An Epic Experience
5/5

My wife and I took a 7 day trip in October and we both agree it was one of the best experiences of our lives. I cannot say enough good things about Meektrails. After watching countless online videoos, I had narrowed down the potential tour operators to 3 and sent each an idea of what we wanted to do. Diana with Meek was first to respond, helpful and accomodating. As I continued to narrow down and fine tune locations and times, Diana was always the quickest and most responsive, so we chose MT and I am so glad. (She even helped us with accomodations in and out of the country.) The morning we set out, Mr. Meek, who started the company, Diana and our OUTSTANDING guide Dennis were all there. Dennis was incredible every day, every step of the way. Not only did he find the animals and get us in position, but he could also be a professional photographer. He showed my wife and I things on the 35MM and even the Iphone that we did not know, but he still took the best, most stunning pictures. Plus, he was an outstanding conversationalist, and not just animals, Kenya and Africa, but everything from international affairs to cars, from US/China trade to The Grand Tour. Fantastic guide and person in every way. Our flight out was very late, so he took an extra scenic route thru Nairobi and the three of us had dinner together. The accomodations MT booked were great, they supplied water, insulated water bottles and safari hats. As an example of their commitment to the customer, we had booked the mid-level accomodations, but along the way some guests a day ahead of us had a bad experience at one of them, so MT re-booked us into a high-level room at a different resort at no charge to make sure we did not experience whatever went wrong at our original location. If you want a pperfect safari experience, go with Meektrails!

Outstanding Service, Guide and Organization! Best Safari ever
5/5

We were very lucky to spend 7days/6 nights with Gideon as our guide and driver. From the moment we were picked up he was funny and engaging, gave us many insights and information about all the animals, even the birds, local life and kenya. He answered all of our questions and went above an beyond every single day.

He was very punctual which we really appreciated and never said no to any request.
Gideons passion for his job and the animals is greatly felt and makes the entire experience so much more special and always made sure we had a great view of the animals!

Charles organized and booked our tour and even organized some items we had forgotten to bring which was outstanding.

For our anniversary we got the most incredible upgrade and celebration and stayed in the most beautiful place we have every experienced, making us not want to leave.

We were very lucky to catch many special moments with the animals, mainly due to our amazing guide Gideon and the communication they have with other guides. But remember nature is unpredictable and you can never be sure what you will see and experience amd often times its all about being at the right place at the right time and having patience.

The only thing i would do differently next time is to add an extra day at the masai mara as it is sooo big and there is so much to see and I could never get enough of the animals and all the action.

We have been to over 90 countries, tried many different Tour guides and our expectation were quiet low as we had bad experiences in other African countries before but Meektrails and especially Charles and Gideon went above and beyond and made this trip one of our favorite experiences and one we definitely and without any hesitation recommend to anyone interested in doing a safari in Kenya.

Ps. Please don't forget to tip your guide well for all the hard work and long hours he puts in.

Incredible journey through Kenya wildlife
5/5

The safari experience was absolutely amazing and truly unforgettable. We’re especially grateful for Ben, our driver and ranger, whose deep knowledge and instinct for the savannah made all the difference. Thanks to him, we were able to spot incredible wildlife and learn so much along the way.
The hotel choices were also very much to our liking: welcoming staff, beautiful facilities and a great atmosphere that made the whole trip even more special.
Not to mention the flexibility and the ongoing support along the way. Not only the entire schedule was tailored to our preferences, but as the weather hasn't been kind for a couple days our plans got changed on the go so that we would not miss anything due to the unexpected rain.

Overall, we’re extremely thankful and will definitely recommend Meektrails Safaris to anyone planning a trip to Kenya!

Safari experience of a lifetime delivered!
5/5

Meektrails Safari organised a five day private tour, including Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and the Maasai Mara. We stayed at Sopa Lodges and Zebra Plains Camp and our driver, guide and mentor for the trip was the quite incredible James. Simply put, James's warm humour, brilliant driving, and unbeatable knowledge and experience, ensured that we had a fabulous week. There's a lot of driving in very challenging traffic, on often truly awful and dusty roads, but this never distracted from what was a once in a lifetime adventure. Thank you Meektrails for organsing our trip and for giving us James!

1. Super reliable from the operator Gadson with amazing arrangement of accommodation
2. Apart from the first day picking up service is not satisfying, the whole trip was amazing beyond our expectations, thanks to our amazing guide Carlos
3. Carlos is super professional, experienced and quite humorous. The most important, he is quite reliable and truly honest, making our trip more than worth. We were able to see the amazing animals, very happy talking to him about all the culture and experience here. We would definitely recommend our friends going with him again!!

For the moment we made the booking and paid the deposit. We feel genius, warm, and professionalism from. Meektrails team. Also the airport pick up on the first day wasn’t perfectly on time. We have to go with Uber. Everything else was wonderful..

Brilliant 6 day safari trip in Kenya
5/5

We had a brilliant 6 day safari trip around Kenya with a fantastic guide called Kennedy! Really friendly and knowledgeable and helped us see the most amazing wildlife and scenery. Company were really easy to work with (especially our contact Peris) and were able to customize our trip and adapt the itinerary to suit our needs. They were also very reasonably priced in comparison to more well known safari providers which was great for us but also helped provide a more authentic and local experience. Would highly recommend.
NB- if driving make sure you opt for the Toyota Land Cruiser upgrade as the roads and journeys would be very difficult in mini van.

Unforgettable Safari Experience
5/5

We have recently completed our safari experience, and it was a trip of a lifetime. We spent our 7 day trip in Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. The booking process with Charles was hassle free, and he was always on hand to answer any questions we had, as well as provide a massive help with our booking.
We arrived in Nairobi the night before, of which Charles also helped arrange a hotel. We were then met by both Charles and Daniel, as well as our tour guide for the week - Sammy.
He was incredible throughout our whole trip, providing fantastic knowledge of the safari animals and also helping us to learn a little bit of Swahili! He was second to none in spotting the animals and making sure we always had the best experience during our entire trip. We managed to get lucky on many occasions and come up close to most amazing animals - a once in a lifetime opportunity!
The food during all meal times were nice and catering to all, as well as the impressive facilities during each of our stays. We were celebrating our 1 year anniversary, and they even managed to provide us with a cake.
I can’t thank all at Meektrails enough, and it’s an experience I would 100% recommend to all. I would give 10 stars if I could!
