An Unforgettable Kenya Safari with Donwell Tours
We had such a wonderful time in Kenya, and a huge part of that was thanks to Christine and the team at Donwell Safari Tours. Christine was fantastic from the start. We planned the entire trip through WhatsApp, and she was always very active, responsive, and helpful throughout the process. She arranged all of our accommodations, guides, and drivers, and was flexible with every request we had.
Our time in the Masai Mara was definitely a highlight. Simon, our guide, was amazing. He was incredibly patient and knew so much about the animals, their behavior, and the local vegetation. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five and the Great Migration, and Simon made the experience even more special with everything he shared along the way.
Christine also organized our time around Nairobi and beyond, including trips to Lake Magadi, Lake Naivasha, and Kiambethu Tea Farm. The nature tour at Lake Naivasha was another great part of the trip and was very well organized. Daniel and Grayson, our drivers for those days, were both excellent. They were knowledgeable, patient, and made each outing enjoyable.
We also really appreciated the warm welcome from the Donwell team at the airport when we arrived. Everything felt well organized, personal, and thoughtfully planned. We are so happy we chose Donwell Safari Tours and would highly recommend Christine and her team to anyone planning a trip to Kenya.

great safari
The safari was amazing. Our guide Dennis was really warm‑hearted and helpful. We were very lucky to spot lots of animals, and even witnessed a cheetah hunting. The accommodation and food were also good. It was a fantastic experience, and I would definitely recommend it to others.

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Beacon Safaris
We spent eight days in Maasai Mara, and every single day was exciting and became an unforgettable memory for us. The safari exceeded our expectations, and we were able to experience the beauty and wildlife of Maasai Mara to the fullest.
Our guide, Carlos, was exceptional. He has a deep understanding of nature and wildlife, and he did much more than simply show us animals. He understood animal behavior and the surrounding environment, and he created opportunities for us to witness wildlife as part of a natural scene. Thanks to him, we were able to experience many unforgettable moments that we would never have discovered on our own.
The communication and service from Beacon Safaris were also excellent, and we felt well taken care of throughout the trip. We are extremely satisfied with the experience and would highly recommend Beacon Safaris to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.
Thank you to the entire Beacon Safaris team, and especially Carlos, for giving us such an incredible experience.

Excellent service
The service I received from Mufasa was excellent.Davis was extremely helpful.
My driver and guide was superb.
All things were well organised.
The only issue I had was that they should have provided a newer landcruiser.

Fast, easy communication. They planned the perfect itinerary for us.
We had an incredible experience with Lion King Adventures! My husband and I took a 10 day safari where we visited Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti, and Lake Natron. We saw a crazy amount of big cats, elephants, white rhinos, and a Mara river crossing. The itinerary was well-paced, the accommodations were wonderful (catering to dietary restrictions), and the wildlife was everywhere. Our guide, Ozzy, was a highlight of the experience. He has eagle-eyes for animals, a great sense of humor, and taught us so much about the wildlife and Swahili. We felt very well taken care of, and the whole trip went without a hitch. We had fast, clear communication throughout the planning process as well. I highly recommend you request Ozzy and safari with Lion King Adventures!

Very professional, great experience
Carolyn has been incredibly helpful throughout the whole time; and our guide Eric is very professional, can quickly help us locate animals. Pallid is a great tour company that not only helped us with our booking (we booked one week before the trip), but also quickly adjusted with our sudden change of plan. We had a great time and will definitely come back for more.

intimate
The overall safari trip is fantastic. Peter is a professional and friendly tour guide. He took us to see a number of fabulous wildlife like lions, cheetahs, elephants, rhinos and so much more. Besides, he knows the route in every national park and sightseeing spots. Also, he has a good view when safari as he can always find animals we could not find. Without him, we may see much less animals. He is also knowledgeable and prepared since he could recognize every animal we met and explained everything about it, such as its habituation, what it fed on and so on. It is so confident and safe to have him as our tour guide. The Land Cruiser vehicle he drives is also outstanding. It has a strong performance and can bring us to anywhere despite the various bad road conditions. Moreover, hotels we lived are all very comfortable and quaint.

Everything goes well.
The entire Kenya‑Tanzania safari circuit went very smoothly overall. The only setback was two issues with hotel bookings while in Kenya; there were no such hotel‑related problems during our time in Tanzania. Both our drivers‑guides were highly professional, making this a pleasant experience on the whole.
