What people are saying about Nakuru County

This safari trip to the Masai Mara was an experience of a lifetime! We were picked up at the agreed time at our hotel by our driver and guide, Ronald, who was pleasant, welcoming and informative. Once at the camp after a 6-hour drive, we were accommodated in a small and cozy tent, which had everything we needed. No more and no less. The beds were comfortable and it was a positive surprise that the tent had a private toilet and shower. After dinner and a short break, we drove to the first game drive in the afternoon. And what an experience! We didn't know what to expect, but this was beyond all expectations! The next day we had 10 hours of game drive. We saw lions, elephants, leopard, cheetah, hippos and many more. Ronald told us about all the animals we drove past on the savanna and was patient when we wanted to take lots of pictures. We had a fantastic experience and after 3 years of waiting due to COVID-19, a dream finally came true. Thank you so much, Ronald!

It was a unique and well organized experience. We were lucky and had the unique opportunity to see all the big animals in the Masai Mara and in Nakuru. Thanks to our guide Albert for his knowledge and all the information he gave us. He is an excellent professional, and in addition to the high level of education, he knows every corner of the giant parks. Thanks Albert! panos from greece

We really enjoyed the tour. We were happy to watch numerous wild animals and the driver kindly exchanged the information with other drivers in the park and took us to the locations for some specific animals. The accommodations were good enough for a budget tour.

It was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life! The safari was breathtaking. The accommodation and the food were also great. I highly recommend everything.

I traveled solo and I felt very safe. I met amazing people and made great memories. Our tour guide Samuel was the best!
