

Best tour operator
We went on the "5-Day Masai Mara-Lake Nakuru-Lake Naivasha & Hells Gate" private tour option Jeep 4*4 with Explorers wild Adventures and we could only recommend it. Johann the operation manager has been helping us, planning and tailoring our trip providing us all information we needed. Johann also helped us with the online pre-payment which did not go through straight away as blocked but after calling our bank it worked well! Once we arrived we met KennetH, who has been an amazing guide, always in a great mood and answering every single question we had about the Kenyan culture and animals. Kenneth was also incredible to spot the Big 5! Already on the first game drive evening we saw many animals including 4 of the Big 5.
It was our first safari and could not have wished for more ! We definitely recommend Explorers Wild Adventures for a Safari in Kenya and would reserve again with them for the next one !

Remarkable Safari
I joined a 7-day private safari tour. Our driver and guide, Zachary, was very kind and managed the time according to our preferences.
During the safari, we were able to see all the animals we wanted to see.
Thank you for the wonderful safari experience provided over these 7 days.

Great, attentive, friendly and helpful
The 7days six nights safari was once in a lifetime experience for me and really worth for the money. Staff of the company were helpful and communicated well with us. Our driver and guide Zachary was very friendly and cheerful. He made sure everything was fine and well prepared for us during the trip. He provided us a lot of information and tried to find us as many wildlife as possible . We were very happy and thankful for all the help and arrangement.
