Fantastic safari with a great guidr
We booked a 5day safari for our family with 2 big kids. The communication with Dennis during booking processwas great, he is responsive and very flexible. We were happy with the itinerary, the booked lodges. Our guide, Alex was very knowledgeable, was always looking for the best spots to view the animals. We saw the big 5 as well, and generally the whole safari was a life time-experience. Will definitely come back, and have our next safari with Morningstar. Do not hesitate to book 😊!!

It was all perfect!
The tour was top, well organised in every detailed, the tour operator was always in contact with us and the driver/guide has been excellent in support/drive us to see the big Five in the safari (it is not sure to see them), very friendly and always on time. I will contact them for the next trip.

Incredible!
Our safari in the Masai Mara was unforgettable thanks to our exceptional guide, Rono. His knowledge of wildlife and tracking skills led us to incredible sightings — including four of the Big Five — all while ensuring our safety and comfort.
He positioned the vehicle perfectly for photos, never rushed the experience, and shared meaningful insights about the ecosystem and local culture. Professional, attentive, and respectful of the land, he made the trip truly extraordinary. I highly recommend Rono and Morning Star to anyone visiting the Mara.

Everything we wished for and more.
Amazing experience.
They came to pick us up at the airport and the fun began.
Julius and Joysharon were ready for all of our questions (first timers) and the first interaction comforted us in our decision to pick them.
My friend originally reccommended it to us.
First day was rough due to hard rain, we took the car and turned back within 20 minutes. (We heard Stories of car getting stuck and that could only be rescued 4h later). Please dont push it and listen to your driver they have the best knowledge and advienne possible.
We were sad to go back to the hotel (for which we were upgraded to luxury amenities) but the vibe and set-up of it were perfect. Activities and Food are great and there's a lot of options.
Our driver Julius told us next get ready earlier as he would make up for the time lost and we would have a big day of game drives. The following day we went from masai mara to Lake Nakuru to another amazing hotel.
In 2 days we saw everything from the big five to most other animal possible. Julius's knowledge and patience were on point (we waited nearly 30 min for a leopard to get out of its tree and he came all the way to the car to drink water from a puddle).
After talking to other people picking other compagnies and even friends that have been on multiple safaris, they didnt have the chance to experience this.
We also got to see a lioness waiting for sunset to enjoy her meal (buffalo).
We were lucky but also well surrounded by this amazing team. Joysharon checked up on us daily to make sure this experience was up to our expectations.
We have hit all the checkboxes.
When we come back it'll be with you.
And we reccomend it to everyone!

Dream come true
It has been a dream of mine to visit Kenya and do a safari for as long as I could remember. I've always watched nature documentaries and have a huge love for animals. Being able to see all these amazing creatures (lions, zebras, giraffes, warthogs, forest hogs, mongoose, hyenas, hippos, rhinos, jackels, several kinds of antelope, water bucks, buffalo, wildebeasts, flamingos and no many different kinds of birds all within their natural habitats and not within a zoo or exotic ranch as been truely amazing. Mr, Steven, my guide for the trip, was veey knowledgeable and would give me all sorts of facts about the animals as well as the pointing out the way of life for Kenyans and the Masaai people. It was very humbling to be able to experience others live and work the fields and trade with their neighbors. The sense of community was strong in Kenya. All of the accommodations were very nice and comfortable and the food was delicious. As a somewhat picky eater (so I've been told) I typically struggle eating in other countries, and Kenya was a place that I had zero issues. The hospitality is unmatched as well by everyone I met. I'm glad I chose Morningstar for making me feel safe, welcome and for giving me a great adventure I will remember for a lifetime. The value for the tour was also very reasonable for everything that was included, just be sure to bring plenty of cash for tipping (for bell hops and waiters and don't forget the drivers), as well as extra space in your luggage for all the temptational shopping you might do (just about everywhere accepted cards as well). Hope to do another safari one day!

Another amazing trip with Morning Star Tours and Travel.
Morningstar Safaris has been wonderful to travel with, and this was actually our second safari with them. Across our two trips we’ve now visited four different national parks and were fortunate enough to see the entire Big Five, which was unforgettable. What really stands out is the professionalism and warmth of the team. Our guide, Willy, was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and clearly passionate about wildlife, always making sure we were in the right place at the right time while also taking time to explain what we were seeing. He was our guide last year too and continues to be amazing. Everything was seamlessly organized, from transportation to park logistics, so we could simply relax and enjoy the experience. If you’re looking for a safari company that is reliable, friendly, and truly committed to creating memorable wildlife experiences, Morningstar Safaris is outstanding. We wouldn’t hesitate to travel with them again and hope we will a third time!

Perfect experience. We loved it.
The driver perfectly replicated his approach of showing us the animals while avoiding risks. I recommend him for his punctuality, skill, and local knowledge. The water bottles in the car is very handy. Thanks Timothy
