7 Day Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Samburu Safari

We took 7 days Safaris to Kenya with Perfect Wildness Tours and Safaris in the first week of August. It is an amazing and impressive trip. The company provided good quality and professional services. Part one was a group tour in Masai Mara Nation Park and part two was a private tour in Lake Naivasha/Hell’s Gate and Samburu National Reserve. The company has the best drivers. Tony is one of them as tour guide. He has sharp eyes to catch wild animals even they are in bush shadow areas with his professional skills and knowledgeable about the wild animals. We highly recommend his experiences.

We just finished a 7-day Safari from Nairobi to Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha (shared Safari) and Samburu (private Safari). Everything has gone very well and we have enjoyed a lot these days. The guides (Jeff, Joffrey and John) have been all very professional and the organization was great: always on time, kind attitude, driving safe, knowledgeable about animals... Really great drivers-guides!!! One of the hotels was doing renovations at the time of our visit and Betty changed it before our arrival for a better one. The communication with her via email/phone has been really good. Our emails were always replied in the same day. We would definitely repeat again!

We actually did about 18 days in total with Perfect Wilderness Tours, including Nairobi, Gorillas in Uganda, Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and 5 days in Zanzibar. We were a private group of 5 people and the and experience in Eastern Africa was amazing. Our guides, Denis, Nathan and Douglas were great, and they looked after from us from first pick up at airport to final drop off home. I highly recommend this tour company. I organised it all via email from Australia and will definitely be recommending them to anyone considering travel to East Africa.

Basically as mentioned in the title, our car shut down shortly after pick up on the high way, so we slowly drove to a gas station and had to wait there for this driver to call for help from a "friend", and he later took almost half a day to fix his car when we had to squeeze a little space sharing with other customers in his "friend"'s car to visit Maasai Mara the first time. The next day he showed up promising the car is good to go but it shut down again in the middle of nowhere and the mid day heat. He tried to fix it for almost an hour so we had to sit there sweating, finally I emailed his company-perfect wilderness to complain and we got a car exchange on the third day. But the car is not landcruiser and much smaller than that we ordered in the booking and the driver/guide was not as knowledgable as the previous one, I even spotted a lion way before he did.. The trip went smooth in the following days but to conclude, if the company paid attention to these problems to well maintain their cars, we could have had a much better start.

If you’re looking for a tailored budget-friendly tour, this one suits you best. We appreciate the team effort of the staff which made our trip more memorable and fun. We would like to thank them especially Mr. George, Beatrice and our tour guides namely Sam, Peter and Jimmy for being flexible and accommodating to our needs during our stay. Definitely highly recommended. -Kat and Emma :)
