4.6/5A nice tour
I had a 4 days tour with outerworld team, Masai Mara, Nakuru lake and Naivasha lake. I went there with my wife, and it was our first experience in Kenya and as a safari. It was very nice, well organized, and gave us the possibility to visit those areas mostly with a jeep and on somme short slots by feet (Crescent Island, Hell’s gate). Hotels were ok and as proposed in the offer. Contacts with the agency where very efficients and useful, always trying to find the good way to match our requests while managing a group tour. Result is a very nice tour for an amount that was competitive compared to the other offers I had received. But the game changer was clearly the availability and efficiency of my contact at the agency. Our driver has been nice too, looking for the best spots to see animals, and being really a guide at different steps.

Esther · Kenya
Good and interesting
The tour was good and splendid would like it too next year. I had to even go ahead climbing Mt Kilimanjaro and it was just something else, I cld never imagine myself climbing but there I was with full energy. I thought I couldn't but I tried to my best.. Serengeti was there too. And I enjoyed watching the animals from a distance.
