Excellent
David Njoroge was a great tour guide. His knowledge of the Kenyan Culture, Geography, all the places we visited - Maasai, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha was top class. Having been an ex veterinarian, he had good knowledge of the animals with the Game Reserves as well. Highly recommend Unscripted Yours and David Njoroge.

Unforgettable experience!
Our family recently completed a safari with Unscripted Safaris, and the experience exceeded all expectations.
From the very beginning, Lewis was highly professional, responsive, and helpful throughout the planning process. He patiently answered all our questions, accommodated our requests, and ensured that every detail of the trip was well organized.
A special thank you goes to our guide, David, who truly made our safari unforgettable. Traveling with a toddler can be challenging, but David went above and beyond to accommodate our family's needs. He was flexible with schedules, patient, and always made sure we were comfortable while still providing an incredible wildlife experience.
David's knowledge of the Masai Mara, wildlife behavior, and local ecosystem was exceptional. He was able to spot animals from remarkable distances and shared fascinating information throughout the journey. His professionalism, safe driving, and friendly personality made us feel at ease at all times.
We highly recommend Unscripted Safaris to anyone looking for a well-organized, professional, and family-friendly safari in Kenya. We would not hesitate to book with them again in the future.
Our operator and driver was David. It was great. He knew all the tricks to get the best views
Our 1-day stay felt like a week long adventure, all thanks to our driver, David. He was fantastic, friendly and highly attentive. He knew all the tricks to maximize our time and ensured we saw every animal possible.
The Little Zebra hotel was top. The staff was incredibly kind, the location is beautiful and you can even spot crocodiles right from the terrace tables while you relax. 10/10 experience
An out-of-this-world experience thanks to David! 1000% recommended
Our time in Masai Mara was truly incredible, literally from another planet! A huge part of that was our guide, David. His dedication and attention to detail were wonderful; he went above and beyond every single second to make sure we had the absolute best time. He truly gave us one of the greatest experiences of our lives. I recommend him and Unscripted Safaris a thousand percent!

Fantastic experience with Unscripted Safaris
I had an outstanding experience with Unscripted Safaris on their Nairobi safari tour. From start to finish, everything was well organized, seamless, and enjoyable.
A special thank you to Davis, who was an exceptional guide. He was friendly, professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about sharing information about the wildlife. His expertise made the experience both educational and fun, and he went above and beyond to ensure I had a memorable visit.
The airport pickup and hotel drop-off were smooth and convenient, and the entire tour felt personalized and stress-free.

Exceptional!
3-day, 2 Nights Maasai Mara Safari (Royal River Zebra Camp)
Communication: Communication with Lewis was mostly easy, reliable and fairly quick. He accommodated all of my requests without issues. We even got a complementary visit to the Giraffe Center.
Transport: We were taken to Mara by a normal car with a kind and friendly driver (Nicholas), we didn't know any details beforehand. He was an excellent driver but the roads to Mara are horrible - the ride took ages and it was quite exhausting; I would highly recommend taking the 4x4 wheel jeep! On the way back we were taken with the Safari Jeep with our guide and the difference was extreme (took us 2h less).
Guide: Our guide David was exceptional! Funny, clever, kind and highly competent! He easily accommodated all of our wishes (safari times, animals we liked to see) and showed us awesome hidden gems. He could answer all of our questions, always tried to get us the best spots at crowded places and communicated a lot with other guides and rangers to offer us a variety of sightings. We saw all of the animals imaginable (Leopard, Cheetah, Lions, Elephants, Giraffes, Zebras, Hippos, Crocodiles...) - only one missing was a Rhino which is very hard to find. We even did a short walking tour with a separate guide on the Mara River to see the Hippo Families and the crocodiles up close. Sunrise and Sunset game drives were incredible! On our way back to Nairobi we even stoped to have some Nyama Choma for lunch. We got along quite very well, it nearly felt like traveling with a friend! :)
Accommodation: We booked Zebra Plains Mara Camp which belongs to a company that has 8 different camps in close proximity. However, we were upgraded to Royal River Zebra Camp - it was unbelievable. This camp only hosts 25 people in total and is a true gem. Its close to a river so we also had the chance to spot animals right from the lodge. We saw a buffalo sleeping and a hippo grassing in the morning. We sadly missed the giraffes and the cheetah because we were out on a drive. We had an incredible "room" (it was basically an apartment). Spacious, calm, clean - an outdoor bathtub, an outdoor shower, a small cabana. The staff was also amazing - chatty, helpful and friendly at all times. Food is a set menu but there is a variety of different options and they were all very tasty!
Overall we couldn't be happier!!
