Beacon arranged a most memorable safari with great accommodations and a class act guide.
We had an absolutely wonderful time in Kenya. We enjoyed the variety of accommodations and found the staff to be excellent and the food very good at all of them. We really appreciate Beacon organizing this experience. I especially want to express my appreciation for our guide and driver, Alex. His driving skills got us easily through areas where others were getting stuck and his navigation of some of the more challenging roads was quite impressive. His knowledge of the parks and wildlife was incredible. He knew where to best look to ensure that we saw all of the more memorable wildlife and followed leads from others to give us some very incredible sightings. We saw all of the Big 5 and witnessed the flow of the Great Migration from Tanzania into Kenya (including a lion ambushing a zebra as it crossed). He picked up very early in the trip that my wife and I were also interested in birds and he pointed out many of the unique species found in Kenya. I quickly learned to trust his identification of the many mammals and birds that we saw. To sum it up, I can't begin to say enough good things about him. He took what would have been an amazing trip and made it truly unforgettable.

Approachable, friendly and flexible and we get to see the animals!
We exchanged numerous emails over an extended period, and Esther was incredibly patient throughout—offering us various package options tailored to our preferences. She even accommodated our last-minute date changes caused by unexpected flight rescheduling. We were thoroughly impressed with our experienced guide/driver and the well-equipped Toyota Land Cruiser Safari vehicle featuring a pop-up roof. We highly recommend booking a safari adventure with Wildplus Escapades! *we did the one-day Amoboseli safari.

the safari trip with laxa trails was fabulous
I had an incredible 6-day journey through Kenya with Laxa Trails & Travels, and everything exceeded my expectations. Our guide, Glenn, was outstanding and knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing Kenya’s wildlife and landscapes. Every game drive was unforgettable, from spotting the Big Five to watching the sun rise over the savannah.
A big thank you also to Dennis, our trip organizer, whose planning and coordination made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. The accommodations were comfortable, the safari vehicle was clean and perfect for photography, and every detail was handled with care.
This was a safe, well-planned, and truly enriching adventure. I would highly recommend Laxa Trails & Travels, especially Glenn as a guide and Dennis as an organizer, to anyone planning a Kenyan safari.

Very good
This was my first safari, and Laxa Trails & Travels made it a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Glenn, our guide, was exceptional — knowledgeable, kind, and passionate about wildlife. He answered every question with enthusiasm and spotted animals I never would have noticed on my own. Every day felt like a new adventure.
A huge thanks to Dennis, who organized our trip with such precision. Every transfer was smooth, the accommodations were comfortable, and the itinerary was perfectly paced. I felt safe, cared for, and inspired from start to finish. I would wholeheartedly recommend Laxa Trails & Travels, especially Glenn and Dennis, to anyone visiting Kenya

Excellent memorable trip all because of Laxa trails
Our family’s 6-day safari with Laxa Trails & Travels was an absolute dream come true. Glenn was fantastic with all of us — he made sure the kids stayed engaged and taught us so much about Kenya’s animals and culture. His friendly nature made the long drives feel effortless, and he always seemed to know the perfect spots for incredible views.
Dennis organized the trip flawlessly, making sure every part of our journey was stress-free. From comfortable lodges to smooth daily schedules, everything was handled with care. We left Kenya with beautiful memories and a deep appreciation for its wildlife and people, thanks to Glenn and Dennis

Excellent group
I cannot thank Laxa Trails & Travels enough for an unforgettable 6-day safari in Kenya. Glenn, our guide, amazed us with his sharp eye for wildlife and deep knowledge of the parks. He knew exactly where to take us for the best sightings — we even saw all of the Big Five! His patience and storytelling made the drives as exciting as the wildlife itself.
Dennis, our trip organizer, ensured that everything ran seamlessly, from airport transfers to lodge check-ins. The vehicle was comfortable, the lodges were cozy, and every day was well planned. This trip was a perfect mix of adventure and comfort — I’d happily book with Laxa Trails & Travels again.

Well organized and professional
This was a great tour and if I did it again, I would add a couple of more days to relax and enjoy some of the areas.
With any tour, the guide/driver can make or break the entire trip. We were very fortunate to have had Chris, who absolutely made it a great success! He’s very professional, knowledgeable, friendly and always on time.
The only thing I would ask Pamba and other tour operators in Uganda is to get together and see if the authorities can invest some of the entrance fees on road maintenance. In particular, the Bwindi area roads are by far the worst we’ve experienced on over 35 tours and game drives in 12 African countries. It’s to be expected roads will be rough, but the ones in Bwindi far exceed the rest in the “African Massage” experience. For what the park’s entrance fee charges are, they could show a little consideration to their customers and grade the roads once in awhile.
Fantastic tour, otherwise!

Every moment of the tour was enjoyable—from scenic landscapes to historical landmarks, delicious local cuisine to warm interactions with local people—it all came together to create a truly unforgettable journey. Hutland Tours has definitely proven themselves as one of the top tour operators.
