Timely and Value for money
5/5

My safari with Gemfinders Safaris to Samburu and Meru National Parks was an unforgettable adventure. Samburu impressed me with its stunning dry landscapes and rare wildlife like the reticulated giraffe and Grevy’s zebra, while Meru offered a peaceful, green escape full of animals and history. The contrast between the two parks made the journey diverse and exciting.

Gemfinders Safaris made everything seamless — from well-planned itineraries to knowledgeable guides who knew where to find the best sightings. Their attention to detail and personalized service truly elevated the whole experience. I highly recommend exploring both parks with Gemfinders for an authentic and memorable Kenyan safari.

It was so easy to communicate and plan our safari exactly how we wanted.
5/5

There was nothing we could fault from start to finish. The communication throughout the booking process was very easy with quick responses. We were going back and forth quite a bit to ensure the package worked for us but at no point did anyone make us feel like we were too much hard work. Everyone involved was great from transfer drivers to our safari guide. Definitely worth paying the price for as it definitely was to a high standard. The tour itself was beyond brilliant. Our tour guide Sammie was such a pleasure to be around. He had so much knowledge about everything and found so many animals for us to see. He was always on time and ready to start the day and gave us the best time we could have asked for. He knew his way around the park and always made us feel comfortable. Would definitely 100% recommend and would use ourselves if we planned this trip again!

Exceptional visit to Nairobi Natl Park and Karen Blitzen Museum
5/5

Our guide, Lawrence, went over and beyond to make certain we saw and experienced the things that were most important to us. He delivered! He is very knowledgeable, answered all our questions(animals, culture, family, etc), and even extended our tour so we didn’t miss anything. Five+ stars for Lawerence!

Amazing!
5/5

When planning my safari I contacted three different tour operators. From the outset, the service offered by Venessa at Gemfinders really stood out both in the quality of the quotation and the responsiveness to my questions. Venessa was always friendly and patient in tweaking the itinerary until I was completely happy with it.

The safari itself exceeded all expectations. The accommodation used was just perfect and our guide Dennis was friendly and knowledgeable. In four days we visited Amboseli, Tsavo West and Tsavo East, and it was worth visiting all three of them as the landscapes are very different in each one. Amongst many incredible wildlife encounters, seeing an elephant pass close to our balcony at Man Eaters Lodge was an absolute highlight. Thank you Venessa and Gemfinders!

Highly focused on delivering the best client experience
5/5

Gemfinders one-day safari from Nairobi is a great option for anyone looking for a short but impressive tour of Amboseli. This tour was a great value and Gemfinders provided an excellent experience with tailored routing and a dedicated visit to the lodge for lunch. Would highly recommend consulting Gemfinders for your trip.
