Extremely professional and accomodating.
All thanks to our guide Kevin we had such a great experience. He has been so kind and helpful with all of us (a group of 7) and I just wish we could have stayed one day more.
He was able to show us everything there was to see in the park and make our stay crazy good.
I recommand the company 100% of course !
Obviously avoid the park during the migration time, we went at the beginning of March and that was perfect.

The selection of the lodges were excelent and the staffs acomodating. This is my second trip and looking forward for more tours with kenya bush .

Friendly, patient tour organziers with a gem of a Tour guide
We went to Kenia the first time and it was also our first safari. We booked flight and safari tour separately and nagged the tour operators with dozens of emails. They always responded quickly and we very helpful. Since the booking process is very lean and all done via email we were not sure if this was all legit, but in the end we took the risk and booked the safari with a small deposit… it seems this is how safaris are booked.
Even though the safari started a bit bumpy (our driver was about 1h late) all worked out well in the end. We were taken to the office to pay the remaining amount and as a next step brought to our tour guide Jimmy who was already waiting with some other safari guests for our group safari. We booked a 7 day safari starting from nairobi: masai mara, nakuru, amboseli, tsavo ending at our hotel on diani beach.
The accomodations were all as described in the emails and even though we booked the budget variants, the camps and lodges were all nice and much better then we expected.
Among the tour itself the highlight of the safari was definitely our tour guide Jimmy. He speaks flawlessly english, is always friendly and helpful and knows an answer for even the dumbest questions. He knows his ways around all the parks and knows a bunch of rangers, drivers and park employees which helps a lot when searching the rare animals in the parks. Within 3 days we have seen Leopards, Lions, cheetahs, Elefants, rhinos and also the common animals like zebras, impalas, etc. I suggest you take Jimmys recommendations concerning the right time for the game drive seriously. Even though getting up at 5:30 in the morning hurts sometimes, we always got compensated with beautiful sceneries ( flock of gepards right beneath the jeep, lions feasting a zebra, etc). If you are looking for a driver with several years experience, he is your man.
If you you are also planning a tour as we had, i would recommend to skip lake navaisha as the boat tour is pretty expensive… maybe the walking tour is nicer, but we did not do that due to lack of time. So far masai mara and amboseli are our favorite parks.

A safari to remember
We had an 11-day private safari with Spirit of Kenya in January 2023. We started with Amboseli, then went to Samburu, lake Naivasha, Aberdare, lake Nakuru, and, finally, to Maasai Mara before returning to Nairobi. The planning of the trip with André was easy with all the option clearly presented for us to choose from. Considering this was our first safari, the help with preparation and planning André gave us was invaluable. We ended up picking a mix of different types and levels of accommodations, which turned out to be a lot of fun.
Our guide, George, was very knowledgeable and professional, always on time, always attentive to our needs and interests, always eager to make sure we saw as much as possible. We were privileged to see many amazing scenes of animal behavior I never thought were even possible (and I am a biologist, by the way). In addition to the famous "big five", which turned out to be not so hard to find, we also saw many small animals as well as birds. George seemed to know all 500 of them! My daughter - she loves birds - was particularly happy.
We opted to drive between the camps rather than fly. Sometimes it involved long drives, 5-6 hours, but we did not mind. In some way, it was even an added bonus, for we got to see a good part of the country, the towns, the people, and how the countryside changed depending on where we were.
We loved every one of the camps we visited, for each one was unique. If I have to pick a favorite, I would pick Samburu because of all the endemic animals found nowhere else. And we all loved Elephant Bedroom Camp, with the river nearby, with all the animals coming to the river, and the elephants visiting the camp every morning. I would also like to note a game drive in Aberdare. George said that hardly any other company does that, and, indeed, we were the only car in otherwise complete wilderness. That was thrilling. To summarize, the trip was amazing and organized to perfection. I highly recommend Spirit of Kenya to anyone wishing to have a great safari experience.
