The wellplanned tour gave us the very best of Kenya together with your fantastic guide/driver.
5/5

Everything worked out very well. The tour was quickly confirmed. All our questions were answered. The service was excellent. Anthony, our guide/driver, was fantastic. The camps where we stayed in Mara, Lake Nakuru and Mount Kenya were all very nice. The food delicous. We stayed two nights in Masai Mara, one night at Lake Nakuru and one night at Mount Kenya. This tour is just great. It could be worth it to extend the tour with one more night at Mount Kenya. To relax and enjoy the view from the camp. We do hope to be back !

4 day safari in Masai Mara and lake Nakuru
5/5

Safari was great! Our guide John was excellent. He and Robert organized a five star safari for us. We saw all big five in Masai Mara (even Leopard which hard to spot). Evrything was well organized and just-in-time. Thanks a lot for great trip.

Great safari
5/5

We loved our safari, we saw the big fives and all other small or bigs animals. Besides the animals the Masai Mara is very beautiful.
The Ashnil camp recommended by Beacon Safari is absolutely wonderful, we never thought we could find that in middle of the reserve.
The driver really finds the best place to show us everything, with a total respect of the animals and of the reserve.
What we have really appreciated of Beacon Safari is the flexibility of the driver, we have customized the program following his recommendations and our wishes, and this is very important as it is not possible to anticipate everything. We ended up, on top of the Masai Mara, to visit the lake naivasha and to have a tour in Nairobi.

Wonderful adventure!
5/5

Mail contact with Rob went smoothly and he responded quickly and everything felt reliably and professionally. We were picked up at the airport by Anthony who drove us to La Miasion Royale in Nairobi. The day after Kenneth came and picked us up and we started our trip to the Sarova Game Lodge in the Masai Mara. The hotel was very nice and the staff was very nice. After three days safari Kennet had seen to it, with a Little bit of luck as well, that we had seen the Big 5. The safari was absolutely amazing, both in the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Kenneth made sure we were able to take great pictures and made the safari an adventure that we will never forget. Next time we'll go on safari, we will definitely book with Beacon safari! Thank you!

Everything we expected
5/5

From the time we were picked up at out hotel in Nairobi to the time we were dropped back there on the fourth day the trip turned out to be a truly unforgettable experience which was superbly organised from start to finish.
The accommodation chosen in the Mara was genuinely 5 star and our driver/guide James was brilliant not only in his knack of being able to find the big 5 every day but also in his knowledge of the animals which he was happy to pass along to ourselves
We would recommend Beacon safaris to anyone wanting to take the safari trip of a lifetime

Excellent experience - John is an awesome guide!
5/5

We visited Maasai Mara last January, and booked our 3-day safari with Beacon Safaris. Our experience was painless throughout. We booked the trip online with fluent e-mail communication with one of BS managers. Then, our guide (John) was waiting for us in Nairobi's airport on day 1 and drove us directly to the Mara. John is a legend of a guide! He was excellent at his job, he was very nice to us and did everything he could to maximise our experience and game viewing. Nothing to complain.

Beacon Safaris is outstanding.
5/5

We booked a 4 day safari trip for family of 5 to Masaimara and Lake Nakuru with Beacon Safaris in March. The entire experience was wonderful. Robert was prompt to respond to every e-mail, and made the entire booking process very smooth. The properties he booked were right in the middle of the jungle and very comfortable. Meals were excellent with lots of choices. I want to say a special and big "Thank You" to Moosa, our game driver. He was so pleasant and made sure we saw the Big five on the first 2 days. We also saw a whole bunch of other animals and birds. Moosa made sure we got some perfect pictures of animals and the scenery. We saw amazing sunrise at Lake Nakuru. The image of a Lion walking under a rainbow after a rain shower will be always be stuck in my memory. The safari was once in a lifetime experience. Thank you so much for such a beautiful experience!

Our 12 day African safari was an experience of a Lifetime!
5/5

Our excellent personable drivers, Eric (in Samburu and the Masi Mari) and Augustine (in the Serengeti), made certain that all the schedules were met, provided knowledgeable information about the wildlife (birds included!), and went beyond the call to ensure that we had a memorable experience. Emails were very promptly answered by Robert and all information provided quickly. We have no hesitation in recommending Beacon Safaris for a great and memorable experience.

3 Day Masai Mara Trip from Nairobi
5/5

We had a great trip with our driver/guide John! John was early to pick us up from the airport which was great because we landed early. He was a great driver getting us to our camp by 12:30pm for lunch (about 6.5 hours). He was kind and very knowledgeable about the tracks and animals in the park. We did 3 long game drives and John was always trying his best on the radio to find the best views and animals for us. He even managed to find the elusive leopard on our last game drive just before we had to the leave park. He was very thoughtful and caring and when he found out my husband was in pain from a pinched nerve he changed his route to find us the most comfortable roads to drive on. We got to see the big 5 and so much more! He was a safe but efficient driver making sure our time was effectively used. He even showed us around Nairobi city at the end of our tour which he insisted on even though this was not expected. We stayed at Ilkeliani Camp which was beautiful and the food was fantastic. It had a good wifi connection and the beds were very comfortable. The only issue we had was not having enough hot water in the morning hours. The staff were great!

The van was spacious and had a great open roof! The only improvement would be to have some air conditioning for the highway driving as the dusty roads mean the windows need to be shut most of the way, this meant the car was very hot!

Trustful, great Safari, great guide.
5/5

I can highly recommend Beacon Safaris for the organisation of your Safari in Kenya. Robert answers to all your requests in a very professional way and you can trust 100%. The guide we had, Antony, was great: a very careful driver (important on the Nairobi-Mombasa Road!!) and very interested in showing us all the animals in Amboseli. He was always on time und very polite to us. For my next Safari in Kenya I'd for sure book again with Beacon Safaris!
