Amazing Kenya Safari with Meektrails and our wonderful guide, Onesmas
In August 2025, we traveled from California to Nairobi for our long-awaited first African safari—and it was everything we dreamed of and more. After thorough research, we chose Meektrails, and they exceeded our expectations in every way.
Over 8 days, we explored Amboseli National Park, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and the Masai Mara in a super-comfortable 4x4 jeep. Our guide, Onesmas, was incredibly knowledgeable about the parks, wildlife, and trails. He made the journey feel so personal and special that I found myself in tears when saying goodbye to him at the Masai Mara airport.
Witnessing the animals in their natural habitat was a life-changing experience, and the memories will stay with us forever. I wholeheartedly recommend Meektrails to anyone considering an African safari and searching for a truly outstanding tour company.

Highly recommended for wildlife enthusiasts
Meektrails got us all covered with arrangements for good accommodations and enjoyable activities we could have asked for during our first-ever trip to Kenya.
Our guide, Joseph, handled everything well from start to finish. What we like most about him is that he managed to answer all the questions asked about wildlife, culture and the way of life in Kenya.
To us, being a tour guide is being knowledgeable. It is of paramount importance. We would never forget how much we learned from Joseph's quizzes about animal identification and behaviors throughout the 8-day journey with him. We surely request him again for our future trip to Kenya and we will make sure he also takes us to Samburu.
We would like to thank Meektrails Safaris for the memorable trip. And yes, if you are a wildlife safari geek, we highly recommend this tour operator. We do hope that you would have so much fun like we did.
Cheers !!!

Meektrails tour operator was extremely easy with planning and accommodating our itinerary.
I highly recommend Meektrails Safaris after our incredible 10-day safari in Kenya. Gadson made the communication and itinerary planning seamless, answering all questions via email, WhatsApp, and phone calls. The lodging far exceeded expectations for the price, and I'll provide more details. Upon arrival at Nairobi airport, I was met by Gadson, Daniel (Meektrails’ owner), and Ben, our fantastic driver and guide for the entire trip. Ben was an excellent driver and guide, navigating the parks safely and positioning us perfectly for wildlife sightings.
Our private safari allowed us flexibility, with a jeep to ourselves, snacks, and an electric cooler. We stayed at the Mtito Hotel tented camp, which was peaceful, scenic, and overlooked a river where we saw giraffes, monkeys, and antelope. We felt very safe with security on-site every night. In Masai Mara, Ben captured amazing lion sightings, including one where we watched a lion feast on a wildebeest. Ben's expert positioning allowed us to see leopards and cheetahs up close.
Next, we stayed at Sopa lodges in Nakuru and Naivasha. At the Naivasha resort, hippos swam right past our balcony, and we saw zebras, giraffes, and antelope wandering the property. A giraffe even sat on the path outside the lobby after dinner.
In Amboseli, Ben expertly navigated rough, unpaved roads. We had an unforgettable evening game drive with elephants at sunset, and the next day we saw more wildlife, all with Mount Kilimanjaro in the backdrop.
We ended in Tsavo West and East. The Ngulia Lodge at Tsavo West was a bit outdated but had incredible views of elephants, buffalo, and antelope. At Manyatta Tented Camp in Tsavo East, we had a private pool overlooking the park, where zebras, elephants, and monkeys were just feet away. Ben took us to a spot where we watched elephants bathing in red mud—an unforgettable experience.
Our safari exceeded all expectations, with rare wildlife sightings, including the Big 5, white rhinos, and the elusive black rhinos. Meektrails was accommodating every step of the way, from planning to transport. After the safari, Gadson arranged our travel to Baobab Beach Resort at Diani Beach, with seamless pickups and drop-offs, including a train and flight back to Nairobi. I highly recommend Meektrails for an unforgettable safari experience.

Unforgettable 8-Day safari with Meektrails and our incredible guide
We had an 8-day, 7-night safari organized by Meektrails, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. The team was responsive, professional, and extremely helpful throughout. The pricing was very reasonable, especially considering the excellent service we received throughout the trip. Every aspect of the journey, from the itinerary and accommodations to logistics and vehicle condition, was thoughtfully planned and executed.
A special shoutout goes to our guide, James, who truly made this trip exceptional. He is not only friendly and professional, but also incredibly knowledgeable about wildlife. James went above and beyond every day, putting in great effort to track animals and ensure we had the best possible sightings. We wholeheartedly recommend Meektrails and we’re already thinking about our next trip to Kenya.

Unforgettable Safari with a Professional & Reliable Team
We joined an 8-day/7-night safari with Meektrails and it was fantastic! The service was professional, reliable, and very friendly from start to finish. Hotels and activities — including game drives, a boat safari at Lake Naivasha, cycling in Hell’s Gate, and visiting a Maasai village — were well arranged and smooth.
Our guide James was polite, knowledgeable, and passionate, which made the trip even more special. We truly enjoyed our first Africa experience and highly recommend Meektrails for a safe and unforgettable journey.

Exceptional Safari,
Booking my 10 day safari with Meek Trails was not only seamless from start to finish, but the level of professionalism is not to be beat. My consultant Victor added many personal touches. Taking the time to send me many swahili words and I phrases, to sending a video to increase my excitement.
Joseph my guide- what can I say? He is an exceptional storyteller, teacher, guide, Kenyan historian, and has become a friend. Traveling solo can be fun and difficult at the same time. Joseph never rushed, always looked out for my comfort and safety. He was in awe as much as I was and took extreme interest in everything we came across. It so clear how much he loves his country and being a safari guide. No matter where we went people knew him and loved him. I highly recommend Meek Trails. Meek Trails helps you to always feel home.

Fabulous Kenya with George
My friends and I had a wonderful 7 days experience in Kenya with Meektrails. In the 7 days, we covered Amboseli Park, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Maasai Mara.
The tour would never have been the same without our fantastic guide George! Not only was he knowledgeable on the different animals terrains and tribes, the rides were also filled with laughter with his witty jokes and stories
What stood out for me was how professional he was in navigating our way in the park, making new plans when faced with bad weather and always making us feel safe with him around!
Apart from that, he is a really genuine person with good moral values that shine when faced with situations.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, not only did we get to see the famous Big 5, we saw the Magnificent 7 in action and even the Ugly 5!!
If you plan to explore Kenya, please look for GEORGE!

An unforgettable safari experience
We had the most incredible time on safari with Meektrails! From start to finish, everything was seamless and unforgettable.
Gadson organised our trip and from our very first contact, he was responsive, helpful, and made sure every detail of our trip was tailored to our needs.
We were especially lucky to have Manu as our guide—he was not only attentive to all our requests, but also an exceptionally safe and skilled driver. His ability to spot wildlife was second to none, and he kept our kids (aged 10 and 12) fully engaged and entertained, even during the longest drives. He is true professional with a warm heart!
The accommodation was perfect—comfortable with a little luxury and exactly what we had hoped for. We especially loved our stay at Mara River Camps, and the surprise upgrade was a bonus!
This was a trip of a lifetime, and we’ll be recommending Meektrails to everyone we know. Thank you so much for giving us memories we’ll treasure forever.
Meektrails is truly the BEST! 🏆❤️
