Customer friendly experience
I recently had an incredible four-day safari experience that I will never forget. I traveled to the Maasai Mara National Reserve in Kenya, known for its stunning landscapes and abundant wildlife. Here's a brief account of my adventure:
Day 1: Arrival and Evening Game Drive
Upon arriving at the Mara airstrip, I was greeted by my knowledgeable guide who would accompany me throughout the safari. We wasted no time and embarked on an evening game drive. As the sun began to set, the wildlife became more active. We spotted herds of elephants, graceful giraffes, and zebras grazing peacefully in the golden savannah. The highlight of the day was witnessing a pride of lions lazing under a tree, their majestic presence leaving me in awe.
Day 2: Full Day Game Drive
We started the day early to make the most of our time exploring the vast wilderness. The Maasai Mara is renowned for its annual wildebeest migration, and I was lucky to witness this incredible spectacle. Thousands of wildebeests, accompanied by zebras and other herbivores, moved in a synchronized rhythm across the plains, creating an unforgettable sight. The predators, such as lions and cheetahs, stealthily followed the herds, making strategic attempts to catch their prey.
Day 3: Cultural Interaction and Nature Walk
To experience the rich Maasai culture, I visited a local Maasai village. The villagers warmly welcomed me, showcasing their traditional dances and rituals. I had the opportunity to interact with the Maasai people, learning about their lifestyle, traditions, and their deep connection with the land and wildlife. Later in the day, I went on a guided nature walk, accompanied by a Maasai guide who shared fascinating insights about the flora and fauna of the region.
Day 4: Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Safari and Departure
On my final day, I embarked on a thrilling sunrise hot air balloon safari. As we gently ascended into the sky, the vastness of the Maasai Mara unfolded beneath us, bathed in the soft morning light. From above, I had an incredible panoramic view of the sprawling plains, spotting herds of wildebeests, elephants, and other animals below. It was a magical experience, and we ended the safari with a champagne breakfast in the bush, celebrating the amazing adventure.
Although my four-day safari came to an end, the memories I made will stay with me forever. It was an immersive journey into the heart of the African wilderness, witnessing the beauty and rawness of nature and experiencing the rich culture of the Maasai people. I left with a renewed appreciation for the incredible diversity of life on our planet and a deep longing to return to the wild once again.

Knowledgeable and engaging.
Good organization, with Brenda you cant get bored! Good guidance on sites, history and expectations. The driver (I think Dan) knew his business well, and guided us to the wild animal sites with ease.
We had a 5 days safaris with : 2 days at Eco Camp (Maasai experience), 2 days at Amboseli and 1 day in Tsavo West. My group and I enjoyed it. PS....the parks are quite different to each other with each offering a different experience!
I would recommend Beyond the Plains Kenya Safaris anytime!!

Fantastic organisation Safari 360 and guide Rashid. Highly recommend!
We have had a fantastic time during our 7 day Safari with guide Rashid! He was very experienced and we had a lot of fun with him as well, he is well spoken and knowledgeable. We have stayed in beautiful accomodations and the food was also above expectation. Rashid took us to the right place at the right time multiple times, so we have seen a lot of animals! Dozens of lions, 2 leopards, cheetah's and the wildebeast migration, ofcourse we were also very lucky with all that nature presented us. We could not been more happy with this safari, the guide and the company in total. Communication with Petro was very clear and personal. This is a small company, and they are really eager to provide the best experience for you.
Don't hesitate, but just go with this company on safari for sure!

The best week of our lives
We had the most incredible week of our lives in Kenya with our amazing driver Joseph, who is truly the BEST guide in the whole of Kenya. He went over and above to ensure we were happy, comfortable and had everything we needed. Our entire trip was made as amazing as it was because of Joseph.
We went to Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru which was the perfect trip. Joseph had over 20 years of experience and expertly found us beautiful animals, including even some of the ones that were hardest to find!
My partner had been planning to surprise me by proposing to me on our 3rd day. He said Joseph helped him hide champagne and prepare the most stunning location to propose with a sunset viewpoint of the Masai Mara, which was so special. Joseph was very thoughtful and considerate throughout, and also organised for us to have breakfast in bed one morning as a romantic treat.
I felt quite anxious about the long car journeys as I have a very weak stomach, but Joseph made me feel safe and stopped for the washroom whenever I needed to, which really put me at ease and helped me to relax and enjoy my holiday. Joseph was great at telling us stories so that the hours in the car flew by, but also very considerate to let us drive in silence when we needed a nap!
The whole process went really smoothly and the company was responsive and supportive. If you’re looking to go on safari and trying to choose a company, I would highly highly recommend Explorer Kenya and I would recommend you specifically ask for Joseph, as you are guaranteed to have the time of your life.

The best way to visit Ngorongoro and Serengeti
We,as couple, booked with Serengeti African tours instead of our planned self-drive to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. This decision turned out to be very wise. We travelled in a group of 6 with a very experienced guide Simon. Simon is one of the best guides we have had during our many trips to southern Africa over the last 5 years. He is a very good driver on the narrow, bumpy, dusty, endless gravel roads that lead to Serengeti. He knows the parks very and is very efficient to get us trough the entries and exits, so that we did not loose time. His surprised us with his deep knowledge of wildlife and spotting skills that ensured we could see the big 5 in just a couple of days. And most of all, thanks to his empathy and positive attitude, he created a group feeling among the group solving ensuring all of the participants' personal aspiration could be met. A very good experience that i would recommend, and especially to anyone who would be hesitating between self-drive and an organized trip.

10/10 great experience
I was volunteering in the Newland Orphanage, where Steven grew up himself, and went on a one day safari trip to Tarangire Nationalpark with Kisaza tours. We all had a very good time and it was a very special day. All the organisation was perfect and also his pricing is very reasonable. Steven is a great guy who knows what he is doing and I can only recommend you doing your Safari or other Trips with him!
