Reviews from travellers on this tour

Laura

Solo Safari in Kenya

02-Aug-2018

Our guide Ben was amazing! His knowledge of the Parks, route choices, spotting Animals and his in-depth knowledge of the animals and parks are fantastic. On top of that, he improvised to help me get memorable photos. Other parts of the tour were also wonderful. Despite spending days in the Masai Mara, it remains on my bucket list to continue such a memorable experience as I have just had. Will I be back? You bet! Laura, Australia

Best Safari Experience

18-Nov-2021

Sarah was excellent during the initial stages when we were planing this safari! Her knowledge is unbelievable. We learned so much about the animals, about the habitat, and Kenya itself. The personal service was great. If you are looking for the best safari experience then look no further than Royal Private Safaris. Their knowledgeable staff will make it an unforgettable experience.

Safari in Kenya

10-May-2018

We are extremely happy and satisfied with the service provided through Royal Private Safaris. Sarah was very professional and helpful in providing safari options and giving feedback which made the situation easy for us. Our tour guide Ben was exceptional and made sure that we were always comfortable and pleased throughout the trip. The entire experience was a highlight - from being in Nairobi for the first time, to visiting the Masai Mara, to driving from Mara to the beautiful stop-over at Naivasha and getting some background history throughout the drive. Our trip couldn't have been any better. I will always use RPS for any future trip and will be referring the company to all who are considering making the trip/ Safari in Kenya. The trip exceeded expectations, especially the level of comfort and knowledge provided by throughout the safari. Topnotch guide experience! -John, USA
