We had booked this trip in June 2026 for months and very unfortunately had to cancel last minute due to family medical emergency. We are very grateful to Shoor for their understanding and help to minimize our deposit cost with our untimely cancellation. We appreciate their professionalism and communication during the entire process.
Had an amazing experience with Shoor Travels, who organised our 3-day Masai Mara trip seamlessly. Everything from the Nairobi–Masai Mara round trip to accommodation, meals, and safari drives was perfectly handled. The accommodation was very comfortable, and our Masai guide was not only incredibly friendly but also a highly skilled driver, which made the safari even more enjoyable. Highly recommend them for a stress-free and memorable experience!
We spent over a week and a half with Shoor and their driver/guide, Peter. Our experience clearly exceeded our expectations. Shoor had made all our arrangements in advance, and the safari went like clockwork. Peter was truly the element that made the adventure a total success. He is knowledgeable about flora, fauna, the local economy, and anything else we could think to inquire about. We would use Shoor again in a heartbeat.
Our guide has a great knowledge and he tried to find as many game animals as possible. Also, we received excellent customer service from the Shoor Safari office - updating itinerary, lost&found etc.
Did a Nairobi National park tour with this company as well as hiring a safari minibus with them to use for a couple of days my wife and I had free in Nairobi recently. Use the vehicle to do a day trip to Lake Naivasha. Pretty good service from Shoor Safaris in Nairobi and the tour in the park was quite enjoyable.
This is a must. Our guide Clove made sure we got to see all of the animals. Best time to see animals is on the early tour. Excellent
