What a ride! Spectacular experience in my life.
5/5

This trip changed my life! Huge thanks to Peter for crafting such a perfect itinerary, and to our phenomenal guides Nickson and Johnathan. Because of their deep expertise and amazing eyes, we saw the Big Five—yes, ALL of them! But the tour wasn’t just about animals. They also taught us so much about Maasai culture, language, and life. It was like a moving classroom with endless fun. Every moment was exciting, educational, and unforgettable.

We flew from Nairobi to Maasai Mara by Cessna, and I highly recommend this option—it was smooth, quick, and scenic. No long drives, just straight into the heart of the wild!

To be honest, I can’t imagine my life without this experience. I’m truly grateful I met Peter, Nickson, and Johnathan. You guys gave us something beyond words. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I love you guys!

An unforgettable safari experience!
5/5

We had such an amazing time on our 6-day safari tour – truly made our son's 2nd birthday and our 1st trip in Africa unforgettable.

Peetah, our travel consultant has been very accomodating and understanding with our countless changes with the accomodations and tours. He made the best suggestions that would fit our budget.

Songe, our tour guide / driver, was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and understanding. Amazing driving skills whether it's on the safari or on the road. We felt very safe the entire trip.

The accommodations were amazing. From Alama Camp (Masai Mara), Flamingo Hill (Lake Nakuru), and probably the best one, Tawi Lodge in Amboseli. All the staff from all the camps we stayed in were very hospitable and welcoming.

I can't recommend Peak Season Africa Safaris enough – they provided everything we hoped for and more. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very responsive, accommodating and heartwarming.
5/5

We had to make last-minute travel plans to Kenya and contacted Stephen with only one week left before our expected arrival.
He responded extremely quickly, secured accommodation at the peak of the Great Migration (n.b., they were all clean and well maintained), and planned our trip so we could fit in all our preferences (i.e., visit Amboseli, Naivasha, and Maasai Mara and do the boat safari and balloon safari — btw, this is a must-do activity which I strongly recommend). He even pushed back when we tried to remove Nakuru from the itinerary and insisted we visit — we ended up going and had an amazing experience seeing active lions up close and even white rhinos from a distance!! We were also lucky enough to see a group of flamingos too.

All this was possible because of our incredible guide/driver Tom. He always made us feel safe and was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. He was flexible on our requests to visit the Giraffe Centre when we were in Nairobi and always made sure we were happy. Our biggest highlight was being able to see the river crossing of wildebeests at Maasai Mara. Tom managed to pick a spot where we got a front-row view from his experience (he used to be stationed at Maasai Mara and knew the place inside out).

We were extremely happy with the services provided and strongly recommend this operator! Happy gaming!!

Perfectly planned and executed tour
5/5

We were super happy with our safari tour! Steve, the organizer, was always available in advance and responded to our questions within minutes. We were then picked up on time at the hotel by our wonderful driver and guide Daniel.
We spent eight wonderful days with him and enjoyed them very much! Daniel was always extremely friendly, caring, punctual and really enriched our safari! We were very happy to have him as our guide. He showed us all the wonderful animals, guided us safely over even the most unpleasant roads and always had a smile on his face. He explained the animal world to us and we learned a lot! We always felt safe with him! the tour was very well organized all in all, even when we had a small problem, Daniel was able to help us out immediately. Steve kept asking how things were going, so we felt very well taken care of and in retrospect we are very happy with this wonderful experience!

An unforgettable safari experience with Park season
5/5

We had an amazing safari experience in Kenya, organised by Peter’s Peak Season Africa Safaris. Right from the beginning, everything was handled so well. He even recommended a great hotel in Nairobi before our safari started, guided us through the visa process, and was always quick to respond to any questions. His attention to detail made the whole trip smooth and stress-free.
A special mention must go to our driver and guide, John (Wamaria). He is truly outstanding – immensely knowledgeable, caring, and an extraordinary spotter of wildlife. We learned so much about Kenya’s wildlife, culture, and history from him. He made sure we were well looked after throughout the safari, and his passion for his work really shone through.
Kenya itself is simply brilliant – breathtaking landscapes, abundant wildlife, and the warmest, most welcoming people. It is every wildlife lover’s paradise.
We cannot recommend Peter and Peak Season highly enough. If you’re considering a safari, this is the team you want to travel with!

Once in a lifetime experience!
5/5

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Peak Season Africa Safari and couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Stephen handled all of the planning from start to finish and was excellent throughout. Every detail was thoughtfully organised, communication was clear, and the whole trip ran seamlessly. Our itinerary covered Nairobi, the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Hell’s Gate, Amboseli and finished perfectly with some relaxation time in Diani Beach – a great balance of wildlife, scenery and downtime.

Our game driver, Kevin, was equally outstanding. He was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife and landscapes, very personable, and made every game drive enjoyable and informative. His experience really showed, and we felt well looked after at all times.

Overall, this was a superbly planned safari and beach trip. We would happily recommend Kevin, Stephen, and Peak Season Africa Safari to anyone considering a safari in Kenya.

Absolutely amazing experience.
5/5

Everything was perfect from start to finish and far exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Dennis, was extremely knowledgeable. He knows the National Parks inside out, and taught us so much about the wildlife. We would do another safari with Peak Season again in a heartbeat. Their communication was excellent, and they helped tailor a safari to our needs. 10 stars out of 5.

Peter and Sebastian made a once in a lifetime experience come true!
5/5

Our recent trip with Peak Season Safari was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we landed, we were warmly welcomed by our coordinator, Peter, who ensured every detail was perfectly arranged. Our driver, Sebastian, was exceptional, navigating the landscapes with skill and knowledge that made our experience even more enriching.

We embarked on an unforgettable journey through iconic locations like Masai Mara, Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and the stunning Diani Beach. Each stop was more breathtaking than the last, providing us with incredibly picturesque views and unique experiences. The accommodations were impeccable—100% all-inclusive with incredible buffets that catered to every taste. The hospitality we received was truly five-star, making us feel right at home throughout our stay.

The wildlife encounters were perhaps the highlight of our adventure. We were lucky enough to see an array of animals up close, including lions, giraffes, monkeys, and cheetahs. Observing rhinoceroses, elephants, zebras, hippos, wildebeests, impalas, gazelles, and an impressive assortment of birds was mesmerizing. Each sighting brought joy and excitement, and we even helped pull other jeeps out of the mud, with Sebastian’s Land Cruiser ! We by far had the best safari jeep in the entire group of vehicles! Our jeep never got stuck ,a testament to the quality of vehicle among safari-goers.

One of the standout experiences was the wealth of knowledge we gained throughout the tour, enriching our understanding of wildlife and the regions we explored. We returned home eager to share stories and facts with friends and family, ensuring that they too could appreciate the beauty of Kenya.

The warmth of the people we encountered, from our guides to the lodge staff, added to the overall experience. Their friendliness and willingness to share their culture made our journey even more meaningful.

In conclusion, this was by far the best trip of our lives. It exceeded our expectations in every way, and we left with cherished memories and a deep appreciation for the wonders of nature. We highly recommend Peak Season Safari for anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure. Thank you, Peter and Sebastian, for making this tour the best ever!

Fantastic safari company to travel with
5/5

From the first safari enquiry with the Peak safaris rep Peter there was great communication discussing what we wanted out of the safari and where we wanted to visit. The 4 x day tour was planned just for us and we were the only ones doing the tour. Our driver and guide Kevin was amazing and from the time he collected us from our hotel until he dropped us back again, we felt safe and well catered for by this lovely guide. Each day we discussed the itinerary and it we appreciated the flexibility available if we needed to change something.

We spent one day at Ambasili and stayed at a type of Eco camp called little Amanya. It was well thought out but in need of some serious repairs and updating. Unfortunately a thunder storm flooded our camping pod out and we had to be moved. The food was very basic here and ok for one night. The tour rep took our comments on board and said he would report our concerns. Very basic but clean beds.

The second day we travelled to Tsavo West and a night at the fantastic Taita Hills safari resort and spa hotel . This beautiful top notch hotel was 10/10 and we felt privileged to stay here. The food ,staff and facilities were amazing and we were not disappointed. We eat at the sister hotel Salt lick Hotel where the buffet selection for dinner was incredible and faultless.

The last day was spent at Tsavo East and we stayed at Man eater camp. Once again a unique and beautiful place to stay with the local river running behind the camp. This was a beautiful and quiet location to just sit on the veranda with a drink and enjoy the views and wildlife and sound of the river rushing past, including the crocodiles! Once again lovely staff and great quality food. Each day we had a great packed lunch provided and all plenty of bottled water. All we had to pay for was.any additional drinks we required. Once returned to our hotel in Nairobi we were very sad to say goodbye to our guide Kevin.

This tour was great value for money and i would be happy to
travel with them again. We saw some amazing animals and bird life during the safari and had some great experiences and photos from the trip. If youve not visited Kenya before just be aware that many of the roads are like dirt tracks and are very bumpy with pot holes. There is a lot of travelling involved and days can be long but you get to experience the real Africa away from the tourist attractions.
