I wholeheardtedly recommend
The safari organized by your company was truly amazing. Samson was very nice and careful, he has a lot of knowledge about animals. We felt good and safe with him. We recomended you to all our friends and if we visit your beautiful country again, we will be happy to have Samson as our guide. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING!

The best tour guide in the world, recommend him to everyone wanting a transformative experience
This changed my entire life. Me and my friend were studying abroad and had the chance to do a safari and it was the best part of our entire semester. Komora was the best guide and driver and made our whole experience, we got picked up from the cruise port and drove to Tsavo. Best best best safari i can’t wait to do it again.

Caring and loving
Alfred and Nicholas organised a dream Safari for me and my family. Great places to visit and to stay! We drove with Samson and he was the main character in our story. He made sure we’d spot the Big 5. He made it his purpose to fulfil our dream and was very concerned about our expectations and overall experience. We
Got from him all the facts, stories and more, about the country, about the places and most of all the animals.
Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli, all spectacular places to visit, culture to meet and the Animals… it was what we imagined and more.
We did a balloon safari experience in Amboseli and got a great view of the Kilimanjaro from above the clouds. Highly recommended!
Iyana Africa Tours very reliable and you can trust they get you what you want. We can say we left new friends in Africa!

A faultless compact safari
From the start I communicated with Nicholas , who got back to me so quickly, was so friendly and professional and was happy to tailor my tour how I needed and gave me multiple options.
Then we were met by Nicholas, Alfred and our driver Samson at the airport which was a lovely welcome.
We did the two day private Masai Mara safari with a balloon ride as we were limited on time but we did not leave feeling like we were missing out on any experiences.
As soon as we arrived in the Masai Mara we were very lucky to see so much so soon. In one afternoon game drive we saw many iconic animals, as well as 4 of the big 5 (no rhino) but to be expected. But also was lucky enough to spot a Marshall eagle with a fresh kill dragging it along the grass, a serval hunting and a hippo asleep on the sandbank at the hotel where you wait for your balloon ride.
The Balloon ride was unforgettable. Really recommend this addition for a special touch to your safari.
All of the above was so seamlessly organised from start to finish and Samson made sure everything ran smoothly whilst we were under his care and had great knowledge to share.
Thank you all so much for a memorable experience in the Masai Mara , if I ever come back to Kenya I will be contacting this safari company again.
Impactful memories for a lifetime
Iyana Tours and our driver Komora gave my husband and I a trip we’ll remember for the rest of our lives. We’re already looking forward to our next safari in a couple years.
From the beginning, communicating with Alfred via email was quick, efficient, and he had a high level of accuracy in the planning that made me trust Iyana even though they had few reviews when I began communicating last fall. I’m glad I took a chance with this company because the safari turned out unforgettable. Not a single detail was spared and I truly appreciated the care and attention given to our itinerary.
We spent three days in the Mara, then went to Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha. At each location, Komora did his best to ensure we saw all the animals we possibly could. We saw the big five, ugly five, and endless birds. We had an amazing time and now I truly understand why some people say Africa touches the soul. It undoubtedly touched mine.
Thank you to the team for everything!

Superb wildlife tour of 7 parks in Kenya
I have just returned to Nairobi after a superb 10-day photography tour of seven national parks and nature reserves in Kenya (Samburu, Ol Pejeta, Lake Nakuru, Hells Gate, Maasai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli). The opportunities for wildlife and scenery photography were surreal. It was quite uncanny how my driver/guide Shem delivered us to so many amazing wildlife encounters with perfect timing, so that I could get some beautiful photos. We saw so many elephants, rhinos, hippos, buffaloes, giraffes, lions, cheetah and leopard, plus many species of antelope, small mammals and birds. The tour was fast paced but well organised and accommodations, food and service was of high quality. Overall it was a fantastic experience and excellent value for the price. I highly recommend the friendly and professional team at Iyana Africa for your wildlife adventure in Kenya
