Budget Tours & Trips to Kenya Reviews
- Affordable 5-Day Amboseli & Masai Mara Kenya Budget Joining Tour for groups
We booked cheap 3 days Masai Mara budget tours at Bon Voyage Kenya Safaris and enjoyed our 3-day Nairobi safari Masai Mara shared tour. Great 4x4 game drives and a 60-minute boat tour in Lake Naivasha. We explored Masai Mara National Reserve the way we wanted to with our own private safari guide! Strongly recommend this company Bon Voyage Safaris they were extremely affordable, with timely and professional services making it ideal choice for our group. Kudos!
- 10-Day Budget Luxury Masai Mara Kenya Safari - Affordable Wildlife Trip & Beach
Great migration African safari tour through 2 countries (Kenya and Tanzania), lots of Maasai tradition and culture and history as well as the Serengeti plains, big 5 game and Ngorongoro crater was a pleasant surprise. Charles the 4x4 safari jeep driver-guide was fantastic, accommodation lovely. Highly recommend this Tanzania and Kenya safari tour operator
- Maasai Mara Wildebeest Migration 2025 Safari
Getting more into the detail to find out what you really want. We missed mentioning that we are not into mass tourism, we enjoy individual and smaller lodge camps, fine dining, personal service. The tour itself was great, our guide was perfect. Just the accommodation wasn't perfect...beside our last one. This last night/lodge was the key to come back on day :-)
What our customers ask about Budget Tours & Trips to Kenya
What is the average daily cost for budget safari tours in Kenya?
Budget safari tours in Kenya cost between USD 100-250 per day. Basic camping tours in places like Masai Mara can start at USD 102 per day. Your tour fee covers essential services: lodging meals game drives and guide expertise. The 3-Day Masai Mara Budget Camping Safari is a prime example, with a daily rate around USD 102 that includes full board accommodation and wildlife viewing. TourRadar travelers often mention the value, with one noting: "The trip provided incredible value with really unbeatable pricing for what was included."
What additional costs should I budget for beyond the tour price?
Plan for several extra expenses when booking your Kenya safari. Park entry fees vary between USD 260-460 based on the season. Other costs include balloon rides at USD 450 Masai village visits for USD 20 and daily tips of USD 10 per person. You'll also need money for drinks and personal expenses. A TourRadar traveler shares this advice: "Remember to factor in tipping for guides and staff - they really deserve it for their excellent service."
When is the most affordable time to visit Kenya for a safari?
The best deals are found during the "green season" from March to May and November to December. During these months tourist numbers drop and so do the prices. Park fees at Masai Mara cost USD 260 from January to June compared to USD 460 in peak season (July to December). A TourRadar traveler notes: "While low season offers better rates, be prepared for some rain and muddy roads, though wildlife viewing remains excellent."
What type of accommodation can I expect on budget tours in Kenya?
Budget accommodations mix camping and basic lodge stays. In Masai Mara you might stay at Lenchada Tourist Camp with its comfortable tents while Lake Nakuru offers places like Lanet Matfam Resort. The facilities are simple but comfortable and meet basic needs. According to a TourRadar traveler: "The lodge at Masai Mara had an excellent staff with a superb chef. The accommodations were good to excellent, offering a great value safari experience."
What optional activities are available on budget Kenya safaris?
Your safari can include extra activities like balloon rides over Masai Mara for USD 450-500 visits to Maasai villages at USD 20 and boat trips on Lake Naivasha for USD 25-30. Nature walks are also available at some locations. A TourRadar review states: "The optional Maasai village visit was fascinating and well worth the extra USD 20 to learn about their culture."
