Masai mara
Excellent safari expérience. Our guides ( samwel and tetu) were very dedicated to getting us the best experience. They went above and beyond to make sure we could see all the big 5 and other animals with amazing views every time ! They also managed to find beautiful spots for breakfast and lunch on site and always offered to take nice pictures ! They were always patient and accommodating to our needs.

Professionalism
We had an amazing safari with Balu Travel through Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Naivasha, and Amboseli. Everything was perfectly organized, and the experience exceeded our expectations.
A special thank you to our guide, Jackson, who was outstanding. He was knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and always went the extra mile to give us the best wildlife sightings. Thanks to him, this was truly an unforgettable safari. We highly recommend Balu Travel and especially Jackson!

Excellent service
Our experience with balu was fantastic. Our guide Johnson was especially good. He was always on time, the car was clean and he was very friendly. The lodges we stayed at was also very nice. I would recommend the trip to others.

Amazing adventure
Kish, our driver went above and beyond to ensure we had a great safari. The drive was very enjoyable with water and wifi available. Kish would stop whenever you needed a break.
On the safari Kish was able to provide incredible details about each animal. He also knew when are where to find them
The trip was very enjoyable with the spotting of a lion and having the clouds clear to provide a nice view of Kilimanjaro.
If you have the chance to go on a safari feel confident you will be taken care of by Kish and Balu Travel

Perfect
We traveled with Balu to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli. The driver Johnson was very skilled and had a lot of information about the animals. He was very good at finding animals quickly. We were amazed at how quickly he found the first lion. We also got to see lions hunt (and kill). We chose the parks ourselves in cooperation with Balu Travel and were prepared for a lot of driving. We think it was worth the drive, but others may want to limit their driving a bit. It is a long way to Amboseli. The other parks are close to each other.

Trip of a lifetime!
We had a fantastic 1.5-day safari in the Masai Mara. Our guide, Johnson, was incredibly knowledgeable, accommodating, and went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. Thanks to his skill and determination, we were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five. He was friendly, helpful, and always made sure we were comfortable throughout the tour. I would highly recommend both the tour and Johnson as a guide.

Amazing experience
Balu travel provided an amazing experience since the booking process where they were very attentive and responsive, to the pickup and the safari itself. The camp was simple but had everything we needed and both the food and our room were good. Our driver/guide Kish is an awesome person, very knowledgeable and easygoing. There was no question he couldn’t answer (he knows the parks, culture, animals very well) and gave us a great time at the savanna. Unforgettable memories!
Reliable , good value too
This was the third time I have used this company for a two day trip to the Meru National park staying in Ikweta lodge . The Guides were very friendly and reliable and adapted to our schedule. We had the park to ourselves on both game drives the lodge is also very good value for money and absolutely gorgeous.
The only thing to note was that the seatbelt didn’t work in one of the seats, so I would just make sure that they check it next time before setting off
