Wonderful we managed to see all the big five before lunch and last but not least we also managed to see a lion with its prey in its mouth! Ronald is a kind and experienced gentleman who led us throughout the safari, the facilities we stayed in were clean and equipped with the basic comforts necessary for this type of experience. The meals were also good, even if simple! I highly recommend this experience, the transfer from nairobi to masai mara takes about five and a half hours

Magical experience! Our driver Moses was very nice! The price/quality ratio is top: tent + individual bathroom/toilet. Highly recommended!

Very well organized. Better than expected and Alex has been a great driver/guide.
