“I had an amazing experience! Sammy was extremely kind, knowledgeable and the best tour guide I have ever come across. I felt day 1 was ok, however, day 2 made up for it. Please make yourself aware of the migration season for an even better experience. The accomodation is very basic, if you are a light sleeper I do not recommend staying on the camp site, I would advise staying in one of the lodges. I got to see so many animals and truly had a great experience. Thank you so much”

A practical review of a 3-day budget safari from Nairobi with Maasai Mara game drives, ensuite tented lodging, meals, and key extra costs.
“We upgraded to a Land Cruiser/Jamba Mara accommodations and didn’t regret a thing. The Jambo Mara was a huge step up from the basic tent camp offered. While it wasn’t quite a 3 star hotel, the staff was amazing, food was good, and the room were very cool glass houses. We also chose to pay $20/person to visit the Masai tribe. This was a must do in my opinion. Outstanding cultural experience. Regarding the game viewing, we got very lucky the 1st evening and saw a ton of animals. I was concerned we’d be bored the next day. That couldn’t have been further from the truth. Sooo many amazing animals.…”
