Reliable and Professional Safari Experience

We had an amazing experience with this reliable and professional travel agency. From the start, Lencer provided quick and professional service when helping us plan our itinerary, making the process smooth and stress-free. Our driver and guide, Johnathon, was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife. He provided fascinating insights and answered all our questions with patience and expertise. It's important to remember that spotting animals is partly a matter of luck, so we recommend spending a few extra days on the savannah for the best chances. Each evening, we discussed and adjusted the next day's plan with Johnathon based on various factors like weather, road conditions, and our energy levels. This flexibility and open communication were key to making the trip enjoyable and tailored to our needs. We highly recommend this travel agency for anyone planning a safari in Kenya. Their professionalism and attention to detail made our trip unforgettable!

Flexible and reliable tour operator

Our tour operator contact was Lencer. She was very flexible in organizing our travel itineraries to meet our preferences and needs in terms of where we wanted to go, how we wanted to get there and how long we wanted to stay at each place. She also made sure that we were picked up on time by our various drivers and guides, that we reached our various destinations safely. This wasn’t easy as we travelled to see family in Nairobi, visited 2 safaris and beach vacation, all on a very tight schedule. Our various guides were also very good and knowledgeable, particularly David in Masai Mara, who made sure we saw as many animals as possible on our safari trip. On our last day of our trip, we discovered that we had a lot of extra time at the airport in Nairobi with nothing to do. Lencer then arranged for us a last minute trip to the Giraffe centre that she took upon herself to take us to. It was all in all a very enjoyable and adventurous trip. We were well taken care of 100% of the time.

Timely reply to messages to solve problems.

The cost-effectiveness is very high, the staff are very friendly, and the driver is very cooperative with our travel. The only drawback is that the initially agreed upon hotel was not successfully booked, resulting in price changes.
