Far far exceeding expectations
5/5

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.

Simply the best !
5/5

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 !

Getting safari adjusted to our needs was very efficient, communication was great, people friendly!
4/5

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.

5/5

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.

Excellent communication with reliable and great value for service
5/5

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.

Alex was the BEST tour guide; very informative, knowledgeable, and accommodating!
5/5

Morning Star Tours were absolutely amazing to work with, from beginning to end. They were swift in response to email with all questions and concerns we had before booking. Alex, our tour guide picked us up from our hotel, on time, with a smile on his face, and cool waters to drink at anytime. We stopped half way to Amboseli for a 30 minute bathroom break and local shopping. We also stopped at a Maasi village to meet the people and learn more about their lifestyle. Before we even arrived in the park, we started seeing giraffe, and Alex was most accommodating to us excited Americans, slowing down so we could see them better. Once inside the park, we learned Alex has the best eye for spotting wildlife and was extremely knowledgeable about the different animals, where they hang out, and what times of day they are where. The hotel, Ol Tukai Lodge was AMAZING with views of Mt Kilimanjaro and the animals (elephants, gazelle, zebra, baboon) from almost every spot on the property. The food was also AMAZING, with so much to chose from, salads, rices, meats, fresh fruit, etc. You will not go hungry! The staff at Ol Tukai were extremely attentive, greeting you with a cool, wet cloth when you arrive and carrying your luggage to and from your hotel room. All in all, not only will we use Morning Star again, we would 100% recommend this tour group and Amboseli to all of our friends and family.

A friendly operator, who provided us with an excellent planned tour and good communication.
5/5

We received a great tour package from Morningstar Safaris. It was well thought through, the hotels were fantastic and the driver Alex was excellent. Via WhatsApp, the communication was fantastic and we would receive a reply within few minutes, at any time of the day.
The luggage, which has not arrived from the airline, was picked up and taken care off by a team member. Great service! Strongly recommend this tour operator.

Flexible, Fun, ready for a good time.
5/5

Morningstar was super spontaneous and flexible with our afternoon safari in Nairobi National Park.
The guide was very friendly and helpful, knew where we needed to go, and made it a memorable afternoon.

The only thing I can comment on is that the car is starting to need replacing; it is well-maintained but a bit old.
