Fantastic day, brilliant guide, and excellent communication. - We had a fantastic day out with Wasili and our guide Peter. Communication was great prior to the trip, putting us at ease regarding pickups. Peter was an excellent host, safe driver, and informative tour guide. He made sure we were happy at all times and went to great lengths to maximise our experience. Amboseli is spectacular and well worth the drive. Thank you again!

Mt Kilimanjaro on my bucket list. - I wanted to see Mount Kilimanjaro ... from below, and I was lucky enough to see it for 20 minutes before it became cloudy. The animals in Amboseli Park are easy to get to and don't seem afraid by the proximity of tourists' 4x4s. Thank to my driver-guide Peter Njoroge for his enthusiasm in showing me the local wildlife and the local way of life and for his pleasant company on the 4-hour drive from Nairobi and back, as well as for his safe driving. I would highly recommend him. gl

Great vibes - Henry was great and I loved that he didn’t pressure me to do anything. He gave helpful tips and educated me on all the animals we were seeing. It was a ‘bad’ day and I still saw all kinds of animals.

Amazing Amboseli. - We had a great trip to this amazing National park. Evan’s was a wonderful driver and guide. He was friendly, knowledgeable and polite and went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and could see as much of the wildlife as possible. Expect a long drive. Don’t expect to see the snow capped peak of mount Kilimanjaro or all the animals you want. You will see them if you are lucky and the chances vary with the seasons. We were very happy overall and would highly recommend this trip.

Fulfilling experience of Amboseli, with someone passionate about the park and the Masai - I loved the tour. Peter was so amicable, professional and knowledgeable about the wildlife, the Masai and the land. I learned a lot during the trip. It was so easy going and full of beauty! Grateful for this experience. Even though it was a single day trip, it was just right. Extra driving but a full experience of everything.

Amboseli and Massai Village was a dream! Thanks Peter! - Our tour guide was Peter! He promptly picked us up at 4:30 AM at out hotel and we were on our way! We saw several animals including wildabeasts, birds, giraffes, elephants and more. Peter knew exactly where to take us and before we entered the park, we got photos of Kilamonjoro! It was breathtaking. Peter took his time listening to the types of animals we wanted to see and then took us to areas where he anticipated they would be. We did not see any big cats because they were not in the park at the time, but we enjoyed ourselves. The highlight of the tour was the Massai Village. The people were warm and the village leader Tui Tui was a delight! He showed us the Massai way of life and at the end you have the opportunity to support their village by purchasing their handmade items. It was so enriching and I'm so glad we had Peter there with us!

Worth It! - Well worth the money, drive & early morning. Expect to be picked up early to avoid the traffic on a 4 hour drive through interesting villages & landscapes. We were lucky enough to see Mount Kilimanjaro early in the morning when we arrived as it quickly clouded up & disappeared. What a sight to see with animals in the forefront. We saw so many different animals including giraffes, zebras, elephants, water buffalo, hippo, wildebeest, monkey & baboon, gazelles & impala, and so many birds due to the wetlands. Amazing views from the top of Observation Hill. Peter, our guide and driver, was incredible. So kind & knowledgeable about the country, the park, and the animals. We enjoyed a nice lunch in the park. Expect to pay an extra $60 each for park entrance online. The Masaai Village was interesting but also cost $20 each and they are very interested in making money & selling you their handicrafts at an extremely high price. I would recommend skipping it if you have no interest in being hassled for money unless you want to purchase their goods. Definitely bargain your price. A long day but incredible views & experience. Highly recommend. Water is provided but bring extra & sunscreen!

Fantastic to see wild animals in their own enviornment - The very courteous driver/tour leader was polite, cheerful and very knowledgeable about the roads, safari park and most important had a wealth of knowledge about the wild animals. The one negative point was lack of air conditioning in the safari vehicle and was uncomfortable during the hot sunny day. The price excludes entry to the safari park and involves tons of hassle to buy the tickets online with many personal details

Not quite what I hoped - Pickup was requested to be early at 4:30 to better see Kilimanjaro, so I woke up at 3:30 in my dorm room at a hostel. Nobody arrived until 5:30, leaving me standing by myself on a street in Nairobi in the cold and dark for an hour. The vehicle was far from the quality I was expecting given the price of the tour. It was old, squeaky, with stained fabric seats. My driver/guide apparently couldn’t find my location despite me sending it multiple times due to phone issues, so had to hire an Uber to lead him there after an hour of waiting. The Uber was much nicer than the tour van, and I was disappointed when it was the one that drove away. Julius, who arranged the tour, seemed nice, and the tour was mostly fine after that, but definitely not worth the price. If you’ve been on safari before, Amboseli likely won’t necessarily blow your mind. Kilimanjaro is the cool part, and what I didn’t know when booking is that there’s a fair chance you may not see it any given day due to clouds. However, if you do, it is well worth the trip - just be aware of the risk.
