If you’ve never seen a rhino in the wild, Lake Nakuru National Park is the place to go. Lake Nakuru is one of Kenya’s renowned soda lakes and is world-famous for attracting millions of flamingos to its alkaline shores.In Lake Nakuru National Park, you can see a variety of diverse and beautiful landscapes. Flanked on three sides by steep rocky escarpments, dotted with dense forest and bushy grasslands, the park offers incredible natural scenery all year-round. My individual approach comes from a keen sense of reality (and humour) and aim to be friendly, informative, and entertaining with stories, conversations amd perhaps a little music to illustrate some of the many facets of our country.

Inclusions: Lunch, Bottled water, Private transportation

Our time on this safari was one of the highlights and our favorite things we’ve experienced while in Kenya. From the time of pickup George made the trip enjoyable from beginning to end. He explained right away what to expect, went over the itenary provided best options and great recommendations. George’s knowledge about the animals was so thorough and fascinating it kept me and my two young children engaged the entire time. George is the absolute best with children. Keeping them engaged , stopping to answer their endless questions, and just all around fantastic. At the end of the trip my children didn’t want to leave. The camp at Enchoro wildlife was fabulous, the accommodations very comfortable with great lunch and dinner and nice hot showers. There’s also a campfire each night where the residents and staff come together and share stories and open dialogue that we really enjoyed. I highly recommend George as a guide but book him fast because he’s in high demand!

I had a wonderful time at the falls. The lunch buffet setting near the second waterfall was scenic and the animals at that location like the horses were also really nice. The host was also really kind and accommodative.

With a day to spend in Kenya...on New Year’s Day at that...I was hoping to enjoy they beginning of a new year at the Nairobi National Park and Giraffe Centre. Huge thanks to Mr. Dicky for making this possible. He was indeed quite helpful with booking. I received prompt responses and all of my inquiries were answered with no complaints. It’s important to note that I am very indecisive but Mr. Dicky was quite patient with me throughout the entire process. Thank you. About the tour: my flight got in at 5:30am and I was super pleased to meet my guide as soon as I walked out of Arrivals. I didn’t have to stand around lost, one of my fears for this trip, being that I didn’t have a local SIM card to make any calls. Thankfully, all went well. I came out and there was my name. After meet up, we started the tour where I spent about 12 hours between both parks and lunch. Time wise alone, I definitely got my money’s worth as I didn’t expect the tour to be that long. The price with the fact that it was only me on the tour, I have no complaints. At the national park I was able to see lions, giraffes, rhinos and a few other animals whilst getting the best pictures. The driver was a God-sent. He drove and drove and drove. Made sure I saw as much of everything possible, even when I was getting a bit sleepy and he could’ve easily called it a day. Additionally, when my battery was about to die, he was quite helpful finding somewhere for me to charge my phone. I gave up on charging but he made sure I had enough battery life to continue taking pictures and to take me through the rest of my trip. Thank you! Throughout the tour Mr. Dicky made sure to call to check-in. From pick up, then at various times whilst on tour. This was unexpected, but I thoroughly appreciated it being that I dealt with him during booking and had no correspondence with driver prior. This simple act provided a sense of comfort. Later on during the trip, I ended up having to pay the entrance fee for the giraffe centre. I was unaware that I had to do so and again I greatly appreciated Mr. Dicky speaking to meet directly about that. He could’ve simply told the driver to relay the message. He took the time to explain and make sure I was ok with it. Bless you. About the giraffe centre: it was quite nice, but I could’ve done without it as it was a bit crowded. That could’ve been because of the date I visited. Of course this bit of dissatisfaction had nothing to with KT & Safaris as they simply took me where I wanted to go. And I specifically requested the centre. If I had to re-do, I would skip it. The giraffes were absolutely lovely and seemed to be well cared for, it was just the crowding I disliked. All in all, it was a great experience. Very professional and efficient. Communication was A1; even after the tour Mr. Dicky checked in to make sure I was satisfied with the service. I highly recommend the company and I will definitely use them again on my next trip where I plan to bring my 9yr old to Kenya. Thank you K T & Safaris for allowing me to have the experience I envisioned and then some.

7. 4 Days Fascinating Big Five Safari in Kenya

Kencom/Ambassadeur, Nairobi, Kenya Claudious Tours and Safaris Ltd

This breathtaking safari is to experience the best wildlife adventure in two famous national parks in Kenya. Masai Mara is famous for its exceptional population of big cats, game, and the annual migration of zebra, Thomson’s gazelle, and wildebeest from the Serengeti every year from July to October. This migration is so immense called the great migration. Lake Nakuru National Park is best known for its thousands, sometimes millions of pink flamingos nesting along the shores. The surface of the shallow lake is often hardly recognizable due to the continually shifting mass of pink flamingos. Experience the best of both Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru National Park!

The accommodations, food, and general treatment provided by this horrible company were horrific to say the least. None of the list of accommodations were ever fulfilled and places we were promised to visit were never fulfilled. The food was all but inedible. The vehicles were so old and beat up that there virtually was no padding or support in the seats. Our trip was scuttled 2/3 of the way through and the company refused to refund us for money that we lost because of their negligence. This is but a scant overview of what can be expected. Buyer beware. Any good reviews of this company most likely came from them not anyone who paid for their services. They are scam artists.
