Excellent communication with reliable and great value for service
Dennis has made our trip into pure nature loving reality. He fully understood the exact character of what we were wishing to realize and tailored it to an unforgettable journey - between herds of wild game and lodges or tents awaiting us at the sunset of each day.
We were extremely lucky to have Henry -as our tour guide who was very humble with great knowledge! He was very sharp and skillful spotting of any Game in the vast territory of the parks. With great explanations about animals, weather influence, and history of local tribes, their culture, customs it made our trip educational and memorable.
Henry is very experienced in his profession- loves his country and it’s nature and was very enthusiastic to share it with us all through the wonderful days we traveled together.
We would highly recommend both - Dennis and Henry for your tour of Masai mara.

Organised
My father and I travelled to Kenya and had a wonderful experience with Alex as our driver / guide. The accommodations were excellent, the food suburb, and we always felt safe with Alex at the wheel. He was also so incredibly knowledgeable of the area and where to find the anomaly, but also very respectful not to disturb the habitat. His expertise and passion for the parks and animals shone through.

Getting safari adjusted to our needs was very efficient, communication was great, people friendly!
From first moment, communication with Alice, our tour consultant, was great. She quickly responded to all our questions, modified itinerary to include our end point in Diani, after visiting Amboseli and Tsavo West conservancy.
Our guide was very sweet and quiet young man Julius, who tried to show us as much as possible. Most impressive were families of lions and views of Kilimanjaro in Amboseli NP, where we also saw elephants, hippos, zebras, hyenas, buffaloes, flamingos... Accommodation in Oltukai Lodge was great, food options for my daughter and me, who are celiacs, were amazing.
Herds of animals coming to drink water at Salt Lick Lodge waterhole was something special to experience. Elephants, wilder beasts, zebras….kept coming to drink in organized long lines. It is impressive how all animals work together and give each order chance to drink, since that is the only place where water is available.

Simply the best !
If you want the best Safari and Africa experience of your life, there are not a lot of option. Indeed, only one: Morning Star. They are amazingly organised and prepared. Everything is tailor made for your best experience. They are the best in the Game of the Game drive and will always find the best spots to observe wildlife and will make everything to seek for any of your animal request followed by a clear success of the mission.
We saw the big 5 after 2 hours thanks the Alex Masila the best guide , the bro, the big boss that knows everything about his country, its wildlife and about things in general !
I seeked for several months for the best Tour company and after receiving dozens of quote i was immediatly starstrucked by far by Morning Star. They are fast with the reply, pro, clean especially Robert and their designed are the most pro i have seen.
So we booked and we went to Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru in the best Lodges, seeing amazing wildlife and being pampered all along our journey. They absolutely rocked everything it was a 10/10.
Thanks again to the whole team, it is not for nothing that they are the best rated ones !

Far far exceeding expectations
Perfect planning, perfect execution, perfect and prompt communication. Our guide Alex - we could not wish for a better guide. Very friendly, knowledgeable; our Safari went exactly according to the schedule ; he was very keen to show us maximum possible on the Safari, but yet taking care we have time to relax and enjoy the moments (family of 4, kids 14 and 6) ; everyone had really good time.

Nothing was too much, very accommodating.
Dennis arranged everything we asked for in a fast, through manor. He was very realiable and I thought also the trip was reasonably priced. The lodges were stunning with great views.
Alex did not disappoint on Safari. His experience shone through. He managed to get us close to some amazing animals we felt very spoilt.

The wind beneath my buffalo wings
Morningstar was a fantastic value and a wonderful experience. I booked the 3-day Amboseli Safari and John was informative and happy to answer all the random questions about life in Kenya that popped into my head. Equally as important he knew when to just let the day pass before us. We shared coffee and meals and got to see some amazing sights. Ambsoeli is the spot to go for elephants -- there are 2,000 in the park, but if you're looking for big cats maybe ask Morningstar to take you to Masai Mara or somewhere. For me, the Kilimanjaro views and pachyderm close encounters were something out of childhood fantasty. Thank you, Denis, Emmie, John, and everyone at Morningstar!

Tailor made, professional and the best price. Thank you!
We were blessed to book our safari with Morning Star!!! Dennis and his team helped us to combine safari in both Kenya and Tanzania. Communication was smooth and we received a lot of advice and good tips (e.g. yellow fever certificate if you travel from Kenya to Tanzania). Every moment from initial quote to the last day - was exceptional! Flexible, knowledgeable and the best price. Thank you for unforgettable experience:)

Dedicated: Great Service, Communication and Personalization
The Morningstar team, Tume and Dennis, were prompt and transparent in all their communication while coordinating our safari, and were great at ensuring all our desires were met. As people that are very used to organizing trips for ourselves, the team's frequent check-ins throughout the booking process helped put us at ease that we were in good hands and the details were being taken care of.
The safari itself reflected the agreed-upon itinerary and our guide, Alex M., was prompt, informative and energetic throughout the trip. This was our first safari experience and we witnessed more than we could have ever hoped for, including seeing the Big Five, multiple kills, and tons of adorable baby animals in three beautiful parks (Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and the Masai Mara). There's no way this would have been possible, had it not been for Morningstar and their vast knowledge of the parks and wildlife. Our accommodations and additional activities were top notch as well.
This trip was one for the books, and we would absolutely book with Morningstar again in the future. You're in great hands with them!
