Classic journeys indeed!
Right from the start when I sent an enquiry about Masai Mara till the point I was dropped back to the airport, the entire journey was planned so well. The entire service was excellent without any glitches.
The safari itself was wonderful and the camp was excellent. Classic was the only tour who could give me Ashnil Mara.
The tour guide was friendly and spoke good English. We managed to see all the big 5 in the jungle.
Even our trip to diani beach and the recommended hotel by Classic was unbelievable.
I had the best honeymoon I could've asked for!
Thank you Classic Journeys and Elvis.

Fantastic and recommended to all
Booked onto a 6 day classic safari. Booking process was great with lots of communication and emails. Classic journeys give great flexiabilty as we changed the tour and were we wanted to stay. Classic journeys were very happy to accommodate.
The driver Charles was amazing! He went out his way to get us the best spots on safari and took us to the best locations. He had great knowledge about the animals and local areas.
All 3 lodges on the tour were excellent and great standard. Would recommend this company and Charles for further safari tours.

Very easy to work with, great communicators, amazing experience.
The tour exceeded my expectations and was amazing. They did a great job of setting everything up for us even when we kept changing the schedule and amount of people coming. I’d highly recommend them!

Amazing views of some of the best places
Our tour was just amazing. From the meet and greet to the final farewell.
I saw the big 5 and more! Our tour guides and drivers were just great! They are all very accommodating and knowledgeable in all aspects.
Just wished we had better roads ( but that comes with the country) I would definitely come back and do it all over again.
The accommodations were beyond my expectation! Truly amazing experience

Fantastic safari in Masai Mara
From start to finish this safari ecxceeded all our expectations. Our driver Jackson was brilliant, and Ashnil Mara Camp was a great place to stay.
We ended up seeing 33 lions, 2 leopards and 5 cheetahs. Don't hesitate - just book.

We liked adventure, it was good enough, although the travelling between the camps was exausted.
We bought the 6 day Classic Best of Kenya.
-Generally, the people were amazing in terms of customer sat and attention to our needs and details. Our passionate and private guide James is really knowledgeable and make us lived the adventure in the jungle and the wild. As a former British colony, the communications were simple and strait forward although we learned some Swahili words in order to communicate with the Masai. The ultimate safari experience for us would have been a shorter travelling time (we spent almost 2 1/2 full days travelling by road from point to point); Here is our suggestion: from the airport, if you arrive at night, Longview suite in Nairobi, then Amboseli (2 days), Mara 2 days and last day in Nairobi. Nakuru does not worth the visiting. Food was ok. For bio brakes, stops were in tourists spots. We would have preferred non tourist traps. Lastly, ask for a jeep or equivalent instead of a caravan if you are travelling between January through the rain season, each $ of the extra $500 worth it (I haven't took it and according to folks who did, the confort was definitely better because of the road conditions). Overall good but definitely could have been better. Thanks to the whole Classic Journey team who made our safari unforgettable!

A fantastic experience
This is the 3rd time I travel with Classic Journeys. And have all 3 times had the same guides. We were met at the airport by Mathew and Geoffrey. Mathew is always helpful, nice and service minded. And made sure everything was as it should before we where ready for a new adventure. Geoffrey always has a smile in stock and is a wonderful driver and guide. We always feel safe. He never takes any chances. On game drive he is an open book with information about animal and plant life and reads the animals' reactions. Out of that he always finds the most exciting animals. We always returned full of experiences. I can recommend him as a guide and we will use him every time we go on safari. Classic Journeys is a company that has clients in focus and does what they can to make the safari perfect

Lovely safari tour in different national parks in Kenya
The safari tour was living up to expectations . Our driver/guide Geoffrey was an excellent driver and guide with a passion for the animals. We did see the big five!

A fantastic safari with a kind and knowledgable guide. January 2018
Leading up to the tour Charles at classic journeys was very accommodating and patient with us as we decided what trip to do. Always quick to respond and to offer suggestions.
Our tour guide Chamillus was fantastic, super knowledgable and could spot a pride of sleeping lions a mile off! We were in Tanzania and went to Ngorogoro national park and the southern Serengeti - we saw 4 of the big 5 and had we stayed an extra day I'm sure that sneaky leopard would have made an appearance! Our stay at Kati Kati camp was magical, the food was delicious. We wish we could have stayed an extra day! We did a 2 day safari but I would say a 3 day would be best to ensure 5 out of the big 5!
It was raining heavily on day one when we went but that just added to the excitement - Chamillus was an off-roaring pro and it was quite the ride through Ndutu!!
Thank you for a fabulous time Classic Journeys Africa!
