We saw the famed Big Six of Africa, but also, a family of ducks, a hippo alone in a water hole, a leopard trotting across grassland, the famed Mara River with its crocs and hippos and the landscape takes your breath away. We didn't expect to be fascinated by the variety of birds, by they proved to be an unexpected highlight

Masai Mara is a superb safari destination. It's large expanses are home to plenty of wildlife. Driving through it is definitely back-country, with mostly off road trails. There are very few improved "roads" in the reserve, so it has a bush vibe. You can feel that you're in the wilderness, and not just a mile off the nearest highway. Most of the transportation time within the park is spent 4-wheel driving through the many trails which generally allow close-up viewing of the animals.

Masai Mara was by far the best park to visit on our trip. The park is rather flat, making it easy to leave paths at times; to see some special animals. Lots of lions, elephants, zebras, antilope etc. A great park where one can truly see so much. Definitely recommend this park to anyone going for the first time, but even if you're an avid safari-goer, this park is a beautiful landscape.

It's a classic, a must visit. The quantity of wildlife in this park is amazing. We saw the Big 5 in only 2-3 days, and were delighted. It's also very big, so it feels like you're not going around the same places all the time. Amazing experience.

I liked the work of this company. We left airport and manager took us to the office, Meneh met us, we paid money and went to the Masai Mara park. Our camp was great, it was comfortable and close to the park. We saw the big 5, special thanks to our guide Richard, he is very professional, he tried to do our trip unforgettable! I will recommend this company to my friends! Olya and Denis from Russia.

Excellent and well rated tourist destination for all the people interested in African Safari.
The excellent radio networking/ communication between drives and tour guides ensures that all tourists can spot / get a glimpse of all big 5 animals.
Kenyan people are very organised and friendly. They are very open to foreigners.

I hope the road from Nairobi to Masai Mara is developed in the years to come. It would be stressful for the drivers and tourists with the existing road network.
