This boat ride promises to unveil a plethora of the region's birdlife. You will travel with a resident expert who will help you identify some of the region's 400 bird species. Keep your binoculars ready to zoom in on the pink-backed pelicans, the goliath heron, and the saddle-billed stork.

A well-organized and thrilling safari! The itinerary was packed but not rushed, and we saw so much wildlife. The Aberdare National Park was a hidden gem. The only downside was a slight delay on one of the travel days, but it didn’t ruin the experience. Would definitely book again!

This safari exceeded all expectations! Every park offered something unique, and the accommodations were great. The Masai Mara was the crown jewel—seeing the Great Migration was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The team was professional and attentive. Can't wait to return!

An unforgettable adventure! The diversity of landscapes and wildlife was astounding. Our guide was fantastic, spotting animals we would have missed on our own. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because the Wi-Fi at some lodges was spotty, but honestly, it was nice to disconnect and enjoy nature. Highly recommend this tour!

This safari was a dream come true! Amboseli with its elephants against Kilimanjaro, Lake Naivasha's hippos, and the breathtaking Masai Mara were all highlights. The lodges were comfortable, and the food was delicious. The only minor issue was the long drive to Masai Mara, but it was totally worth it. Would do it again in a heartbeat!

The 8-Day Best Mid-Range Kenya Safari was absolutely incredible! From the moment we were picked up in Nairobi to the final day in Masai Mara, every detail was perfectly planned. The game drives were thrilling, and we saw the Big Five plus so much more. Our guide was knowledgeable and made sure we had the best experience possible. Highly recommend!
