A Very Cost-effective, Professional and Efficient group of Safari Designers !!
This is the story of the Kenyan dream safari which we undertook in mid-May. It was an enchanting trip covering most of its wildlife where we covered Amboseli, Nakuru, Naivasha and Mara within 7-8 days. Being well aware of Kenyans' polite and gentle nature and after requisitioning many quotations and online searches, I struck Gold with ‘Kameraz of Afrika’. To our delight, we found their Director, Carol Kendi, to be a gem of a person both as an individual and in terms of safari management. She gave me the most competitive pricing for top-of-line 4.5 plus rated Lodges, Hotels and Camps to stay. (I had cross checked with many online sources, they had the lowest of prices for same Lodge/Camp) Their agency had the most convenient payment schedules and methods all the while maintaining complete transparency about planning and costing. Along with this, she coped with my 1000 queries ))) while giving genuine inputs and suggestions while making prompt changes and reverting.
I found their Landcruiser as described and as comfortable as it can be. Our driver Guide was Geff (not Jeff), he was a total professional with adequate knowledge and was prompt with planning and suggestions for daily Game Drives.
Overall, I would recommend you to try them, you would be more than happy that you did. If you have a general idea Or a specific idea about a safari with a suitable estimate of budget Or how you imagine it to be from scratch, from zero, just discuss it with her!! She has a tight-knit team who will ensure that the only thing that you will be bothered about is getting up early in the morning to maintain an appointment with the wildlife waiting on drives.
Even now when I look back, it still feels like a dream sequence as it was flawless. Of course, mid-May isn't the season for migration, even then we saw everything, the weather was cool and Carol has ensured that we will visit Kenya again and will be choosing them for the migration season next year.

Incredible experience with Kameraz!
We had an amazing 10-day safari experience with Kameraz this September. Carol took all our requests into consideration and put together an itinerary that was suitable for us and within our budget. All of the accommodations we stayed at were up to, if not beyond par!
Our guide Tony was amazing! He was accommodating to all our requests and made sure we got to see the big five and more! He was especially good at spotting all the birds so, if you are into bird watching, definitely request him. He was really informative too and polite.
Everyone we came a cross were so polite and hospitable and we truly felt welcome everywhere.
I really hope we get a chance to visit a Kenya once again!

Most incredible experience!
Where to even start with Kameraz of Afrika! After being let down by a separate company, they were able to help us forget about that and have the most amazing holiday. Our 10 day safari was made by our fantastic tour guide Ali who always went above and beyond to provide us with the most incredible experiences from 6 week old lion cubs, a kill and even a serval!! His eye sight and ability to spot these incredible animals blew us away, showing his appreciation, passion and experience in all he does. He was so welcoming and always cracking jokes about different things we were seeing on the way, an asset to the team and something Kameraz of Afrika should be proud of.
The accommodation which was booked for us was breathtaking, leaving us speechless most of the time. Our trip consisted of Aberdare (the Ark lodge), Ol Pejeta, lake Nakuru, the Maasai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli (seeing Kilimanjaro), spending the afternoon before our flight home in Nairobi getting up close and personal with giraffes.
Anyone who loves animals and wants a safari holiday, we would a million percent recommend and we will be going back with them again!

Very responsive and flexible tour operator who can help customize your Safari trip
Kameraz of Afrika was extremely responsive on responding to my requests and questions when over WhatsApp when planning the trip, and this is the main reason I have chosen this operator to organize my trip.
We planned a 5 day trip across Masai Mara (Kenya) and Serengeti (Tanzania), which required customized transportation but the operator planned it perfectly and everything went smoothly. The drivers in each location always arrived on time and made sure we were safely transported to our next destination.
The tour guides in Kenya and Tanzania were both very nice people with high level of hospitality. It was unfortunate that there were less animals due to the low season, but they tried hard and we were eventually able to see pretty much all species the Safari had to offer. I would especially like to thank Elly who took very good care of our small kids during the trip.
I think pricing was competitive compared to other operators and the quality of the vehicles were satisfactory. They were very flexible on changing plans along the way.
In terms of improvement points,
1) it would have been helpful if they could prepare a detailed itinerary with flight #s and meet up times with each driver, which only partial information was provided and sometimes made us nervous
2) We were taken to Masai village although we had not asked for nor had been explained about, and got ripped off on entry fee, which was an unpleasant experience
3) The guide in Kenya could have done a better job spotting animals, as he made some bets which eventually didn't pay off and we spent a long time just waiting. He was also quiet and didn't explain much about the animals.
Overall, it was a very satisfactory trip and recommend Kameraz of Afrika for those considering a customized trip to the Safaris.

Perfect and well organised safari,
We have just got back to England following a a 9 day safari, Carol was extremely helpful when tailoring the trip to our needs, we had numerous emails and WhatsApp conversations and everything went without a hitch. Our guide was Dennis who was the best we could have asked for. He knew so much about everything and was very skilled in moving the jeep to get the best views, despite the large amount of others all wanting the same. Once he realised I was interested in the birdlife too he never failed to point new birds out and tell me what they were. My wife had a migraine for 2 days and he was so careful driving on the bumpy tracks and taking non standard routes to get the smoothest roads for her. 9 days and we've made a good friend.
We chose Carol as she was the most reliable in responding to messages and excellent value for money, without a doubt every hotel/lodge we stayed in was better then we could have imagined.
Thanks Carol and Dennis

Excellent service
This was our first safari but Kameraz did excellent job selling Africa to us. It was very smooth ride from start to finish. Our guide Peter was very knowledgeable about all the animals - large and small and also knows the parks very well. He knows where to stop on the longer rides. The company leader Carol was available to answer all our questions. I recommend safari with this company!

Kameraz of Afrika offered us a lifetime experience - James was an amazing tour guide
The top guide was very polite and always eager to help. He was explaining us everything regarding the animals and the nature. All the hotels in the package were above expectations and the trip well organised. I would come back in Kenya and book again with Kameraz of Afrika
