Horrible, they are thieves
We did a 5 days mount Kenya Hike.
First of all: I am rating the office right now and not the mount Kenya hike. The mount Kenya hike is definitely recommendable and was one of the best experiences we had. Great views, great guides (the guides are freelancers and not related to the office)...a wonderful experience!
But very important! Book this wonderful hike with another (maybe a little bit more expensive) tour operator! Our experience with this tour operator was the worst we have ever experienced (and we are travelling the world for 2 years now). They are robbing you and most of the things they tell you are lies! With this operator you get a reasonable offer and you find yourself paying 20% more than agreed to. Susan seems to be a friendly contact at the beginning and at the end you realize that she only told you half of the truth and lies (if you are not able to pay by US dollars in cash you will pay 10% more than the offer, because the company shifts the financial risk onto the customers, be careful about every "optional" they tell you...it will cost you more than expected...for example the ride back at the last day will cost you 50USD which is not included in the price) they also will make itinerary changes which will affect you with aditional costs without asking you. I really recommend to experience this wonderful hike with another maybe a little bit more expensive company. If you value honesty please avoid Susan and avoid this company, they are thieves.

Amazing Trip ! with Bison Safaris
Incredible trip, would recommend 100%.
The communication was easy ever since the reservation, with Maggie replying quickly and making arrangements for us.
Then the safari itself was awesome, Moses was the best guide ever!
He taught us a little bit of swahili and a lot about Kenya, Kenyan people and culture during the roads between the differents parks. We took the mini van option, very convenient.
During game drive, he taught us a lot about animals and he was the best to spot them and allowed us to take the best pictures, with respect for the animal (safe distance, not harassing them). He was also so nice and funny with a communicating good mood!
We saw many animals during the trip, including one magnificent lion in the sunset under the rain, magical!
The itinerary was very good, beginning with lake Nakuru and ending with the Masai Mara.
Many Many thanks to Maggie Githae ( Managing Director)

Excellent From Start to Finish
We were assisted by Susan who couldn’t have been more helpful. It made the booking process so much easier.
We did a two place Safari. The first at Karangwe Becks Lodge which was very small and personal m. Staff were incredibly helpful and kind. Our tracker and driver made our Safari experience memorable in finding the animals. Food and room was lovely and we have no hesitation in recommending.
Our second place was Kapama Orivate Game Reserve. This was a different experience, not as personal and felt more commercial. It depends what you are looking for. The room was beautiful with private pool. Food was also excellent.
If we did again we’d prefer the first lodge. However it’s a matter of personal choice and overall our holiday was wonderful and memorable.

Good combination of safari with a really good guide
I would have given 5 stars, but the coordination and organisation of the first two days was a bit confusing. Too much different people in different hotels. So I got late to my dinner at the first night. The tour itself was perfect. I have seen all big 5 and lots of cats. The parcs are amazing and the lodges great. I booked the luxury tour and it was. The guide tried to reach all of our needs. Thanks for that.

OUR AWESOME TRIP TO KENYA
We are happy to comment & share on our experience with Roaming Africa tours & safaris in December 2022 .
We had obtained several quotations from different tour operators in Kenya , which we rejected as too expensive. As a last minute effort one of my friends found Roaming Africa safaris website on the internet.
We were taken good care of by our Driver Guide Mr Stephen, who met us on the airport on arrival. Stephen was passionate and professional and took as to Masai mara where we enjoyed ourselves very well. The Game drives were fantastic in clean 4x4 land cruisers.
We also visited lake Nakuru National park where we got to see the tree climbing Lions & the great scenic view of a flamboyance of flamingos at lake Nakuru. In Masai mara we stayed at the fig-tree camp and in Nakuru we stayed at the Flamingo Hill Tented camp. All this camps were very clean and with good meals.
Everything was well prepared by Roaming Africa safaris.
Whilst we had heard many concerning stories about Africa at all times we felt safe and well taken care of, we are so happy that we chose Roaming Africa Tours and safaris.
We would recommend Roaming Africa to anyone who wants to travel in Kenya .
