Excellent Kenya Safari
We are finishing up a wonderful safari booked by Serengeti Clarity in Kenya, Tanzania and Zanzibar. They are based in Tanzania so they contracted Meektrails for the Kenya part.
Meektrails was very professional and provided us with a fantastic guide named Ben.
We enjoyed our time with Ben-a very experienced guide who took us to Amboseli, Naivasha and Lake Nakuru then on to the Maasai Mara. He delivered us safely and on time to the Tanzania border where we met our next guide.
Ben was able to show us so many animals and natural wonders of Kenya. He knew all the other guides and was in constant communication with them so we were always able to get to the location of a big sighting. He was kind and patient and happy to answer our questions. He was also an expert driver which is very important for the rough terrain of the safari.
In summary—If you book with Meektrails request Ben as your guide. He was the best!!!

The great migration at Masai Mara
We did a custom tour starting with 2 nights in amboseli, the third day was a long drive to masai mara with a stop in naivasha in between and then 3 nights in masai mara with 2 full day of game drives inside the mara.
Our first accommodation at amboseli sopa lodge was great, it is a big resort and has animals like antelopes monkeys inside. It was a great vintage stay. Donot miss the hemingways when you visit there. The game drives in amboseli itself was amazing. We saw an elephant going crazy giving an adrenaline rush. Then the elephants with the kilimanjaro in the backdrop, wow. We checked out bisited naviasha, a boat safari and a bush walk was a different experience and then came the mara. Masai mara is something which we never forget. We got upgraded from zebra plains mara camp to the luxury royal zebra safari lodge which was majestic. Every morning we will wake up and see the balloons flying and even saw a family of giraffe walking past infront of us. Then 2 full days of game drives in masai mara was far more than surreal. I counted and we say 24 animals, missed the rhino which is ok but we saw everything. Our guide George was so amazing, always focused on work trying to find animals for us and getting us the best spots. He would find animals and only we will be there or a few jeeps and we went during season time. Watchings lions up close, lions mating, the great migration with so many wildebeests and zebras, crossing the road felt awesome.
Special mention to Diana as well who helped us answering all our questions and arranging this special trip for us. Meektrails will always be recommended for your kenya safari.

A Truly Hassle-Free and Memorable Safari
We had an amazing 5 day experience with Meektrails during our Kenya trip covering Amboseli, Naivasha, and Maasai Mara.
One thing we really appreciated was the transparency. When they said “nothing extra,” they truly meant it—there were no hidden charges. Water supply was also more than sufficient throughout the trip, so we never faced any issues.
I’m vegetarian and don’t eat meat, and the food arranged by the hotels was exceptional. I had absolutely no issues with food throughout the trip.
A special mention to our driver, George. By the end of the trip, he felt more like a friend than just a driver. He was extremely patient, fun to talk to, and worked very hard to make sure we spotted everything we wanted to see. What we especially appreciated was that he didn’t just take us to the usual crowded spots. He knew how to find quieter places and gave us experiences where we could actually enjoy the surroundings and wildlife without being surrounded by too many vehicles. His knowledge about wildlife and the parks is incredible—he is like a walking, talking National Geographic! We could ask him anything, and he always had an answer and made sure we understood what we were seeing.
Lastly, a big thank you to Diana, who helped us with the booking. We changed our itinerary several times, and she was always patient and responsive, providing updated itineraries and quotations each time. She was also very flexible with the booking and cancellation terms. Since we were booking virtually from India and sending money without having met anyone, we initially felt a little nervous, but Diana’s flexibility and transparency made us feel completely comfortable.
Best for and highly recommended for first time travellers who need hassle free experience, transparency and flexibility in bookkng.
it was a memorable, comfortable, and hassle-free experience. We truly enjoyed the atmosphere, the wildlife, and the overall pace of the trip. Highly recommended!

Wonderful experience at a competitive price
My wife and I went on a six-days safari in late August with Meektrails Safaris.
First of all, the support we received during the planning stage (we were assisted by Diana) was excellent, with very quick email/Whatsapp responses.
The experience was fantastic; the combination of Amboseli, Nakuru, and Masai Mara National Parks, Naivasha and Nakuru lakes, allowed us to visit diverse environments.
We saw plenty of wildlife and fantastic views, especially in Masai Mara National Park.
The accommodations were very clean and comfortable, with excellent food.
We traveled in a minivan that was in good condition; for a more comfortable ride, you can opt for a Land Cruiser upgrade at an additional cost.
Our guide demonstrated great professionalism, he was excellent at explaining not only the wildlife but also the daily life in the towns and villages we passed through. He drove responsibly and kept to the schedule.
To sum up, a wonderful experience at a competitive price.......I highly recommend Meektrails Safaris.

Amazing
We went on a 13-day safari and everything was wonderful: the organization, the itineraries, the hotels, the comfort, and the meals. We had a minor disagreement about one of the transfers, but the company resolved it very quickly, efficiently, and promptly. We would return without hesitation. Special recognition to our guide Robin, who always made us feel safe and comfortable.

Absolutely spectacular safari experience
My group of 4 had an amazing experience with the Meektrails team. Esther was extremely helpful and supportive through the whole process from booking, to my questions leading up to the trip and logistics during the trip.
Ben was an amazing guide. He spotted the big 5 and other animals we would have never seen. Ben helped have so many special viewing experiences. He was very informative about the animals and Kenyan culture. Ben went at our pace but made sure all our needs were met.
We went to such a diverse set of parks and our accommodations hit the mark every time.
The food, service and amenities were all great value for the cost of the trip.
I 100% recommend booking with Meektrails and would again myself.

More than a safari – an unforgettable journey through Kenya
We had an unforgettable two-week trip through Kenya with Meektrails Safaris, and from the very beginning Esther made the whole experience feel personal and perfectly tailored to us.
She put together a wonderful itinerary combining the Maasai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli and the coast, as we wished. She listened carefully to what was important to us and found beautiful places to stay. Communication before and during the trip was always easy, warm and reliable.
And then there was Kim, our guide and driver, who became such an important part of our whole Kenya experience. His knowledge, his incredible eye for spotting animals, his patience and his calm way of doing things made every single game drive special. He showed us so much more than just the animals and always seemed to notice things long before we did. And somewhere along the way, his constant “pole pole” became one of the lasting memories of our trip. We could not have wished for a better guide.
What impressed us most was how well everything was taken care of even when things did not go according to plan. Our journey already started with a major flight delay and an unexpected night in Dubai, but Esther immediately adapted the arrangements in Kenya and stayed in contact with us throughout the trip. Later, when we experienced a very upsetting incident at one of the camps, Kim was there for us and helped us through a difficult situation. Knowing that we were not left alone when something went wrong meant a lot to us.
We also really appreciated all the small personal touches and the feeling that this was not simply a standard safari package. It became a journey we will remember for a very long time.
Thank you, Esther, for creating this journey for us, and thank you, Kim, for making our days on safari so unforgettable. We came home with countless memories, a serious case of Kenya longing – and already the idea that this probably wasn't our last trip with Meektrails. ❤️🇰🇪
Highly recommended!

Wonderful experience highly recommend
Just back from a 10 day safari with my 16 year old son and my brother. It was an amazing experience. Our driver guide James made it for us I think. He was so professional, kind, and patient with us. He was very passionate about the wildlife and always did his best to make our safari holiday the best experience it could possibly be. The accomodation and food on the trip was amazing. I can not recommend this company and James highly enough. We are from Ireland and will be recommending this company and this trip to our friends and family.

Perfect honeymoon
My husband and I went on a 5 day safari with Meektrails for our honeymoon. We went to Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and Masai Mara. Our guide Ben was amazing. We felt extremely safe from the moment we met him. The trip was stress free and perfect for a honeymoon. We had incredible experiences with wildlife, and our highlight was watching a lion hunt a warthog in Masai Mara. We saw every animal we hoped to see.
We worked with Mike to book our trip and he was great as well. He communicated with us before, during and after the trip to ensure everything was going smoothly. This was truly a once in a lifetime experience and we cannot thank Meektrails enough. I highly recommend.
