Reviews

My trip with Africa Vacation Safaris was incredible. Denis went above and beyond expectations tailoring a safari that fitted in all the places that I wanted to visit, including some that were a bit more unusual and off the beaten track. This included a walking tour of the Kibera settlement in Nairobi. My main guide, Joseph, was exceptional. He was friendly, knowledgeable and a great driver. He was also willing and able to accommodate changes to the itinerary that I requested one day - something that some guides are not prepared to do. I also never felt pushed to visit and buy things from souvenir places which can sometimes happen when you are on a tour. I was travelling alone and when I made an offhand comment that it was a bit lonely eating by myself, he made sure to always be available to eat with me from that point on. I went for more expensive accomodation options and feel that I got good value for money, but Denis would have found cheaper options if I had desired and I am sure they would have been great too. I would recommend Africa Vacation Safaris, Denis and Joseph to anyone travelling to Kenya.

This is my first time working with Denis and Joseph as a mission trip orgainzer myself. I had met them two years ago when I was on a trip someone else had organized, and contracted with Africa Vacation Safaris LTD. I kept the phone number of Denis and am glad I did. Everything has been done professionally, and with ease. Denis stays in communication all hours of the day and night, despite the 10 hour time difference. I was VERY happy with the safari, and, having done the hard work of arranging the first half of the trip for my mission work, I was more than glad to hand all the rest of the responsibilities over to Africa Vacation Safaris. We saw all the big 5, and more. EVERYTHING on our list to see was met. That's not always possible, but I am glad it worked out for us. We not only saw one leopard, we saw TWO! One of the higher end hotels had an opening for three rooms, and he switched us to them. I am Soooo happy he did. It was an excellent place to stay, and we loved it. I plan to return there on off season, and stay two nights, instead of one as part of our itinerary. They had water for us, and accommodated all our requests. Joseph was a great safari guide, with his book to identify animals and birds we asked about. He even found a recording of a bird call we asked about. I HIGHLY recommend this safari company for your trip to Kenya, Africa. Lynelle DeRoo, president, BFL INTERNATIONAL, Inc. a non-profit 501(c)3 organization
