Unbelievable experience

Our family of eight travelled from Ireland to Kenya for a 7 day safari with Meektrails Safari, and from start to finish, the experience was absolutely incredible.A special thank you to Esther, who helped us plan the perfect itinerary. Every detail was organised seamlessly, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the adventure. During our trip, we stayed at several wonderful locations, including Sopa Lodge in Amboseli, Avian Court at Lake Naivasha, Ziwa Bush Lodge near Lake Nakuru, and Zebra Valley in the Maasai Mara.From the moment we arrived in Nairobi, we were looked after exceptionally well. Our guide, James, met us at the airport and was outstanding throughout the entire trip. He was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to ensure we had the best safari experience possible. His knowledge of the wildlife, parks, and local culture was second to none, and he was always happy to answer our many questions. Thanks to James, we were able to see everything we had hoped for and more.This was our family’s first safari, but it certainly won’t be our last. Kenya exceeded all our expectations. The wildlife, breathtaking landscapes, and warm hospitality of the Kenyan people have left a lasting impression on all of us. We have made memories that we will cherish forever.There were so many highlights, lunch in the Maasai Mara, a cycling safari through Hell’s Gate National Park, spotting wildlife at Lake Nakuru, a hippo cruise on Lake Naivasha, and a magical sunrise hot-air balloon ride over the Maasai Mara followed by breakfast in the bush to name a few.Thank you to everyone at Meektrails Safari, especially Esther and James, for making our dream safari a reality. If you’re considering booking a safari with Meektrails, do not hesitate, you won’t be disappointed.We are so sad to leave, but it’s not goodbye, it’s tutaonana baadaye, see you later.

Our safari with meektrails safari was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. We visited amboseli, lake Nakuru , lake naivasha and the Masai Mara. We booked with Esther who was very prompt with responses and eased all concerns and answered all the questions we had . She went above and beyond for us , she arranged with the first hotel to sing happy birthday to my dad with a cake for his 50th birthday which made his day ! And she also arranged for an upgrade in our last hotel and the hotel staff came out with a cake for my mam and dad to celebrate their marriage which was last month .As for our driver James , he was outstanding and made our trip as enjoyable as it was , he was easy going , very informative and knowledgeable, he is such a kind person and we are so sad to be leaving ! He was on time for every pickup and drop off , genuinely could not fault one single thing about this whole trip .If you’re considering meektrails for your safari don’t look any further you have your people here !

An Unforgettable Kenya Safari with Meektrails Safaris Pvt Ltd

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Kenya Safari with Meektrails Safaris Pvt LtdIf you’re looking for the perfect Kenya safari experience, look no further than Meektrails Safaris Pvt Ltd — they truly delivered beyond our expectations!From the moment we landed, everything was seamlessly organized. The pick-up was right on time, and that punctuality carried through every single day of our trip — no waiting around, no stress, just pure adventure.Our driver-cum-guide was an absolute gem — incredibly knowledgeable about Kenya’s wildlife, landscapes, and culture. He had an eagle eye for spotting animals we would have easily missed, and his passion for the safari made every game drive feel personal and exciting. You could tell this wasn’t just a job for him — it was a calling.The safari Land Cruiser was spotless, comfortable, and well-maintained — exactly what you need when you’re spending long hours on the road through the bush. Great visibility, smooth pop-up roof for game viewing, and enough space to relax between drives.🏕️ Accommodation — Perfectly Curated StaysThe accommodation selection by Meektrails was nothing short of exceptional, with each property adding its own unique charm to the journey:• 🌿 Kibo Safari Camp, Amboseli — A wonderful base to soak in the magic of Amboseli, with the majestic Mt. Kilimanjaro as a backdrop. Comfortable, well-located, and full of character. • 💧 Lake Naivasha Sopa Resort — A gorgeous retreat by the lake, beautifully set and deeply relaxing after thrilling game drives. • 🦩 Lake Nakuru Sopa Resort — Perfectly positioned to explore the flamingo-laden shores of Lake Nakuru. The Sopa brand consistently impressed us with its comfort and hospitality. • 👑 Zebra River Camp Luxury → Upgraded to Royal Zebra River Safari Lodge Premium Luxury — And then came the cherry on top! The Zebra Collection truly went above and beyond by upgrading our stay from Zebra River Camp Luxury to the Royal Zebra River Safari Lodge Premium Luxury — an absolutely stunning property that left us speechless. This unexpected gesture made our final days in Kenya feel utterly royal. Hats off to the Zebra Collection team for this incredible surprise!🥗 Food — A Vegetarian Indian Traveller’s Delight!One aspect that genuinely amazed us was the food across all properties. As purely vegetarian Indians, dining abroad can sometimes be a challenge — but not here! Every camp and resort went out of their way to ensure we had delicious, thoughtfully prepared vegetarian meals that were both wholesome and flavourful. It was heartwarming to see how well they understood and catered to Indian dietary preferences without us ever feeling like it was an afterthought. Truly remarkable hospitality!Overall, Meektrails Safaris Pvt Ltd crafted a flawless Kenya experience — from the punctual transfers and expert guiding to the outstanding accommodation choices and incredible food. Whether you’re a wildlife enthusiast, a first-time safari-goer, or a vegetarian Indian traveller worried about food options — Meektrails has you completely covered.We cannot recommend them highly enough.

Bird, Beasts, and "African Massage"

We (a group of three) went on the 6-day Private Safari at the end of May 2026, right before the peak season began. Everything was well organized, and other than liaising with Meektrails before the start of the trip, we barely had to lift a finger.The safari got started before we even arrived at the first destination. The drive from Nairobi to Amboseli already offered a glimpse of some of the wildlife we’d be seeing. Zebras, giraffes, and ostriches could be seen right off the highway. Our guide, Robin, had extensive knowledge of not just the animals, but also all the areas we drove through on the way.It only got better from there.Each excursion offered a unique experience - even if it was a destination we’d been to already. We watched the sun set over Mt. Kilimanjaro as herds of elephants made their way home for the evening, and came back the next morning to find dazzles of zebras and journeys of giraffes grazing on the vegetation. Each park and reserve offered different wildlife, and we were constantly seeing and learning new things. Across Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Nakuru, and Maasai Mara we were introduced to beautiful birds, incredible beasts, and outstanding locals.What really brought the whole trip together was Robin. A good tour guide is friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate. Robin was all of that and more. For the entire 6 days we were together, he not only taught us about animals (can you tell the difference between a Thomson’s gazelle and a Grant’s gazelle?) and Kenya, but also taught us some Swahili and was eager to learn some Estonian. He’s a master of maneuvering the truck and positioning it in the best possible place for photos. But most importantly, he’s just a fantastic person. Three of us travelled to Kenya, but it felt like four friends on the most scenic road trip imaginable.If you’re even considering taking a trip to Kenya, do yourself a favor and go. Book with Meektrails, ask for Robin.Asante sana to Meektrails, and suur aitäh to Robin!* "African massage" refers to the experience of driving on offbeat, safari trails.

8-day tour of Maasai Mara and Amboseli

We did a ten-day safari through Nairobi, Maasai Mara and Amboseli, it was truly the trip of a lifetime!The experience was incredible from start to finish. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five, along with countless other animals including cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, elephants and so many more. The wildlife sightings were amazing, and the landscapes across the different parks were varied which meant we never felt bored!Our guide for the majority of the trip, Anthony, was outstanding. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and always went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. He worked hard to find great wildlife sightings and made every day enjoyable and memorable. The same can be said for our guide in Amboseli, James, who met us at the airstrip following our flight from Maasai Mara. James was helpful and welcoming. We had a brilliant time in Amboseli due to his extensive knowledge about the area and wildlife.Throughout our time in Kenya, the company was extremely helpful. Our safari vehicle was very comfortable and regularly cleaned. Our travel via road and air was seamless and enjoyable. It was clear all staff wanted us to have the best safari experience possible.One thing we particularly liked was the flexibility of our drivers. If we wanted to go out and do a full-day game drive, that was facilitated. Likewise, if we were tired and fancied a half-day drive and then time to relax at the camp - this was also fine. That ‘hakuna matata’ attitude and the ‘pole pole’ pace when we wanted it is something I miss already!We had such an amazing time and would highly recommend this safari to anyone considering a trip to Kenya. Thank you to Anthony, James and the whole team for an unforgettable adventure!

Such an amazing adventure. We visited 3 parks in 8 days. Each park was amazing in it's own special way. The difference maker was our guide Onesmus! He was AMAZING. His knowledge of the areas, animals and plants was incredible. We visited Amboseli NP, Ol Pejeta Conservancy and Samburu National Reserve. My wife and I took a private tour and it was worth the extra expense. Onesmus would stop and look at anything we wanted to see. (even small birds). He took us to see so many amazing animals. We had the time of our life! Thank you to William and Daniel as well for amazing customer service and professional communication thru the entire process. I can't recommend Meektrails enough.

We had the best time, once in a lifetime trip for a family of 4 with a 16 and 12 year old in tow. Got to see all that we could have wished to on our 7 day safari from Amboseli to Masai Mara.

Wow! Well done Meektrails and our INCREDIBLE guide Philip. 8 day safari (Amboseli, Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara) with airport transfers through Meektrails.The head office, Ester and Daniel, were excellent. Very accommodating and personalised a safari for our budget. Even some nice honeymoon touches. We chose slightly more budget, so we had (beautiful) accommodation just outside the parks (max 15 mins extra drive in morning, but you actually got to see more local culture and safari this way). All the hotels are vetted in person by Meektrails, so all of a great standard (we’ve stayed in the ritz-Carlton down to a garden shed). Amazing food, we ate everything on offer, zero tummy isssues. Very clean and fresh!We are British, and were reluctant to send a lot of Monday to a different country, thankfully, Meektrails accepted an online deposit and proof of flights as our intention to book, and we paid the rest when we arrived (on reflection - not needed - legitimate reliable company).Our guide, Philip, really made our holiday. Extremely knowledgable, saw the big 5 and so much more. He worked hard to get all the best vantage points for photos - lovely lovely guy. He accommodated everything we needed. Stopped whenever we wanted to stop (on the safari drives and transfers). Very friendly. Organized everything from breakfast/lunch/dinner, visits to Masai village visits, nice places to stop for food and a stretch between the reserves, optimum safari routes - Faultless.Like any safari trip with any safari company, always check your selected hotels, vehicles and travel times so you know what to expect. The negative reviews for Meektrails were down to people not understanding their booking vs their budget. We are exceptionally happy.Thanks a million!!Marty and Isabell
