Excellent experience and amazing team! - We can’t thank direct Kenya safaris enough for the incredible trip they put together for me and my husband. From the initial communication, planning and booking and the actual trip itself everything was great from start to finish. Kenneth helped plan everything for us even our last minute change of plans (from a few days in Uganda to a beach trip in Diani due to the Ebola outbreak). We were picked up at the airport by David who was really helpful and friendly. Then after our beach trip we were picked up by Paul our incredible safari guide. We can’t thank Paul enough for all the little touches and all the effort he made to make sure we got the best shots of the animals along with lots of information about the areas and animals. Paul really made the trip extra special. On our final day we had the pleasure of Jeremiah driving us to the giraffe centre and for a lovely lunch before heading to the airport. He was really friendly and it was lovely spending our last day with him. All in all there are so many safari companies to book with but this company put in so much effort to make sure we were happy I could not recommend them enough. Thank you to the whole team! We will have to come back and see you all again ❤️

Authentic Safari - I would 100% recommend this experience; the only thing I would change would be two of the hotels, as they could be others in better condition. However, I cherish everything experienced during the safaris. Special mention to our great guide Roberto, a true professional who loves his work and culture, and who made us feel part of Kenya from the very first moment; without a doubt, we were very lucky and saw everything we expected thanks to him.

KARIBU KENIA - The experience has been very good and we intend to repeat a safari of more days. We have gone with David, a very experienced driver, and with Lewis, a guide who is fluent in Spanish, English, Swahili and I do not know if any other language. We have learned details of Kenyan culture and have seen "almost touching", African fauna. We have always felt safe, which I cannot say about other tours with other companies.

Dream safari - My husband and I just did a 4 day tour of Kenya with direct Kenya safaris. Our contact person nduso was rapid with reply and suggestions,this helped us plan with a lot of ease. Our guide Reuben was kind, experienced and took good care of us. We were lucky to witness the wildebeest cross the river in Masai Mara and many more animals. Highly recommend.

Amazing service - From the starting to the end we had a seamless experience with this operator,communication was efficient paid 50% discount and balance was paid in Nairobi . Mr Anthony our guide was helpful and was sad our stay with him was so short .Ask for him on your safari. Generally they deliver their promises ,their prices are relatively cheap ,High recommended!

Kenya Safari - The Aberdare hotel "The Ark" is spectacular; you see the animals right next to you. The other 2 were average, old, and in poor condition. The guide who accompanied us was a 10!! Roberto helped us with everything and made the experience fantastic with his knowledge of the route and explaining things about his culture.

Immersive safari - The tour and the perfect guide; they should improve the hotel in Nakuru and the camp in Masai Mara. Special mention to our guide Roberto; our trip has been incredible thanks to his kindness and treatment towards us, with descriptions of Kenyan culture and his great knowledge of the area.
