5 star operator without the price tag
I booked a 5 day trip to Masai Mara, Nukuru and Lake Naivasha with Lenchada and had an incredible trip from start to finish. Very good value for money, especially compared with other operators.
Alex in the office was super helpful, answered all our queries and responded quickly.
Our tour guide Moses was amazing. Very friendly and always cheery, which made a huge difference to the tour. He’s also extremely knowledgable and passionate about the different parks and animals, and has unbelievable eyesight - spotting animals miles in the distance before anyone else could see them. He knew the different parks like the back of his hand and went out of his way to ensure everyone was happy. He also made sure we saw all the big 5 and got close enough (responsibly) to the animals so that we could get great shots. You could clearly see the difference between Moses and operators at other companies. He was brilliant and I can’t recommend him or Lenchada enough. The advantage of using Lenchada is that they are experienced and have lots of drivers who are constantly communicating with one another in the parks via radios to tell one another if and where they’ve spotted animals, so you have a higher chance of seeing all the animals.
A bit about my tour: I went for a ‘budget’ package which included camping in tents at Lenchada’s own camp at the Masai, but the tents were really spacious with beds and a private bathroom inside. Staff at the camp were extremely helpful and friendly and no task was too much for them. In Nakuru and Naivasha we stayed in hotel rooms which were basic but sufficient and good value for money. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all included as well as water and all park fees. Totally transparent pricing with no hidden fees.
I’d highly recommend going to Nakuru and Naivasha as well as Masai Mara. Nakuru is a beautiful park with impressive landscapes and Rhinos. In Naivasha you can drive, walk or cycle through hells gate, which is a very beautiful park with picturesque cliffs and home to giraffes and zebras (amongst other animals) who roam freely around the park. You also have the option of walking amongst giraffes, gazelles, zebras and wildebeest close by to the Lake Naivasha Resort for a small additional charge, which I’d really recommend as you get to see the animals up very close.
All around an amazing experience with Lenchada. You won’t be disappointed if you book!

*Mesmerizing experience at Lake Mburo National Park*
Umarella Voyage Safaris planned my trip to Lake Mburo National Park to perfection. At first, I thought the trip will be a disaster since I placed out a lot of demands during my booking process just to test their patience. I was shocked when they delivered what I wanted and even offered more than what I expected. From their driver to their tour guides they are all very patient and cannot easily be annoyed. Well done! Umarella Voyage Safaris.

Quickly responsive at almost all hours to deliver requested information
African Sermon Safaris offered a great rate for five days of Safari to see the Maasai Mara Reserve, Nakuru NP, and Naivaisha with all included and excluded services explicitly stated. I appreciate their openness and honesty and mostly their reliability as far as communicating with tour drivers and guides to clarify anything from my side. It was a tour and visit in Kenya that I will never forget for a price that I was able to afford.

From Mombasa to Masai Mara
We experienced one of the most organised trips to Kenya and it was all down to Johnathan and his wonderful team. We planned to visit from Mombasa all the way to Masai Mara which could have proven to quite a challenge but Johnathan planned it meticulously. The itinerary was bespoke and absolutely suited to what we had in mind and Johnathan consulted us several times along the way. He provided several options including budget accommodation as well as luxury with a range of accommodation. The drivers were well informed throughout the experience and prioritised our comfort throughout the whole trip. The meals allowed us to experience Kenyan culture and Johnathan even planned picnic lunches to make sure we got the most out of our safari. We feel incredibly lucky to have seen the big 5 as we know that not all get to do that! We could not have asked for a better trip and are desperate to be back soon so we can explore more of Kenya!

This was such a great safari! We couldn’t have asked for a better company to book with. Everything was well organized and flexible. Our guides Jacob and Opany were amazing! Our Camp in Masai Mara was 5/5.

Authentic and flawless
Fika Safaris had given us an amazingly flawless Kenya experience. It was perfect end-to-end arrangement and we didn't need to bother about anything at all. It was a vacation where you didn't need to worry about anything, and everything is taken care of.

Fantastically helpful and responsive operator
A group of friends travelling around Namibia as a self-drive. We had a superb service from Blue Crane, with new vehicles, fully equipped with everything we needed including mobile internet, SatNav and a fridge. Derek and his team responded very promptly to every change and whim we came up with during our trip. He was very knowledgeable about all of the lodges we stayed in and was integral to determining our itinerary.
They were great value for money and looking back at the complicated logistics , we would have had difficulty coping with out their expert help.
We were so impressed with all the help we got we are already planning a new trip using Blue Crane Safaris again.
If you are planning to come to Namibia, you need Blue Crane Safaris!
