Amboseli is one of the places in Africa to view large herds of elephants up close. If you are keen enough, you will notice that the park is made up of different habitats ranging from the dried-up bed of Lake Amboseli, wetlands with springs, the savannah, and the woodlands.

Private tour - Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara in 5 days with Alex Masila - We did a 5 day 4 night safari in August with Alex Masila (both driver and guide) who has 15 years of safari experience. We spent 1.5 days in Lake Nakuru and 2.5 days in Masai Mara and saw the big 5 and countless other game and bird as well. Learned a lot about all the wildlife we saw. The 4x4 toyota was very comfortable and spacious especially since we had a private tour and the roof popped open as well. Wanda was very communicative over WhatsApp when we were planning and booking so it didn’t take long to secure the dates and accommodations.

A Safari Trip of a Lifetime with Morning Star - Well we don't know where to start !! All the way through my husband booking and planning this once in a lifetime trip Alice from morning star has been absolutely amazing sorting out every possible place to visit and explore. Alice was outswhen we had a issue with the ETA visa and without her and her manager's inpwe would have had to start our trip a few days late but with their input we were only 12 hours late and able to start our Safari on the day planned, we genuinely can't thank her and her team enough. The airport pick-up was with the lovely Alice, happy friendly Carol and the lovely driver Simon ( the smiling machine) I believe they call him, he truly lives up to his name 😀. Our transfer to our Safari guide was done by the lovely Augustine another happy and informative guide/driver a pleasure to be with. Now to the piece de resistance our tour guide ALEX !! This man can spot a animal miles away and his knowledge of Kenya and their animals is so much better than Google itself. This man is a walking encyclopedia, nothing was too much trouble for him, he was funny, happy and totally charming and we have made a friend for life. You cannot choose a better tour operator than Morning Star as they are the best and you cannot beat PERFECTION!!

Amazing - Morningstar were fab. I'm so glad we booked with them - Alice in head office was amazing. She helped us plan the perfect break at a really great cost. I must of changed the plan 10 times and nothing was too much trouble. Everything went so smoothly and there were no hiccups at all. Willis, our driver was excellent - knew the parks like the back of his hand, always knew where to spot the animals and went the extra mile to make our trip perfect. 10/10 would recommend.

Trip Of A Lifetime…Thank you Morning Star Safaris - Simply Superb…. And Amazing….! 5/5 We (family of 4), have just spent the most amazing week on Safari with Morning Star Safaris in Kenya. Dennis did the most amazing job putting together a customised itinerary for us, which included game reserves (Masai Mara/ Amboseli), Lakes (Nakuru/ Naivasha), cycling in Hell’s Gate, a walking safari as well as meeting and spending time with a Masai tribe. Morning Star provided a brilliant personalised brochure including a breakdown of all of the costs, and Dennis himself almost always responded within a couple of hours, we don’t think he ever slept! Thank you Dennis…Our then there was our Guide… Alex! What a legend! He met us at the airport in a brand new Land Cruiser and took us on the most amazing adventure… Alex has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the the parks, the animals, the birds, the fauna as well as a forensic knowledge of Kenyan culture, history, politics, music, movies and sport… his passion, energy, enthusiasm and humour were infectious, it felt like he was a member of the family by the end of the trip, not just our safari tour guide… thank you Alex! You’re a legend…and thank you Morning Star for helping make our trip to Kenya, the trip of a lifetime.

Far far exceeding expectations - erfect planning, perfect execution, perfect and prompt communication. Our guide Alex - we could not wish for a better guide. Very friendly, knowledgeable; our Safari went exactly according to the schedule ; he was very keen to show us maximum possible on the Safari, but yet taking care we have time to relax and enjoy the moments (family of 4, kids 14 and 6) ; everyone had really good time.
