          Could be better
          The Masai Mara has a good density of animals, and you'll see a lot. The landscape and the tour itself is great. We were promised bottled water and didn't get any until day 2. And the lodge wanted 2 dollars pr bottle (small). The tourguide couldn't/wouldn't help because we all came from different agencies. The tour operator didn't reply until it was already fixed. And even when we had water, we were restricted to how many bottles we could have. Like, come on. Water is the bare minimum of what is expected, and it is so easy/cheap to provide. The tour guide was an incredible driver, but it seemed like he wasn't very much of a people person, and he didn't tell us a lot about the animals or update us on what was going on. I felt like I was bothering him when I asked questions. Overall I had a good experience but it could've been so much better.

          Great experience with Samuel!
          We had a great 3 days 2 nights tour in Masai Mara with them! Our driver Samuel drove us safely and demonstrated to have a lot of effort for his job! Thanks to Samuel we were able to see the big 5, and also Lions hunting Pumba :) it was one of the best experiences I ever had in my life! Samuele was constantly in contact with other drivers in order to move fast in the park when someone spotted some wild activity :) Accommodation is nice, with hot water and cozy rooms. Restaurant was simply amazing, dinner and breakfast were awesome! Atmosphere in the camp is calm, with Masai people very (Real Masai) friendly. Camp is just 5minutes away from the park entrance, it makes everything very suggestive.

          unforgettable trip to Tsavo east
          Our trip to Kenya was fantastic. We were picked up at our hotel on time by our Guide Pascal. Damaris did the entire guidance and handling upfront quickly and carefully. The 4x4 car was very comfortable and we drove it around Tsavo East for 3 wonderful days. Pascal is an enthusiastic and experienced guide who was there for us all the time. He knows a lot about the animals and the environment. We were also allowed to use his binoculars and had all kinds of books on board to inform us. We were all pleasantly surprised that we also saw the leopard. The accommodation Voi was also completely fine. Great food and the view phenomenal. I can recommend everyone to book your safari here. Safe, punctual, clean, everything was fine. We traveled with our three children of 12-14-16 years old and they also had the time of their lives. Very worthwhile.

          Exceeded our expectations!
          Our safari experience with Chris - SafariDoctor exceeded our expectations! Chris found the big 9 and so many more! He is very knowledgeable about the animals and so the safari was an educational experience too. Chris is a great driver on the dirt roads as well as on the highways between the parks and went out of his way to take care of our needs. We started our safari early January which is after the rainy season so the grass was green which made for beautiful photos and memories!

          Unforgettable safari adventure with Chris
          We had an unforgettable safari adventure with Chris, the “Safari Doctor,” whose keen eye and insights made every moment memorable. He spotted a camouflaged male lion and guided us through an incredible scene where a pride used strategy and teamwork to hunt a buffalo. Chris explained how lions communicate through subtle signals, showcasing their remarkable coordination. His expertise and dedication made our trip both safe and extraordinary, and we’re truly grateful for his outstanding guidance.

          The best and most helpful staff
          We had a lovely stay at Keekorok The staff led by Judy made the stay quite exceptional. The rooms are clean and I loved the net above the bed. We had no problem with bite. The hippo pool is amazing to watch and only a short walk I love to eat the food of the country I visit and I really enjoyed the Kenyan food offerings but there were other options too. The breakfasts were great especially the omelette station which was my favourite. The serving staff could not do enough to help I would thank them for making my stay memorable

          Massai Mara Safari
          Massai mara tour was awesome, and our tour guide Sammy was the best! We saw every animal except cheetah and Rhino. The massai also took good care of us back at the camp with good meals and drinks. Unforgettable experience for my girl and I.

          Accommodating and professional
          Joel at Perfect Wilderness Safaris was very accommodating and helpful. We called last minute the afternoon before to arrange a game drive in Maasai Mara and Joel delivered. Our guide, Phillip, was knowledgeable, timely, and efficient. What we appreciated the most was their professionalism and very quick responses.

          Professional company with great communication and itineraries
          From the 1st interaction with Evaline from Perfect Wilderness over email everything was great she advised on the best option within our budget and time frame, adding on airport transfer and hotel accommodation in Nairobi. The 30/70 payment plan option was great. Evaline was available and communicative on our arrival checking on arrangements and keeping us updated. All the drivers/guides, vehicles and accommodations arranged as part of the package were professional and helpful. A special shout out to Nathan our driver and guide for Lake Nakuru and Amboseli who was very knowledgeable about the wildlife in Amboseli.

        I had a great hike with David. He picked me up on time, grabbed lunch on the way, went to Naro Moru Gate (not Sirimon Gate as listed), and then dropped me off at my hotel. At Naro Moru Gate, he explained the different vegetation. It rained the day before so it was a little muddy. David found a tree branch for me to use as a hiking stick. It worked!
        I'm only taking off 1 star because we went to Naro Moru Gate instead of Sirimon Gate. We also did not drop off the Equator Marker. Otherwise, great tour and I felt safe throughout the whole hike.
