I joined a tour of Kenya’s top wildlife sites with Africa Venture Safaris, and each stop delivered something special. Maasai Mara had lions and open plains, Amboseli showed elephants with Kilimanjaro views, and Samburu added rare species. Game drives stayed active, and the guide shared clear insights. Transport ran on time, and the pricing felt fair. A strong choice if you want a full Kenya wildlife experience.Show more

The tour was actually 6 days and 5 nights but the itinerary on tour radar is incorrectly noted as 5 days which confused me and i booked our tickets to fly out on the early morning of day 6 believing we would be finishing our tour on day five Please amend the tour itinerary accordingly Also the first night stay in Nairobi is at Hotel Embassy which was a real shocker It was situated near a meat market and mosque The room and shower was pathetic The pipes in the shower had duct tape and looked downright dangerous. In all our travels we have never had to stay in a hotel so downgraded. The staff though were very helpful. The safari drives were all really good and we spotted the big 5. I would appreciate tour radar getting back to me about the misleading itineraryShow more
