Encouraging & professional
5/5

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! :)

Very helpful, professional and welcoming.
5/5

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
5/5

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
5/5

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!
5/5

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!

5/5

i have always considered an experience of THE GREAT AFRICAN SAFARI. this has always been in my bucket list. the only problem has been where to start from, who to contact, habitat and food choices since the delicacies are two worlds apart. i have never regreted my 5th of january 2022 findings from 'Africa Safari Bookings' because every conversation and monetary value pumped towards the trip was more than worth it. The phone calls and conversations through whatsapp made me feel i was making the right decision. So as my flight begun in Bardufoss airport to Turkey by Qatar airways and finally from Istanbul to kenya though i was tired from the long flight but the reception at the airport was everything. a plackcard with my name on it being held by asharply dressed guy putting on the warmest smile of all time won my heart. he helped me with the bags and as we drove to my hotel room for the night sarova hotel where class meets taste we had a tiny chit chat. morning came and for sure in my entire 34 years i have never seen soo much food in one place talk about fruits, various types of bread, baked beens, bacon all types of coffee and so on. just incase you are wonderiong i took bacon baked beand,capuccino, some well done eggs and grapes. then we headed to enashipai resort and spar, welcomed with fresh juice, laggage taken to my room and within minutes the spar was ready for me mmmhhhh the most relaxing 60mins traditional swedish massage . the facillity was clean and that which impressed me the most was the fact that africa safari bookings chose the best of the best and this really made my work easy. The epitome was the safari experience itself at Lake nakuru national park on a jeep, we saw millions of flamingoes and other birds, with the the tour guide who knew where to find each and every single animal in park and each time we saw any animal he expained in details this was so amazing. We drove to Lake Naivasha for spectacular view of the Great Rift Valley and vivit to Crescent island paradise for a good waterlife adventure! The trip was superb with a good rest at Eneshipai Safari lodge here, a heavens den.
