Amazing Safari with Alberto
Chesi is good and reliable. All hotels is good. Alberto our guide is nice and try to find animals for us .
Budget safari without feeling like it was budget for even a single minute
Everything was fantastic from start to finish. Elias was always ready to answer one of my thousands of questions.
Pick-up at the hotel was smooth, the drive to the Maasai Mara was enjoyable, and sleeping in the tents felt authentic.
Elias guided us to countless animals (lions, antelopes, buffaloes, elephants, and a phenomenal sunset).
We are a Belgian family of four (2 adults, a 9-year-old daughter, and a 7-year-old son). Even the kids thought it was magical and now understand the true meaning of "hakuna matata"!
This was a budget safari, but you honestly wouldn't have noticed—unless you count the fact that we didn’t have a fridge in the vehicle (but had an extra seat instead), or that we enjoyed lunch on a picnic blanket instead of foldable chairs. :)

8-Day Safari Memories: The Most Reliable Guide Jeff, Who Showed Us the True Wild Beauty
Our 8-day safari journey in Kenya left me with more than just memories of vast wildebeest migrations or lions and cheetahs roaming the savanna. What truly made it unforgettable was our calm and dependable guide—Jeff.
Jeff is 38 years old and the father of four children. He doesn’t talk much, but from day one, he gave off a strong sense of reliability and steadiness. With excellent driving skills and a sharp eye, he knows the behavior of animals and the rhythm of the land like the back of his hand. Throughout the journey, he stayed focused, always observing carefully and choosing the best spots for us to watch and photograph wildlife. No matter the weather, he never complained.
He’s an incredibly smooth driver. Even with long, bumpy drives and kids in the car, we always felt completely safe—and could even nap in peace during the ride.
One of the most unforgettable moments was when we were about to leave the Maasai Mara National Reserve, just approaching the gate. Suddenly, Jeff heard a cheetah sighting come through the radio. Before we even had time to react, he hit the gas and sped back into the park—making a sharp U-turn and racing deep into the reserve toward where a leopard had reportedly appeared. It was in that moment I realized Jeff wasn’t just checking off boxes—he genuinely wanted us to witness the most extraordinary and complete side of African wildlife.
During the days we spent waiting by the Mara River to see the wildebeest crossing, Jeff consistently picked the best spots. He could tell where the herds would gather and hesitate before crossing, and he’d position us perfectly to capture the action. While other guides were still circling around, Jeff had already locked in the ideal view. More than once, he even ignored park rangers trying to usher us away—determined to let us see the most breathtaking scenes. Those herds thundering down the riverbank, crocodiles lurking in the water—those images are burned into my memory.
On the last day, we all went quiet in the car. No one wanted to get out. We were reluctant to say goodbye—to the journey, to the wild, and especially to Jeff. He wasn’t just a “driver” or a “translator.” He was our companion, and the bridge between us and nature.
If you’re planning a safari in Kenya, I wholeheartedly recommend Jeff and the JungleRoam team. He may not be the most talkative guide, but he will definitely be the one who brings you face-to-face with the wild miracles of Africa.

Two wonderful days safari
James gichina is our guide,James took us on a two-day wonderful and fulfilling safari. He was great and always took us to the best spots for shooting. The two-day itinerary was very full. We saw many animals, such as baboons, giraffes, lions, etc. They were at ease in this vast grassland. Getting close to nature makes people happy!

Excellent !
WOW! What a great experience. From start to finish of our 7 day safari in Kenya, Jungle Roam Safari handled everything with utmost care and thorough professionalism. Very easy to deal with and very reliable with very prompt with all communications.
On top of everything our tour guide Kush was a top quality professional. Very knowledgeable, courteous, friendly, funny and most of all made sure that we had a fantastic experience with attention to detail and delivering safari experiences more and above our expectations. Kush is a great photographer too and took us some stunning photos to take back home of our amazing memories of the safaris. Great guy!
I have no hesitation in recommending Jungle Roam Safaris and our fantastic tour guide Kush for an excellent safari experience.

Affordable, trustworthy and organised, an unforgettable safari with JungleRoam and Julius!
I want to start with thanking our guide, Julius (or his nickname, Juli) and the person behind JungleRoam, Chesi.
Skeptical at first, but our worries were diminished with Chesi's timely replies and other glowing reviews from fellow travellers.
Our recent 7-day safari with JungleRoam was nothing short of extraordinary, and we owe so much of that to our incredible guide, Julius. From the moment we were picked up to our final goodbye, everything was handled with such professionalism, warmth, and expertise that we truly felt we were in the best hands.
We had 6 persons, formed our own private tour and explored Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Hell’s Gate, and Amboseli National Park – each destination offering a unique experience that built on the last. The LandCruiser provided was in great condition, could handle rough terrain, clean and very comfortable for our group of 6 with a medium sized luggage each - coupled with Juli's great driving skills of course.
JungleRoam clearly knows how to plan the perfect itinerary, balancing breathtaking wildlife encounters with moments of cultural insight and scenic beauty. We stayed in a mix of budget camps and mid-range lodges, given that JungleRoam was so kind as to accommodate to our custom requests.
Masai Mara blew us away with its abundance of wildlife. Thanks to Juli’s sharp eye and deep knowledge of animal behavior, we were always the first to spot animals before the crowd comes. This resulted in many intimate moments with the animals and some great photos. His ability to track animals and position us for the best views (without disturbing the wildlife) was beyond impressive.
In Lake Nakuru, Julius timed everything perfectly and we saw elusive black rhinos thanks to his good eyes.
Naivasha and Hell’s Gate offered a different kind of thrill. Hiking in the gorges in Hell’s Gate felt surreal. While we were hiking, Juli spotted oil dripping from the vehicle and immediately sent it to repair - his friends picked us up from the trail. This is no fault of Juli/JungleRoam as the terrain is extremely rough where vehicle breakdowns are a norm, and we are lucky to have Juli spot the problem before it became something much bigger - imagine your car breaking down in the middle of nowhere, that'd be much worse! Juli also inspects and cleans the vehicle after the day ends and we felt safe and secure under his wings.
And then came Amboseli. The sight of elephants roaming beneath the snow-capped peak of Mount Kilimanjaro is something we’ll never forget. Juli knows all the huge tuskers by name and could easily identify them by just looking at their tusks. We were incredibly lucky to see all 3 of the largest elephants in the park! Julius seemed to know every inch of the park and made sure we got those iconic, once-in-a-lifetime photos.
Beyond his guiding skills, Julius is a wonderful person—kind, funny, patient, and endlessly knowledgeable. He made us feel like more than tourists; he made us feel like friends and even family. Every question we had (and we had a lot!) was met with enthusiasm and insight.
The accommodations, the vehicle comfort, the seamless transitions between parks, and the care with which everything was handled all reflect the high standards of JungleRoam. It’s rare to find a tour company that delivers on every promise—and then goes above and beyond.
If you’re considering a safari in Kenya, look no further than JungleRoam, and if you’re lucky enough to get Julius as your guide, prepare yourself for the adventure of a lifetime. Juli made us fall in love with our first safari and I will not hesitate to go back if the opportunity comes again!
Thank you, JungleRoam and Julius, for making our dream safari come true!
