Very nice Safari-Trip with nice driver and a lot of African charme
It was an undorgettable and unique experience to go on safari! I especially liked the fact doing it with a Lokal agency and a very local driver. A highlight was the private cook who accompanied us some days During the Safari. Cook and Driver were very professional and a very humourous Company! All in all I would book with Kikwetu Cultural Adventures again!!

Great Safari with Africa Remote Safaris
WoW !!! Great trip! A big thank you to Steve for organizing our itinerary. We had a great time with our guide / driver and Dominic our cook.
Our journey began on July 18 with the home of Steve at the airport and meet Kenneth Gawo the next day. Here we left for the safari. The Masai Mara is obviously unbeatable to see the multitude of animals. In four game drives with a full day in the park, we saw four of the Big Five with Ken. We made a short stop at Lake Nakuru to find the rhino, the last of the Big Five. Have coffee on the porch of WCK guesthouse is very relaxing and magical. However, we have a little less relaxed at Roberts Camp Lake Baringo since hippos roamed the site overnight. Beautiful experience! from Baringo, we went to a few hours at Lake Bogoria to see the flamingos and geysers. We loved this landscape and diversity. Before heading to Amboseli, Naivasha we stopped for a walk to Crescent Island. This place is worth the trip as we look at the zebras, wildebeest, gazelle and bucks of a different perspective. Dominic(our cook) unfortunately left us before because at Amboseli Kibo logde we had a buffet. We would have preferred to keep our cook! The most incredible view from this lodge with Kilimanjaro. I miss having breakfast at there. The droughts of the past years are felt on the park since there are not many animals. In nine days of safari, we traveled over 1600km without counting the game drives. The road is very difficult to several places and tiring.
We tip our hats to Ken for his work and for its friendliness. We had great conversations together. Dominic was able to fill our tummies with each meal with very good creamed vegetables, stew, pasta, local dishes and tasty fruits. I would take good note of the stew recipe vegetables!
We took four days later to go relax and sunbathe in Mombasa. Everything went very well during our trip and we again thank the whole team.

Caring, personal service
I did a 3 day tour out to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest (from Kampala) to see the gorillas. Fred was great in terms of answering my questions in a timely manner and making sure everything was as I wanted. He even made a special trip to the airport on his birthday to meet me for final payment two weeks before my trip! He is an honest, trustworthy guy. My only big complaint is that it is currently not easy to pay for these safaris by credit card other than Visa, but I know this is being worked on. If he could accept credit cards over the Internet, that would be the only change I'd make. Otherwise, the prices and experience were great!

Very nice experience !
We decided to visit Chobe mostly because it was very close to Victoria Falls, which was our intended destination. Given the fact that accommodation in Victoria Falls is quite pricey, and there was not much of interest for us to do in terms of activities to occupy us for more than a day, we decided to stay near Chobe, and do a one day VF trip during our stay.
We did not expect much from Chobe, since the only thing we knew about it beforehand was that it was famous for elephants.
Our stay was fantastic, we enjoyed very much the boat cruises, from which you can really enjoy all of the wildlife on Sedudu island.
I am not a big fan of birding, but we did see lots of interesting birds, and some people apparently seemed very into the matter and enjoyed it very much !
We also did a morning game drive, which was good, but not excellent. There were too many vehicles compared to some private game reserves, and since we could not get off-road, the animals we saw where quite far away. Still, it was a good experience, and the park still has lots of animals, and for a much more affordable price than what you pay in a private game reserve.
Overall, our experience was very nice, people were very friendly, the scenery was fantastic, and we did see lots of animals !

Amazing Masaimara
I went to Kenya for GES 2015 and I had no plans of going to Masaimara but I heard so much about the place that I abruptly decided to go. I was looking for a Safari operator and met Diana. It was Sunday but still she helped me book my tour. I was extremely happy to receive their cooperation and hospitality. They worked hard to help me make the most use of my time and I am thankful to them.
