Perfect trip - best driver - nice lodges - big 5 seen
5/5

We had a 10 day Safari with Papa Musili Safaris in October 2017. It went so well that I am curretly planning a new safari for 2018 again with Papa Musili Safaris.
Our driver was super. Nice and very experienced.
The lodges we have been booked in were clean and the local staff was always very friendly.
We have seen the big 5 during our trip, even rhino and leopard - so lucky us.

I only can recommend Papa Musili Safaris.

Stunning Safari with Papa Musili
5/5

My mother and I went on a 11-day safari with Papa Musili. It was an individual journey, no group. We were so lucky to have "Papa" as our driver and guide. He was a fantastic driver, a very funny person, always ready for a joke. His knowledge about his country is amazing. We´ ve got so many interesting informations about Kenia, its people, history, language, and of course...animals!!! He always tried to make us happy. As he knew we love cheetahs, he tried everything to make us see those animals. And we did! He was always very much in time, cared about my mother so she felt safe all the time. We learned "pole pole" (slowly) from him and try to take this to Germany with us. Through him, we got much closer to the country and its people. This journey exceeded all our expectations. Thank you so much, Asante sana!!!

Fantastic, professional service based on their experience.
5/5

Expectations met over and above on all three safaris. We have used Native Escapes before and we can't fault them. Choices of accommodation were offered making this a very personal trip.
Nothing was too much trouble and everything went like clockwork.
Botswana was wonderful and accommodation,staff and safari guides were welcoming and knowledgeable especially if you learn a few words of the local language.

Great experience with Mount Kenya Climbing Expeditions
5/5

My girlfriend and I completed a 5 day hike on Mount Kenya going up on Chogoria route and descent through Sirimon.

Each of the trekking day was different and had varied memories. Mount Kenya itself is grandeur and Chogoria route is definitely very scenic, more than we had anticipated. The mountain isn’t a conical crater like the neighboring Kilimanjaro, but it is a factual peak having various ridges and gorges to cross before getting to the summit base at Lenana Peak.

The key to a successful ascent of Mt Kenya is to take it laid-back during the first days and ensuring that you acclimatize to the altitude before attempting the final hike to the summit. Upon hitting Lenana Peak, it is quite a sense of great achievement standing on top the mountain. It is for sure a an amazing experience watching the sun rise over the African skies and with amazing views of Indian Ocean and Kilimanjaro peaks.

We used the service of Mount Kenya Climbing Expeditions directly and Daniel made all the arrangements for us. Everything was delivered as planned and at reasonable cost. Robin, the Mount Kenya guide was an excellent choice and an expert in helping out alongside the a team of porters and cook.

Without the help of Robin, we wouldn’t have succeeded in reaching the summit. Daniel was an excellent planner and made all efforts in providing all the information we needed beforehand. Everything was as per the details provided and trust me that they know the mountain very well, providing you with the right info and the potential problems and solutions.

For us, using Mount Kenya Climbing Expeditions was a great experience.

Very Professional and really personable, Wild Safari exceeded expectations at every level.
5/5

We really felt well taken care of from initial email to final fond farewell. There was no detail too small and no request too large, that weren't dealt with cheerfully and easily.
We had zero issues arise on tour, in large part due to careful planning and attention to detail from the staff.
I feel confident that had any issues arose from circumstances beyond their control, these would have been dealt with swifly and effectively.
Experience and knowledge shine through every interaction. We couldn't be happier with our choice and happily recommend Wild Safari to friends and family.

Awesome 3 day Masai Mara Safari followed by Spectacular Day at Wasini Island Snorkeling
5/5

From the initial email inquiry to the final drop off at the airport Netherken Safaris and Tours took care of our every need.

Communication prior to the trip was prompt and accurate. When we arrived in Nairobi our safari guide was at the hotel early to pick us up. Our baggage had missed the connection in Amsterdam and our guide took us back to the airport so we could be reunited with our bags before embarking on the 5 hour drive to Masai Mara. Once at the Masai Mara National Reserve the guide demonstrated his expertise and passion in not only finding the animals but also provided a running commentary on how the animals live and fit into the environment. The guide really made this trip special and was always willing to answer our questions but also knew when to leave us to ourselves to soak up the experience. One of the last animals the guide showed us was a leopard sitting high in a tree with what looked to be an antelope leg that he was saving for later.....an unbelievable sight and something that the guide went above and beyond to show us.

The accommodations at the Mara Sentrim Camp were perfect, the "tents" were clean and comfortable and the food was welcomed after spending a day in the van viewing the animals. The staff at the camp provided first class service.

The whole safari experience was an incredible value and although there are probably fancier lodges/hotels and we could have spent more and taken a plane into the reserve the trip we had was fantastic. Driving to the reserve was an adventure in itself and stopping to look over the Rift Valley prior to descending to the floor of the valley gave a great sense of perspective. Kenya is a fascinating country and during the drive the guide provided interesting information on the culture.

The snorkeling trip on Wasini Island was also very impressive. Our guide for the day picked us up from our Mombassa hotel and drove us 2.5 hrs to the boat landing for the trip. We snorkeled over the coral reef and was lucky enough to see dolphins and get to briefly get to swim with them. After returning to the island we had a fantastic seafood lunch. The guide then did everything possible to get us back to the airport in time for our 9:00pm flight. When we were stuck in Friday night traffic in Mombassa he knew all the strings to pull to get us to the airport in time. A truly memorable day.

Booking a trip online is always a little bit of a lottery but Netherken really came through for us and provide me and my family a vacation that we will remember forever. They provided everything they said they would and we were really looked after every step of the way. I highly recommend Netherken Safaris and Tours to anyone looking for a fantastic experience while traveling in Kenya.
