Good experience
We booked a safari with "ETA adventure safaris", the general experience its been good, our gide gilbert was been the best to find all the animals. We only have had some little problem with the tickets for the train from Mombasa to Nairobi.

More than a safari — a once-in-a-lifetime experience in the heart of the Masai Mara
An unforgettable experience in the Masai Mara!
The agency picked us up directly in Nairobi with a fantastic Land Cruiser Jeep, and after about 5 hours of driving we entered straight into the Masai Mara National Park, immediately starting our first game drive. The first impact was absolutely incredible — pure emotion from the very first moments, with breathtaking landscapes and wildlife.
The following day we had a full-day safari planned. We were supposed to leave at 5:30 a.m., but due to a small issue with a tire we were delayed a bit — things like this can happen and are part of the adventure.
What followed, however, was beyond words: amazement, excitement, and pure joy. We managed to see almost all of the Big Five, missing only the rhinoceros.
The guides are exceptional: they know exactly where to go and how to track the animals. You can clearly feel their experience and passion throughout the safari.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to fully experience the magic of a safari. It’s a memory we will carry with us forever.

Good Value for money
The agency was very reactive and they were able to satisfy our needs and request. A very good value for money deal. The local guide, Rhino, was well prepared and committed.

Very professional
We spent 4 nights in the Simon mountains and felt like we were in the hands of a professional company. The food was excellent, plentiful and varied. Our guide was passionate about the mountain and was even a great photographer so we have lots of family photos from the trip. He also had a kean eye for spotting wildlife. Nice extra touches like warm soapy water in the morning and after a day of hiking. Tents were good quality and for camping, the mattresses were comfortable. Highly recommend SimienEcoTours
The Best first safari experience in Kenya with Monkey Adventures
We loved our experience with Monkey Adventures from start to finish.
The communication with Fauziah was great - she came back so quickly and profesional to all our emails and various requests helping to create the best personalised trip for us.
Payment was nice and easy - we were a bit nervous about the bank transfer, but it was quick and easy transaction that reached Monkey Adventures in a few minutes.
The safari itself was just perfect. Our guide Dave was so knowledgeable (16 years of experience) and told us all about not only animals but also Massai culture, his own tribe’s traditions and where he grew up etc. His knowledge of the parks was second to none - in Masai Mara, whenever he heard a simple mention on the radio of a lion, cheetah or even leopard - he took us there right away! We were always there before the queues for cars arrived. He’s also just a genuinely lovely person and already miss his company! We’ve seen all the big 5 but also many animal babies!
The places we stayed in were great - we went for the budget option and were so surprised that all accommodations were much higher standard than we expected with our absolute favourite being the Basecamp Adventure in Masai Mara where we could watch hippos, crocodiles, monkeys, various birds and even hyenas and an elephant from our tent!
Food was great - very abundant in each of accommodations and plenty of water was provided during game drives.
Definitely recommend adding the bike tour of Hell’s Gate national park if you’re around Lake Nakuru and arriving to the park very early - we were first there and had all park to ourselves and our lovely guide. Seen giraffes, zebras, buffalo and many other animals from the bike! What an amazing experience! It’s a lovely downhill ride - approx 8km and you will walk around the stunning canyon at the end for another approx 45 min. You then get collected by your driver at the end so don’t need to cycle back 😅
If it’s your first safari, we’d definitely recommend bringing large brim hat and plenty of sun screen - although you’re in the car a lot, you get sooo much sunshine you can easily get sunburned 😅
Overall - we absolutely recommend Monkey Adventures for your safari!
Thank you sooooo much!

Elisante was prompt, informative and a cautious driver.
Unforgettable experience with Wild Pride Safaris! Elisante and Lillian made it seamless and truly special. Our driver, "Eli" was always prompt, explained what to expect and spotted so many animals that we would have missed if not for him. He was the best driver anyone could ever find and made us comfortable the entire time. Thank you! Lillian was very responsive and so helpful with both pre and post trip information.

🌍 An Unforgettable Safari Experience – Perfectly Organized, Truly Exceptional 🌎
We have just returned from an exceptional safari and it is hard to put into words how complete and memorable this experience truly was.
Our guide was Dickson, and the safari was organized by Steve. From start to finish, everything was handled perfectly.
Dickson was an outstanding guide in every sense. He was incredibly patient, always punctual, and constantly attentive to our needs. He woke up early every day, stayed positive throughout, and never made a single negative remark. He encouraged us, helped us at every moment, and took great care to position himself and the vehicle so we could observe every detail of what was happening around us.
His experience made all the difference. Dickson knows the terrain exceptionally well and understands exactly where and when to go to witness the most beautiful and meaningful moments. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to see things we would never have experienced on our own.
The organization by Steve was equally impressive. The timing, logistics, and overall flow of the safari were perfectly managed. The hotels and lodges chosen were excellent, and the knowledge of the field and planning behind each step of the journey were truly remarkable.
A huge thank you to Dickson and Steve for such a high-level experience. We would recommend this safari to anyone without hesitation. It was exceptional in every way and truly unforgettable.

Reliable and very professional tour operator
Lilly from Great Explorations Namibia organised a 14-day itinerary for my family and I in December 2025-January 2026. We had a wonderful trip thanks to Lilly and thoroughly enjoyed exploring Namibia. The lodges she suggested were excellent, child-friendly, and comfortable. Would definitely recommend Onguma Bush Camp near Etosha, Kalahari Anib by Gondwana, and Villa Margherita in Swakopmund. Everything was seamless and we had no issues during the trip. Lilly also organised car rentals with Namibia2Go who offered fantastic services. Don't look any further if you want to go to Namibia, Lilly and her team will prepare a great trip for you !

Perfect safari
We used Kihindo for our private 4-day safari in Nyerere Selous National Park. Everything went great! From the first emails I contacted, I found the staff (Winnie and Pilly) very helpful in answering all my questions. Our driver and guide, William, stayed with us the entire safari, taking care of us throughout, in a very professional and kind manner. He was a fantastic driver on muddy roads, which were very difficult to drive on due to heavy rain. We saw many animals: crocodiles and hippos on the river tour and on the overland game drives we saw many giraffes, elephants, lionesses, zebras, and various types of antelope, wild dogs, and an incredible group of hyenas intent on devouring a hippo carcass. The guide's explanations about the animals and the enviroment were complete and interesting, starting from footprints to find them. The bush walk was also interesting for all the healing properties of the plants, explained by another "eccentric" local guide. The lodge was simple but surrounded by nature, with mongooses and squirrels running around the bungalows. It was very conveniently located near the park entrance, and the food was tasty and plentiful. I would recommend Kihindi and the guide William to anyone looking for the perfect safari!
