We enjoyed the 3 days of Safari with baby bird tours very much. Everything from the pick up to the drop off at Diani Beach went very smoothly. We enjoyed the stay at the lodges as well as the variety of animals we have seen at Tsavo East and Taita Hills very much. Consequently we can only recommend baby bird tours for a safari at Kenya!

I did a 3-night, 4-day safari with Baby Bird Safari as a female solo traveller, and honestly… it was unreal from start to finish. From the very beginning, Chris was excellent with communication during the booking process; super clear, friendly, and professional. Payment was easy too: half deposit upfront, half cash on the first day, which felt very straightforward. The trip itself felt like I’d visited three different countries in one safari. Amboseli National Park was absolutely unreal; the landscapes and wildlife were next-level and something I’ll never forget. One of the biggest highlights was staying in Tsavo West, where the lodge actually left meat out for leopards. Watching them come so close in the wild was insane; something I never imagined experiencing like that. The lodge in Ngutuni was outstanding and right next to a watering hole, so you could sit back and watch animals come and go. It felt peaceful, wild, and special all at once. As a solo female traveller, I felt completely safe the entire time. There was lots of laughter, cracking jokes, sharing music, and learning about different cultures; it felt relaxed, fun, and genuine. Truly an unreal experience, and I’m so grateful for it. Thank you so much, Baby Bird Safari. I’d recommend this tour to anyone without hesitation!
