Kenya Safari Tour Reviews
- 7 Days, 6 Nights Safari To Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha And Amboseli Safari With Complimentary First Night Accommodation at After 40 Hotel Nairobi.
An excellent safari package for the money! There were a few minor changes to our itinerary that we weren't expecting, but we just went with it and it worked out great. Each park was a unique experience with many animals and beautiful scenery. We saw 4 of the big 5 in Masai Mara and picked up the rhino at Lake Nakuru. Our guides were knowledgeable and friendly. We had a full vehicle for Masai Mara, which was a little crowded, but a smaller group for Nakuru made for a much more enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend the optional balloon safari at Masai Mara. It was probably my favorite experience of the trip. The bike and boat tours were an good change of pace as well with a unique perspective of the animals. We ended up with a private tour of Amboseli which was amazing! The were so many elephants and we were lucky enough to get a clear view of Kilimanjaro the morning we left. We definitely made memories that will last a lifetime! I highly recommend :)
- Magic of Kenya Safari Tour - 7 Days
We had so much fun in the seven days safari. My sister and I joined a group and felt at ease with others. Max ensured we saw all the Big Five and met with the Masai Community were we dance to their traditional songs, learned about their culture and bought some Masai souvenirs. The transport and accommodation were well kept and clean throughout the safari. The African meals were delicious I really recommend this tour and great people.
- 6 Days Masai Mara - L. Nakuru - Amboseli Classic Budget Safari
It was the best six days of my life! In this 6-day safari at Bencia Africa, we have truly touched the heart of Africa. The sight of lions and cheetahs at Masai Mara, rows of pink flamingos at Lake Nakuru, and the backdrop of Kilimanjaro behind the elephants at Amboseli - everything is like a movie! Our guide, Philip, was very knowledgeable and friendly and always made sure we had the best experience. The service in this budget package was also excellent. Thank you Bencia, for giving us one of the best memories of our lives!
What our customers ask about Kenya Safari Tours
What are the best months to visit Kenya for wildlife viewing and safari experiences?
Kenya's prime wildlife viewing unfolds from July to October coinciding with the Great Migration in Masai Mara. During this period more than 1.5 million wildebeest make their dramatic crossing of the Mara River. The January to March dry season also offers excellent viewing opportunities in parks like Amboseli and Lake Nakuru where animals gather around water sources. A TourRadar traveler noted: "We experienced incredible wildlife sightings in Masai Mara during September watching thousands of wildebeest crossing while predators followed close behind."
What types of accommodation options are available on Kenya safaris?
Kenya's safari accommodations span from basic to luxurious with options that fit various travel styles and budgets. Masai Mara features high-end properties like Mara Sopa Lodge alongside authentic bush experiences at Lenchada Tourist Camp. Similar variety exists in Amboseli where travelers choose between established lodges like Sentrim and more rustic options at Kimana Camp. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The accommodations exceeded expectations - from the beautiful Mara Sopa Lodge overlooking the savanna to the intimate tented camps that brought us closer to nature."
How many days should I plan for a Kenya safari to see the major highlights?
Most travelers find that 6-8 days provides enough time to experience Kenya's key wildlife areas. A well-planned itinerary typically allocates 3 days for Masai Mara 2 days exploring Lake Nakuru or Lake Naivasha and 2-3 days in Amboseli National Park. One TourRadar traveler commented on the 8-day National Geographic Journeys safari: "The itinerary was perfectly paced giving us enough time in each location to really experience the wildlife and landscapes without feeling rushed."
How much do Kenya safari tours typically cost per day?
Daily rates for Kenya safaris range from $300 to $700 depending on comfort level and activities. Budget-conscious travelers can find camping safaris starting at $200-300 while luxury lodge experiences start from $500. These rates usually cover lodging meals game drives park entrance fees and guide services. A TourRadar review stated: "The 8-day National Geographic Kenya Safari at 675 USD per day was worth every penny for the quality of lodges expert guides and incredible wildlife experiences."
Are Kenya safaris suitable for families with children?
Kenya welcomes family safaris though most tours set minimum age requirements between 6-12 years. Family-friendly properties like Mara Sopa Lodge and Sentrim Amboseli offer suitable amenities including family rooms and swimming pools. According to a TourRadar family: "Our 8-day safari with Perfect Wilderness Tours was fantastic for our kids aged 10 and 12 - the guides were patient and made wildlife viewing fun and educational."
What is the typical daily schedule on a Kenya safari?
Safari days begin early with game drives starting at 5:30-6:00 AM followed by breakfast at camp. Midday brings time for relaxation before afternoon wildlife viewing from 3:30-6:00 PM ending with dinner. A TourRadar traveler described the rhythm: "Days started early with coffee and sunrise game drives in Masai Mara followed by hearty breakfasts at Mara Sopa Lodge. Afternoons were perfect for relaxing before evening drives when animals were most active."
