In June, 2019 I sent emails to eight different Mombasa safari tour companies. Not only was Faith Chebet of Kenya Tru Nomads Tours the first to respond, her email answered the three basic questions in my initial email. Several of the other tour operators never responded and the others responded with basically a generic email that required me to then send them another one with my same basic questions. After I finally received pricing information from the other ones, and Faith sent that to me right away, I was able to compare. I liked how complete and detailed Faith’s quotes were (and she also helped me narrow down which park made the most sense given our constrained time frame), and decided to book our overnight safari with Kenya Tru Nomads for when our cruise ship was going to be docked for two days in Mombasa in November, 2020. Via CruiseCritic I ended up getting 25 other cruise passengers that were interested in doing the overnight safari. Faith communicated very efficiently and quickly with me and we all paid our minimal deposit via PesaPal (Africa’s version of PayPal, I think). I continued to email Faith because passengers would come up with different questions that they needed answered. Faith always responded quickly and thoroughly. Fast forward to March and April, 2020 and many passengers decided to cancel the cruise because of the coronavirus concerns. I was sending Faith many cancellation emails and I was hearing back from the passengers that they were getting their deposits refunded within a week. Finally, in mid-May, 2020 the cruise was canceled because of COVID-19 and the rest of us had to request our deposits be refunded. Once again, all of them were refunded to us, without issues or hassle, within one week. I am so sad that I will not be able to go on the safari in Mombasa. If the safari itself was anything like Faith‘s communication skills and thoroughness, we are going to miss a wonderful tour. So, I can’t actually review the tour, but as someone who has put many small group tours together for cruise ship passengers, Faith was a pleasure to work with and the most professional tour company person I ever dealt with. I am very sorry that I will not get to actually meet her or Kenya Tru Nomads employees in November and I am praying that the people and economy of Mombasa are able to withstand COVID-19.

Spotting the BIG TWO during our game drive and also the giraffes, zebras, antelope, etc . We saw lions and buffalos! We were unlucky since we didn't see leopard, rhino and elephants. We booked with Bushtop Safaris who sent us the itinerary immediately after payment. Our tour guide, Joseph picked us at the agreed time. He engaged us throughout the whole trip, educating us on the history of the park. During the game drive, he educated us about all the animals he spotted. From the giraffes, zebras, impalas, gazelles, different bird species, etc. For anyone visiting Nairobi National Park, try to be there early in the morning to get a chance to see as many animals as possible and book with a credible tour company to get value for your money!

Overall Ratings

Lake Bogoria is most famous as being one of the few destinations that is flocked to by millions of lesser flamingos during the migratory seasons. Is is a spectacular sight to see the shallows of this salt lake stained pink by the mass of birds. Lake Nakuru on other hand is one of the most successful Rhino Sanctuary boasting a good number of both white and black Rhinos, Rothschild giraffes among other wildlife. Birding in this Park is also rewarding as you get to see so many water birds like Pelicans. Hellsgate National Park is one of the most atmospheric park in East Africa and one that gives one an opportunity to cycle in the wild with animals Lake Naivasha boat rides are rewarding in birds and sceneries plus an opportunity to come close to hippos. If you love hiking Mt Longonot that is 2700 metres above sea level is a challenge that will be waiting for you as you complete this tour of the Great Rift Valley

This was beyond our expectations, very well organized and professional courteous service from all. Our Guide Joseph was awesome, his knowledge of the plains and all the wild animals was just incredible. We drove together for 4 days, and trusted him 100%. We will go back, and request Joseph again as our guide, we will also recommend Africa Vacation Safaris to anyone interested in having an experience of a lifetime!

I was lucky enough to find Julius of Wasili Kenya Safaris and I am so very glad I did. I have traveled to two parks with him including Nairobi National Park and Amboseli National Park on a different trip. After my first trip with Julius, I realized what an incredible and knowledgeable safari guide he was and was lucky enough to book with him an overnight trip to Amboseli. He knew everything answer to every question I had, he knew where to find the animals and where they would be at dawn and dusk. Julius always position his vehicle so that I would have the best view and photo opportunity. I have amazing photographs and fantastic memories of these trips, thanks to Julius. Needless to say, I highly recommend him and Wasili and can’t wait to return to Kenya to travel with Julius again. Thank you Julius for an trip, I will never forget.

Everything was just amazing. Manager Silas was super supprotive and provided all the necessary advise prior to booking. We saw all of The Big 5 and much more: lions, elephants, buffalos, giraffes etc. at a very close distance. Our guide was super proffesional and knew where to go in order to find animals. The hotel was also great and very comfortable, with glass walls and swimming pool. Highly recommend this company for organizing your safari trip.
