Truly Outstanding Safari with meektrails!
5/5

This was our first trip to Kenya, and after considering many options, we’re so glad we chose Meektrails. From the outset, they stood out for their attention to detail, fast communication, and tailored approach. Our coordinator Charles was brilliant—always helpful, proactive, and in regular contact before and during the trip to ensure everything went perfectly.

We did a 13-night safari and beach combo: 7 nights on safari (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli), followed by 5 nights in Diani and a final night in Nairobi. Every detail, including all transfers, was handled seamlessly.

Our safari guide Peter was the heart of the trip. Incredibly knowledgeable and warm, he brought the journey to life—not just through amazing wildlife sightings but by sharing insights into Kenya’s culture and history. He seemed to have a sixth sense for animal behaviour and always positioned us perfectly for the best views. Thanks to him, we had unforgettable encounters with the Big Five (including a leopard), the “Ugly Five,” and much more. It felt like we were on safari with a friend rather than just a guide.

On our last day, Charles arranged a last-minute game drive in Nairobi National Park with another fantastic guide, Habil, where we were lucky enough to spot a black rhino—the perfect way to end the trip.

If you’re unsure who to book with—go with Meektrails. They genuinely go above and beyond. We couldn’t recommend them—or Peter—more highly.

Unforgettable Kenya Safari with Meektrails & Jackson
5/5

Just came back from the most unforgettable safari in Kenya with Meektrails and our amazing driver guide Jackson — truly a trip of a lifetime!

Before the trip, Charles from Meektrails was nothing short of amazing. Super responsive (even picking up our call at 1am when our airport pickup failed!), always patient, and very detail-oriented. When our travel dates had to shift from October to June on short notice, Charles reworked the entire itinerary smoothly, suggesting great hotels based on what we needed—even Wi-Fi quality! When a hotel ran out of rooms due to our delay, he came back with a better option at the same price. He also included thoughtful touches like the Giraffe Centre and Carnivore Restaurant. Everything was covered in a single package (except tips), making the whole experience stress-free.

During the trip, we were in the excellent hands of Jackson, our driver guide. Always punctual, kind and attentive—especially to our elderly mum, helping her in and out of the jeep every day. He was constantly tuned in to the guide radio and chatted with other drivers to track animal sightings. We loved that he took quieter routes, letting us enjoy intimate moments with the animals without the crowd. Thanks to him, we saw 4 different lion prides, a cheetah enjoying a fresh topi kill, rare black rhinos, and completed both the Big 5 and Ugly 5! One of the highlights? He messaged us at 3.25PM to leave early due to possible rain—by the time we exited the hotel gate, a leopard was spotted and he rushed us there just in time! Jackson also had a great eye for photo angles, and kept checking on us (even though he had the tougher job driving long hours). His passion for wildlife and pride in Kenya really shone through.

From start to finish, Meektrails delivered a well-organised, heartwarming and adventure-filled trip. Highly recommend Charles and Jackson—you will be in the best hands! 🇰🇪🧡

Meektrails offers seamless, personalized safaris with warm service and expert guides
5/5

We had an exceptional 7-day safari experience in Kenya with Meektrails, covering Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and the Masai Mara. From start to finish, the communication was clear, timely, and professional. Peris, the main point of contact, was consistently helpful and responsive throughout the planning and trip.

On arrival, a personal welcome and thoughtful gift set the tone for the journey. The itinerary was well-organized, and the accommodations were comfortable—two of which were generously upgraded, adding a special touch. The guide, Julius, was knowledgeable, patient, and a pleasure to travel with.

Meektrails delivered outstanding value for money, with reliable logistics, personalized service, and genuine care for their guests' comfort. The experience was seamless and deeply memorable. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an authentic and well-curated Kenyan safari

An Unforgettable Safari with the One and Only George – A True Master of the Wild!
5/5

We’ve just returned from a breathtaking 5-day safari through Kenya, covering Nairobi, the legendary Masai Mara, and the serene Lake Naivasha — and the experience was nothing short of extraordinary, all thanks to our tour guide, George.

Let me start by saying: if you ever get the chance to have George as your guide, consider yourself very lucky. He’s the kind of guide everyone wants — and for good reason. In fact, we were surprised (and grateful) to find him available, because with the level of experience, effort, and results he brings to the table, we’re sure he’s one of the most in-demand guides in Kenya. Even inside the park, we overheard and noticed other drivers admiring his skills — asking him for directions, following his lead, or simply acknowledging that “George knows what he’s doing.”

And oh, does he ever. While most cars just circle around hoping for sightings, George works differently. With his sharp eye and deep understanding of animal behavior, he doesn’t just follow — he anticipates. He reads the landscape and the animals like a book. He notices the tiniest signs — the direction an animal is looking, blood on their face, a flick of the ear, or tension in their posture — and within minutes, he’s taking us to exactly where the action is about to happen. Time and again, we were among the first at sightings, with other vehicles trailing behind once they realized George was onto something special.

Thanks to him, we saw it all — and most of it on the very first day! A leopard resting on a tree, male and female lions (some alone, others in a pride), a pride preparing for a hunt, three cheetahs on the move, a dramatic chase, hyenas scavenging, majestic elephants, huge buffalos, elegant giraffes, zebras, impalas, antelopes, and an incredible variety of birds. It felt like a week’s worth of sightings packed into a single magical day — a true testament to George’s expertise and intuition.

He’s not just doing a job — he’s living his passion, and it shows in every moment on the safari.

Beyond the park, George continued to shine. His friendly and warm personality extended into the lodges we stayed at. After a long day on safari, if we ever had an issue — whether it was with the room, a late-night request, or any inconvenience — George would immediately take charge. He’d call reception on our behalf and ensure the matter was resolved, no matter what time of night it was. His sense of responsibility and genuine care went above and beyond what anyone could expect from a guide.

Our journey wouldn’t have been possible without Meektrails, the tour company that coordinated everything perfectly. From the first moment, they impressed us with their professionalism and efficiency. We spoke to Daniel and Peris, who were incredibly responsive and helpful. Our initial call with them lasted barely 10 minutes, and within 30 minutes, we had everything sorted — the itinerary confirmed and the payment done. With other companies, we weren’t comfortable moving forward so quickly, but with Meektrails, it just felt right — and it absolutely was.

So thank you, Meektrails, Daniel, Peris, and most importantly George, for making this the trip of a lifetime. You gave us memories that we’ll be talking about for years.

If you’re planning a safari in Kenya, don’t leave it to chance. Ask for George. If he’s available, book him immediately. You won’t regret it.

Wonderful Kenya Safari Experience with Meektrails
5/5

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Meektrails!
Our journey with Meektrails Safari in Kenya was nothing short of exceptional! From the seamless booking process to the warm airport welcome, every detail was handled with professionalism and personal care. Our guide, Onesmus, was highly skilled, flexible, and incredibly knowledgeable, making our adventure even more special. His deep understanding of wildlife and expert navigation ensured we had the best views and experiences throughout the trip.

The accommodations across Amboseli, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Masai Mara felt truly royal, adding luxury to the breathtaking wilderness. Our family enjoyed the comfort of a spacious Land Cruiser, perfect for the safari experience. Seeing the Big Five—especially lions up close—was simply thrilling. The African Savannah, the scenic picnic under the tree while baboons played nearby, and every moment in between made this trip unforgettable.

Meektrails Safari delivered an outstanding experience that we will cherish forever.
Onesmus truly made our trip extraordinary with his expertise, warmth, and dedication.

Highly recommended!

Great family owned safari operator
5/5

We had a great time on our 6 day safari with meektrails and our guide Peter. They really took care of everything! We can definitely recommend the company for the safari!

Minor point: Recheck the car you booked (we got a 4x4 van and not a 4x4 jeep with big windows and were just not aware of it). Was still fine overall!

It's a very reliable travel agency
5/5

It's a very reliable travel agency. After comparing several agencies, I found that its price is the most affordable. They arranged two tour guides for us in Amboseli and Maasai Mara respectively, namely Anthony and Philip. They each have their own characteristics, are conscientious and responsible, and both helped us find the animals we wanted to see.
