We did not go on safari with Africa Veterans but had a very bad experience in requesting an offer from them. We asked a couple of operators for their quote for a one week long safari. Veterans, as all other operators, were very quick in replying to our request and also reacted fast on clarifications (which is why I rate... More

To be honest the entire safaris is great. Daniel did a great job and Martin reply the letter very soon. The problem is that we ask them to sent the postcard for us in the last day which is Sunday and the post office did not open so i can't get the stamps. They said no problems and we gave... More

Not only was I asked twice (before and after my safari) to review Africa Veterans positively, but I was then e-mailed to ask me again to review them. Tripadvisor, I believe, is a community for travellers to use as and when they see fit, not for tour operators to use as a marketing tool. I am happy if Africa Veterans... More

It was our first trip to Kenya. We were a little worried before the trip. Requests we sent so many agencies. Director - Martin Mugo - very promptly responded to our emails. All of his email was very informative and useful for our trip planning. All of it! We are very grateful to Africa Veterans Safaris for the excellent organization... More

While I had been to Nairobi on business several times, this was the first time I splurged and stayed an extra day to enjoy the nature. Martin was very professional and responsive to my e-mails which helped me set up a day trip to Nakuru quickly and efficiently in between my work obligations. James, my driver, was prompt in picking... More

I traveled along to Nairobi Kenya in January 2012. I found Martin and my driver to be very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating to my needs. I visited the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, where I saw the orphaned elephants, which was a real treat. We also visited the Giraffe Centre and the Maasai Market. Martin and his employee's are like walking... More
