Matthew · Hungary
It was a very pleasant experience all the way from the beginning to the end. I got in touch with Inspired Budget Safaris two days before arriving at Nairobi, and I was looking for a mid-level multi-days safari trip in both Kenya and Tanzania. The person, Claire, was very responsive and got back to me with a very comprehensive quote covering my needs in going to several parks and reserves for 7 days and then the same in Tanzania for another 7 days. I got a q. uote back the same day, which I'm very pleased. I was picked up at Nairobi airport and went into the office to do my payment for the safari to start the very next day. The person who picked me up was very pleasant, friendly, and helpful. We chat all way to the office in downtown Nairobi. I wasn't sure what to expect, and he made me feel very comfortable. He later took me to the Safaricom to buy a local SIM card I met Martha in the office, and she went through the itinerary in Kenya in details with me, and I used my credit card to pay my cost. Pleasant, professional, and very smooth. Claire came to my hotel with the guide/driver to give me a briefing of my itinerary. Claire was very helpful and professional. The Safari itself was very pleasant, since I decided to go for a private safari. The driver/guide, Martin, was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. We managed to see 3 of the big 5 many times and a leopard once in Nakuru National park, and we didn't see a rhino, which was expected. I'm very pleased with seeing many wildlife. Since I went in a low season, so the park was not crowded, which made viewing the wildlife a pleasant experience. The lodging experience in Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivisha, and Amboseli national park was all good, more than meet my expectation. The food was great, and the staff in all the lodges was friendly. Since I'm a swimmer, I got to use the pool facility almost daily. I'm pleased. The experience in Tanzania was basically the same: very pleasant and met my expectation. I went to Serengeti, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and Ngorongoro for 7 days. The driver/guide, Willy from 7 Wonders, was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. I got into Tanzania on their election, and unfortunately the WIFI was cut off completely sometime in the evening on the election day; therefore. I was being cut off from contacting my families for almost 5 days. However, the driver/guide made me feel very safe. In fact, it was peaceful in the national parks. In fact, I enjoyed the peacefulness in the national parks. For the safari experience in Tanzania was very good. I got to see all big 5 several times. I enjoyed seeing lions, elephants, buffalos, wilderbeest, zebra, gazelles, ostriches, and several other wildlife. I'm very pleased with my safari experience. For the lodging, I'm also very pleased. In Serengeti, we stayed in a tented campsite. This gave me the experience of being in the nature. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and I'm very pleased. I would recommend for whoever is interested in doing a safari in Kenya and Tanzania.

Our Kenya & Tanzania Safari with Inspired Budget Safaris We had the wonderful safari experience with Lilian and her team at Inspired Budget Safaris. From the very first communication, Lilian was always quick to respond, patient with all our questions, and very clear in her explanations. She made the whole booking process very smooth and gave us confidence even before we landed in Nairobi. From the moment we were picked up at Nairobi airport, everything was perfectly organized. The vehicles were clean and comfortable, and our drivers/guides were extremely knowledgeable, reliable, and friendly. They made sure we were always safe and comfortable, while also sharing so much about the wildlife and culture. Our itinerary was well designed — starting with Amboseli, then Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha, then the incredible Masai Mara, and finally crossing into Tanzania for Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We were lucky to see all the animals we had dreamed of, including lions, elephants, rhinos, and even the Great Migration in Serengeti. Each park had its own magic, and the way the trip was planned gave us a chance to enjoy them without feeling rushed. We truly appreciated the value for money — the lodges and camps chosen were comfortable, the food was good, and the service everywhere was welcoming. What made the biggest difference was Lilian’s personal touch. She kept checking on us throughout the journey and made sure we were always happy with the arrangements. For us, coming from Dubai, it felt like traveling with family in a new country. We could fully enjoy the beauty of Africa without worrying about anything because we knew we were in safe hands. We highly recommend Inspired Budget Safaris and Lilian to anyone planning a safari in Kenya and Tanzania. This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and we are grateful to her team for making it so special.
