Our tour operator Malini gave a package to suit our family (UAE) with mixed age group 5-74 years
An amazing African experience with Mwema safaris. Our tour conductor Malini Samaga operating from UAE customized our eight day tour to suit our family with young children and senior citizens as well with good pricing.
There were no hassles with booking and communications.
The drivers went out of their way to make sure we got the best of sightings. Our driver Mr. Anthony, a very knowledgeable guide kept the children highly entertained yet well informed!
I highly recommend the hot air balloon.
The road leading to Masai Mara is dusty and tedious and under construction. That was the only difficult patch.
The journey back from Masai Mara to Nairobi is loaded with traffic and the timing has to be well planned to reach airport on time as traffic is very heavy and unpredictable.

Wonderful Ruaha NP safari with very interesting side activities
We had a great safari with Wild Gaze Safaris to Ruaha National Park. We spent 2 days (one night) on the safari and saw all big 4, and so much birdlife. Amazing park to visit for one day. Would not recommend to go much longer as tour drivers stay in the same area around the river as the chances of spotting wildlife are greater there. We also went to a local primary school and although we only planned to stop by for 10-20 min, we ended up spending over an hour because it was so interesting. A huge plus to this safari. Afterwards we went to a Maasai village and although I was very sceptical of its authenticity at first, it turned out to be a great trip as we talked a lot with the only English speaking person in the village (he also spoke Swahili and Maa, which was reassuring).
The driver was the one part of this safari that could have been improved. Both me and my partner are conservation biologists working in Tanzania (Serengeti region) and therefore know a bit about the system. The guide was untruthful or ignorant about many things about the park and the human communities living around it. He was friendly and enthusiastic at most times, but the drive back he was honking almost nonstop, which is even for Tanzanians an odd thing to do. Hence the 4 out of 5 stars.
Ernest (boss of Wild Gaze Safari) is friendly, helpful, honest and straightforward, which was much appreciated!
Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Great Value, Great Experience
We had a great safari through Kenamoti Tours. We looked at several vendors and we felt that they provided excellent value for money. They were flexible with customizing the safari and were very responsive to questions. We had one hotel change from the itinerary that we were not notified about beforehand and we were disappointed with. We stayed at the AA lodge in Masai Mara, which was technically an equivalent hotel, but we were unhappy with the services provided there particularly with the food and bathroom facilities. We stayed at the AA Lodge at Ambroseli, which was in the itinerary, and that one was much better. Our safari guide, Robinson Kariuki, was exceptional. He truly went above an beyond to show us the scenic places of Kenya along the way and taught us a lot about Kenya’s history and culture. His knowledge of the animals and plants was extensive and he knew all the parks well. He was always friendly and upbeat and was great at resolving any issues that came up. Two of our party had been on Safari before and said that he was the best guide they had had. Safari was an amazing experience and I would highly recommend it.

Our Genesis of Adventure Tour well organized, safe and fun.
From the time we arrived Jonathan made sure everything ran smoothly. We were in touch throughout the whole trip and he made sure he stuck to his word and provided everything that was promised. We went on a well organized tour. Our tour guide was funny and knowledgeable about the different areas and animals and did everything to make it enjoyable for us. I would definitely recommend Genesis.

Good coverage with very good campsite with good food
Nairobi traffic can be controlled only by making some over bridges.Approach road to Masai mara can be made with a little more effort from government.Jungle roads are ok.
