Wonderful safari experience!
This safari has been nothing short of epic. When looking for a safari, Cate was very thorough - understood what we were looking for, asked good questions, understood our budget, and made us comfortable throughout the entire process.
Once in Kenya, all of the details were well thought through - every ride, every meal, and we were able to truly maximize the limited time and budget that we had. We were able to experience so much, and our guide Simon answered every question we had, guided us safely through the different terrain and Kenyan traffic, and made sure everything was done to ensure that we experienced as many different animals as possible from several wonderful vantage points. We felt cared for though the whole process and appreciate Imara Africa for everything they did to make this safari a memorable, once in a lifetime experience!

Wonderful experience
Fantastic experience. Our guide Simon was knowledgeable and helpful and so fun. Made the experience great for our family. We spotted so many animals and the accommodations were wonderful. Beautiful settings and tent rooms and dining buffets. We had a memorable trip. Our teens were excited to see new animals daily and learn more about the Masai culture and Kenya. Food was tasty, beds were comfortable, and our guide made it amazing. Thank you to the Imara team who helped us organized our trip and stay. They responded quickly to our requests and questions and planned our days well. Wish we had had more time. We are sad to leave Kenya and will be back! Thank you Imara team!
5 star service
I engaged this company directly on their social media so as to book a safari for me and my siblings. Their response was fast and i received a very detailed itinerary that really captured alot of information requiring minimal explanation. I booked the 3 Day Trip to Amboseli and we really liked how detailed the tour Guide ‘Mr. Martin’ gave us a brief before hand and during the safari. We loved Amboseli and the wildlife there and one of the reasons we really did so was because of how Esther planned our travel plan and how Mr. Martin executed it. The trip was value for our money for we stayed at a really great mid range camp that they chose for us, and the food was amazing. I would highly recommend this company for short and even long safaris, they are organized.

Great and considerate tour guide among the tour
Driver Felix and tour guide Simon offers a good and considerate tour within a reasonable pricing. Without any interfere within the tour option, we would take the whole journey within our own idea, which is great.

Professional and reliable team!
We greatly enjoyed our private tour with Morning Star. Communication with our consultant, Alice, was smooth, responsive, and professional from the very beginning. Our trip with our guide, Timothy, exceeded all our expectations. He was exceptional at spotting animals and had great understanding of their behaviour, often anticipating where they would go next. The trip was truly magical and we thank you for the amazing experience we had!

An unforgettable safari made even more special by the people behind it.
Our 5-day safari with Antonio Safaris was truly one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had. Looking back, we honestly can’t think of anything we would change.
Before the trip, Edna was wonderful to work with. We made a few changes to our itinerary during the planning process, and she was always patient, quick to reply, and happy to help. She answered all of our questions, making everything feel easy and stress-free before we even arrived in Kenya.
Once the safari began, Evans made the trip unforgettable. He is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about wildlife. You can immediately tell that guiding isn’t just his job—it’s something he genuinely loves. He was always explaining animal behavior, answering our endless questions, and making sure we had the best possible experience.
One of our favorite memories was watching a lion stand up right in front of us. Evans told us he has his own way of reading lion behavior and suggested we wait a little longer instead of moving on. His patience paid off, and a few minutes later the lion stood up and began walking. It was an unforgettable moment that we’ll never forget.
Evans is also an excellent wildlife photographer. He carries a professional camera with a powerful telephoto lens. Since we didn’t bring a long lens ourselves, he kindly shared many of the incredible photos he had taken during our safari. Having those beautiful close-up shots of the animals means so much to us, and it was such a thoughtful thing to do.
He also never rushed from one place to another. Whenever we came across a breathtaking view—especially during sunset—he would often stop the vehicle and encourage us to get out, take photos, and simply enjoy the scenery. Those quiet moments were just as memorable as seeing the wildlife.
Every destination had something special. Seeing Mount Kilimanjaro rising behind the elephants in Amboseli was absolutely breathtaking and one of those views that photos can hardly do justice. At Lake Naivasha Resort, we even had the chance to watch hippos being fed from the lodge, which was such a unique and unexpected experience.
Another highlight was the accommodation arranged by Antonio Safaris. Every lodge and camp was different, but they all shared one thing in common—they were beautifully integrated into nature. Waking up to birdsong, enjoying breakfast surrounded by stunning landscapes, and spending peaceful evenings listening to the sounds of the African bush made the safari feel immersive even when we weren’t out on game drives. Every place was comfortable, welcoming, and carefully chosen.
The entire trip was smooth, well organized, and thoughtfully planned. Thanks to Evans, we were lucky enough to see the Big Five along with so many other incredible animals, but what we’ll remember most is how personal the experience felt. We never felt like just another group of tourists.
A huge thank you to Edna for all her help before the trip and to Evans for making every day so special. If you’re planning a safari in Kenya, we wholeheartedly recommend Antonio Safaris. We wouldn’t hesitate to travel with them again.
