Aberdares/ Lake Nakuru/ Masai Mara 5 Days Lodge Safari

We had an absolutely incredible safari in Kenya, made even more special by our fantastic guide, Francis Ndegwa. Francis was always punctual, friendly, enthusiastic and exceptionally knowledgeable about the wildlife and the areas we visited. His passion for what he does was clear throughout, and he went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five, along with cheetahs, giraffes, hippos and countless other animals. Particular highlights included watching a leopard stalking its prey, seeing cheetahs with a kill and witnessing beautiful herds of elephants. Francis had an incredible eye for spotting wildlife, was endlessly patient with our questions and always made us feel comfortable and well looked after. A truly unforgettable experience, and we couldn’t recommend Francis highly enough. Thank you for such an amazing adventure!

Amazing travel for us, the food and hotel are good

The whole experience with the guide was amazing. He made sure we saw most of the animals and we got some amazing shots. He was very experienced. The places we stayed were also really good. There was some really good food.

Very expansive and good trip. Genuinely a different and unique experience to everything. Seeing so many animals with their kills was fantastic. It was 4 of us in the safari jeep, ample space for all. our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and we were the first to spot many different animals, such as a lion with a fresh zebra kill and a cheetah. We also had a balloon safari and it was genuinely a special experience.

Our guide John Kariuki made our Maasai Mara safari unforgettable. His knowledge, patience, and incredible eye for wildlife helped us see far more than we ever expected. He was friendly, professional, and fantastic with our family. Thank you, John, for three amazing days—we highly recommend him!

The experience was absolutely wonderful. Our guide Kandie was highly experienced in tracking animals, and you could tell he truly loves them. The sunrise and starry sky in Amboseli, the warm hospitality at Sopa in Naivasha, and the incredible wildlife in the Maasai Mara have left me with unforgettable memories

We had an incredible Kenya trip covering Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli, and the entire experience was exceptionally well planned and wonderfully smooth from start to finish by Explorer Kenya. Every detail was taken care of, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy the journey. A special mention goes to our guide, Martin, who was an absolute gentleman and a true professional. His knowledge, patience, and passion for wildlife made a huge difference to our experience. He genuinely tried his best at every opportunity to spot animals for us, often going the extra mile to ensure we didn’t miss a thing. Thanks to his efforts, we had some truly memorable wildlife sightings and unforgettable moments. Overall, this was a perfectly organized trip with seamless logistics, breathtaking landscapes, and amazing wildlife experiences. We couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to Kenya and would highly recommend this trip—and especially guide Martin—to anyone looking for a memorable and enriching safari experience

Our adventurous journey took us to incredible sights: a baby elephant drinking from the river, giraffes strolling under the sunset, zebras risking their lives to cross the river, and the thrilling moments of lions hunting at night. Our guide, James, was exceptional at finding the perfect spots to view the animals and knowing the best angles for photos. He took such great care of us, making sure we didn’t have to worry about anything. We joked that he was like our father, always looking out for us and taking care of everything.

Our tour guide James is excellent, responsible and humorous. The itinerary was arranged very well, and the car is also very new. +The guide showed us many wonderful scenes on the African grasslands and was very satisfied. He would recommend them to my friends.

We had an amazing experience with ExplorerKenia! Kenya itself was incredible, and our guide Steve made it unforgettable. He was extremely knowledgeable about the animals, always helpful, cheerful, and we couldn’t have imagined a better guide. Highly recommended!

This trip was one of the best I have ever been on. It was a such a beautiful experience to encounter animals in their natural environment. I couldnt recommend this company enough, my tour guide was Lucas and he was amazing; very thoughtful, knowledgeable, funny and professional. I did the Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara safari for 4 days which was amazing. I researched many companies before choosing and Explorer Kenya had consistent and excellent communication with the many questions I had, they seem to provide an excellent variety of trips and I prefer the types of vehicles used. I am extremely happy with their service. Also to add as a solo traveller I got a really personalised experience which meant I could decide which areas / animals to focus on.

Mr. Samuel Ndungu is a very good person，and he’s very professional. We saw many animals. Good journey, good people, I can remember this journey all my life. And this company is also good

Hello everyone, we are from China, and our itinerary is approximately 9 days, with 6 days for Safari and the other 3 days spent by the sea in Mombasa. It can be said that during Safari's days, we had a very good tour guide, which was Alex. He was very humorous and patient, with eagle like eyes to find the animals. The 6 days we spent together were very happy. I really look forward to meeting Alex again. In contrast, the three-day itinerary in Mombasa is very routine, with sunshine, beach, and a comfortable atmosphere. The hotel room service is very good, but there were some misunderstandings when arranging snorkeling activities, but the travel agency solved them very well. This travel agency was carefully selected by us before our trip. Their service, itinerary, and hotel selection were all excellent. Although there was a time difference between China and Africa, they replied to our emails the fastest. I hope everyone can choose this travel agency without hesitation after reading the message.

We had a fantastic trip and our driver James was brilliant on the safari. He found all the BIG 5 for us which was a real special experience. He is an expert tour guide and a safe driver. We had the best experience with him and would have no hesitation in booking him the next time.

We want to thank Explorer Kenya for our amazing safari! Especially we want to highlight how happy we are that Henry Kishoyian as our guide. During these five days Henry managed to hear what experience we would like to get and delivered upon it. As chaotic as Kenia traffic is Henry always remained calm and took care of us. Thanks to his experience, knowledge and network with other drivers and rangers we were lucky to see lion families twice, cheetahs, a leopard eating a gazelle on the tree from very close, countless giraffes, elephants, buffaloes, antelopes, hippos, rhinos, zebras, crocodiles, all kind of birds. We appreciated him to be passionate and caring about animal world, always respecting the rules to preserve the nature. We also want to mention he was very punctual. Once we are back in Kenya we cannot desire a better guide. Explorer Kenya is a very trustworthy company with huge experience. We were very happy with the service. Also we appreciated how quickly they responded to all our stupid questions through emails. They are flexible to follow your offers and wishes. Feel free to ask to book the hotels you like if they differ from proposed. Thank you one more time for delivering so much joy and memories!

We had the most amazing week with James Kariithi as our guide. We saw 30 animals not including birds, everything we hoped for, his driving, animals knowledge and skill using his network meant we had a dream vacation. It was my dream to see a leopard and we saw two in different parks. After only 2 days we were discussing what our “ next” safari would look like. We’ve travelled over 40 countries and so far this has been our best trip, Explorer Kenya and particularly James have made that happen. Thank you guys we can’t recommend you enough. See you soon!

We had a great time and everything worked almost to perfection. Bernad Njinu picked us up at the right time, drove us to the airport (EgyptAir 'lost' our bagagges) and then a wonderful new world unveiled before us for the remainder of our trip. Njinu drove us around for 8 days through Aberdares, Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara and Lake Naivasha. He's very experienced and dusted off his Spanish (which he hadn't spoken for 10 years) doing a a fantastic job. He seems to know everything about everywhere he took us, and what he apparently didn't know, he had a book with him where he quickly found it (birds, how can a man know so many birds?) Very good and careful driver, took us quickly to the places where the animals where spotted and when the rain caught us in the middle of the savanah he drove us safely back to the camp. Also, he did a a few quick changes to the schedule that made the experience better, avoiding going back and forth. We had a great time and are very satisfied with the whole experience. We recommend Explorer Kenya.

We had an incredible 5 day drive with Samuel, our 'nature man' guide. His knowledge and personality made our time so special. He made sure we saw all or favourite animals and had a wonderful experience. We saw the Big 5 and so much more, including the Wildebeest migration. The hippos at Ashnil Mara Camp were a highlight. The accommodation at Ark lodge and Nakuru lodge were great too and so unique to their environment. All of the meals and activities provided were amazing and everyone we met made our stays easy and comfortable. Explorer Kenya went above and beyond! Cannot wait to return again.

The company has a great customer service, we choose a English Safari, however our guide also spoke Spanish, Sami was very attentive and kind, certainly doing our days much better!! We deeply enjoyed our experience and recommend it!! Kenia it’s perfect place to have a Safari experience.
