Our guide Kelvin Mimi is so helpful and considerate.He was always listening to our requirements and plan the best solutions.Furthermore he was so generous to buy each group member fruits when we were just thirsty on the way. On the safari days, He always turned the steering wheel in time, heading towards the most thrilling animal sightings.

My Kenyan Safari Guide Kevin: A Wilderness Journey Illuminated by Expertise and Warmth

If Kenya’s savanna is the most breathtaking canvas on Earth, then my guide Kevin is the artist who brought every detail of it to life. What truly set this trip apart was his unmatched local knowledge—he didn’t just point out the Big Five; he shared stories of a lion pride’s daily routine he’d tracked for months, and even led us to a hidden watering hole where we watched elephants bathe at sunrise, a spot most tourists never find.

Beyond his professionalism, Kevin’s genuine care turned a great safari into an unforgettable one. When my friend felt unwell one morning, he had a first-aid kit ready and adjusted our route to keep her comfortable, without making the rest of us feel like we were missing out. He also took the time to explain the delicate balance of the ecosystem, making every sighting feel not just exciting, but meaningful.

By the end of the trip, Kevin wasn’t just our guide—he was someone who helped us connect with Kenya’s wilderness, not as spectators, but as guests. If you’re planning a Kenyan safari, choosing Kevin means you’re not just booking a tour; you’re signing up for a journey that’s personal, informed, and full of heart.

A Five-Star Safari Adventure with the Best Guide in Kenya: Stevo

If you’re planning a Safari in Kenya and wondering who to trust with your once-in-a-lifetime experience, look no further than Stevo—our guide, our storyteller, and the reason our trip to Amboseli, Masai Mara, and beyond was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we landed in Nairobi to the second we hugged goodbye at the airport, Stevo’s expertise, passion, and warm personality turned a great vacation into an unforgettable memory, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Our 7-day journey began with Amboseli National Park, and Stevo set the tone immediately. He arrived at our hotel early, As we drove toward Amboseli, he didn’t just point out landmarks—he wove stories about Kenya’s history, the Maasai culture, and the delicate ecosystem that makes Amboseli so unique. “Amboseli isn’t just about elephants,” he told us with a smile. “It’s about how they live with the land, the birds that follow them, and that backdrop—the mighty Kilimanjaro.” True to his word, our first morning in the park was magical: we spotted a herd of over 30 elephants grazing near a watering hole, their silhouettes perfectly framed by Kilimanjaro’s snow-capped peak. Stevo knew exactly where to position for the best photos (no awkward angles, no crowds blocking the view) and waited patiently while we snapped shot after shot, never rushing us. He even shared pro tips—“Wait for the baby to lift its trunk; that’s the money shot!”—that made our photos look like they belonged in a National Geographic spread.

After Amboseli, we headed to the Masai Mara, and this is where Stevo’s skills as a Safari guide truly shone. The Mara is vast, and spotting the Big Five can feel like finding a needle in a haystack—but not with Stevo. He has an uncanny ability to read the land: he’d stop to listen to birds calling (a sign of predators nearby), track fresh paw prints in the dirt, and even notice subtle movements in the grass that we would have missed entirely. On our second afternoon in the Mara, he whispered, “Let’s follow that vulture—they don’t circle for nothing.” Ten minutes later, we were watching a pride of lions feast on a wildebeest, the males lounging nearby while the cubs played tug-of-war with a bone. It was raw, beautiful, and completely unscripted—and Stevo made sure we experienced it respectfully, keeping a safe distance and never disturbing the animals. Later that week, he led us to a leopard draped over a tree branch (a rare sight, even for seasoned travelers), a family of rhinos wallowing in mud, and a herd of buffalo thundering across the savanna. By the end of our time in the Mara, we’d checked off all five of the Big Five—and then some.

What sets Stevo apart isn’t just his ability to find animals, though. It’s his deep respect for Kenya’s wildlife and people, and his desire to share that respect with his guests. One evening, he arranged a visit to a nearby Maasai village, and instead of treating it like a “tourist stop,” he prepared us beforehand: he taught us basic Maasai greetings, explained their traditions (like the importance of cattle and the role of warriors), and reminded us to ask questions rather than just take photos. When we arrived, the Maasai welcomed us with songs and dances, and Stevo translated our conversations, turning a brief visit into a meaningful cultural exchange. He even bought us traditional Maasai beadwork as a small gift, saying, “This is how we honor our guests.” It was a small gesture, but it spoke volumes about his kindness.


If you’re looking for a Safari guide who is knowledgeable, passionate, kind, and dedicated to giving you the best experience possible, Stevo is the one. He doesn’t just show you Kenya—he makes you fall in love with it. Our trip to Amboseli and Masai Mara was the trip of a lifetime, and none of it would have been the same without him. Thank you, Stevo, for sharing your country with us, for your patience, your stories, and your heart. We will be back, and we will only travel with you. Five stars aren’t enough—you deserve ten.

5/5

Our safari across Kenya’s most iconic landscapes—Masai Mara, Amboseli, and Lake Naivasha—was elevated from “incredible” to “life-long memory” because of one person: our guide, Stevo. When it comes to safari expertise, passion, and care, he’s in a league of his own.

Perfect trip! Perfect Jungleroam! Perfect guide Francis!
5/5

A truly wonderful travel experience. I highly recommend Jungleroam Travel! I also highly recommend our guide, Francis! His eye for animals is unmatched, and we spotted nearly every animal we wanted to see. We even got tired of seeing lions, and we even got to see elusive leopards up close. He also has incredible driving skills and a fantastic eye for photography, always securing the perfect vantage point for stunning photos. He's always punctual, never late! He always showed up on time for our scheduled departure the next day, which completely exceeded my expectations. He also provided a lot of emotional value along the way, constantly inspiring enthusiasm and passion for the journey. I've already recommended Francis to everyone I know who's thinking of visiting Kenya. I'm sure he won't have time to rest for the next year, as he's sure to be one of Kenya's most sought-after guides.

Our guide is the best in the world.
5/5

Our guide is the best in the world. He excels at finding the perfect camera angles and has an in-depth understanding of the habits and movement patterns of small animals. On multiple occasions, he positioned us early at specific spots, waiting for lions and leopards to pass right in front of us. This gave us a high chance of capturing photos with lions, leopards, and people in the same frame.

He is also incredibly skilled at anticipating animal behavior among a cluster of vehicles, even creating opportunities for animals to cross the road right before us. For particularly rare and precious photographic moments, while others might only get one chance, our guide persistently sought out opportunities for us to witness them multiple times. He was almost like a "wishing well"—every morning, we'd "order" sightings of lions, leopards, or rare animal behaviors, and he would do his utmost to fulfill our requests.

With his eagle-eyed vision, he could spot even the smallest animals from great distances. For instance, he once pointed out critically endangered black-and-white colobus monkeys from at least 200 meters away. His sharp eyes often made him the lead vehicle, directing others to the action. Even a group of a dozen young lions hiding in the grass couldn’t escape his notice, allowing us to enjoy such scenes almost exclusively.

Our guide was also exceptional at providing emotional support. He created his own motivational slogans, offering encouragement at the end of each day as we experienced "safari withdrawal," keeping us energized and happy throughout. He fulfilled every request we made.

Another crucial point is his punctuality. Throughout our eight or nine days together, he was never late—always arriving on time. To enhance our experience, he often agreed to start early upon our request, conducting morning safari drives. So, if you're planning a trip to Africa, you definitely can’t miss the opportunity to safari with him.

we met the best guide Francis!
5/5

We were very lucky to meet jungleroam and the guide Francis this time. Before coming here, I was a little nervous. Regarding Africa, we had fantasies and fears about the unknown, not knowing what we would encounter here. But jungleroam's chesi arranged everything and offered a very fair price. When we saw Francis, his big smile instantly reassured us.
Francis has been a guide for 15 years. He has excellent driving skills (which are really important for the poor roads in Kenya), and he has eagle-like eyes that can find all kinds of animals on the grassland. These days, we have witnessed countless lions, elephant herds, cheetahs, leopards, rhinos, hippos, crocodiles and so on. Moreover, Francis is always able to predict the trajectories of the animals and drive there in advance. We saw an elephant crossing Mount Kilimanjaro in the first row of the sea of vehicles and spending a long time alone with two lions in the vast Masai Mara. If I could do it all over again, I would definitely choose Francis.We were very lucky to meet jungleroam and the guide Francis this time. Before coming here, I was a little nervous.
