What people love about Nairobi Tours
- Affordable 3-Day Budget Luxury Masai Mara Safari in Kenya - With Free Night at Nairobi Hotel
A wonderful trip, well planned! Everything exceeded our expectations during the safari. This was our first trip to Kenya and Sharon did an amazing job planning it, with very good group game drives, professional driver-guide (Mr. David), and accommodation at Enkorok Mara Camp.
- 3 Days fly-in Masai Mara Safari
Our 3-day safari with African Breeze Safaris was truly unforgettable. The wildebeest migration was a jaw-dropping sight, with the animals crossing the Mara River as predators waited nearby. Our guide, Zac, was amazing—he knew exactly where to take us to maximize our chances of seeing the migration and other wildlife. The Ashnil Mara Camp was lovely, and we enjoyed every meal. The Maasai village visit provided great insight into the culture. We’re so glad we chose African Breeze Safaris for this unforgettable adventure!
- 3-Day Maasai Mara Safari at Sopa Lodge from Nairobi
My review will not give justice to the amazing job done by George at Perfect Africa Safari. From the time we contacted George he has made this experience nothing less than perfect. George at Perfect Africa Safaris was not just a tour guide he was a host, travel agent and has become a life long friend. He first connected us with previous visitors who went on the Safari to give us an idea and it truly made the difference. Due to COVID our flights were changed and he was very flexible to provide the best experience possible. He also stayed in touched leading up to our flights to Kenya. He scheduled all of our accommodations while in Africa as well as arranged our pick ups and drop offs to the airport. From the time we landed in Kenya George made us feel at home. George was very prompt and extremely knowledgeable. He gave us an amazing experience while educating us on the culture, the people and way of life. He said ask any question and he always had an answer. On the Safari tours we were able to see all of the Big 5 some animals were so close that at arms length it felt as though we could pet them. (not allowed to pet them because they are wild) One of the greatest highlights was visiting the Maasai Village and learning first hand from the villagers about the culture. I can write paragraphs about this life changing trip but I’ll some it up with book with George at Perfect African Safari this has been one of the best experiences of my life so far .
