A rare blend of kindness, professionalism, generosity, and passion that made our safari experience
It's with great nostalgia that we look back on our safari with Alibaba Safaris, accompanied by Georges (Gogo). This trip was far beyond anything we could have hoped for: a marvelous blend of nature, wonder, and unforgettable human encounters.
From the Masai Mara to Lake Nakuru, via Lake Naivasha, we had the chance to observe exceptional wildlife—including the legendary Big Five—in breathtaking landscapes. But what truly marked our experience were the human and professional qualities of Alibaba and Georges. Their kindness, generosity, and sense of service made all the difference.
Always attentive, available, and responsive to our needs and desires, they created a climate of trust and good humor that allowed us to experience this safari with complete peace of mind and joy. They didn't just do their job: they did it with passion, commitment, and a huge heart.
We are deeply grateful for all the moments we shared, for their support that went far beyond what one would expect from a guide, and for making this trip as human as it was extraordinary.
If you're dreaming of a safe, authentic safari led by people as professional as they are endearing, don't hesitate for a second: contact Alibaba (but maybe give him a day off; he's had his hands full with us lately 😂😂).
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Alibaba and Georges. You are now etched in our memories.
Mathilde and Romane.

We had a magical time!
We spent 4 days on a private Jeep safari with Ali and Matano through 3 parks: Amboseli, Taita, and Tsavo East.
Ali took care of the entire organization: pickup in Nairobi, overnight stays at the lodge, park entrances, daily itinerary, and drop-off at our hotel on the coast.
Between laughter and wonder, we spent magical and unforgettable moments on safari discovering the animals and the parks. But not only that: Ali is an incredible guide, who taught us a tremendous amount about Kenya, its customs, and traditions. He can be proud to represent Kenyans the way he does. Moreover, Ali and Matano are very sunny and full of good humor. They speak both French and English perfectly, which made our interactions very easy.
We went as a couple, and as young women, we felt completely safe and very comfortable with them.
The lodges we chose lived up to our expectations, if not better. The meals served and the rooms were impeccable.
Regarding the booking process, Ali accommodated our dates and needs without any hassle. We paid a 30% deposit into the agency's verified account and the remainder at the end of our stay.
In conclusion, we fulfilled our dream with best friends and met such incredible and authentic people! We recommend Grivet Tours & Safaris 1000%.
