Amazing bucket list experience - 10/10!
5/5

We went on a three day safari with Meektrails, stayed at the Zebra Plains camp and were lucky enough to have Peter as our tour guide. The whole experience was beyond our expectations, truly exceptional from start to finish and we couldn't recommend it enough!

The booking process was very smooth, the cost reasonable, and the camp was great (and food was amazing!). The safari itself was just amazing, absolutely gorgeous and we got so close to all the animals.

Best of all though was our tour guide Peter who truly went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience. Knowledgable, polite, a safe driver, fun and super nice - highly recommend Meektrails and Peter! Thank you very much!

Trip of a lifetime
5/5

My partner and I had the Kenyan safari that we've dreamt about thanks to Meektrails. We did an 8 day tour with stops at Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Hell's Gate, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara.

Our tour consultant, Valentine, was friendly, quick to respond and always willing to help - despite our constant bombardment of questions leading up to the trip! She also offered a very good price which suited our budget while ensuring the best value and accommodation for our preferences.

Our guide Ben was an absolute legend! He was super knowledgeable, attentive and friendly. And best of all - he somehow managed to always get us really close to the animals even as the other Land Cruisers were crowding around. Ben really went above and beyond to make sure we got the most out of our game drives. We managed to see the Big 5 and so much more. We also lucked out and got a brand new Land Cruiser which was clean and comfortable.

Highly recommend Meektrails and we'll definitely be using them again when we come back to Kenya!

Falling in love with Africa
5/5

It was our first time in Africa and we would like to express our genuine gratitude to each and every person at Meektrails Safaris who made our first safari tour so memorable.
We had limited time to plan trip to Kenya and thanks to our tour consultant Eliud, it was enough to organize everything. He was very helpful and always timely addressed any questions we had while planning the tour. Eliud offered us different options and advised on what would be the best for us. Initially we had chosen 7-days safari tour but right before the start we asked to extend our stay at Maasai Mara and it was not a problem. Overall, the communication was very smooth and easy and we felt that Eliud was truly interested in making the tour enjoyable and convenient for us.
On top of that, we were lucky enough to have Michael as our driver and guide. Every game drive with him was a pleasure. Being experienced and knowledgeable guide he is also polite and nice person himself. From day one it was clear that he is passionate about what he is doing. Finding animals, explaining their behavior and way of living, drawing our attention to their distinctive features, advising on the best photo locations, etc. - he did all of these. He even had the book in the car which he used to address our most specific questions about animals. All in all, Michael provided so much useful information about Kenya and its wildlife making us fall in love with the nature of the country and forget about anything else for these 8 days. Moreover, knowing that animals are the most active in the morning and after the sunset we asked Michael to start our daily game drives as early as possible and he was fully supportive of this idea. He did his best to make sure we see the Big Five and more, constantly communicating with other tourist vehicles via radio and phone. It was also amazing that for the last day in Maasai Mara leopard was our only wish and thanks to Michael we were happy to see it!
One more thing to mention is accommodation. We were obsessed with the variety of African lodges that we had a chance to stay in. Everything was just perfect and very well organized!
We want to thank Meektrails Safaris for such an unforgettable experience and the best memories about our first safari tour.

I highly recommend Meektrails & Jasan Warui for your safari
5/5

My wife, two teenage sons, and I had an incredible 6 day safari with Meektrails. It was a great value and jam packed with experiences built into the package. Be prepared to rough it!

Additionally, I can’t say enough about our personal driver/guide Jasan Warui. He’s an amazing guide, and even better person. He took very good care of us, and if you request him you won’t be sorry!

A very reliable operator
5/5

I will definitely recommend Meektrails to my friends and you.
The Kenya flood happened during my trip in Kenya. Meektrails well managed the changes due to road damage to naivasha and recommend us to change another good & safe hotel due to the flood in masai mara. That makes me feel them very reliable.
Also, highly recommend my guild Gideon. He has very good knowledge on animals and history, also he has sharp eyes to find the animals. I really appreciate the detailed explanation during the trip, which helps me to understand the animal and history of beautiful Africa.

Reliable operator with solid team
5/5

We are tourists from China and we went for 8 days on great safari in May 2024. Our itinerary was tailor-made and flexible with Meektrails, which just made evrything amazing!!! The cousltant is Victor, he kindly replied all our questions by email, Whatsapp and Wechat. After we confirmed booking with Meektrails, Vcitor secured all the itinerary's details especially the accommodation.
Also highly recommend our guide/driver Eric, during our trip Eric told us lots of knowledge about animals. Eric is expert on searching animals with his hawk-eyes, although it's rain season, in Masai Mara Eric helped us find Bufflo, Lion,Elephant and Leopard!!!! In Nakuru Eric found both white and black Rhino!!!Besides we watched Lion vs Hyena in Nakuru which was unbelievable!!!

Anyway, 5 stars with Meektrails, definitely recommend and hope u all enjoy the adventure in Kenya.
