I had a fabulous 6 day road trip in Kenya, starting in Nairobi and traveling to Lake Nukuru and the Maasai Mara with a friend and our guide Dan. Lake Nukuru was absolutely beautiful - so many areas and scenes we saw looked like something right out of Lion King - zebras with giraffes, water buffaloes and impalas all together. We even saw flamingoes! On our way to the Maasai Mara we stopped and spent an overnight at a Maasai Cultural camp called Maji Moto. Hosted by a Maasai warrior (Stanley) , we got a rich immersion in the Maasai cuture, including their schools, their homes, and learning about their guiding philosophies, which really helped us also appreciate the Mara once we arrived at the park. The balloon safari was also amazing - it really gave you a sense for how vast the savannah really is.

Masai Mara

This balloon ride was magical - the captain was very knowledgeable and communicated everything clearly, starting with the safety brief, sharing insights of the Mara as we were in the air, and also ensuring that our group was taken care of at the breakfast after the flight. The balloon ride itself was really cool - gave us a totally different view of the Mara after being on jeep game drives for a day and a half prior. The breakfast was also lovely - we watched Zebras migrating back to the Serengeti as a backdrop to our meal.

Maji Moto

The illtalala Community visit was incredible and a highlight of our time in Kenya. Our host, Stanley (a Maasai warrior), along with several more warriors welcomed us with a traditional greeting and song and presented us with our very own Shuka (a traditional wrap worn by the Maasai). We had a wonderful lunch in the bush and then visited the local school, learning about the progress the children are making and opportunities to continue strengthening their opportunities. We also visitied a Maasai homestead, learning how they live and support their families, as well as how the Maasai Tribe functions. We ended the day with a Nature Walk and dinner in the bush, meeting many Maasai along the way. It was a wonderful experience and gave me an opportunity to quickly immerse in the elements that are the Maasai people

Everything about our visit was authentic, not staged.

our host, Stanley was wonderful - he answered any question we had and loves his tribe.

Hello Noelle

Thank you again for all the feedback you shared with me. I am so grateful to you and Margarita for taking the time to have the call with me and for being so open in discussing every aspect of your trip. It will certainly help me improve my services, and I learned so much from hearing about your experiences.

You are indeed two very special ladies, and I really would have loved the opportunity to meet you in person.

Perhaps one day we can plan another trip to Africa together. I would absolutely love that! ❤️

Our guides God bless and George were fantastic. Request them!! George maneuvered well in heavy traffic in and out if Nairobi and always provided fantastic views of the wildlife. We had bird enthusiasts in our group and Godbless was very knowledgeable. He also gave us excellent views of the animals. He had an engaging personality and it was obvious he had good relationship with other guides.
Joseph did an excellent job of curating a customized experience for our group of six.
He was responsive to our questions.
It was an experience of a lifetime.

Thank you so much for your kind review. We’re delighted to hear you had such a wonderful safari and that John made your journey so memorable. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with him.

We also appreciate your feedback regarding the flamingos at Lake Nakuru. Unfortunately, the high water levels have caused many of them to relocate in recent years. That said, they do occasionally return, as they did last year, so sightings are still possible, although never guaranteed.

It was a pleasure hosting you, Roger, and we hope to welcome you back to East Africa again soon.
