Professional, reliable, and excellent service from planning to the end of the safari.
We were very satisfied with our 10-day safari. From the very beginning we received excellent support. Venessa from the office always responded very quickly to our messages and guided us perfectly throughout the entire planning process.
Whenever we asked for adjustments to the itinerary, she immediately took care of them. She was also very quick to respond to any questions we had – truly excellent service.
During the safari, we saw an incredible number of animals – the Big Five and many more. It was an unforgettable wildlife experience.
Our guide Isaac was always professional, friendly, and reliable. He took great care of us until the very last day and even accompanied us to the train station at the end.
We can definitely recommend Gemfinders and would like to thank the team for this wonderful experience.

Cibril, Mildred and Lawrence were organized , gave good advice on tour choices.
The team at Gemfinders office, especialy Cibril and Mildred are very friendly. They provide information in a timely manner, and follow up to make sure all is well during the tour.
Our tour guide, Lawrence is very knowledgable , calm and friendly. During the tour he was keen to select road routes that ebabled us see more along the road, while still avoiding road snarl ups.
Lawrence has passion for wild life and skill for tracing their habitat. My highlight was being so close to the live lions!
Lawrence: is steady on the wheel and we is well conected with local tourist facilities.

Lawrence was knowledgeable and relaxed and worked to help us have the best experience.
Lawrence provided great service and communication during our tour. He consistently showed up on time and provided interesting, helpful, often humourous info about the geography, animals, plants, and birds. We saw so many different animals and birds at Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru. Lawrence was kind and thoughtful about making our tour memorable and meaningful, down to the type of music he chose while driving. We got great value for the price- I'm very satisfied.

Seamless Organization of logistics
Our family trip to Masai Mara safari with Gemfinders Safaris was excellent. From detailed itinerary at booking time to the actual trip everything went smoothly. Our Safari tour guides Lawrence and William were very professional and friendly. They showed up on time, were on top of things, exhibited impressive knowledge of the wildlife and knew spots to take us to. We got to see a lot of animals and over all extremely happy with our trip/ experience. I would highly recommend gemfinders safari to anyone looking for a safari trip in Kenya.

Both Lawrence and William were amazing and very knowledgable!
Our group of 9 planned our entire 4-day trip with Gemfinders Tour and Travel, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish.
From the moment we arrived at Nairobi airport, we were warmly welcomed by Lawrence and William, who took great care of us throughout the entire trip. Their kindness, professionalism, and knowledge truly made the experience unforgettable.
We visited the Maasai Mara National Reserve, Nairobi National Park, and the Giraffe Centre — all of which were incredible experiences. Every part of the journey was smooth and enjoyable, from the airport transfers to the long drives between Nairobi and Maasai Mara, as well as the game drives themselves.
Lawrence and William went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and having a great time, and their expertise added so much value to our trip.
I highly, highly recommend Gemfinders Tour and Travel to anyone planning a trip to Kenya!
A Dream came true
We booked the Gemfinder Tour starting with Massai Mara, over to Lake Nakuru and then Amboseli. Tracy organzided everything really well and was super available at any time for any question.
Our Guide Lawrence made sure we had THE BEST possible Safari anybody could as for. He was not only patient with us, he also made sure we could see all animals very close but also safe. He always knew what the animals next moves is going to be and made sure to wait or to leave at the right time!
Thank you so much, we will see you again for a Leopard Tour!
