a very good experience and would definitely recommend it
Excellent service and a very well-organized trip. The team was responsive, professional, and helpful throughout. Simon always responds as detailed as possible. The guide driver Kaku is incredible in all aspects. Everything went smoothly and we had a wonderful experience. Highly recommended.

Very serious and responsible
The person in charge, Donnah, was very attentive and responsible, constantly monitoring our itinerary and travel experience throughout the safari.
Our local guide, Francesé, is highly recommended. She has a great sense of boundaries and is very keen on finding animals. She waited for us for a long time at the Marseille market on the last day, which was very kind of her.
Overall, it was an unforgettable safari trip ❤️

Amazing experience!
Extra Miles Unique Adventures provided an incredible experience! From the very first pick-up, they welcomed us like family, making us feel so special. The itinerary was amazing, and they arranged beautiful places to stay with amazing food. In planning the trip, they were quick to respond, providing great information. This was one of the primary reasons we selected them. During the five days, the driver, Felix, was fantastic, providing knowledgeable insights from his twenty years of experience. We appreciated his safe driving and his recommendations. I highly recommend Extra Miles - giving them all the stars!!!
Perfect travel
Salesman Simon is reliable and arranges our whole trip thoughtfully. Guide Ximeng is shy at first but extremely hard‑working. He locates various wildlife accurately and picks the best viewing spots for us all the time.
We visited Samburu, Nakuru, Masai Mara, Naivasha and Amboseli during the safari. We shared nice conversations around a campfire at night. I sincerely recommend this travel team.

The animals are very wonderful. Unforgettable days
The experience was excellent. Our driver, Simon, was fantastic. He speaks excellent Chinese, is a very nice and interesting person, and although he's an introvert, he even gave us Kenyan names. He's very responsible.

A wonderful and romantic trip
I trusted Extra‑Miles long before my trip even started. I had really pleasant conversations with Simon, the sales representative. We worked out our travel plan carefully every single day. He replied to my messages promptly even when it was very late in Kenya. He is sincere and hard‑working. I’m extremely grateful for his recommendations of such wonderful hotels and itinerary.
On our departure day, our flight left early in the morning. Simon waited for us ahead of time, which warmed my heart. He helped us get local SIM‑cards. I gave them small gifts from China, putting me in a great mood right at the start of the journey.
Our official tour kicked off on June 10. Our guide Ximeng was shy at first yet highly dedicated. We drove a long way to Samburu. The wildlife there was absolutely breathtaking. Ximeng introduced every animal to us. We spotted reticulated giraffes, Grevy’s zebras and rare lions. We were lucky enough to see four out of the big five within the first two days.
I have to mention how attentive Simon is. Whenever he got news of lions or leopards, he drove there at full speed. He could predict where the animals were heading, so our vehicle always got the best viewing spot. He even checked guidebooks to identify animals for us.
After staying two nights at the lovely Simba Hotel, we headed to Nakuru. The stunning Sopa Hotel relaxed all of us, surrounded by picture‑perfect scenery.
Later we travelled to the Masai Mara, Ximeng’s hometown and the biggest surprise of this trip. Thanks to him, we saw nearly all the famous lion prides. He parked properly for our photos and moved on quickly to look for more wildlife. Everything went perfectly.
Our next stop was Lake Naivasha. Our local agent Simon arranged a free boat cruise for us. Guide Ximeng toured Crescent Island with us and took excellent photos. I took plenty of precious pictures with animals together with him.
The final destination was Amboseli. Right now I am lying at the gorgeous Praro Hotel, gazing at Mount Kilimanjaro while writing this review. Last night we chatted with Ximeng around a campfire. He gave each of us four Kenyan‑style names, which was hilarious. We formed a close bond from spending whole days in the car together.
I will whole‑heartedly recommend everyone from Extra‑Miles to my friends, and I will choose this agency again myself. Special thanks to salesperson Simon and guide Ximeng. Hope we meet again someday.

Exceeded Expectations
We had an amazing experience with Extra Miles Unique Adventures! Joseph was fantastic to work with – he took the time to customize our Safari itinerary exactly to our preferences and was always quick to respond to emails, making the whole planning process, smooth and stress-free.
Our driver, Felix, was equally outstanding. He was very safe and skilled driver, and his knowledge of the area is impressive – he always seems to know exactly where to go to spot wildlife, which made our safari unforgettable.
I would definitely book with them again on my next trip to Kenya. Highly recommend!

Everything went smoothly.
We used Extra Miles Unique Adventures for our 10 day safari and everything went as planned. Our driver/guide Eric was the best. He was a very knowledgeable guide. We did see all of the Big 5 animals. We felt safe and in good hands threwout our tour. We would use them again without hesitation.
Professional, great communication
Even though we had to cancel our trip due to personal reasons I just wanted to take a minute to express how great Extra Miles was to work with from the planning stage till the very end (including the cancellation) . I had reached out to many different companies (as one does before booking) and Extra Miles stood out in every way. They worked my requests in seamlessly without adding unnecessary charges. Joseph communicated with me at every step, every iteration. He was so prompt with everything and made it seem so easy. Even the cancellation process was pain-free for me. They understood my concerns and worked really well with me. With the way they approached everything, I’m sure that the safari would have been amazing and very well planned too but unfortunately I couldn’t go to comment much on it. When we are back in future I wont think twice before booking with Extra Miles.
