Charles provided an unforgettable safari experience marked by expert wildlife knowledge, flawless pl
5/5

Maxvel Safaris delivered the trip of a lifetime. From the moment we landed to our final goodbyes, every detail was handled with care, professionalism, and a deep passion for Kenya’s wildlife and culture.

Over two weeks, we explored Sweet Water, Samburu, Nairobi, Nakuru, Maasai Mara, and Amboseli. Each location offered something unique, and Charles made sure we experienced the best of every park. We were fortunate to see the Big 5, the Ugly 5, and the Special 5. While a few of the Small 5 eluded us, we were more than satisfied with the incredible sightings we had. Every day brought something new: elephants at sunrise, lions with cubs, and even a rhino up close.

The accommodations were fantastic. We stayed in a mix of lodges and tented camps, all thoughtfully selected and offering great comfort, food, and atmosphere.

Communication from Maxvel was clear and responsive from the beginning. They were quick to answer questions and made booking and preparation simple. The entire experience felt like tremendous value for money given the quality of guiding, accommodations, and the depth of experience offered. Charles and the Maxvel team made us feel like guests, not just tourists.

If you are looking for a reliable, well-organized, and unforgettable safari experience, Maxvel Safaris should be at the top of your list. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

Our 8 day trip to Kenya was one of the best trips we have done .. this wouldnt have been possible without Charles .. he is simply amazing .. he is a very passionate guide who knew his way in and around the parks .. the resorts booked by Maxvel was great and was great value for money and safe

Maxvel Safaris is Personal Professional and give you maximum value for your money
5/5

I went on a private trip with Charles he is a great guide. He has the knowledge, experience and is personal. Maxvel Safaris is a small operator but this is for me a positive point because you don't feel just an other tourist. Charles will maximize the time in the parks we went early and left at the last moment. He will do his best to let you see as much as possible! Even my trip was in the low season I did see the big and uggly 5.

Charles gave me an personal and nature experience I won't forget! I would recommend Maxvel Safaris to my friends and the next time I will come to Kenya we will meet again! Thank you Charles!

I did the 4 day safari, 2 days Masai Mara and 2 days Lake Nakuru but instead of the last day Nakuru Charles recommended to end in Naivasha to maximize my experience!
