Excellent time at Maasai Mara with Jack who tailored the experience to our interests wonderfully!
We loved our experience from beginning to end! From the interesting drive with beautiful landscapes to the incredible journey through the reserve to the warm welcome at our overnight camp at Mara Enkajiang. Jack was a terrific guide, providing safe travel and thoughtful ways of make the trip special for us. He was knowledgeable about the birds and animals and the places to look for them in the reserve. We truly had a marvelous time. He went above and beyond in guiding us on the weekend safari expedition! (We did feel that there was room to improve the communication from the tour company to our guide so that he was better informed regarding the finances and what had been paid for in advance.) Thank you again for a marvelous experience!

Discover Kenya's hidden gems (nature & community)
Was our first time in Kenya. Diana asked about the way we like to travel and created a personalised package. We trusted all recommendations and it turned out even better than we ever expected. We appreciated how Diana chose destinations that make the trip special. Either because they are hidden gems so that you are almost alone in the national parc and can spot the animals without standing in a tourist row, or because they are community driven (e.g. empowering women in a sustainable way). Diana was always very responsive and kind. Excellent communication. Together with her partner they have an excellent local network, which can be helpful in case of unforeseen circumstances. We did Meru, Samburu , Lewaso cottages +twala women community, hiking at mount Kenya, train to Mombasa +snorkeling at Diana beach. Traveled with teenage kids, they also loved it .

Our Kenyan family
For a family that has been to Africa on a few occasions, Epic, unbelievable, flexible, awesome, and adventurous are all words that fall well short of the experiences both us and our daughter had with James and Jemu Mwenda Expeditions.
Our itinerary was put together over about a six month period because we had planned on such a long holiday (56 days). Our itinerary changed on the ground as we took part in some incredible experiences, James and the team made these changes seem less and without trouble. The question is not who should we travel with in Africa, but when can we travel next! Can not recommend Jemu enough.

Stunning country
My trio was spectacular, we hot to see plenty of wildlife and enjoy the nature.
The only downside was the hotels offered, i chose a middle budget safari and however the hotels werent dirty or anything, they werent super clean. Also they offered me on my quotation different hotels to the ones that i end up sleeping into.
The food was ok.
If you get the chance to do the hot air balloon ride, do it. You wont regret it at all. It was by far on of my highlights.
The people were also friendly and i felt safe in the country most of the time as female solo traveler.

Excellent 15 day safari covering parks in the north east, central and south of Kenya
Best memories organised a super holiday with a 15 day safari and 6 days on the coast. Everything was very good in all of the parks even the medium level ones. Food was good and the people very friendly. Anthony was an excellent driver/guide and we literally saw everything from the big and and ugly five to kills and elephants mating.
