Absolute unforgettable Safari-experience
5/5

If you want to have an unforgettable, once in a lifetime safari-experience of Kenia, go to Meektrails. We had a 4-day trip for our honeymoon from Nairobi to Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. The organization and communication worked perfect, we got picked up at our hotel and started the trip well prepared. Thanks to Paul for the great communication and organization upfront!
Thanks to our guide Josef, we found the perfect spots to see nearly every animal the kenyan wildlife will offer you. Hippo, Giraffe, Elephant, Pumba Lion, Cheeta…… Josef always found the best places to spot great animals and take some great shots. Also really interesting information about the history of kenya, the nowadays living and especially eating and specific information to plants and birds were provided by Josef.
Coming to the camps we were really flashed. Absolutely stunning tents in the wildness surrounded by great nature and also animals. We could see hippos or elephants directly from the dinner-table! Beneath great breakfast and dinner, Josef always found the best spots for lunch, sometimes directly in the wild under a shady tree.
100% 5-star rating from our side. Come to meektrails and have an unforgettable safari-experience!

Unforgettable Safari Adventure with Lucas in September 2024
5/5

My girlfriend and I recently had the privilege of going on a safari adventure in Kenya with Lucas as our guide, and it was an experience we'll never forget! We visited four incredible national parks and game reserves, including Amboseli, Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Hell's Gate (Lake Naivasha). Lucas's expertise and passion for wildlife conservation made each stop memorable.

From the majestic views of Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli to the endless plains of Maasai Mara, where we spotted the lion, elephant, buffalo, and rhinoceros, we were thrilled to see the Big Five (minus the elusive leopard, which remained a highlight of our trip). We were also thrilled to see the famous pink flamingos at Lake Nakuru, and the unique geological formations of Hell's Gate were a highlight.

Lucas's warm and engaging personality made us feel at ease throughout the trip. He was attentive to our needs, and his enthusiasm for the wildlife was infectious. We even visited a Maasai village and learned about their traditional way of life.

The tour was well-organized, with delicious meals and a focus on showcasing the best of Kenya's wildlife and culture. Overall, our safari adventure with Lucas was an unforgettable experience that we'll always treasure. If you're planning a trip to Kenya, I highly recommend Lucas as your guide - you won't be disappointed!

Cannot recommend them enough. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Very knowledgeable guide.
5/5

Had an amazing time with Meektrails. Done a 7 day Kenyan safari to Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, Hell’s Gate and Masai Mara. I have personally recommended this exact tour to many people since returning home. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and knew all the best spots to see all the wildlife, it’s almost as if he had a 6th sense to know where the animals were. Amongst all the many animals we saw, the highlights were seeing over 100 elephants, very rare black rhino’s and we even saw a successful lion hunt on 2 warthogs. The accommodation was good and the food was so amazing at every place we stayed. I would also recommend getting the land cruiser upgrade as a minimum and, if you have time, a hot air balloon ride over the Masai Mara as an extra.

Absolutely amazing experience!
5/5

Our 7 days / 6 nights Safari itinerary contained Tsavo national park, Lake Naivasha with boat and walking safari tour, Lake Nakuru reserve and Masai Mara.
Our guide Phillip fulfilled every expectations you could imagine. He was incredibly skilled at spotting wildlife and explaining to us all the details behind that animal. He has a wealth of knowledge and he also likes to play some trivia games with you while in the car.

We were lucky enough to see the Big Five - Phillip spotting skills were so amazing we got to see two leopards in two different parks. Also we got some rare findings as cheetah and a pack of African wild dogs!!!!

Victor, our booking consultant, was absolutely amazing. Communication was flawless, without any issues, and he helped us create a perfectly tailored itinerary.

We enjoyed an unforgettable 7 days full of safari, education, and learning a lot about the local life of the natives. We highly recommend Meektrails and would gladly return for another adventure!

Incredible team to craft your very own Safari
5/5

I and my husband had a wonderful 6 days private Safari in Kenya with Meektrails.

Communication with Charles, our Safari tour crafter, was on point: reliable and quick by email or WhatsApp, always professional and polite, efficiently flexible to our specific needs and requests. [Note: As LGBT travellers in a non-friendly country, they succeeded in finding the most appropriate accommodation as possible (only one hotel provided separate single beds)]. Also, more than 2 days safaris can be very expensive and payments can be tricky to achieve if you've never done it before. In our case, Meektrails quickly did provide enough proof to ensure the safety of the transactions. Everything went smoothly and safely.

As we arrived in Nairobi, all the team was there to pick us up : manager, tour guide and tour crafter. It was good to put faces on people you only communicate with online.

Habil was our tour guide for 6 days. He made our Safari memorable. He's very cheerful, friendly and always on time. He's very knowledgeable on the animals in the parks and knows how to find them (we ticked all big 5 and even more: black rhino, leopards, elephant, buffalo, Lion.)
Also, we've really appreciated our time spent with him discussing about local culture and travelling in Africa in general. We were glad to have him as our guide.

In short, thank you very much Meektrails for your service. We will never forget our Safari trip and for sure we recommend to anyone looking for crafting a Safari in Africa.

Trip of A Lifetime
5/5

We had the most amazing week long Safari trip. Which was in large part due to our incredible driver and guide Joseph. Joseph provided us with the trip of a lifetime. He was professional, informative and an over all great time. He answered all our questions about Kenya, the different parks and all the animals. Joseph shared with us that he had been a guide for around 20 years and his experience really shown through, especially when it came to spotting animals that were not in plain sight. He made sure we got all the best pictures, listened to what animals we were most interested in seeing and made sure that he prioritized getting us to those animals. We would highly recommend booking Meektrails Safari company and definitely ask for Joseph! Jess and Jordan :)

Amazing experience
5/5

We had a truly wonderful trip. The places we stayed at were quiet and amidst nature. The trip was very varied, with different daily activities and nature parks. Our guide and driver, Joseph, made this trip unforgettable. His kindness and help come with a deep knowledge of and passion for all the nature and animals we encountered. On top of that, he was a cautious and safe driver. We opted for a 5-day trip, but regretted not making it longer, and hope to return. Also, Diana was very responsive to our questions. The trip clearly exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend Meektrails Safari.

Meektrails has an excellent customer service and you can feel that the client is very important.
5/5

We have really enjoyed the time in Kenya, everything was absolutely fantastic and the people were very kind with us.
Thanks to our guide Philip, we had a fantastic week. He gave us the opportunity to see the big 5 during the amazing safaris, so we could not thank him enough. He tried to explain us the Kenyan culture and how to approach the nature and the life with the Kenyan vibes. We have felt safe every second, and the company sorted out all our requests in seconds. Pauline from Meektrails, has been very kind and professional from the first moment we decided to book the holiday 6 months ago.
As a first time safari travellers, I can’t recommend Merktrails, Philip and Pauline more. Asante Sana.

Meektrails Safaris provided an excellent safari!
5/5

Meektrails Safaris provided an incredible experience for myself, my husband, and our friend. George was our guide, and I could not speak more highly of him. He was professional, communicative and highly knowledgable about not only the animals and questions we had on the safari, but also about Kenya and Kenyan culture. Eliud was very helpful in terms of accommodating our last minute requests and changes. The safari exceeded our expectations and I would definitely recommend Meektrails and George to any of my family and friends.
