2 Days at Amboseli National park

Our 2-day safari in Amboseli National Park was absolutely unforgettable, and that is largely thanks to our incredible guide, Obed. From the moment we met him, he was so friendly, kind, and professional, and he made us feel completely safe and at ease throughout the entire trip. Everything was arranged seamlessly by Tim, who we were recommend to by a work colleague, and Obed truly brought the whole experience to life. His knowledge of the wildlife and the park is outstanding, and he went above and beyond every single day to make sure we had the best possible experience. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and his passion really shone through. It was also fantastic having the safari as a private tour. The van was very comfortable, and we loved being able to move around between seats depending on the views—this made such a difference during game drives and allowed us to fully enjoy every sighting. The accommodation at Oilepo Lodge was included as part of the package and was absolutely phenomenal. Obed made sure we were well looked after at all times. Our room had an incredible view of Mount Kilimanjaro, which was simply breathtaking to wake up to. We enjoyed delicious three-courses for all meals, and the restaurant overlooks a watering hole—watching elephants come down for a mud bath was just magical. The safari itself was beyond anything we could have imagined. We went on a sunset game drive as well as a full day exploring the park, and Obed made sure we saw as much as possible. The elephants were a true highlight, especially with Kilimanjaro in the background, and we were incredibly lucky to spot a lion (which is rare in Amboseli!) and even witness a cheetah hunting—an unforgettable experience. Obed truly made this trip what it was. His warmth, expertise, and dedication set him apart, and we honestly couldn’t recommend him more highly. We will be recommending him to anyone we know visiting Kenya—he is simply the best at what he does. We were genuinely so sad to leave, and now that we’re home we already miss it so much—it was truly the best trip ever. We wish we could do it all over again and it’s an experience we will never forget.

Very good trip, the guide help to find so many amazing places and views, very kind and professional, unforgettable experience

We recommend Obed because we really enjoyed our time with him. He is calm, very professional, and humble, and he doesn’t overcharge. He also speaks very good English, so communication was easy and very informative all the way to Amboseli. We booked him from Nairobi for three days, and when we return to Nairobi, we will only use him.

The views were amazing we were able to see herds of elephants at close range, pride of lions, giraffes, zebras... We were privileged to have a very knowledgeable and efficient tour guide "Obed" who made sure we didn't miss any amazing scenery. Would surely recommend him again for more trips.
