Private small ready to be helpfull!
Leopard Orchid Safaris is a small company that strives to deliver everything promised in the tour package, though there is still room for improvement in some areas.
For instance, the safari to Maasai Mara should be organized using only large 4x4 vehicles like the Toyota Land Cruiser, as the roads are in very poor condition, making the journey in a 4x4 van far too slow and exhausting.
Furthermore, the accommodation they select—especially near Lake Nakuru—should be closer to the national park.
Tito, who served as both driver and guide, was incredibly kind and dedicated, and he really made an effort to show us as much as possible.

Unforgettable!
We had an amazing time! From the moment they picked us up at the airport where they greeted us with gifts and a warm smile. Our safari experience surpassed all our expectations. A special thanks to our Guide/Driver and now friend Lawrence who made this trip unforgettable, his professionalism and attentiveness at all times made the difference from having a safari to having a roadtrip which we will always remember fondly. He always went the extra mile to keep us happy and his expertise as a guide made us witness many incredible moments on our game drives. Thank you Lawrence you are undoubtedly the best!!!

Profesional, friendly and excellent service
From the preparation stages everything went really well. Elijah made sure the itinerary was exactly what we wanted giving us expert advice .the process was explained and we accepted. Communication continued up until we boarded the flight. On arrival the director of the company and Elijah our consultant met us at the airport together with our driver/guide. After all the introductions we proceeded with our driver Lawrence a very calm cool guy who has become our friend. He took great care of us throughout the safari. I don’t think that it would have been the same without him. We have spent 8 days together and the travelling has been great fun. He showed us all that we wanted to see. Always professional attentive and always going the extra mile to keep us happy. If you book with leopard ask for Lawrence.

Leopard Orchid Safaris and our guide Sam Made Our Kenya Family Trip Perfect.
We spent 6 unforgettable days exploring Kenya’s national parks with Leopard Orchid Safaris, and the experience exceeded our expectations from start to finish. The organization was seamless: well-planned routes, comfortable transfers, and a perfectly balanced itinerary between wildlife drives and rest. Our driver-guide Sam truly made the difference: his knowledge of the parks and animal behavior made every game drive engaging and safe. Traveling with our two children, aged 8 and 11, Sam’s patience and attentiveness made the safari genuinely memorable for them too. We highly recommend Leopard Orchid Safaris to anyone planning a Kenya safari!

Our Second Safari with Leopard Orchid Safaris – And Once Again, Amazing!
This was our second safari in Kenya with Leopard Orchid Safaris, and once again the experience exceeded all our expectations.
This time we visited Amboseli, Tsavo East, and Tsavo West National Parks. Even though we booked during the high season with very little time before our departure, the team quickly put together an excellent itinerary, recommended fantastic accommodations with great value for money, and took all of our preferences into account. Every detail of the trip was perfectly organized, from transfers to lodge check-ins, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy the safari.
A special thank you to Michael for his professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail. He made the entire planning process smooth, easy, and completely stress-free.
We would also like to thank our guide, Fred, who is a true professional. His knowledge of Kenya's wildlife, the national parks, and animal behavior is simply outstanding. We were especially impressed by Tsavo, where the vast landscape and dense vegetation make spotting wildlife much more challenging than in more open parks. Thanks to Fred's experience, patience, and exceptional tracking skills, we were able to see almost every animal we had hoped to encounter. On top of that, he shared fascinating insights about the animals, their behavior, and the unique ecosystems of each park, making every game drive even more memorable.
Throughout the entire trip, we felt that the itinerary had been carefully tailored to our interests rather than being just another standard safari package. It was clear that everyone on the team genuinely cares about creating unforgettable experiences for their guests.
Leopard Orchid Safaris is a company you can truly trust with your dream safari. We wouldn't hesitate to travel with them again and highly recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Kenya❤️
An absolutely incredible experience for our honeymoon with an outstanding guide!
Where do I begin! We had the most incredible time on safari in Kenya with Leopard Orchid across an 8 day trip. The service and care that we received was outstanding. When I booked it I did not really know what to expect as we had never done a similar trip before. We were met at the airport by the team and given a wonderful welcome and introduced to our safari guide, Paul. This review is really all about Paul! He was the best guide we could have possibly asked for. We went to Amboseli, Navaisha, Masai Mara and Nakuru with Paul driving us across Kenya and then on game drives in the parks. His knowledge of the country and animals was amazing and elevated the trip for us. His care and passion for the wildlife and environment around him was clear to see and his passion for the animals was infectious! The information that he shared while on the game drives was so engaging- whether we had just seen on of the big five or an unexpected animal encounter. Paul had a wonderful passion for bird watching that we soon shared! He was incredibly conscious of making sure we saw all the animals that we wanted to see but we did not request this- he just did it with his vast experience and knowledge of game driving. He made recommendations and advice on when to go on the drives to maximise chances of sightings and we were always happy to oblige! Due to his experience, kindness and attentiveness- we trusted whatever he decided. He also knew so many people across Kenya in all different towns and parks which we loved! We were able to not just experience safari but also see the beautiful country of Kenya. Being able to spend so much time with Paul and getting to know him was awesome- what an absolute legend!
The hotels we chose were in the mid-level bracket and I am happy that we actually didn’t go for the more expensive options as we were out for such huge parts of the day, we barely spent any time at the hotels- the value for money was excellent. When booking them and contacting Victor, he was so attentive and responsive to queries and questions it was just excellent.
Overall, I will be recommend Leopard Orchid to any friends and family that plan on doing a safari. I can’t imagine doing it with anyone else- they gave us the best honeymoon and we will be forever grateful! Paul is the boss!

Excellent service and great communication
First I was looking at different provider of safari tours at safari bookings.com, but Leopards Orchid Safaris responded very quickly at my questions! Thanks Daniel for that. You were almost hooked to your email :) and that was great because I wanted to arrange this safari for our 25th Anniversary for my family of 6 (me, my husband, our 3 daughters 24-16-16 years ad boyfriend of my oldest daughter). For these ages the safari is just perfect. Younger children I personally would not bring along. We booked around 6 to 7 months ahead our safari tour. And when we had a problem with booking a train ticket in M-Pesa for us for later on our journey, Daniel was so kind as to book ik for me, so that we could pay this later on. That was a great service!
We were picked up at our hotel, and it was great to see that Daniel also came to greet us personally, as well as James the Director. They both did the briefing and introduced us to Lawrence (our guide).
Lawrence was, to our opinion, a great guide! A little bit quiet, just enough so that this was really our journey. But of course he would share a lot of information with us when we saw all kinds of things along the way, or just about the National Parks etc, and drove us to the best spots.
We enjoyed to have Lawrence as our guide!!! We give him also a 5-star rating :) He really took care of us and even arranged a special sundowner at a whale rock with a beautiful view.
Once again Leopard Orchid Safaris thank you for your effort to make this trip a memorable one!!!
And to anyone who might still have doubts..... do not hesitate. This company has a great expertise and service level!
Beyond amazing experience!
Everything was absolutely great from start to finish.
Elijah was so helpful planing the perfect itinerary and was extremely responsive. We were greated by the whole team at the start of our safari.
But the best was Lawrence, our guide. We were travelling with young children (3 and 5y) and he was so patient and great with the kids. They absolutely loved him.
He took us to all the best places. We saw all the animals we were hoping to see (including a stunning Leopard sight in Masai Mara). He was extremely knowledgeable and the best guide we could have hoped for!
Thank you again, we are all already missing you!

Wonderful
We had an absolutely unforgettable experience with Leopard Safari in Kenya! From the moment we arrived until the end of our trip, everything was perfectly organized. The team was professional, friendly, and always ready to help.
Our guide was knowledgeable and made every game drive exciting by helping us spot incredible wildlife, including lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, and many more. The accommodations, transportation, and itinerary were all excellent, making our family trip comfortable and stress-free.
Thank you to the entire Leopard Safari team for creating memories that will last a lifetime. We highly recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. We can't wait to return for another adventure!

An Outstanding Safari with Exceptional Service and Expert Guides
Thanks to our guide’s excellent tracking skills, we were fortunate enough to see the Big Five, as well as rare animals such as black rhinos, African wild dogs, and cheetahs.
