3-Day Maasai Mara Budget Group Safari – 4x4 Land Cruiser

Fantastic 5 days safari in Kenya

This tour was a fantastic experience, and with a very good quality/price ratio. We were also a bit skeptical about the timing (mid March, so near rain season), but we were very lucky. We were able to see countless animals, we've enjoyed the full experience, our driver was amazing and the agency (Alphadean) was very collaborative. I'd recommend this tour

Action packed tour for a great price!

We are 4 students on a very tight budget and we had a great time with alpha dean! We were quoted a great price for our tour by Jemimah, who was super helpful at organising everything and gave us loads of options to find what fitted best with our plans. We settled on a five day tour with two days in the Masai Mara, plus a trip to lake Nakuru and lake naivasha on the way back, driving from Nairobi. They were very helpful in us getting cash out to pay for the tour and other extras along the way. The shared tour ended up being just the 4 of us as it was off season. They offered us an upgrade of vehicle at the last minute for $200 which we didn’t accept, but may offer a more comfortable experience as it was quite a loud & bumpy ride in the mini van. This wasn’t an issue for 4 young guys expecting a budget trip, but if it was full/for those who prefer a slightly calmer experience we’d recommend upgrading! We arrived in the Masai Mara campsite on the first evening after a long drive. The camp had WiFi and great food included for our price bracket, with a nice bar to buy ourselves drinks. We then left early the next morning for a whole day game drive. It was brilliant, our guides Anthony and Dan were experts at navigating the muddy conditions and found us everything from lions to elephants and even a leopard. We also enjoyed a walk along the Mara river with a ranger, making each day feel completely unique. We had an amazing experience both days on the reserve and the rain hardly affected our trip at all. The second evening our car broke down, but the guys dealt with it really well, and we were picked up by another tour guide who looked after us. The guides at alpha dean are friendly with everyone on the Mara and it really shows! The third day was another driving day, with a long trip to Nakuru where we stayed in a lovely hotel. The last day involved a long morning game drive in Nakuru where we saw rhinos and an array of great bird life that we couldn’t see on the Masai Mara. We then finished the tour by driving to lake naivasha where we were able to enjoy a boat ride ($20 pp) and a nature walk (another $20pp). These were brilliant so we’d highly recommend, just be aware that they cost extra. There’s also a strong culture of tipping so make sure to factor that cost in! Overall we had an incredible experience with alpha dean and we’d definitely recommend doing a safari with Jemimah, Anthony, and team in future!

Essential

I had a great 3‑day safari in the Maasai Mara. The experience was well organized and the tented accommodation was much better than expected—comfortable, clean, and with all the essentials. Considering the overall quality of the service, the price-to-experience ratio is very fair. A memorable trip and a good value for money, but paying cash you will save some 5 % extra fee that they will charge you paying with card.

Fantastic Experience and Great Hospitality

It was fantastic experience with Alpha Dean Tours . Jemima is a great host arranged transport from and to airport and provided a great hospitality. Our Tour Guide was more experienced about masai mara and animals was a added plus. Overall I would recommend this solo and all group of travellers. It was totally worth it.
