It was a grate experience. We saw a lot of animals in our safari tour.
Good communication with the tour operator. OK with de guide/driver.
In 6 days we manage to see a lot of animals. The guide/driver seems to know very well the places where animals hide. We manage to see the big five (buffalo, elephants, lions, rinos, leopard - and even ghepard).

Mindblowing experience of exploring wildlife and nature in Kenya staying at the perfect locations
We went to Masai Mara and Nakuru for 3 days and 2 nights. Perfect and professional service from the tour operator including customizing the package to suit our schedule and finding the most ideal places to stay. Their expertise and in-depth game drive knowledge is very impressive. The 3 days of travel was nothing but full of great memories forever to cherish. Thank you for the amazing experience. Looking forward to return to Kenya to explore more places.

"I will definitely book again with lelaa tours next time"
Emails were quickly responded,communicating via WhatsApp as well,i quickly received a Safari offer adapted to my wishes. After i transferred the money, there were changes in the program, because my booking was short notice and some accommodations were no longer available. Fortunately, i got higher quality lodges for the same price.
After the pick up at the airport by Eric i did not have to worry about anything for 5 days until my departure.
My expectations were more than met.Francisco, was not only very helpful, reliable and charming, but also knowledgeable who could answer all questions in details, he was a very good scout and driver, so I was able to experience new highlights every day.I can't imagine a better companion and care.
Thank you Eric and lelaa team for the wonderful 5days safari in Tanzania! I will never forget the experience

Good Safari but could be better
Generally the safari was a good safari. Thanks to my friend who did the work to find the company. On the first day, we met our driver guide. He is very knowledgble and handsome. He told us everything about wildlife, people, culture and the country. Our hotels were very nice and comfortable. We saw all big five and special five also. Everything was good except our vehicle broke once in Masai Mara. It took us sometime to find help in the park, and we joined other clients vehicle to continue. The company manager met us at the end of the safari and really apologized for it to happen. We really appreciate their attitude. My friend rated them 5*reivew, but I would like to give them a 4* review or a 4.5 * review. The problem was that our vehcile broke once, we wasted sometime when we do safari, otherwise it would have been a 5* review.

Kyambura Gorge is amazing!
If you assess the park purely on the game drives, then it was very disappointing. There are only a few species that we saw: elephants, hippos, warthogs, buffalos, waterbucks and Ugandan kobs. However there are some activities which are excellent, making this a worthwhile destination:
1. Lion and leopard tracking with big cat research scientists. Thanks to the tracking collars we located 2 beautiful male lions, then 3 females and finally a female leopard. Going off road (since we had a ranger with us) made it even more fun!
2. Boat trip on Kazinga Channel is a wonderful way of seeing hippos, elephants and buffalos, plus water birds. Loved it.
3. Finally, the Kyambura Gorge. This place alone is worth the visit to this park. Rainforest in the middle of the savanna. The most beautiful forest I have ever been to. If you are lucky, you might find chimpanzees as well (I did not), but even without them the place is extraordinarily beautiful. You can see monkeys, birds, and the river is full of hippos.
Please keep in mind that there are about 40,000 people living in the park, and about 80,000 around the borders, so sometimes it does not feel like that you are in a national park.

good safari but could be better
We had a good trip but I remembered that daily driving distance was very loooong, also driving speed was not fast, and time spend on road was very long, espcially we experienced traffic on the way. First, we choose to have a 4wd landcruiser with a driver guide and had a good itinerary. Communication with Jong was great, all questions were answered straight forward. Payment was made easy in the Covid 19 season. Our vehicle was in good condition. The only thing is that everything was planned, but we spend daily is about 6 hours. There was one day we expereinced traffic in town also because of heavy raining, we got stuck in town and we had a almost 7 hours drive which affected our game drive in the afternoon, I remembered that clearly. The rough road condition in Masei Mara should be improved. The dust was a lot and we had to wear mask to cover our nose. We were told by Jong about the experience, but we did not expect that much, otherwise we could have book flights to masei mara.
Otherwise, everything else was okay. All meals were good (almost the same thing every time such as meat, soup, salad), our vehicle was clean all the time, our driver guide was nice and friendly to us, and most important that our accommodations were luxury and good. Every person surrounds us are friendly to us. We were happy to see a lot of animals. We saw big five and great rift valley. We loved to see the equator experiement also.
I would choose Sino Africa Safari again, but next time I will take flights for our transportation.
