Choosing Lion Rider Tours and Safaris was by far the best decision we made for our first ever girls' trip.
All four of us were picked on time from our homes, had a smooth travel to the mara and had the best experience of our lives. Muli is definitely the most professional, patient and knowledgeable guide anyone could ask for...Plus he knows all the hidden spots that granted us up close animal spotting sites...
Would highly recommend Lion Rider Tours and Safaris....
Muli is your guy am telling you!!

The journey to, the stay at and the Game Drive in Masai Mara Game Reserve together with my mom and siblings under our great, skilled and very experienced Tour Guide Mr Mule was excellent. This came with detailed explanation on not only the history of anything related to the game reserve but also everything that could be observed.
The team work amongst the tour guides, their knowledge of the terrain within the reserve in pursuit of the different animals delivered an adventurous trip for all of us.
Looking forward to more adventures with Lion Rider Tours and Safaris going into the future.

Johnson was our guide for five exciting days in Kenya. He was well organized and a very safe driver. Johnson told us a lot of story and politics of kenya which was super interesting. We would take him again.

We had an opportunity with my family to visit the Maasai Mara. The terrain was quite bad given the rains but Johnson's maneuvering was excellent. The game drive was an amazing experience, Johnson is very calculated with where to find the animals. He is a very skilled and professional Tour Guide/A tour driver. He is very knowledgeable in the field and across other diverse topics. Thank you for such an amazing experience! I recommend him 100% to anyone hoping to travel there.

Johnson took us around Tsavo East, Ambeseli and the Masai Mara. He was excellent at spotting animals, informative and fun.
We saw all sorts of niche animals (first python sighting in 3 years the hotel had heard of and a caracal) as well as 4 of the big 5.
Johnson was organised, friendly and knows his stuff.
I would highly recommend!

My wife and I just returned from a 10-day safari in Kenya with Lion Rider. We covered everywhere from Samburu to Maasai Mara and places in between such as Lake Nakuru and Aberdare. This was not our first trip to Africa, although we've been to Tanzania and Kenya only and thoroughly enjoyed both. On this trip we were guided entirely by Johnson Mule, by our request. Six years ago, after visiting many sites in Tanzania and Kenya, with multiple guides, we felt that Johnson was our favorite by far and that was the reason for our request. Johnson is remarkable. I swear this man, besides being very personable and knowledgeable, must have amazing vision. When Johnson stops the vehicle you can tell by looking at him that he has spotted something. That something is frequently beyond our vision, even when I'm looking through a long lens. But he takes us there and sure enough, it was worth the trip. So many times he told us before leaving our lodgings that he was looking for particular wildlife, and he never failed to find them.
During this particular journey we encountered just about every form of cat living in Kenya, including serval, lion prides, families of Cheetah and Leopard. Pretty much everything on four legs, including black and white rhinos, hippos, two types of zebra, cape buffalo, multiple varieties of giraffe, elephants, all the animals of the Great Migration, inclujding wildebeests, and also crocodiles, pythons. I'm sure I'm missing a lot here.
And the wilds of Kenya have myriad bird species, including many cuckoos, grey crowned cranes, a variety of eagles and just way too many species and varieties of birds to name. Any birder would be in heaven in Kenya.
We certainly have seen the big five, rhinoceros, elephant, cape buffalo, lion and leopard, multiple times. On this trip, thanks to Johnson and Lion Rider, we saw much more wildlife, and saw them closer than we did on our last time in Kenya. It was truly awe inspiring, and I took over 3,000 photos to prove it. As with our last trip, it was just my wife, myself and our guide. For the difference in cost it is to well worth it. In our case Johnson always knew the best approaches and stopping points for the best photography. And traveling with Johnson is also a real education. He'll remain silent if that is your desire, but when asked you will find he is a fount of knowledge, and he is willing to share it. That's one reason why we requested Johnson Mule as our guide.
Lion Rider's choices of lodging were very nice. Not elegant, who needs that, you're on safari, but very nice accommodations with great food, rooms, and friendly staffs. One that we visited six years ago even remembered us when we returned and treated us like old friends. Great places to return to after evening game drives, and to break fast before the morning drives and afternoon drives.

Had a great experience with Lion Riders. I took a day trip out to Hells Gate park and Lake Naivasha with David. He is friendly and knowledgeable, and we had great conversation while driving. Lion Riders offered me a fair price compared to some other companies who were ready to charge double for the day. I booked the day before and they were still happy to accommodate me. Overall great experience.

Our entire trip was amazing! We first went to Nairobi national park, then the elephant orphanage and finally the giraffe center. They provided a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend them.
