We made the maximum 14 days safari and it was above all the expectations. The weather conditions were perfect, we saw all the animals in the list and the service was immaculate.
In addition to the safari the operator took care of all of our stay in Kenya starting from the airport at arrival till to the airport for departure. It was a great pleasure to be served and guided by people that did their work not only for money but with love and full dedication.
I would strongly recommend this company to anyone interested in Kenyan nature and people.

Our African Safari was more than expected as a result of exceptional service by ouor safari operator.
Our guide, Ken, was exceptional at finding animals that are sometimes elusive such as the Leopard and the Cheetah. We saw both Black and White Rhinos, many Lions, lots of Hippos, oodles of Elephant, Zebra and Giraffe, and saw a group of Cheetahs stock, takedown and eat a Wildebeest.
The lodges selected were outstanding. We would recommend Kenya safaris and would also recommend this operator.

The safari was operated as expected. The organisation was good and the guide - cook were professional and friendly people.
We have realized that in Kenya there are no intermediate level structures around the Parks, our campsite were basic but confortable as the budget hotels too, the mini-van was also pretty good. We can sincerely advise anybody, whith a minimum of adventure spirit, to make such experience.
A robbery occured in a budget hotel in Nananga, but was our fault to leave the bag in the room, anyway since the thief had the key perhaps that structure is to be avoid.

Our trip with was excellent.
Their staff was very helpful and very courteous. Our driver Elius was just the best as the roads were so treacherous. We lucked out with only the three of of us on the tour and got fabulous photos.
Beautiful country and beautiful people. We plan to return and would highly recommend this operator and we will use them when we return.
They did a fabulous job on arranging the trip.

We completed a basic camping safari in the week of 5th to 12th Feb. The services offered by the tour operator were good. While arranging for the trip there was a prompt response to our queries. We had asked for an itinerary of Samburu, Amboseli and Tsavo in the seven days that we were in Kenya, the itinerary was made available to us, all the promises were fulfilled, we had a great time. For special mention is their cook Alex, who dished out really good meals during the trip.
