Encouraging & professional
I went for a hiking trip up to Mt Kenya from 31/12/2023-4/1/2024. My tour guide, Shem, was very kind, friendly, professional, and encouraging. He was also very helpful in making sure that I was feeling good each day before getting started on the trek. On my third day, I spontaneously felt like I wanted to summit a day earlier than planned and when I asked Shem for his insight/thoughts, he was very supportive & straight away got the crew ready to make it happen. It was a successful trip! I had a wonderful cook, Augustine, too. He would always check on whether I've had enough food or needed anything else. The food and fruits were amazing! I had two porters - Joshua and Julius; both men were quiet, calm, and on task. I highly recommend going on this adventure with this team! :)

A successful hiking trip
We booked the 6 day Mont Kenya trek via the Sirimon gate to Chogoria.
Our guide and the carrier team (Shem, Gaustin, Anthony, Julius, John and Gilbert) was very helpful anytime we asked for anything, always trying to make our trip the best possible.
Would we have prefered to know in advance that we would be sleeping in a tent and to have an exhaustive list of what we would need for the hike ? Yes but even without that we successfully hiked to the top of Mount Kenya !
We were taken care of with 3 meals a day, tea anytime we wanted.
This trip is for experienced hikers as the hike can be technical.

We had a great 5 day hike up MT Kenya, following the Chogoria to Sirimon Route. The guide Shem and his team were excellent, would highly recommended. The food was amazing, the chef Gustin never left us hungry and fuelled us to go up the mountain! The porters took good care of us and made us feel at ease. Would highly recommend this trip.

Expert Driver and Guide
Please also see my separate review of the wonderful Safari tour we had and expert assistance of Africa Safari Bookings Advisory Center in planning it.
I would like to make a special mention of our excellent Kenyan driver and guide Oburu. Oburu is the best person we could have had leading us around between the National Parks and navigating the back roads. He is an expert and safe driver, knowledgeable and passionate, punctual and hardworking. His English is perfect and his professionalism is exemplary. We were fortunate to have Oburu lead us for 10 days. We are a family of 4 and he organized and looked after all of us. I highly recommend asking for Oburu to be your driver and guide when you plan your visit.

Trustworthy, reliable, knowledgeable and helpful Tour Company
We had an amazing Safari adventure through Africa Safari Bookings, with expert planning help by Claude and Edmond, and assistance during the trip provided by Francis. Our initial plans to travel in July 2020 had to be cancelled due to Covid and closed borders, but the staff were very professional and remained in communication, and so when we were able to travel once more we had confidence we could use this company again.
Our customized itinerary included visits to Bomas cultural, Giraffe and Elephant centers in Nairobi, game viewing at Amboseli National Park, crossing border to Tanzania, taking in the sights at Lake Manyara, game drive through Ngorongoro Crater, exploration of the Serengeti, crossing back to Kenya for game drives at Masai Mara, then to visit Lake Naivasha for boat ride and nature walk, on to Lake Nakuru for another game drive, and lastly to the famous Samburu National Park in the North. We got to see all the Big 5, as well as the Ugly 5, cheetahs, giraffes, hippos, many species of bird, variety of Antelope from largest (Eland) to smallest (dik-dik) in the world, and we got to see the Samburu 5 (Grevy's zebra, long-necked gerenuk, reticulated giraffe, Somali ostrich and Beisa oryx).
Our drivers in both Kenya and Tanzania were knowledgeable, excellent spotters and respectful of animals. The vehicles were safe, sturdy and well-maintained.
All in all a fantastic trip, which was well organised and managed by Africa Safari Bookings Advisory Center. I am happy to recommend using them for your tour.

This safari was amazing!
The safari holiday bookings team was very punctual on the days we were picked up and dropped off. The night drive took us to the Masai Mara and we were able to see all of the wild animals we had never seen before. The day safari took us around the Masai Mara National Reserve and our driver was very knowledgeable about all of the different animals and the vegetation in the area. I would highly recommend this company for your safari in Kenya!
