Adaptive, understanding, caring and trustworthy
With Green Places Adventures it was all very fluent from the start. Elijah was the one to plan it all, a wise and caring professional. He was diligent in answering and adapting the tour while our plans evolved. They offered a very competitive package and were kind to break down the costs for us, so we would make informed decisions when fine-tunning. I do not know how many versions we asked for, but they never had a "no" for a response. Also, you can see they are very experienced because the route recommendations were solid, and the driver/guide was amazing.
Our driver was Evans, a very very experienced guide that explained all details of the animals behaviour, so we could enjoy not just seeing them, but understanding what was happening (a giraffes elegant neck fight, hyenas hunt, elefants protective parenting...).
Some quality details to look for if you are lost comparing packages, that made us choose Green Places Adventures over others: timely answers, game drives also upon arrival to the lodge in the afternoon (some others skip it and it and then may look cheaper, but you miss half day of safari), upgrade when possible and very transparent pricing. And for me, the most important, it's a local agency, so it's all staying in Kenia <3.
About our tour: We had a 7 days safari from Amboseli to Naivasha and Nakuru, then to Masai Mara and back to Nairobi. Amboseli has its own soul, with amazing Kilimanjaro as unique background and a lot of elephants and other big mammals. Naivasha's Crescent Island is a curious thing to experience, especially with kids. Nakuru was the unexpected delight, with a lot of animals including rhinos and lions, beautiful stay. Masai Mara is THE place to go for its vast extension and the savannah landscape we all have in our documentary memories; plus getting to know Masais is the cultural cherry on the cake, Kenia is so much more than just wildlife.

Very good reception at the destination and very professional.
An incredible private tour! Our guide Alex went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time on our safari. Every single park had its own unique charm and exceeded our expectations.

⭐ The Best Safari Experience Ever ⭐
My friend and I had the most amazing safari with Green Places Safaris — it truly went beyond all our expectations.
The communication throughout the entire booking process was outstanding. They replied immediately and were always happy to adjust details if needed, which made everything feel easy and safe.
Our guide, Jackson, was simply the best — welcoming, professional, and incredibly skilled. He made sure we saw all the animals you dream of seeing on safari, even some of the rare ones! He was knowledgeable, talkative, and by the end of the trip, we felt like we had built a special friendship with him.
We stayed at Simba Lodge, which was absolutely breathtaking. From our balcony, we could see animals walking freely on the savannah right in front of us, and the pool overlooking the savannah was just incredible. The staff, facilities, and buffet food were all top class.
If your budget allows it, we highly recommend upgrading to a Land Cruiser jeep — it makes the experience a thousand times better and adds so much comfort and flexibility to the game drives.
All in all, the best safari experience ever — full of unforgettable memories and happy moments. We couldn’t recommend it more! 🦒🌿

A memory for life
Thank you, Alex! Our driver, Alex, showed us some amazing things during our stay. In four days, we saw the Big Five and the Ugly Five. Thank you so much! Thank you for everything; we will cherish these memories forever. And thank you, Elijah, for the organization.

The company was highly responsive and reasonable.
Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my trip to Masai Mara arranged by Green Places Adventures. From the very beginning, Elijah was consistently prompt, patient, and attentive in responding to all my enquiries, helping me carefully navigate the various options so I could make a well-informed decision.
As a female solo traveler, I felt completely safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout my five-day, four-night safari. My driver and guide, Jackton, was exceptionally experienced, kind, and dedicated. He went above and beyond to ensure that I made the most of every moment, and his genuine passion and professionalism truly enhanced my experience.
This trip exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend this company to anyone seeking a reliable, thoughtful, and high-quality safari experience.

Evans was very accommodating
What a great safari experience from start to finish! Our flight was delayed 6 hours but Elijah and Evans were extremely accommodating and were waiting for us at the airport. I will definitely book again for a longer tour the next time I am in Kenya!

They were fantastic safaris with our driver possessing a wealth of background knowledge!
In January, my son and I went on a 7-day safari. We explored a new area every day and were amazed by the incredible diversity of wildlife. Our guide, Jackton, contributed greatly to this, sharing a wealth of background information about the natural world and the lives of the Kenyan people.
The changing accommodations were very well organized, and my gluten-free diet worked out perfectly!
It remains an unforgettable holiday in a beautiful country—thank you so much!
Many thanks to Jackton, who spared no road to show us the Big Five! 👏

Perfect private safari
We did a 7-day private safari for two in Kenya and it was a fantastic experience. The itinerary included Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli, and every destination offered amazing landscapes and unforgettable wildlife sightings.
Before the trip, Elijah communicated with us extremely well, answered all our questions quickly, and made sure everything was smoothly organized in advance.
Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, professional, humorous and genuinely passionate about wildlife. He always knew where to find the animals and made every game drive exciting and informative.
We stayed in „Sopa“ accommodations throughout the trip, all of which were very comfortable. The food was served buffet-style with plenty of choice, and there was something for everyone, including gluten-free options (when needed).
Seeing elephants in Amboseli with Mount Kilimanjaro, big cats in the Masai Mara while they were feeding, and rhinos at Lake Nakuru were once-in-liftetime moments.
This safari exceeded our expectations and we can highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality (private) safari experience in Kenya.

Great tour, great guide
We really loved our tour with Evans.
He was always keen to find all the animals we wanted to see, and was always patient when we wanted to spend more time watching them.
I couldn't have asked for a better guide.
