Incredible Kenyan safari!
Our group of 7 decided to go with Tukutane for our first safari and we were blown away! It exceeded our expectations greatly. The communication before and during the safari was amazing and the logistics were planned out so well. Our guide Joseph was both an amazing guide and person. They said a guide can make or break your safari and he truly made it, he cared about us and making sure we got the best experience possible. The 7 day itinerary which hit Amboseli, Maasai Mara, Lake Nukura, Lake Navaisha, and Hell’s Gate was perfectly crafted as well. 10/10 would recommend Tukutane and Joseph to all travelers looking for the best possible experience!

Friendly and proactive customer service and a wonderfully organized itinerary!
Tukutane gave my group and me a wonderful experience preparing for the trip and throughout the trip. Many of my questions about logistics and food allergy concerns were promptly answered before the trip. Our tour guide, Joseph, was very kind and accommodating to my group’s needs. One day he brought us to a tree at sunset to take our pictures! He was also knowledgeable about all animals, local architecture, and other random topics about Kenya. All lodging, food, and travel were seamlessly taken care of and we felt safe at every point of our journey. We could not have asked for a more positive safari experience!

Joseph was truly the best tour guide we could've received. Funny, knowledgeable, and safe!
Tukutane Kenya Safaris prepared a wonderful experience for myself and my group. We had great accommodations for each safari game drive (Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and Maasai Mara). Our tour guide drove safely and ensured we saw the Big 5 and the Ugly 5. I would 100% go on another safari game drive with Tukutane if possible. Also, while the cost pp is considered mid-tier, i would say we got an experience worth more than what we paid for.

A great operator who put together an amazing itinerary with a a knowledgeable guide.
Tukutane was very responsive and easy to communicate with. The safari was amazing and worth every penny, as we had an expert guide (Joseph) and great accommodations. Would highly recommend to anyone interested in a fairly priced safari!

The Perfect Guides for perfect adventure
They stuck to everything we agreed on, and they were very precise about that.
We had everything we needed.
We combined several visits to ensure perfect organization.
Had to combine the beach part with these visits, since we organized everything ourselves.
I thing that we had the Perfect Guides for the perfect adventure.

Excellent safari tour operator
We did a one-day safari tour from Nairobi with Tukutane Kenya Safaris in March 2026, which included a half-day game drive in Nairobi National Park, a visit to the Giraffe Centre to see the Rothschild giraffes, and a stop at the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (Elephant Sanctuary).
The communication with the company was excellent, and the tour offered great value for money. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. Everything went exactly according to plan and as agreed, which made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable.
This was not our first safari trip in Kenya, but it was definitely the best. I can highly recommend this company.

A top-notch local agency!

(For French speakers) If you're comfortable with the language barrier and speak English, you can contact them without any problem. For the price, they were excellent. I got numerous quotes elsewhere, and they were the best and most responsive. They offer a wide range of accommodation options. Personally, the two I chose for Maasai Mara (Keekorok Mara) and Amboseli (Oltukai Lodge) were really great. The accommodation in Naivasha (Panorama Hotel) was a bit dated, but the rest—the restaurant and the view—were absolutely fantastic! 👍 Joseph, who was with us the whole time, is a superb driver. He has excellent eyesight for spotting animals and was very pleasant company for the stay, even though my English wasn't perfect, making long conversations difficult. As for the person from the Swahili agency, she was incredibly responsive throughout our exchange via WhatsApp and even checked in on us after our arrival in Diani (a trip we booked ourselves). The only point I could mention is perhaps the lack of information about travel times between each location. I miscalculated the driving time, so I slightly regretted only booking one night in Amboseli and, above all, not asking about trains or other information that could have helped organize the rest of our trip. This would have saved us a five-hour drive to catch a flight to Diani. In short, we spent two nights in Maasai (one afternoon and one full day), one night in Naivasha (a quick afternoon in Hellsgate by bike and two hours exploring Naivasha and Crescent Island), and one night in Amboseli (two hours in the late afternoon and two hours in the morning at sunrise). If you're planning this itinerary, it's perfect, but I'd recommend spending two nights in Amboseli.
And if you want to head to the beaches near Diani or Mombasa, definitely consider taking the train! 😂) What's certain is that I highly recommend this agency and the whole team! Thank you to them for everything! 🙏

The tour operator is very reliable and quick to respond to emails, also they are very accomodating.
Our booking for the trek on mt. Kenya was really easy, we got a detailed itinerary, which was very helpful. I had some problems with sending my down payment through a wire transfer, so they made a payment link, where I could easily pay with my credit card.
The pickup was very punctual and we got driven in a comfortable van.
The trek itself went without any problems, we had a wonderful team of cooks, porters and guides who do the most amazing work! They offered us tea as soon as we sat down in the accomodations and the food was also wonderful. Our guide was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the wildlife and flora on mt. Kenya. When summiting we encountered quite a lot of snow, but with the mastery of our guide we managed to conquer this beautiful mountain.
All in all it was the most special experience in all of our vacation.
Deep thanks again to Cecilia, Peterson, Peter, Pirip, Patrick and Jay.
