Kenya: reviews from our travellers

"This was the trip of a lifetime!

All the places we stayed were excellent, the service was superb and the food was delicious! Being up so close to the animals was an unexpected thrill.

I would highly recommend the trip!" Read full review: 26 nights in Africa; 13 on a Kenya safari

"This was my first trip overseas!

What an unbelievably fantastic adventure it was. No words or photographs can capture the experience. The trip was so much more than my expectations.

Nancie was absolutely wonderful and so helpful with out never ending questions.

BRAVO to one and all!" Read full review: 26 nights in Africa; 13 on a Kenya safari

"We had a lovely holiday and, as has happened twice before, we’ve come back wanting to go again!!!

Everybody we met in Africa was welcoming and helpful and all the camps we stayed in were delightful. Our tents were luxurious and the grounds well-maintained and pretty.

We had excellent wildlife sightings overall, even if those in the Mara National Park were a little disappointing, and we eventually had our fill of big cats!

Our visits to the Elephant Orphanage and the Giraffe Centre were a pleasant way of beginning and ending our holiday.

Richard couldn’t have been more helpful during the booking process and with our visa applications and everything run like clockwork once we arrived." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 12 on a Kenya safari

"Not as good as most previous years due to lack of access to the Triangle and to the Mara.

Mostly due to weather conditions but also due to lack of investment in terms of accessing the conservancy." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 9 on a Kenya safari

"We love our trips to Kenya to see wildlife.

The combination of the Laikipia area and the Mara works well for varied wild-life viewing." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 13 on a Kenya safari

"Given unprecedented flooding and travel conditions, Expert Africa was extremely supportive and always there for questions and problem solving along the way.

The camps they helped us choose were great and checked every box on our wish list for animal sightings.

One note is that when we were redirected to a less expensive camp because of conditions, the process for getting a refund was awkward." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari

"This trip was clearly very well designed, to take us from the "beginner safari" of Nairobi National Park with the lights of the city in the distance to the intense life of the Kicheche camps with morning and afternoon drives. And ending with the comfort of Loldia house was perfect.

This was my first safari and I was surely spoiled by the people and the sights--I didn't really think I'd be seeing elephants walk past my bedroom window!

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Not really -- this trip was a logistical feat and not one ball was dropped.

Thanks for a great trip." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 13 on a Kenya safari

"I highly recommend working with Expert Africa to organize an African safari.

Richard was extremely knowledgable about Kenya, all the possible camps, and was there from start to finish with good advice.

This was the second trip my family has taken with Expert Africa. My wife and daughter went to Namibia in Feb. 2022, when Covid restrictions were easing, and had an excellent self-drive safari.

If we go back, we would happily consult with Expert Africa again (though I am disappointed that they don't offer safaris in northern South Africa, including the Kruger area, since we may well want to bring our grandchildren someday and perhaps would like to be able to mix a Kruger conservancy with Zambia's South Luangwa area, or try the malaria-free Marakele area)."
