Kenya is an amazing country to visit
The trip itself flowed seamlessly and we didn't have to think about any logistics, we could just enjoy the experience. Our travel planner Susan was attentive to our likes/wants/needs and made sure our trip came together wonderfully. We were a small group of 7 people in the same 4x4 which is enough in terms of space. Please note that we bring max. 70 cm luggage per couple. Otherwise there is no more room for the luggage in the vehicle. The driver was young and attentive and good to follow up animal leads. We saw big 5, Ugly 5. The roads in Kenya are not good and there are separated roads only in the large cities. While traveling between camps the driver needs to pass lots of trucks in a row. Hotels were 4-star except one in Naivasha which is changed at the last minute. It was not a good hotel although its location is perfect. Amboseli part is far and difficult road, better to think twice. I believe after visiting Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara no need to go Amboseli as the number of animals are much less than both reserves. Well I can recommend a more slower pace such as 8-days only Masai Mara and ake Nakuru.

Exceeded expectations
We travelled with African Hartbeest for 10 days from 24 November until 03 December. From start to finish the experience was faultless. Beverly was extremely helpful, making time for a call to discuss our expectations and putting together an itinerary that she felt would suit us. She was responsive and kept us updated with payment and receipts.
Our flight was significantly delayed but that wasn’t a problem and we were picked up and escorted from the airport early in the morning, Beverly even called to ask if we wanted to leave later the following morning.
We spent the week with a tour guide named Edwin and he was friendly, extremely knowledgeable and kept us entertained throughout the whole tour.
We were absolutely gutted to leave Kenya, the whole experience was 10/10 and not only do I want to go back and do it all again, I will happily recommend it to anybody looking for a holiday that surpasses all expectations.

Drove around Kruger National Park and saw many animals. Only missed the Leopard as it the weather was too hot! Eddie, our guide was friendly and funny.

Friendly staff
Overall the tour was great. Lightness was very quick to reply to all my emails and arranged everything that I have requested. That was the main reason I chose Brilliant instead of other tour companies. All the accommodations were good and lunches were tasty with salads and fruits. If the vehicle was in better condition, the whole trip would have been perfect.

Simple Amazing!
It was a wonderful journey! We did the Comfort-Tour for 5 days but it felt more like the luxury Tour; the campsites we're wonderful, the tents just amazingly nice and the Staffel was always friendly and helpful.
The Wakanda-Staff was very nice and helpdesk us to make this Trip an unforgetable experiences.
Andrew, our guide,knows the parks like no other and always picked the best spots; thanks to him we saw more animals than we could wish for (e.g. all of the Big5 and Ugly5 and many others). Also he was a blast to hang around, always funny and helpful. We could not with for a bester Guide!
Thanks Andrew! And Wakanda forever!

My experience was truly unforgettable
My friend and I went on a 5-day safari with Agustino, which included two nights in lodges and two nights camping. We weren’t sure what to expect - what we were met with was the thrill of a lifetime. If you’re nervous about camping, don’t be. It’s a magical experience to wake up amidst the zebras just in time for sunrise, and I wouldn’t have wanted to do it any other way. The food was always warm, delicious, and made with love - while other groups had lunch boxes, we always picnicked with a full spread of delicious dishes prepared that morning. And Agustino himself was awesome, I cannot compliment him enough! He answered all of our questions and showed us more wildlife than I could have ever imagined possible to see, and we danced and laughed and made friends for life.
Thank you!!!

Had a great safari with Joseph
We had a wonderful safari experience! Our guide Joseph was amazing- extremely knowledgeable and truly outstanding at finding and identifying animals (even rhinos which were very far away) while driving! The food was delicious and plentiful. We had a slight error in our reservation because the person we booked with had left the company, which resulted in us waiting a little bit at the airport, but Ally stayed late to make sure we got sorted out- including putting us in a nicer hotel than expected the first night- and they absolutely made up for any small inconvenience with amazing hospitality. Daniel was waiting for us when we arrived back and they made it easy to get our luggage and get to our next location. We ended up booking another day tour for the following day with the same group.

Funny and engaging
The tour was a very surreal experience to see the animals up close in person. The group was fun and worked as a team to catch the amazing views. We saw 4 of the big 5 plus some much more. We really enjoy the safari. We only wish we would have stayed at the lodge to have the full experience. Next time!
