Kenya: reviews from our travellers

"Expert Africa was great helping us to arrange our trip. We loved the variety between Lewa and the Mara. Both Parita and Claire were very helpful and knowledgeable on Kenya. I would highly recommend Expert Africa and our trip to Lewa and The Mara.

The only negative was Expert Africa wanted a wire transfer vs a credit card. This was a bit of a challenge from the US given all the Internet wire from fraud. That being said I would still highly recommend Expert Africa." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 8 on a Kenya safari

"Outstanding trip from beginning to end.

Anything from discussing with the Expert Africa agent (Jessica) to plan the trip to the actual trip was seamless and very professional. Jessica identified the best place for what we wanted to see (rhinos).

She had everything carefully planned and it all went according to plan.

Kifaru house was amazing and we hope to come back soon!" Read full review: 3 nights in Africa; 3 on a Kenya safari

"The trip was fantastic and without criticism. The planning and detailed instructions first class. The guides terrific and Maruska Adye Row just so very helpful.
Had a small query at one stage and accessed the emergency email and was answered immediately and the appropriate information supplied.
Expert Africa is just simply the best." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari

"We had a fabulous few days in Kenya. As previously when we traveled with Expert Africa everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The camps were great and the experiences varied. the recommendations were perfect for us.

Thank you for organising such a wonderful itinerary!" Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 8 on a Kenya safari

"Lack of rains was severely impacting the country and the Mara area where I spent the week was extremely dry - with knock-on effects to vegetation and animal movements which meant I didn’t see as many spotted cats as usual.

I did though add 2 lifer birds, inc Karamoja Apalis, so a big thanks to the guides and the camp for arranging a special birding trip for me!" Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 7 on a Kenya safari

"The trip was well organized with excellent camps, guides and food. It was a trip of a lifetime which far exceeded my wildest dreams of what a safari would be. I had the best experience that I could have." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 11 on a Kenya safari

"We had a great time.

Wish the wallet and package had arrived sooner.

But overall very happy and loved meeting Richard! A bonus. 😊

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Perhaps just earlier mailing of final paperwork." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 11 on a Kenya safari

"The overall trip was amazing.

Truly a "trip of a lifetime" but I don't want to say that because I plan to come back!!

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

I would recommend getting materials out much earlier, like the guidebook on Kenya and the travel wallet (which was lovely but we had all already bought one by then). However, the friendly service is much more important to me and it was superb from Richard." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 11 on a Kenya safari
