5.0/5Great Safari with nice guides and splendid photo opportunities!
Our guides Brian and Sebastian were wonderful. They were driving us through Tsavo East and West as well as Taita Hills on a safari that we were able to customize to fit best, what we wanted to achieve. We were able to see tons of wildlife and they always went out of their way to get us to the perfect spot. Either positioning the car meter by meter to get us the best view or listening to the radio and exchanging calls with others to find opportunities such as a lioness sitting in a tree with her cub. Overall we had a great time and after this trip I'm confident this won't be our last safari.

Brian and Sebastian went out of their way to make sure we had a great trip.
We went on a 3 day safari to Tsavo East and West. While other groups at camp said they didn't see any elephants, we saw close to 100 of them, including many babies. We also saw a lion, zebras, jackals, hippos, antelope, and many other animals. Sebastian and Brian were committed to ensuring we had enough time to see everything we wanted to, and wouldn't drive until we took all the pictures we wanted or just to watch the animals. The camps they selected were wonderful, including the food, accommodations, and safety.

excellent and attentive
Brian the coordinator is an excellent person, he organized in detail everything I asked him for. We spent 2 nights in two parks Tsavo East and West and I must admit it was excellently organized he will not disappoint you in your requests and expectations, as soon as I return to Kenya I will contact him again

Friendly and well organized
We had a great Safari experience. We spent 3 days and 2 nights between Tsavo East and West, wonderful landscapes, lots of animals and beautiful accommodation. Everything was well organised, they were always on time and did their best to make this holiday comfortable. Our driver Washington was very careful, we felt safe with our 2 daughters. We highly recommend this company!
