Well organized and structured tour operator
5/5

It was a really good experience for us. We saw lot of wild animals, we never saw before. Moses our guide was a very structured guide. We have gotten lot of information about the Massai Mara and all the wild animals. He was very commited that we could see the Kenyas "big Five".
He likes his job so much and you can feel that. He is a very good driver also, he is used to that.

Superb experience
5/5

3 days in Massai Mara. Many thanks to George, our guide, who was brilliant and taught us many things about local life and wildlife. Seeing the animals of the savannah up close was a great experience.

Masaï Mara 3 days
5/5

3 wonderful days at the Masai Mara. Daniel, our driver / guide was fantastic. We were able, thanks to his insight, to see lions, leopards, cheetahs… He made us discover the savannah in all its splendor. The lodge where we stayed is a few kilometers from a gate to the reserve. it is immaculately kept and the tents are very comfortable. meals are simple but plentiful. I highly recommend African Home Adventure, both in terms of the organization, timing and cost of the stay. It will be an unforgettable stay. thank you again to Daniel who is an outstanding driver.

George is the best guide ever
5/5

I like George because he liked to talk to kids, and I’m really social. He told us a lot of things about the animals. George was very funny and made jokes with us too, he also kept me busy and occupied so that my mom had some time to herself. If you have a kid my age of 9 I think they would love a tour with George

George was the best!
5/5

We booked our tour through Enchoro Wildlife camp which used African Home Safairs for the guide. George picked us up from our hotel on time and explained the itenary for our time with him and provided our options to us clearly.

From the time of pick up George was amazing, making sure to point out all points of interest, give us time to take photos and breaks on our way to the Mara.

George’s knowledges and expertise about the animals and the park were top notch. He was so kind and professional and super great with kids!

The food and accommodations at Enchoro Wildlife camp were fantastic, the food was great and the showers were hot! I would recommend this company and George especially to everyone!

Excellent
5/5

We did the 8 Days-Amboseli-Lake Naivasha-Lake Bogoria-Lake Tour. & traveled in a group of 5 pax. All 5 of us were extremely happy with all the arrangements made by African Home Adventure Safaris.

Right from booking with Albert, who answered all our emails patiently - to our beyond excellent guide George, who is the perfect combination of knowledge (animals, photos and what tourists want!) and fun (he really made our trip more memorable!)

We loved everything about the Safari. Africa is absolutely beautiful and this 8 day trip was a great start to covering most of the important parks.

I didn't love Lake Bogoria (only flamingoes & you'll see them at other places) - advise you do an extra day at Maasai instead.

But overall we found the tour to be excellent on all counts. Have already recommended African Home Adventures to friends. 5 Star +

Well coordinated safari trip in Kenya and tanzania
5/5

It's been a very pleasant experience. Albert had been very accommodative. The entire safari was planned to the minutest detail and we cherished every moment of it.

Custom Tour of Masai Mara and Amboseli with George Otieno!
5/5

It was one of those things.. we thought “wouldn’t it be amazing if...” and suddenly it was happening. We had 6 days in total to go somewhere, we just didn’t realise it was going to be Kenya! I had been searching the internet for ideas but only came across the usual city breaks or beach holidays and then I remembered seeing some beautiful pictures on a friend’s Facebook page, of his recent trip to Kenya. Nigel B was very kind to share his research with us and answer all our queries and even put us I touch with his highly recommended tour guides from ‘Africa Home Adventures’.

Arranging the tour:
Mr Albert Ouko was the Senior Tour Advisor and our main contact. We told Albert we we thinking of about the trip and he helped us make it a reality. It was important to let him know how many full days we could be there for and our potential flight details. He worked out a bespoke tour considering our requests, and preferences. He was even available on WhatsApp for queries and responded extremely promptly. When we requested, he also provided us with weblinks to photos and details of the accommodation so that we had an idea before we booked and arrived at the tented camps. Albert is very patient and works hard to ensure his guests have the best trip possible.

He also arranged for us to be picked up directly from the airport and greeted us with a pleasant welcome despite having to wait over four hours after a delay to our scheduled flight. Our experience with Albert set the tone for the rest of the trip and made us feel very comfortable and welcome.

The ‘Driver Guide’:
Your guide can make or break your experience and ours certainly made our trip, one we will never forget. We actually miss George now having spent just 5 days with him. George is a man of countless stories and invaluable experience from over 15 years in the field. He too waited patiently with Albert for over 4 hours in the early cold hours of the morning we were arriving. Over the next 5 days George was our driver, tour guide, friend and go to person for anything we needed. He’s done this so long, he sorted everything. He explained everything at every step of the way, forewarned us of what to expect, and drove extremely well and safely - we slept like babies on the long drive between locations. He has an incredibly friendly nature and is extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, the national parks and game reserves. At one of the accommodation sites that appeared like it might be too busy, given his experience George sensed the need to act quickly and made sure we were looked after and had the best cottage available. Sections of the route to both Masai Mara as well as Amboseli are dirt tracks and get very dusty which aggravated a cough I had. George and Albert were thoughtful and caring to remind me to buy cough syrup to help.

The drive to Amboseli directly from Masai Mara is a very long journey but George handled it like a pro, took regular breaks and drove very safely. We enjoyed our chats along the way and will take back many memories of a laughter filled road trip.

My friend Nigel recommended George, and I would highly recommend him again. You spend no less than 15 hours a day together and we could not have had a better companion on this trip.

Masai Mara and Amboseli:
We found our that this was an unusual combination we had chosen for our Safari, as due to the long journey, people often make a stopover in between. Ours was direct from the Mara to Amboseli and if you’re thinking about doing just these two locations, it’s worth knowing it takes a whole day to drive from one to the other. We were made to feel very comfortable, but it will be a tiring drive for your guide - having said that, it’s certainly doable and indeed George informed us that we were not the first. Despite the long journey, George had an incredibly jovial demeanour.

Of the many parks you could visit I would highly recommend visiting Amboseli - it’s smaller than Masai Mara but by no means ‘small’ and a whole different landscape and ecosystem.

Both Masai Mara and Amboseli were truly amazing and we were sad to leave when our days were up.

The staff at both locations; Jacob, Janet, Jonathan, Paul - made us feel very welcome and comfortable.

We rate our experience with Africa Home Adventures, Albert and George as excellent and would highly recommend them for anyone interested.
