Fantastic, Knowledgeable and Deeply Caring hosts and tour guides!
DK tours picked us up at the border of Botswana and Zimbabwe and within 48 hours transformed our experience to one that would be unforgettable in a Life time. They did a wall to wall coverage of the most exciting activities without us having to ask anyone else around. They took care of all the picking and dropping off, stayed with us throughout the various activities etc. Their knowledge of all the local places, Victoria falls, one of the seven natural wonders of the world, the lion walk, the bungee jumping and zip line activities were found to be second to none. We also found them to be highly trustworthy. An example is they collected the money from us for all the activities we were interested in doing and they made the reservations. These were all at list prices as quoted by the activity vendors on their website. On the day of activities,when Webster (owner/manager of DK tours) found out that there was a special discount of 20% that the vendor were offering he refunded us that amount in US dollars at the end of the day. It gave us so much comfort that DK tours were deeply caring. They also facilitated finding the best restaurants to go to during those two days as some of us were vegetarians and some are fish.
All in all the best guides and tour company we have experienced in recent time. When you reach out to them ask for Webster. Enoch is the specific guide who accompanied us. Both were standout individuals.

Excellent!
I was impressed with the prompt communication with Peter to organize the logistics of the trip. He was able to answer any questions.
Our driver, John was amazing! He communicated beforehand and was time conscious the whole time. He was very knowledgeable about the animals and the surrounding area, because of John we were able to see so many animals and we truly enjoyed our time. The hotel (Zebra Plains Camp) was also very clean and the employees were helpful and friendly. The food was on point!
We would definitely recommend this company to our friends and family!

Nairobi National Park safari
The customer service was the best, Jonathan is the best tour guide around. Our trip to the national park was amazing, Jonathan knows the best places within the park and is quite friendly. The vehicle was spacious and social distancing measures were enforced. I would heavily recommend Explorer Kenya Safaris Ltd.

Always a pleasure
Skywide organised and coordinated one of my best trips yet. They were excellent with communication, payments and follow up. Further, their recommendation for accommodation was perfect as was the wonderful tour guide, Joseph Wangombe who they provided. Joseph made sure we enjoyed the full safari experience (leopard sighting included!) and went out of his way to accommodate our special requests. We couldn't have been happier.
This trip certainly exceeded expectation. Looking forward to working with them again.

Awesome, organisation was perfect!
We booked 3 days/2 nights and had a great time. We can only recommend the tour. We particularly liked the communication with the organizer. We were picked up from the airport and brought back again and stayed in a very good hotel for one night before and after the safari. We didn't expect that. We heard from other safari participants who booked through another agency that they had very bad hotels or had to pay $ 50 to upgrade.
The safari itself was very nice. The catering was impressive. There were always full warm meals that were very good. We felt very comfortable because everything was really taken care of.
We saw a lot of exotic animals and got great photos and videos.
We can recommend the tour and especially this provider to everyone.

This experience was wonderful
Bobby tours was very accommodating throughout the trip. The drivers/guides are very helpful and passionate about their job. Also, they are able to spot animals from a great distance. My safari trip definitely exceeded my expectations.

Absolutely fantastic
This is the second time we have used Explorer Kenya and on both trips we have not been disappointed. Rather than taking one of their package tours we opted to arrange our own accommodation and itinerary, and simply asked for the services of a guide/driver and an all terrain vehicle for a week.
Robert, who runs/?owns the business is highly reliable, flexible and a good communicator so it was extremely easy to arrange our trips by email and have them confirmed prior to entering the country.
Both trips included three or four nights in the Maasai Mara staying at Julia’s River Camp, which is a great mid-budget camp, on the banks of the Talek River within the park itself. There is nothing too much trouble for the staff there to ensure your comfort, and I would thoroughly recommend a visit there.
Our driver on safari has always been Dan Kim. Not only is he an excellent driver; calm, unflappable and very conscious of his clients comfort over some of worlds biggest potholes and the most challenging traffic jams around Nairobi, but he is also a fantastic guide / bodyguard / translator and ultimately friend. My daughters were so impressed with his encyclopaedic knowledge of Kenya’s flora, fauna, people’s and their cultures that they desperately tried to find questions he was unable to answer - they failed! Dan has a very pleasant and unassuming personality and was always prompt, courteous, smiling and a great travelling companion. If you need a guide I would unreservedly recommend him.
With thanks to Dan we saw all the animals and birds we could have dreamed of, and learnt so much more about their habits, lives (and deaths!)
Kenya is a land of contrasts - geographically, climatically, culturally and economically. It’s was therefore more than just interesting to travel to a steamy Kisumu on Lake Victoria, up-to the fresh cool Highlands of the Mau and down to the lakes of the Rift Valley. It was really an unforgettable trip.
A quick word about COVID:
1. Need a negative PCR COVID test 96 hrs prior to entry. 2 Fill in Travellers Health Surveillance online form and obtain QR code
VERY impressive precautionary measures everywhere in Kenya - temperature, mask and hand washing before entering any building.

Best tour I have experienced
The service was more than perfect. Mr. Msafiri and Francis made our trip so memorable that I strongly recommend to anyone who wants to have an amazing safari trip
It was a last minute plan and he managed to arrange our trip in less than a day with no hassle and very convenient for us
I will definitely do it again and only with eyes on serengeti because they are the best and they give the best service
