Excellent planning and caring guide.
1. Our guide Ombeni is a very experienced, professional, caring trip lead. Not to mention his hawk eye that help us spot many hiding animals like lions, leopards. Ombeni also strongly support us when I felt very sick in the middle of the trip by asking the camp preparing ginger tea and hot water for the night and next day, which saved our trip.
2. Rest of the trip is also good

Mostly great
The tour itself was great and Kikitu was a great tour guide; full of energy, got us in the right places and always happy to have a conversation. He also expertly navigated everyone’s different schedules. Jockey Tours were great in the beginning but a day or 2 before I left, their communication was a bit lacking but as you can imagine they have a lot of people after them. Other than that, everything was great.

An 8-day magical trip to Kenya with jungleroam was great value!
I highly recommend Kevin, Kevin, Kevin, he is professional and enthusiastic, very good at finding animals, and there are surprises everywhere. Let us experience nature up close, and we will come again if we have the chance

Excellent
A heartfelt thank you to Marurumi Travel for the unforgettable safari experience James and I shared. The five-day itinerary was thoughtfully organized—warm, detailed, and full of delightful surprises.
At the start of our journey, we were warmly welcomed by the company owner and our driver Tony, who thoughtfully provided us with reusable water bottles, drinking water, and even sun hats. These small touches proved incredibly useful throughout the trip.
What truly stood out was the companionship of Tony, who accompanied us from Amboseli to Masai Mara like a kind and caring family member. Tony, who is around the same age as my father, shared his deep knowledge of the wildlife on the savannah with humor and passion. He never tired of tracking animals with us and turning every moment into a learning adventure. We felt especially lucky to have spotted all of the Big Five on our very first trip to Kenya!
Despite the long hours on the road each day, Tony remained upbeat and focused, always giving us his best. There were moments when James and I would doze off in the car, completely worn out, but each time we looked up, Tony was still driving with steady concentration—it gave us great peace of mind.
The accommodation exceeded our expectations. Every hotel we stayed at was clean, and some were even surprisingly luxurious. The food was another highlight—although buffet-style, each hotel served delicious and thoughtfully prepared meals. My favorite place was the tented camp in Masai Mara, where we could sit and gaze out at the plains and the evening skies.
All in all, we feel incredibly fortunate to have met Tony. He made our safari journey feel joyful, safe, and deeply memorable.

We had an amazing 4 days safari experience and the planning was really done well. The lodges we stayed at were clean with an amazing view and the service was top class. Overall, an amazing trip and really would recommend it.

excellent, attentive
Amazing value for money! All of our questions were answered quickly before the safari. On the first day, transport/pickup was seamless. The game drive itself was amazing, although I know this is largely based on luck on the day. The food and refreshments were good. The hotel was lovely! Manager was so attentive and friendly. The hike on day 2 was phenomenal, and the lunch was delicious. Only hiccup of the whole trip was a very long wait for the train to depart, however I understand that from a logistical perspective given the long gaps between trains it was easier to book the later one rather than risk missing the earlier one. Overall, a fantastic experience.

Fantastic experience, great value for money
We did a 2 day safari and thoroughly enjoyed it. The transportation from our hotel was seamless with no delays. We spent the first day spotting animals, we saw lions, giraffes, elephants, zebras, crocodiles, hippos, antelopes, monkeys and a variety of birds. Our tour guide (George of the Jungle) was very friendly. The food and accommodation was good and the staff were lovely. The hike on day 2 was excellent, our tour guide was very nice and the waterfall was great. The only downside was a long wait in the train station for our evening train back. Overall it was a fantastic Safari and I would definitely recommend.

Great experience
Great experience from start to finish. Communication was good and all of our questions were answered before the tour itself. Safari was excellent, and our tour guide went out of his way to ensure we got to see as many different animals as possible. Hike was also lovely but I think perhaps more time was allocated than necessary for the hike and lunch as we had a packed lunch so were finished by 2, and then had a bit of a wait for the train which wasn’t until 7.25 but understand that it can be unpredictable to know how long the hike would take. All in all great experience and would highly recommend!
