Playing stuck-in-the-mud
My family and I just returned from the Taste Of Kenya trip - a phenomenal experience that left us wanting more. We were fortunate to have Johnstone Kioko our designated driver and tour guide. Johnstone obviously has a vast understanding of the region, its wildlife migratory patterns and the reason why human communities and wildlife are able to peacefully coexist. As a result, we were blessed to track lion prides and rhino crashes in Lake Nakuru, elephant herds in Masai Mara and cheetah sightings near our Losokwan camp.
However, an unforgettable experience was playing stuck-in-the-mud with a male lion and its fresh kill. Whilst viewing this majestic male lion after feeding off its kill, our vehicle was rendered immobile, stuck in sticky mud and deep bush. Sunset in the Masai Mara was quickly approaching and we were obviously concerned about being in such a vulnerable position and in the dark of the night Mara sky. However, Johnstone reassured us and remained calm and jovial, confident that everything will work out. We were terribly concerned to see him jump off our vehicle, and attach a tow cable to another tourist vehicle. Although this resulted in our release from a very sticky situation, it did place Johnstone in a very precarious situation with a wild animal stationed only a few meters away. A very brave act from a true and genuine person.
The Taste Of Kenya trip not only provided us with an opportunity to admire Kenya's natural beauty and wildlife, but it also allowed us to nurture friendships with people in both Lake Nakuru and the Masai Mara. It was truly a privilege visiting Kenya, meeting her people and admiring the conservation efforts put in place to protect wildlife and their habitats.
If I were to suggest two points that should be considered, it will be the following:
1. All tour guides should be supported with 4x4 vehicles that are best suited for this terrain, and
2. An unspoken code of ethics should apply to all tour vehicles and tour guides regarding offering assistance to vehicles in need. The first on-site vehicle should be obligated to remain in close proximity to the compromised vehicle, until such time a rescue mission has been deemed successful.
Asanta SOK, Asante sana Johnstone Kioko

Great authentic experience
Had a great 4 day Masai Mara+lake Nakuru experience.
Great crew. Our driver and tour guide Andrew did a great job. Very nice chilled guy who made the journey smooth and we were happy to see many many animals in Masai Mara in little time.
Can recommend this trip!

Handled our travel logistics meticulously!
We, a group of 5 recently retired women and two kids put our trust in the hands of Mr. John, the Safari Director of BTPKS to show us sights of incredible of Kenya, and he did not disappoint us. From receiving us from the airport, arranging our stay in beautiful resorts, to making sure that we were served a few Indian dishes for dinner…he managed our entire travel logistics meticulously.
Our guides, Mr. Anthony and Mr. Dan were awesome. They drove us tirelessly through rugged mountain terrains and endless savannahs to see wild animals in their habitat and answered our questions about the regional flora and fauna. For me, it was a trip of a lifetime! I highly recommend BTPKS for your next safari adventure!

Perfectly organised safari
EA Exotic Safaris was ideal for organising our 7-day safari in Kenya. Raphael was responsive and helpful, we were able to modify the programme to suit us. Our guide, Gerald, was extremely knowledge, friendly and really made the safari for us!

Amazing 3-day camping safari at Serengeti & Ngorongoro
We just had an amazing trip experiencing the wildlife in Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Doing a camping tour is totally recommended especially when you have Izack and Deniz by your side. They will make the best out of your time with great spots to see animals, all information you need about nature and fresh cooked food.

Knowledge and experienced
HIGHLY Recommend Suricata Safaris, I had an amazing experience and could not fault them!
Everything was well organised and they were so easy to deal with.
Our tour guide Edgar was very experienced and knowledgeable and we got to see so many animals.
The accommodation, especially the Suricata Boma Lodge was beautiful and one of the best places I have ever stayed at! The staff there were so friendly as well.
Massive thank you to the incredible team at Suricata Safari :)

The best Safari Guide in Tansania
We were a small group and were very happy that everything was always explained to us in German. Whatever the issue or problem, it was resolved. The safari with the many animals we saw was the best I have ever experienced. We would do it again anytime.
