An excellent company with great prices
I have spent countless hours comparing safari companies' 6 and 7-day safari offers and found Meektrails' to be the best value. They have only had positive reviews so I put my trust in them and I am happy I did. Communicating with Daniel was easy and he was flexible when I had to change the starting day and change the number of travellers from two to four. Our tour was midrange, however, two of the lodges we stayed at I would rather describe as luxurious. We spent 6 nights on the safari visiting Amboseli NP, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara NP. Our driver, James was friendly and helpful. He explained everything about the animals we saw and he was always happy to answer our million questions. We opted for the pop-up roof minivan (as it was significantly cheaper than the Jeep-type cars) and were absolutely happy with our choice. The van had no problem whatsoever on the roads and the four of us got plenty of space to stand up, move around and even stretch out on the long drives. Our visit fell at the beginning of the rainy season but we were lucky and it never rained during our drives and the roads were not muddy.
We were happy with the food at all the accommodations. Two places offered a buffet with many options (including vegetarian meals) and two offered a la carte dining. Drinks were extra including water.
The game drives exceeded my expectations. We saw hundreds of zebras, buffalos, wildebeests and different types of antelopes, more than a hundred elephants and dozens of ostriches and giraffes in the four parks. We spotted hyenas and cheetahs at Amboseli and Maasai Mara and had two great lion encounters in Maasai Mara - on one occasion the lions were just eating a freshly caught buffalo. At Nakuru, we saw both white and black rhinos although they were very far in the distance. At Lake Naivasha, we got very close to many hippos and had a boat tour on the lake spotting many more.
If I ever go back to Kenya or visit Tanzania, I will certainly book with Meektrails again!

Flexible, reasonably priced & reliable
From the first time I contacted Daniel about my requirements he was very flexible and he did his best to meet my requirements even I've customized a lot in the schedule, and during the trip, all of our requirements were precisely followed with ZERO hassle.
The trip was reasonably priced compared to many other Safari companies and the accommodations were very good.
Our tour guide was Tony, he is a very likable and friendly person, he did his best to give us the best view of all animals and we managed to see the big 5 indeed as well as many other animals. However, the only negative point was that Tony didn't initiate by explaining stuff about animals to us and we had to keep asking him whenever we needed to learn more about something.
Overall I'm very satisfied with the trip and would totally recommend booking with Meektrails Safaris

Don't hesitate to book with Meektrails - fantastic value for your money!
What a fantastic experience!
From the first connecting e.mail with Daniel until being dropped off for our return flight with a heartfelt hug from James, we were treated like VIPs.
I was wary about booking with an agency outwith my own country - no need to be - we paid much less and had the same or maybe better experience than if I'd booked from home.
My friend and I had James and a 9 seater van to ourselves for a 13 day Kenyan safari. James was friendly, upbeat, knowledgeable and did his very best to find every possible animal. We saw them all!! His job was to keep us well looked after and happy and he certainly did that - and always with a smile too!
We opted for economical lodging and some were much nicer than we expected. Others were fine but you'd have the option to upgrade. Daniel stuck to our budget and we were thrilled with our trip. Hopefully this wasn't our last trip - if not, we'll be going with Meektrails again!

We stayed at marvellous camps in masai mara/serengeti/ndutu/ngorongoro crater/amboselli. some we requested, others daniel recommended. we were thrilled will all. the transportation was fantastic, the guides were excellent, reliable and knowledgeable. we emailed daniel back and forth several times while planning our trip- he answered our questions promptly and thoroughly, and helped us build a marvellous itinerary. A wonderful trip- we wouldn't change a thing, and I am happy to recommend daniel and meektrails to anyone booking a safari in kenya and tanzania.

Quickly but perfectionist
After 1,5 week the ultimate safari experience hosted by Meektrails Safari with our guide Anthony we can say we had an amazing time.
The contact before the trip was fast and good. At the trip self Anthony arranged everything for us. Problems we're solved perfect (like our luggage missed the flight, Anthony handled it well).
We saw the whole big five, and many other species in big numbers. The diversity of land we saw was beyond awesome.
Highly recommend
No words for how special this adventure was ❣️
Went to Kenia and OMG what an adventure! Hope I spell the names correct. Daniel (from Meektrail Safaris) arranged the planning. The communication was great (really fast and he did manage to adjust the program so it fits to our needs). At the airport we met Anthony. Our guide for the whole trip. We also met Daniel and we got an really nice hat to be ready for our adventure. Anthony is great. He knows a lot, makes sure we were good and we felt really safe (as two young womans). We felt so welcome! He also managed to get the luggage back after it missed the connecting flight.
About the safari itself. I don’t know what to say. Normally I do slow travelling and back to basic. This adventure was beyond all my expectations. We saw so many animals and it was so diverse. Like the northern light, you need to experience it. It is definitely worth it!!!

10/10 stars = once-in-a-lifetime-experience
We booked the following with Daniel: 5-Day Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara Budget (all inclusive, except soft drinks and alcoholic drinks). The accommodations were good, especially Fisherman's Camp we really liked, great location right on the lake, beautiful views. The program included all safari game drives, the boat tour and the walking safaris as well as food in the accommodations and as much water during the trips as you could drink. We have had breathtaking wildlife sightings and seen beautiful, lonely landscapes. Our guide Ben tried to make everything possible. He was friendly, helpful and attentive. He was also a careful, trustworthy and safe driver. Ben told us a lot about Kenya, the people, wildlife and nature. We have received a lot of interesting information. With Daniel himself, it was easy and straightforward to choose the right safari, discuss details and
and process the payment.
All in all a unique experience at a fair price. We can fully recommend Meektrails!!

Best safari memories you will never forget!
Having difficulty booking a safari in Kenya we somehow found Meektrails Safari online. Thank goodness we did as Daniel organized a 4-day Maasai Mara and lake Nakuru trip which included accommodation, all-inclusive meals, park fees and an experienced well-knowledgeable safari driver called John all at a great price. We could not have asked for a better professional experience.
John knew Maasai Mara national reserve as his home and knew all the best spots and areas to see the big 5 and other wild animals. We could ramble on and on describing all the features and story memories we will never forget about our experience with John.
Without any doubt, our recommendation is to go ahead with Meektrails Safari… It’s worth every penny spent. Thank you, John, for a great safari experience and Daniel for your wonderful service.
