Beyond my expections, beautiful, safe, exciting and fullfilling.
I would highly recommend using Transtrek for your safari. Daniel put together for us a bespoke first-time safari we wanted and the brilliant value for money became more apparent as the trip went on. The variety of areas we stayed and animals we saw was just incredible, Ol Pejeta, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and then the Masai Mara. Our driver Tony was wonderful company, had fantastic knowledge about where to find the animals and knew the name of every animal, bird and reptiles we saw. We had several experiences of seeing animals by ourselves which was magical, a herd of elephants, cheetah, crocs and hyenas to name but a few.
We felt very safe and enjoyed standing up in the jeep for most of the time, the best way to spot the animals. Got stunning photos, just with my iPhone because of Tonys skills getting us into great positions for the shots.
At Ol Pejeta we had a magical start to the trip where we meet the last two remaining northern white rhinos in the world and a blind black rhino called Baraka whom we were able to feed. We also visited the Jane Goodall chimp sanctuary all of which was incredibly moving. I would recommend going here and supporting the work they do at the Conservancy.
We also went on a boat to crescent island where you can walk freely amongst the animals with a guide as there are no predators on the island. Some of 'Out of Africa' were filmed there.
I have never seen so many birds as I did at the two lakes it was paradise. Over the trip we saw the big five as well as cheetahs, giraffes, zebra, eagles’ crocs, hippos, hyenas, so many antelopes and monkeys to name a few.
My friend and I feel in love with Kenya, it was a trip of a lifetime, don't hesitate, book it, you can thank me later.

5 star experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Our family of five adults recently returned from an unforgettable eight-day safari with Lion King Adventures. The entire experience was seamless from start to finish. Every interaction—from the highly responsive office team to Simon, who handled our airport transfers—was professional, friendly, and incredibly attentive. We felt completely cared for at every stage.
The true standout was our guide, Leonard. I hadn’t realized how much a guide defines the safari experience until we met him. His deep knowledge of wildlife, paired with his patience and infectious enthusiasm, made each day memorable. Thanks to Leonard’s sharp eye and persistence, we even managed to spot the entire Big Five in a single day to cap off our trip. We recommend Lion King Adventures, and specifically Leonard, without hesitation.

The tour was amazing and very well organized
We booked a tour to Mikumi with Big Mama Safari Adventures. The tour operator responded immediately, despite the fact it was beyond the working hours, which is highly appreciated. The tour itself was very well organized. We enjoyed the tour and highly recommend to choose Big Mama Safari Adventures.

Professional
I had a great time with Manka Safaris.
Everything was thoughtfully and well planned. They were good at communicating before, during and after the visit so there were no questions of doubt. The Safari speaks for itself, absolutely amazing (we were blown away by the amount of wildlife that we were able to interact with). Camping set-up was absolutely great, tents in the middle of the national parks with wildlife all around us. AND, we had the best tour guides in our car for our 4 day long safari, so kind and ackommodating!

Excellent safari company with wonderful service!
I cannot recommend this safari operator highly enough. From start to finish, their communication was clear, timely and very helpful—they answered all my questions patiently and made the whole planning process easy and stress-free. The service was excellent and truly thoughtful; the team was polite, reliable and always ready to assist, offering great value for money with a well‑organized and smooth tour.
Our guide Michael was absolutely outstanding. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable and incredibly kind. He worked so hard to find wildlife for us, staying energetic and focused throughout the safari, and we saw so many amazing animals thanks to his sharp eyes and great experience. He was always thoughtful and helpful, carrying our luggage, taking care of small details and solving any issues calmly and efficiently.
During our trip, we unexpectedly encountered flooding on the road. Instead of panicking, Michael stayed completely calm, thought carefully and quickly found an alternative route, ensuring our safety and keeping the journey on track without any trouble. His experience, calmness and professionalism made us feel secure and well cared for the entire time.
This was one of the best travel experiences I have ever had. Every part of the tour was well‑arranged, the service was warm and reliable, and Michael made the safari unforgettable. I truly appreciate their excellent work and will absolutely recommend them to anyone planning an African safari.
