This company was terrific from the first quote to the last moment at the Nairobi airport.
I was amazed that Alica Moraa could create a perfect, affordable, private safari for me and my adult children. The original quote had me wanting to get on the plane that moment. None of the other companies I contacted were as helpful.
Alice's support with details, my personal challenges, and care were terrific. She is professional and delightful. She even met us at the Nairobi airport to give us a refund on a small excursion that had to be cancelled because of bad weather. I was shocked.
I was also amazed at the quality of the tour that Alice put together for us. Each location we visited, and each lodging she arranged was equal to or better than the last one. After our first arrival at Zebra Plaines Mara Camp, we worried that we had been totally spoiled. Every location and activity was magical. We were never disappointed. I am 77 , and my daughter is a vegan. I wondered if those things would be problems. The tour accommodated us perfectly. Also, everywhere we went the food was terrific, and varied and plentiful enough for all.
John Maina, our guide, became a great friend in addition to a professional expert guide. He loves his job, and it shows. So many times, I felt he had ordered the animals to appear for our personal benefit. His ability to spot animals in the wild, and predict their behavior put us in the right spot time after time. He knows a lot about the wildlife, so be sure to ask him lots of questions. We also watched him help and support other guides during our time together. He is a very good man in addition to being a very good guide.
His personal care for us was also always evident. As an old lady, he never seemed to tire of helping me in and out of the Land Rover multiple times a day. His careful driving on roads that could be very challenging showed his care for our comfort and safety. I'd almost like to repeat the exact same safari, just to have John take care of us again.
We were blessed to have found Morningstar. We will never forget the friendship and the experience.
