A Perfectly Organized Trip – Highly Recommend!

I recently traveled with Meektrail Safari, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the very beginning, Valentine was incredibly helpful in planning and organizing every detail of our trip. She was always swift to answer our questions and ensured that everything was very well arranged.During our journey, we were accompanied by Ben, who was knowledgeable, professional, experienced, and friendly. He not only knew where the animals were, but also could put us in the best position to see them. His stories about the animals and the Kenya culture made the experience even more enjoyable. He went beyond to make sure we had a memorable trip.From the accommodations to the activities, all exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend Meektrail Safari to anyone looking for a well-organized and unforgettable safari experience.Thank you again to Meektrail and Ben for making this trip so unique. I will definitely be booking with you again in the future!

A Majestic Safari!!

Planning a two-week safari is a aunting task especially when you want to experience and “see” as much as you can. We needed someone who have the resources and the patience to manage our needs. Meektrails stood out right away as they took their time to understand our needs, at the same time advising and making alternative suggestions, in order to make the itinerary more feasible during the time we had. Whilst other companies provided us with various options, most of their proposals seemed “canned” and were not as flexible in changing the itinerary nor the available accommodations. We wanted a range of activities and a varied choice on accommodations. On both ends, Meektrails DELLIVERED!!They provided us with a wide range of choices in accommodations, from luxurious lodges and tented camps to authentic camps in the reserves. It was a surreal experience having the thrill of camping in the open park at the same time being pampered in luxurious settings.We went on some of the best parks that Kenya and Tanzania had to over – Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. The vehicle used was always clean and great condition. The guides were professional and very knowledgeable not only about the wildlife but also about the culture and history.Aside from the majestic game drives, we were able to go on a boat safari, a walking safari, and a bike safari – all wonderful additions to the adventure! We also had a magical experience visiting an authentic Masai village and got to meet and learn more about their rich and vibrant culture and community. In Tanzania, we visited a local market in Arusha (we were one of only a handful of tourists). Again, it was such a fulfilling experience to meet and learn about the local culture! Our holiday ended with a relaxing 3 days on the beach in Zanzibar!Meektrails worked well with their counterparts in Tanzania and Zanzibar. They were professional, authentic, and genuine - regularly checking in on us to make sure everything was going well. It was comforting to know that we were on their watch during the entire holiday! They showed flexibility and quick action to accommodate us. Two examples come to mind: • Our flight from Zanzibar back to Nairobi was changed by the airline without informing us nor Meektrails (apparently not unusual for this airline). Meektrails went to work immediately (already late evening) and got us on another flight. Since the flight was much earlier than the original, we had 18 hours in Nairobi before our flight back home. For this, they provided us with a room in a fabulous hotel near the airport!! • Our car got stuck on the way to the airport. Within 20 minutes, a replacement car came to pick up and continue the journey. All this at 2:30 in the morning in Zanzibar!We highy recommended Meektrails for your next Safari to Kenya and Tanzania!! They are professional, flexible and accommodating, genuine and authentic!!

Great 10 day safari with Meektrails

We had a fantastic 10 day safari with Meektrails. Amboseli, Ol Pejeta, Samburu, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and finished off in the Masai Mara. The whole process was very organised and slick from start to finish, from the initial contact and booking through the pickup drop off and safari itself. Accommodation was a really high standard and we had a dedicated vehicle and guide just for the two of us. Our guide Joseph was absolutely brilliant, would definitely recommend him. Saw everything we would possibly hope to see, lions, leopards, cheetahs etc. We are both birdwatchers and Joseph was very knowledgeable and happy to tailor the game drives to what we were interested in. It was our first ever safari and we struggled to pick a company, but we are so glad we went with Meektrails, a good competitive price and a great experience.

Fantastic 8 day safari tour with an amazing guide (Peter!)

We had a fantastic experience with Meektrails. Our 7 nights/8 days safari tour was very well organised, and our guide Peter went above and beyond to make sure we saw as many animals as possible and had an exciting adventure in Kenya. We visited Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara and the itinerary was a great mix of game drives and other activities (e.g. cycling, walking, and boat tours). We went for mid-range accommodation, and all lodges were beautiful, clean, and with all amenities for a comfortable stay.From start to finish, Meektrails were incredibly professional, responsive and attentive. Their quote was competitive and they tailored our itinerary to our needs and wishes. William provided all the necessary information and we felt at all times well looked after by him and our guide Peter. Peter's knowledge of the parks and the animals stood out and really made the trip a once in a lifetime experience. We highly recommend Meektrails if you're looking for a professional safari company with a personal touch!

Great experience and a wonderful guide (George)

We had a wonderful experience in Kenya - organized via Meektrails who ensured a well organized trip. A special mention for our amazing safari guide George - he knew the trails inside the safari park very well, he was very knowledgeable about the animals & their typical behaviours. He was courteous, helpful and professional - and patiently answered all our queries! Best wishes to Meektrials & George!

Cheating during booking finalisation

I shouldn’t even give 1 star for such a terrible experience in booking a safari with them.We asked for 6N/7D in June 2025 . I went for negotiating based on their exorbitant rates . Their staff discussed with their boss and quoted 1250 dollars just 2 days before for group of 3 with mara maisha(3N) , avion court hotel (1N) at naivasha and Kibo safari (2N) at amboselli including giraffe Center at nairobi and geo spa.Considering this as a good deal, we planned to book our flights from Germany . But today they say there is a system error and actual price is 2300 dollars pp for group of 3 .If the guy has just checked in system and gave me the price 2 days before, I would have considered their reason.But after discussing with his boss several times, he quoted the price for 1250 dollars and today he changed to 2300$ .I seriously wonder how his boss is able to give acceptance for 1250 dollars 2 days before and now his staff says that was a system error. What kinda company they are running ?Please don’t believe this safari operator since they are not delivering safari operator.They will say they will deliver best experience in safari . But in the end they cheat is like this .The whole Sunday is being spoiled for us because of these guys .

What an experience!!!

I can’t even begin to explain the amazing experience we had with Meektrails! From booking to the end of the safari, everything was taken care of. They were accommodating, responsive and overall such a kind group of people! We had the best private tour with them and our guide was Gideon. Gideon was so patient, kind and knowledgeable! He made sure we got our photography shots!! There is nothing to worry about during our safari adventure because all things were taken care of. We visited Amboseli, Navaisha, Nakuru and Masai Mara in 6 days. We also enjoyed our hot air balloon ride with Balloon Safari. MUST do. We had an amazing breakfast inside Masai Mara. We’re already thinking about going back and we’ll definitely reach out to Meektrails again! Thank guys for the wonderful memories!!

Best experience of our life

One of the most satisfying Safari experiences for my wife and me both senior citizens. MT staff took so good care of us organised special events for my wife's 60th birthday and our anniversary. We not only saw the big 5 but so many more animals and birds with picturesque views of sunrise and sunset with Mt. Kilimanjaro with snow peak in background Food was very good even for vegetarians with MT staff taking great care of you culinary needs and your food allergiesPauline was the standout person answering to all our stupid questions promptly at all odd hours and charting a memorable trip. Wilson our guide cum driver could practically "smell" animals out and gave us a wonderful gaming experience. Entire crew deserves Kudos

Meektravels and Bernard Njinu are excellent partners for your Kenia Safari experience

We met Bernard Njinu after a short night at our hotel outside Nairobi with his 6 seater jeep in wonderful condition. We started our 1300 km road trip with a long drive south to the Ambosseli National Park on the foot of the majestic Kilimanjaro. Bernard has been doing this job for decades. He is a brilliant driver and knows exactly when to speak. He is super resourceful and educated. In Ambosseli he found us brilliant sightings of lions, leopards, cheetahs, endless elephants, wildebeests, zebras and more. From Ambosseli we travelled north west to Lake Navaisha where back in 1985 the then blockbuster movie „Out of Africq“ was filmed. At that time many animals where place on its shores who continue to live there in generations that followed. This allowed us to do a walking tour as well as a boat trip to see hordes of hippos and birdlife. The following morning we did a bike ride into a valley of high served as an inspiration to the Lion King before starting our journey to the Massai Mara Reserve outside the Serengeti. Visiting a Massai village with dance, style of living, fire making and local memorabilia which serves as an income for the village. Thanks to his patience we saw the big cats again in various constellations. We spent 2 nights at the Mara Maisha a beautiful camp which we highly recommend. From there we drove to the Kenia/Tanzania border where Bernard handed us over the his colleague from Serengeti Clarity (see separate report). We recommend Bernard highly, would give him 10 stars if we could!

Great safari, great guide, fantastic value!

My daughter and I just finished an 8 day safari trip with Meektrails to Amboseli Park, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara Park and Lake Nakuru. Esther helped us plan the trip and was very responsive to our questions. Anthony, our driver and guide was great - friendly, professional, so experienced! He knew where to go to spot animals, explained things, and answered questions, stopped for photos. He was an excellent driver and we felt very safe in his hands. The time flew by and was suddenly over!! Our favourite hotel was the Sarova Game Camp in Masai Mara. All the hotels helped us with our gluten free dairy free diet. Absolutely no problem there. Delicious food at all the hotels. I highly recommend Meektrails!

Holiday of a lifetime

Amazing time in Kenya thanks to our fabulous guide Anthony, Eliud's organisation and all the Meektrails team. We visited Amboseli, Lake Naivashe, Lake Nakuru, and Massi Mara, 3 Sopa Lodges and Royal Zebra in Masai and all were great locations, good food and great facilities. Saw different animals/scenery at each place, and the tour was well organised with Tony making each place so interesting with his knowledge and conversation. Even the long journeys were good as he told us about the people, and facts about each area we drove through. Would recommend them completely and hope we will be lucky enough to go back one day. Loved every minute!!

Fantastic Safari experience with Meekstrails and Bernard Nijnu

I have had the good fortune to have travelled to many countries and joined many tours and also enjoyed several safaris.Our tour with Meekstrails safaris was over nine days during which time we must have covered 2,500 KMs , traversing across Kenya and visiting Tsavo West and Amboselli National Parks in the south of the country, up to Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Lake Naivasha in the north and finally, three days in the Masai Mara National Reserve.There were five of us in the truck, all seasoned travellers.We saw all of the big 5, on one day viewing 26 lions in 4 separate sightings, including a post kill of a cape buffalo with the male head of the herd guarding the carcass and the cubs and lionesses sleeping under a nearby bush. We also saw a leopard at night, cheetah walking right past our truck, the protected rhino at Ol Pejeta, herds of hippo, and a sea eagle on a boat trip. We also had a cycle and hike at Hell’s Gate and joined in a fertility dance with the males of a tribe in the Masai Mara, where apparently the higher you can jump determines how many wives once is allowed to have – I could not jump very high and will have to stick with the one I have got.Our trip was made the more memorable through the care and attention to detail of our guide and driver, Bernard Njinu. He showed how incredibly knowledgeable he is of the Kenyan wildlife, birds and trees. He also shared with us interesting facets of the local economy, different tribes and the way of life in Kenya. He joined in the banter whilst he was driving, with the rest of us in the back of the truck. His passion for the wildlife in Kenya and for his job shown through.We were all incredibly grateful that we had Bernard as our guide and he made our trip truly memorable. We could not rate Bernard and Meekstrails highly enough, their service levels are world class and both Bernard and the company go out of their way to ensure that their guests have a great time, whilst ensuring a high level of safety.If you are contemplating a safari holiday in Africa, you would be hard pressed to find a better company than Meekstrails Safaris and a better guide than Bernard Nijnu.

Superb experience with Meektrails Safaris .

It was an amazing experience made even better with Meektrails . They took care of all accommodations as well as the pick up and drop off to the airport making us feel entirely welcome and safe .

Fantastic safari with Meektrails

Just finished a 3 night safari with Meektrails and cannot recommend them enough. Our guide was George who was knowledgable of the people, places and animals we saw and always had a funny story! We spent our first night in Ziwa Bush Lodge which was remote but amazing. The following two nights we stayed at Mtito Safari Camp which was incredible. I have never stayed somewhere that was both in the middle of nowhere and in a tent but with fantastic facilities and impeccable service!During the days, we went to several national parks and reservations as well as a Masai village.Overall, the trip was fantastically organised, excellent day trips and the night time food and accommodation were fantastic and George our guide was the highlight of the trip!

The safari was fantastic - from the communication throughout the booking process through the actual trip. George, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the animals and birds we saw and had so many interesting stories. I learned a lot about Kenya and can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed the trip. It was brilliant. We felt so well taken care of. The accommodation was very comfortable and bit remote - we felt like we were steeped in the nature experience. Loved everything about it. If we ever get a chance to come back or if asked for a recommendation, will definitely book with Meektrails and ask for George !

Best safari ever!

We booked a 5 days safari and we had the best time. Peris was great for help us to plan the perfect trip and was extremely helpful with everything, from adapting the trip to our needs to even book a train ticket on our behalf. Anthony, our driver and guide for the entirety of the trip was amazing. His knowledge and expertise were impressive and we learned so much. I really wanted to see lion cubs and he made sure we’d find them. He almost had a sixth sense of where the animals would be and where they’d go. We’ve seen 4 or the big 5 (no leopards in sight!) and so many other animals. We’ve seen so many baby animals. I 100% recommend them for your safari.

Our trip to Kenya was absolutely wonderful, and we have Meektrails—especially our guide and driver, Onesmus—to thank for it. From the start, everything was smooth and hassle-free. Meektrails was super responsive, making the booking process easy and providing all the info we needed upfront. They planned out a great itinerary that was well-suited to what we were looking for. Onesmus went above and beyond to make our safari unforgettable. He knew exactly where to go so we could see as many animals as possible up close. Thanks to him, we got some incredible sightings and learned so much along the way. We had a remarkable time and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re planning a Kenyan safari, Meektrails is hands down the way to go—I can’t recommend them enough!

Kenya Safari with Meektrails

We traveled to Kenya in February with a group of friends and had an amazing safari experience. Initially, I reached out to Meektrails via Booking Safari, and they proposed a 7-day safari for us. Additionally, since we wanted to relax for a few extra days by the Indian Ocean, they organized a train journey to Mombasa and booked a fantastic hotel by the sea.Peris, the manager, did an excellent job. She listened carefully to all our preferences and created the perfect itinerary for us. She responded promptly and with great kindness throughout the planning process. They also took care of all the transfers to and from the hotels before and after the safari, making the whole experience seamless and stress-free.Josef, our driver and guide, was wonderful. He is a highly professional person who accompanied us throughout the trip and took care of everything. He drove safely, always finding the best spots for photos, and patiently waited for the animals to appear.All my concerns about safety and service during the safari were completely unnecessary, as all the lodges were in fantastic locations with excellent service. The food was also top-notch.

Paul was excellent in planning the trip and also very supportive and providing all the required documentation for our Visa. He has been very patient in resolving all the queries and the doubts we were having prior to the trip. Secondly, Sam our driver and guide for the seven days provided us with some wonderful memories to cherish for life. He too has been very patient and helpful in making the journey and the stay pleasant and comfortable . Overall, I would strongly recommend Meektrails for the Kenyan experience.

And amazing trip of a lifetime!

This was a trip of a lifetime with Meektrails. We saw every possible animal I could imagine and I was also very impressed with the hundreds of birds we saw. I would say this would be a birders Paradise . All of our accommodations were upscale, and the food was fantastic. But by far our best experience was with our guide Joseph. Not only was he a wonderful, kind human being, but I’ve never met anybody so knowledgeable about animals and birds and their behavior. He was always so upbeat and positive and made our trip so much fun.

Excellent Experience

Booking with Meektrails is the way to go. Everything was taken care of and the accommodations were excellent. If you want to experience all the beauty of Kenya, use Meektrails. And if you use Meektrails, ask for George, our wonderful guide for all eight days. We saw Nairobi National Park, Amboseli National Park, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara National Reserve. Each location unique, diverse and absolutely breathtaking. By the end of the trip, we saw the Big 5 and so much more. George was an great advocate for the lands we traveled to, a knowledgable educator on the wild life and a perfect ambassador for all of Kenya. 6 stars. Highly recommended.

We had the absolute BEST safari experience with Meektrails. We visited Nairobi National Park, Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara. George was our tour guide and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. He was welcoming, upbeat, funny and so incredibly knowledgeable about all the animals we encountered. He knew where to find the big cats that hide and always made sure we were able to see them well. We saw the Big Five and so much more. George was patient and kind with our two children (7 and 9) and that made the trip so much less stressful.In terms of planning, Pauline was kind, patient, and responsive. She answered all questions and it was lovely for her to come meet us in person and see us off! I will 100% recommend this company to anyone that wants to come to Kenya for a safari, and also recommend George to be their guide!

Perfect Safari with our awesome guide Philipp from Meek Trails

We had a great time on our Safari. The accomodations chosen by meek trail were really nice. We had always good food and clean rooms. Our guide Philipp made the Safari really special and he managed to present us all of the Big 5. On top, we had a lot of fun on our journey and learnt a lot about Kenya and his wild life. We can recommend Meek Trails and Philipp 100%.

Thank you. We really enjoyed the tour!

My husband and I booked a ten-day private tour which included Amboseli National Park, Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Samburu National Reserve, Lake Navasha, Hell´s Gate National Park and Masai Mara National park. The tour was incredible! Each protected area is unique and we enjoyed the diversity of Kenyan landscapes.We were lucky to have Lukas as our guide/driver who is very friendly and professional. Lukas is well organized but also flexible, there were no misunderstandings or uncomfortable situations at all. It was all perfect. He showed us a lot of wild animals and explained about them. We saw not only the big five, but many different species of antelopes, monkeys and baboons, beautiful birds and many more! We really enjoyed watching animals in their natural habitats. The experiences we made during the tour were beyond our expectation.Unfortunately, our flight back home was cancelled and we were obliged to stay two days longer in Kenya. But our friendly tour coordinator Esther quickly arranged an additional two-day tour for us. On the first day we walked in the canyon in the Hell´s Gate National Park which was geologically very interesting. On the second day we climbed Mt. Longonot. That was quite challenging for us but became an unforgettable experience.Communication with Esther was always smooth. All the lodges we stayed were comfortable and the food was good.We are very happy we booked our safari tour with Meektrails Safari. And we would love to have Lukas as our guide next time as well.

An Unforgettable Safari with MeekTrails – Africa at Its Best!

My wife and I adored our 10-day safari with MeekTrails across **Amboseli**, **Lake Nakuru**, and **Maasai Mara**. Each park dazzled us: Amboseli’s elephants roaming under Kilimanjaro, Nakuru’s flamingo-filled lakeshores, and Mara’s endless lion sightings—including a pride with cubs!**Esther**, our planner, deserves applause. She tailored every detail, answered queries instantly, and even upgraded our Mara lodge! Her dedication made us feel like VIPs.Driver **John** was a gem—punctual, witty, and eagle-eyed. He tracked lions effortlessly and explained animal behaviors with infectious enthusiasm. Long drives flew by thanks to his stories and sharp spotting skills!

It was most memorable trip for us, very well organized by Esther where she made sure everything was included in the trip. Our guide Mr.James was so nice from time he picked us till he dropped us to airport, we had a great time in Safari where we could spot most of the wild life very closely. The stay was amazing with very good resorts/food which was done by them, Definitely I am referring Meektrails #Esther#Mr James to all my friends.Thank you guys for making it so special for us remembering life time.

Unforgettable

Our safari package was absolutely unforgettable! We saw many animals and our guide Sammy Wild was exceptional, knowledgeable, friendly, and great at spotting wildlife. Our hotels were all beautiful and comfortable, with excellent food and stunning views. The highlight was the hot air balloon ride at sunrise, offering breathtaking views of the savannahs and wildlife below. The entire experience was well-organized, and I appreciated the emphasis on conservation efforts. I highly recommend this safari for anyone looking for an authentic and thrilling wildlife adventure! But our guid was was the true highlight,an amazing human being. Our guide Sammy Wild is the best.

Amazing experience with a reliable and friendly tour operator

We had a wonderful and seamless safari experience with Meektrails. From the start William was so accommodating to all our requests the communication on his end was always very clear and he even organised a surprise cake for us on our anniversary at one of the hotels we stayed in. I would say the tour was a bit too pricey per person but Meektrails was quite reliable and their service was spot on, Our guide was Marcy a female guide in Kenya which is quite rare, she was superwoman! Her knowledge and love for animals was quite visible and her tenacity to show us the big 5 + other animals and her love and passion for the job was amazing. She really took care of us on our whole tour and was very patient with us. Kudos and thank you to both William and Marcy. We will definitely be booking our next safari trip with Meektrails again.

Outstanding 6-day safari in Kenya with Meektrails

We had a fantastic 6-day safari in Kenya with Meektrails. The entire experience was incredible! Before the trip, our tour consultant William was always ready to answer our multiple questions and doubts. For the Safari, we had the company of the best possible driver/guide ever, Antony Macharia! With the eyesight of an eagle, he could spot wild animals miles away and take us as close to the action as possible (and safe). We had the trip of a lifetime and we will never forget it. We strongly recommend Meetrails not only for their professionalism but also for the fantastic people that work there! Thank you William, thank you Antony, thank you all!

Top level experience. The best safari company there is.

A top level experience! When we first decided we wanted to go to Kenya, we had limited information and knowledge about Safari's. We therefore contacted multiple companies requesting quotes and itineraries. The one company that stood out above the rest were Meektrails. Our tour consulant (Peris) gave us timely and affordable quotes, straight to the point. Many other companies tried to negotiate a much higher price for the same itinerary and same hotels. Also, Peris was able to customise our safari schedule the way we wanted. We changed our schedule multiple times, and it was never an issue for meektrail.During the safari, we definitely had the most amazing safari expert, James. He had an incredible amount of knowledge, we was able to guide us to the best spots of the parks. He made the experience, more than just seeing animals. He was able to explain each detail of the animals behaviour patterns, diets, age, hunting methods. I can definitely see him being on National Geography channel in the future. The experience wouldnt have been the same if it were not for James.Finally, all the safari hotels that Meektrails had us stay were perfect, great quality and exceptional service. Will definitely be booking meektrail in the future, and reccomending meektrail to family and friends.

When some time passed and all our feelings calmed down, it is time to say a lot of beautiful words about the meektrails company. First of all thank you Peris for making our honeymoon absolutely amazing. Smooth communication like with friend, everything was organised perfectly and we were informed about all the details. Two hotels were upgraded and left unforgetable memories. Second, our amazing guide Brother Sam. He is a very good driver, we felt safe with him. He knows a lot about animals and life in Kenya.

the guide made our trip

George was our guide. He maintained a professional approach and relationship with us yet he felt like my brother when we were done. He was always clear about his expetations ( meeting times and places etc). He checked frequently with us to make sure we were getting the experience we wanted. And he delivered. We asked a million questions about animals,plants, and culture. George is a fountain of information and was never stumped. I will cherish the memories of my time with George.

We have a wonderful private safari tour from Masai Mara to Nakuru Naivasha, and then Amboseli. Its proper arranged, comfortable and worthy to its price. Our guide Philip is very professional and full of humor. He is good at wild animal knowledge and also very good at searching animals in parks, he always trying to drive us to the best photo point. And we may have long road trip sometime, but it will never be dull with Philip. Our booking consultant William is also very professional and helpful. He is always keen to reply every questions and be reliable enough on planning the trip and do every bookings. The meektrialssafari offers a reasonable price with high quality.

Childhood dream

Our safari with Meektrails exceeded all the expectations. It was the most magical experience, a real childhood dream comes true type of adventure. The people behind Meektrails are beyond amazing, helpful and friendly, Charles was incredibly attentive, he helped with everything and answered every questions i had. Our driver Francis is the sweetest person, he went above and beyond to make sure we see every animal. His knowledge about the animals is amazing, he knows everything, from the name of smallest bird to things like what an elephant will do next, just from a look at it. We felt safe with him on the muddy roads of the national parks and the chaotic roads between the parks as well. He’s working as a safari tour guide for 18 years and he gives you all his experience to make your trip the best it can be. The lodges, that the company booked for us, were fantastic too. Clean rooms, friendly people, nice food, and there’s nothing like hearing a hyena in the middle of the night or drinking a nice cocktail and looking at the zebras basically in the garden. I can’t recommend Meektrails enough!

Incredible Safari Experience!!!

My wife and I booked a five day tour that included Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru & Masai Mara. The entire process from the beginning was seamless. Meektrails helped plan a customised tour with lots of flexibility on the accomodation and itinerary to suit our preferences. Peris was extremely knowledgeable, responsive and authentically caring about making our experience amazing! Our pickup in Nairobi was also made easy with a number of the Meektrails team welcoming us.Ben was our guide/driver and he was absolutely incredible throughout the safari! He communicated different options/timing of activities plus was always early and very prepared. His knowledge and insights on all the animals was excellent. It also felt like he constantly knew the best place to spot all the animals on game drives with us often seeing them first, before he let other guides know, resulting in us getting up very close to them. We simply loved spending time with him learning more about Kenya and his personal experiences.The 4x4 was super spacious and comfortable with all the amenities (chargers, binoculars, fridge). All our accomodations were also great with well equipped rooms, delicious food and unique experiences staying so close to the animals.A massive thank you to Ben, Peris and the Meektrails team for a once in a lifetime experience! We can’t recommend them enough.

Spectacular

My husband and I just did the six day Sopa loop Safari. We were picked up at our hotel in Nairobi and taken to Amboseli then to Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara. All three parks were uniquely beautiful and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We stayed 5 nights at three different Sopa lodges and we were very happy with all three lodges and the wonderful service we had there. If we could change one thing we would have liked an extra day on Lake Nakuru. We had one guide named Lucas who was with us every step of the way. Lucas made this experience so nice for us. He made sure he was there every morning at the lodge to pick us up on time. Lucas was very knowledgeable and patient. He went out of his way to make sure we got to see everything and get the perfect picture. He really wanted to make sure we were having the best experience and we were so appreciative. of that. We would love to come back again and bring the rest of the family. Just to be aware we did find out after if you are booking with a credit card it’s a 3.5 % service fee.

Solo Safari with the fastest guide in Kenya

Meektrail organized a wonderful 8 days Safari with me, were very good to adapting and changing the itinerary, til it was the perfect tour, including some of the best parks in Kenya and Tanzania. Wonderful choice of camps and lodges, 9 seater new Land Cruiser, just for me. My guide Antony was not only extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, but also a superb driver, what allowed us to do some stuff, that would not have been possible with a group safari :). I highly recommend them - all staff very friendly, always checking in with me, to secure that I got the most out of it.

Brilliant safari with Julian and great help from Valentine

We had an amazing safari in Masai Mara. Our tour guide, Julius, was great. He was very knowledgable and knew how to find all the animals. We managed to see 9 cheetahs (including one with kill) and too many lions, elephants, etc to count.Valentine at Meektrails was very helpful and quick to reply to any question via email or WhatsApp.You can pay by card through payment link or in person when you arrive. Just be sure to get newly minted USD if using as we had ones that were brand new but minted minted in 2006 and they are useless in Kenya. Easy to pay by card in the end even with 3.5% surcharge.

We had an incredible 10 day safari with George who made our experience unforgettable. We visited Maasai Mara, Naivasha, Samburu, Amboseli, Ol Pajeta and Tsavo East. We saw so many amazing animals and George was very knowledgeable, always sharing information about different species and their habitats.

Unforgettable experience with guide Sammy

Incredible 5-day adventure with an extremely experienced, attentive, and professional guide, Sammy, who has 25+ years of experience.We highly appreciated how communicative and efficient MeekTrails was in the booking experience, and especially appreciated how they tailored the trip to our needs, as we added a trip to the elephant orphanage in Nairobi and a hot air balloon ride in the Maasai Mara.Sammy was the best. Experiences, safe guide who took us to all the best viewpoints in the Maasai Mara, and we got incredibly lucky to see 44 lions and 6 cheetahs and countless other animals during the 3 days we spent in the Mara. The other days we went to Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha, which were also amazing experiences.Sammy had so much knowledge about all the animals that we loved hearing. We were so impressed at his ability to spot rare animals from what seemed like miles away. And he kept us safe by spotting a lion during a lunch picnic in the bush and getting us and a nearby picnic group back into our vehicles :)Thank you MeekTrails for also upgrading us to the Lalashe hotel in the Maasai Mara, which was an absolutely luxurious experience that we won’t forget.Thank you!

No refund in sight

Be extremely cautious when booking. Charles was great to deal with and we were very excited for our trip and itinerary. Unfortunately on December 6, 2024 we needed to cancel our trip for January 2025. The contract specifically says “100% refund guarantee if you are unable to make it”.It’s been 5 weeks now of daily/weekly follow up and I have not received a refund. I was told the refund would take 3-7 business days. Ive been told the refund has been processed 4 different times but no money has been returned to me.When I left a google review of my experience (after waiting for a month), I am being harassed daily to take it down. I did inform Daniel that I would be happy to update my review once I see my refund.In lieu of my refund, instead, I am now receiving unprofessional, disrespectful messages from the owner Daniel because I am following up on my refund.Buyer beware.

Incredible wildlife and birding experience

My family and I visited Kenya for 9 days over the holiday period. Our itinerary included a day in Nairobi, and then the national parks of Amboseli, Naivasha, Elementaita, Nakuru and Masai Mara. Since making initial contact with Meektrails, the process could not have been smoother. Charles built us an itinerary based on our preferences, and quoted for various options of accommodation and vehicle class. He was easy to contact over email and WhatsApp (where the majority of our communication took place) and happily amended the itinerary, dates and number of people multiple times until it suited us perfectly. He made enquiries of specific dietary/mobility requirements and passed this information on to the lodges. At various intervals before the trip, Charles sent reminders of requirements, eg, visa application, vaccinations.On arrival, we were greeted by the Meektrails team and introduced to our driver-guide Bernard Njinu. With 25 years experience, he demonstrated vast in-depth knowledge of animal and bird habits- and helped us spot and identify 112 species of birds and 34 species of mammals (including the big 5) and reptiles. We were in particular impressed with his bird knowledge - he was able to spot and identify various species from a distance, from imposing storks and endangered vultures to skulking pipits and longclaws and plovers. Seeing the whydahs and widow birds were a particular highlight. Even experienced twitchers won't be disappointed.Njinu (pronounced without the N) was forthcoming with knowledge about all aspects of the area- geological, historical and cultural. He was extremely professional, friendly, approachable and took great care of us- he brought along a two-step stool to aid my mum with weak knees climb in and out of the vehicle; and planned in frequent comfort breaks for my dad who has diabetes. Njinu was very patient through the game drives and was invested in making sure we got the most out of our time in Kenya.The trip itself was exactly as planned, with no corners cut, no hidden costs (note that tips are standard practice and not included in your quote- I recommended you account for this in advance). The vehicle was comfortable and very fit for purpose. All accommodation including hotels, tented camps and lodges was exactly as advertised/ expected at great locations in or very close to the national parks. Food was good, rooms comfortable, but the hospitality and service were what took our stay to the next level.Now back from holiday, my family agree that this was hands-down one of the best holidays/experiences of our lives. The country of Kenya with its incredible wildlife, landscapes, culture and people has touched our hearts - and Meektrails made it all accessible in the most painless and enjoyable way possible. If you are considering a trip to Kenya or east Africa, I highly recommend Meektrails Safaris for your adventure.

Noushad

Our family of four, including two kids had an incredible 5-day safari in Kenya, thanks to the fantastic team at MEEKTRAILS SAFARIS. Right from the start, the communication with Valentine Ngatha was seamless. She was extremely helpful and responsive, ensuring all our queries were addressed and our itinerary was perfectly planned.The accommodations were top-notch, offering a great balance of comfort and a close-to-nature feel. The food was delicious, with plenty of options that suited both adults and kids in our Indian family.However, at one of our stays in Masai Mara, the generator was turned off between 1 am and 4 am, which was a minor inconvenience.Our guide, Mr. Onesmus, was the star of the trip. His exceptional wildlife knowledge, patience with our kids, and ability to spot animals made every game drive unforgettable. We saw the Big Five and so much more, making the experience truly special.The entire trip was well-organized, stress-free, and filled with lifelong memories.

Great Safari with Meektrails

We recently completed a 7 night safari with Meektrails and had a great experience. Our tour was originally organized by Charles who was very responsive and able to customize our itinerary to our wishes and budget. We spent time in Maasai mara, Nakuru, Amboseli, and Tsavo and enjoyed all of them. The land cruiser was in excellent condition, with a pop-up roof, huge roll down windows, comfortable seats, and working power plugs.Our amazing guide was Anthony who really elevated the experience and allowed us to have an incredible Safari. From the start Anthony was so friendly and open, and made it clear his aim was to make our experience as great as possible. He was absolutely amazing at finding animals and getting us as close as possible to all different animals. We saw everything we had expected and more including cubs and young of nearly every species. He knows all the roads, routes, and small trails which allowed us to get very up close experiences. He also seems to know everyone, from other guides to park rangers which helped us learn about and find the location of animals. He was even also able to organize an early entrance to a couple of the parks to allow us to see sunrise in the park with the animals.Throughout the trip Anthony always double checked the planned schedule with us and offered many suggestions for changes or additions to the plan which really improved the trip. It's clear he has a lot of experience, and local knowledge which allowed him to adjust the itinerary in the best way possible. It's also clear he cares greatly for the local communities and organized for us to give our unused lunch packs to local children rather than seeing the food go to waste.We greatly appreciated our time with Anthony and thanks to him the safari exceeded all our expectations. As for Meektrails the booking process was responsive and easy, and everything was organized as discussed with no hitches. We would certainly organize another safari with Meektrails if returning to Kenya.

Our 7-day safari with Meektrails Safaris in Kenya with our guide Anthony was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, the experience exceeded all expectations. Our guide Anthony was phenomenal—he was knowledgeable, patient, and went above and beyond to ensure we saw everything on our wildlife wishlist. Thanks to his incredible skill and dedication, we had close encounters with the Big Five, witnessed breathtaking landscapes, and even saw species we hadn’t expected. His passion for wildlife and his deep understanding of the ecosystem made every game drive an adventure filled with learning and excitement. The accommodations and planning by Meektrails were seamless, making the whole journey stress-free and comfortable. Whether it was sunrise safari or tracking animals, every moment was magical. If you’re looking for a safari company that delivers an exceptional experience with a personal touch, Meektrails Safaris is the one. Highly recommended!

An amazing 6 day safari

We had a really great experience! We went on a 6 day safari. Our guide was Phillip, we went to Masai Mara and we spotted the big five. Phillip was a really good and enthusiastic guide. I would really recommend it.

Unforgettable first safari

We chose MeekTrails for our first family Safari in Kenya and it was a great choice. We built with them a program that perfectly fitted to our group (with people of different ages 11-60). Our five day safari brought us to Amboseli, Nakuru Lake and Masai Mara Nationals Parks and our fantastic guide Njinu made us see a lot of wild wonderful animals, included the big five! He could always find the best spots that made our experience unforgettable. The Sopa Lodges we chose were clean and comfortable, with a lot of services and pools.We strongly recommend MeekTrails if you’re thinking about going to Kenya to make a safari to discover african wikdlife! 🐆🐅🐘🦒🦏🐃

A week we never will forget

First of all: a big Thank You to the whole team of Meek Trails. From the first contact with Diana until the last drop off at the hotel in Nairobi everything was perfect. Especially Philip: he was calm during driving, told us everything we should know about Africa, the animals, the plants and how to behave in Kenia. Everyday we felt that he was not only doing his job very well, but he was really loving the nature, the big animals and the small ones, specially the moorhens. He was patient, waited with us for the best moments, so we were very lucky to see all the animals we had hoped to see and were able to shoot beautiful photos. We saw the Big 5, the Ugliest 5 and many others and many birds. The days with Philip were full of seeing things and many laughters. The chosen hotels were all beautiful, the meals very good. At last: Thank you Meek Trails for that beautiful and unforgettable surprise at my birthday, when the whole team of the Zebra Camp and a Masai-Group were singing and dancing for me. Diana and Philip: Asante sani - we will miss you!

A Perfectly Organized Trip – Highly Recommend!

I recently traveled with Meektrail Safari, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the very beginning, Valentine was incredibly helpful in planning and organizing every detail of our trip. She was always swift to answer our questions and ensured that everything was very well arranged.During our journey, we were accompanied by Ben, who was knowledgeable, professional, experienced, and friendly. He not only knew where the animals were, but also could put us in the best position to see them. His stories about the animals and the Kenya culture made the experience even more enjoyable. He went beyond to make sure we had a memorable trip.From the accommodations to the activities, all exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend Meektrail Safari to anyone looking for a well-organized and unforgettable safari experience.Thank you again to Meektrail and Ben for making this trip so unique. I will definitely be booking with you again in the future!

A Majestic Safari!!

Planning a two-week safari is a aunting task especially when you want to experience and “see” as much as you can. We needed someone who have the resources and the patience to manage our needs. Meektrails stood out right away as they took their time to understand our needs, at the same time advising and making alternative suggestions, in order to make the itinerary more feasible during the time we had. Whilst other companies provided us with various options, most of their proposals seemed “canned” and were not as flexible in changing the itinerary nor the available accommodations. We wanted a range of activities and a varied choice on accommodations. On both ends, Meektrails DELLIVERED!!They provided us with a wide range of choices in accommodations, from luxurious lodges and tented camps to authentic camps in the reserves. It was a surreal experience having the thrill of camping in the open park at the same time being pampered in luxurious settings.We went on some of the best parks that Kenya and Tanzania had to over – Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. The vehicle used was always clean and great condition. The guides were professional and very knowledgeable not only about the wildlife but also about the culture and history.Aside from the majestic game drives, we were able to go on a boat safari, a walking safari, and a bike safari – all wonderful additions to the adventure! We also had a magical experience visiting an authentic Masai village and got to meet and learn more about their rich and vibrant culture and community. In Tanzania, we visited a local market in Arusha (we were one of only a handful of tourists). Again, it was such a fulfilling experience to meet and learn about the local culture! Our holiday ended with a relaxing 3 days on the beach in Zanzibar!Meektrails worked well with their counterparts in Tanzania and Zanzibar. They were professional, authentic, and genuine - regularly checking in on us to make sure everything was going well. It was comforting to know that we were on their watch during the entire holiday! They showed flexibility and quick action to accommodate us. Two examples come to mind: • Our flight from Zanzibar back to Nairobi was changed by the airline without informing us nor Meektrails (apparently not unusual for this airline). Meektrails went to work immediately (already late evening) and got us on another flight. Since the flight was much earlier than the original, we had 18 hours in Nairobi before our flight back home. For this, they provided us with a room in a fabulous hotel near the airport!! • Our car got stuck on the way to the airport. Within 20 minutes, a replacement car came to pick up and continue the journey. All this at 2:30 in the morning in Zanzibar!We highy recommended Meektrails for your next Safari to Kenya and Tanzania!! They are professional, flexible and accommodating, genuine and authentic!!

Great 10 day safari with Meektrails

We had a fantastic 10 day safari with Meektrails. Amboseli, Ol Pejeta, Samburu, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and finished off in the Masai Mara. The whole process was very organised and slick from start to finish, from the initial contact and booking through the pickup drop off and safari itself. Accommodation was a really high standard and we had a dedicated vehicle and guide just for the two of us. Our guide Joseph was absolutely brilliant, would definitely recommend him. Saw everything we would possibly hope to see, lions, leopards, cheetahs etc. We are both birdwatchers and Joseph was very knowledgeable and happy to tailor the game drives to what we were interested in. It was our first ever safari and we struggled to pick a company, but we are so glad we went with Meektrails, a good competitive price and a great experience.

Fantastic 8 day safari tour with an amazing guide (Peter!)

We had a fantastic experience with Meektrails. Our 7 nights/8 days safari tour was very well organised, and our guide Peter went above and beyond to make sure we saw as many animals as possible and had an exciting adventure in Kenya. We visited Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara and the itinerary was a great mix of game drives and other activities (e.g. cycling, walking, and boat tours). We went for mid-range accommodation, and all lodges were beautiful, clean, and with all amenities for a comfortable stay.From start to finish, Meektrails were incredibly professional, responsive and attentive. Their quote was competitive and they tailored our itinerary to our needs and wishes. William provided all the necessary information and we felt at all times well looked after by him and our guide Peter. Peter's knowledge of the parks and the animals stood out and really made the trip a once in a lifetime experience. We highly recommend Meektrails if you're looking for a professional safari company with a personal touch!

We had a wonderful experience in Kenya - organized via Meektrails who ensured a well organized trip. A special mention for our amazing safari guide George - he knew the trails inside the safari park very well, he was very knowledgeable about the animals & their typical behaviours.

Cheating during booking finalisation

I shouldn’t even give 1 star for such a terrible experience in booking a safari with them.We asked for 6N/7D in June 2025 . I went for negotiating based on their exorbitant rates . Their staff discussed with their boss and quoted 1250 dollars just 2 days before for group of 3 with mara maisha(3N) , avion court hotel (1N) at naivasha and Kibo safari (2N) at amboselli including giraffe Center at nairobi and geo spa.Considering this as a good deal, we planned to book our flights from Germany . But today they say there is a system error and actual price is 2300 dollars pp for group of 3 .If the guy has just checked in system and gave me the price 2 days before, I would have considered their reason.But after discussing with his boss several times, he quoted the price for 1250 dollars and today he changed to 2300$ .I seriously wonder how his boss is able to give acceptance for 1250 dollars 2 days before and now his staff says that was a system error. What kinda company they are running ?Please don’t believe this safari operator since they are not delivering safari operator.They will say they will deliver best experience in safari . But in the end they cheat is like this .The whole Sunday is being spoiled for us because of these guys .

I can’t even begin to explain the amazing experience we had with Meektrails! From booking to the end of the safari, everything was taken care of. They were accommodating, responsive and overall such a kind group of people! We had the best private tour with them and our guide was Gideon. Gideon was so patient, kind and knowledgeable! He made sure we got our photography shots!! There is nothing to worry about during our safari adventure because all things were taken care of. We visited Amboseli, Navaisha, Nakuru and Masai Mara in 6 days. We also enjoyed our hot air balloon ride with Balloon Safari. MUST do. We had an amazing breakfast inside Masai Mara. We’re already thinking about going back and we’ll definitely reach out to Meektrails again! Thank guys for the wonderful memories!!

Best experience of our life

One of the most satisfying Safari experiences for my wife and me both senior citizens. MT staff took so good care of us organised special events for my wife's 60th birthday and our anniversary. We not only saw the big 5 but so many more animals and birds with picturesque views of sunrise and sunset with Mt. Kilimanjaro with snow peak in background Food was very good even for vegetarians with MT staff taking great care of you culinary needs and your food allergiesPauline was the standout person answering to all our stupid questions promptly at all odd hours and charting a memorable trip. Wilson our guide cum driver could practically "smell" animals out and gave us a wonderful gaming experience. Entire crew deserves Kudos

Meektravels and Bernard Njinu are excellent partners for your Kenia Safari experience

We met Bernard Njinu after a short night at our hotel outside Nairobi with his 6 seater jeep in wonderful condition. We started our 1300 km road trip with a long drive south to the Ambosseli National Park on the foot of the majestic Kilimanjaro. Bernard has been doing this job for decades. He is a brilliant driver and knows exactly when to speak. He is super resourceful and educated. In Ambosseli he found us brilliant sightings of lions, leopards, cheetahs, endless elephants, wildebeests, zebras and more. From Ambosseli we travelled north west to Lake Navaisha where back in 1985 the then blockbuster movie „Out of Africq“ was filmed. At that time many animals where place on its shores who continue to live there in generations that followed. This allowed us to do a walking tour as well as a boat trip to see hordes of hippos and birdlife. The following morning we did a bike ride into a valley of high served as an inspiration to the Lion King before starting our journey to the Massai Mara Reserve outside the Serengeti. Visiting a Massai village with dance, style of living, fire making and local memorabilia which serves as an income for the village. Thanks to his patience we saw the big cats again in various constellations. We spent 2 nights at the Mara Maisha a beautiful camp which we highly recommend. From there we drove to the Kenia/Tanzania border where Bernard handed us over the his colleague from Serengeti Clarity (see separate report). We recommend Bernard highly, would give him 10 stars if we could!

Great safari, great guide, fantastic value!

My daughter and I just finished an 8 day safari trip with Meektrails to Amboseli Park, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara Park and Lake Nakuru. Esther helped us plan the trip and was very responsive to our questions. Anthony, our driver and guide was great - friendly, professional, so experienced! He knew where to go to spot animals, explained things, and answered questions, stopped for photos. He was an excellent driver and we felt very safe in his hands. The time flew by and was suddenly over!! Our favourite hotel was the Sarova Game Camp in Masai Mara. All the hotels helped us with our gluten free dairy free diet. Absolutely no problem there. Delicious food at all the hotels. I highly recommend Meektrails!

Holiday of a lifetime

Amazing time in Kenya thanks to our fabulous guide Anthony, Eliud's organisation and all the Meektrails team. We visited Amboseli, Lake Naivashe, Lake Nakuru, and Massi Mara, 3 Sopa Lodges and Royal Zebra in Masai and all were great locations, good food and great facilities. Saw different animals/scenery at each place, and the tour was well organised with Tony making each place so interesting with his knowledge and conversation. Even the long journeys were good as he told us about the people, and facts about each area we drove through. Would recommend them completely and hope we will be lucky enough to go back one day. Loved every minute!!

Fantastic Safari experience with Meekstrails and Bernard Nijnu

I have had the good fortune to have travelled to many countries and joined many tours and also enjoyed several safaris.Our tour with Meekstrails safaris was over nine days during which time we must have covered 2,500 KMs , traversing across Kenya and visiting Tsavo West and Amboselli National Parks in the south of the country, up to Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Lake Naivasha in the north and finally, three days in the Masai Mara National Reserve.There were five of us in the truck, all seasoned travellers.We saw all of the big 5, on one day viewing 26 lions in 4 separate sightings, including a post kill of a cape buffalo with the male head of the herd guarding the carcass and the cubs and lionesses sleeping under a nearby bush. We also saw a leopard at night, cheetah walking right past our truck, the protected rhino at Ol Pejeta, herds of hippo, and a sea eagle on a boat trip. We also had a cycle and hike at Hell’s Gate and joined in a fertility dance with the males of a tribe in the Masai Mara, where apparently the higher you can jump determines how many wives once is allowed to have – I could not jump very high and will have to stick with the one I have got.Our trip was made the more memorable through the care and attention to detail of our guide and driver, Bernard Njinu. He showed how incredibly knowledgeable he is of the Kenyan wildlife, birds and trees. He also shared with us interesting facets of the local economy, different tribes and the way of life in Kenya. He joined in the banter whilst he was driving, with the rest of us in the back of the truck. His passion for the wildlife in Kenya and for his job shown through.We were all incredibly grateful that we had Bernard as our guide and he made our trip truly memorable. We could not rate Bernard and Meekstrails highly enough, their service levels are world class and both Bernard and the company go out of their way to ensure that their guests have a great time, whilst ensuring a high level of safety.If you are contemplating a safari holiday in Africa, you would be hard pressed to find a better company than Meekstrails Safaris and a better guide than Bernard Nijnu.

Fantastic safari with Meektrails

Just finished a 3 night safari with Meektrails and cannot recommend them enough. Our guide was George who was knowledgable of the people, places and animals we saw and always had a funny story! We spent our first night in Ziwa Bush Lodge which was remote but amazing. The following two nights we stayed at Mtito Safari Camp which was incredible. I have never stayed somewhere that was both in the middle of nowhere and in a tent but with fantastic facilities and impeccable service!During the days, we went to several national parks and reservations as well as a Masai village.Overall, the trip was fantastically organised, excellent day trips and the night time food and accommodation were fantastic and George our guide was the highlight of the trip!

Fantastic safari experience !

The safari was fantastic - from the communication throughout the booking process through the actual trip. George, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the animals and birds we saw and had so many interesting stories. I learned a lot about Kenya and can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed the trip. It was brilliant. We felt so well taken care of. The accommodation was very comfortable and bit remote - we felt like we were steeped in the nature experience. Loved everything about it. If we ever get a chance to come back or if asked for a recommendation, will definitely book with Meektrails and ask for George !

Best safari ever!

We booked a 5 days safari and we had the best time. Peris was great for help us to plan the perfect trip and was extremely helpful with everything, from adapting the trip to our needs to even book a train ticket on our behalf. Anthony, our driver and guide for the entirety of the trip was amazing. His knowledge and expertise were impressive and we learned so much. I really wanted to see lion cubs and he made sure we’d find them. He almost had a sixth sense of where the animals would be and where they’d go. We’ve seen 4 or the big 5 (no leopards in sight!) and so many other animals. We’ve seen so many baby animals. I 100% recommend them for your safari.

Our trip to Kenya was absolutely wonderful, and we have Meektrails—especially our guide and driver, Onesmus—to thank for it. From the start, everything was smooth and hassle-free. Meektrails was super responsive, making the booking process easy and providing all the info we needed upfront. They planned out a great itinerary that was well-suited to what we were looking for. Onesmus went above and beyond to make our safari unforgettable. He knew exactly where to go so we could see as many animals as possible up close. Thanks to him, we got some incredible sightings and learned so much along the way. We had a remarkable time and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re planning a Kenyan safari, Meektrails is hands down the way to go—I can’t recommend them enough!

Kenya Safari with Meektrails

We traveled to Kenya in February with a group of friends and had an amazing safari experience. Initially, I reached out to Meektrails via Booking Safari, and they proposed a 7-day safari for us. Additionally, since we wanted to relax for a few extra days by the Indian Ocean, they organized a train journey to Mombasa and booked a fantastic hotel by the sea.Peris, the manager, did an excellent job. She listened carefully to all our preferences and created the perfect itinerary for us. She responded promptly and with great kindness throughout the planning process. They also took care of all the transfers to and from the hotels before and after the safari, making the whole experience seamless and stress-free.Josef, our driver and guide, was wonderful. He is a highly professional person who accompanied us throughout the trip and took care of everything. He drove safely, always finding the best spots for photos, and patiently waited for the animals to appear.All my concerns about safety and service during the safari were completely unnecessary, as all the lodges were in fantastic locations with excellent service. The food was also top-notch.

Excellent and accommodating

Paul was excellent in planning the trip and also very supportive and providing all the required documentation for our Visa. He has been very patient in resolving all the queries and the doubts we were having prior to the trip. Secondly, Sam our driver and guide for the seven days provided us with some wonderful memories to cherish for life. He too has been very patient and helpful in making the journey and the stay pleasant and comfortable . Overall, I would strongly recommend Meektrails for the Kenyan experience.

And amazing trip of a lifetime!

This was a trip of a lifetime with Meektrails. We saw every possible animal I could imagine and I was also very impressed with the hundreds of birds we saw. I would say this would be a birders Paradise . All of our accommodations were upscale, and the food was fantastic. But by far our best experience was with our guide Joseph. Not only was he a wonderful, kind human being, but I’ve never met anybody so knowledgeable about animals and birds and their behavior. He was always so upbeat and positive and made our trip so much fun.

Excellent Experience

Booking with Meektrails is the way to go. Everything was taken care of and the accommodations were excellent. If you want to experience all the beauty of Kenya, use Meektrails. And if you use Meektrails, ask for George, our wonderful guide for all eight days. We saw Nairobi National Park, Amboseli National Park, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara National Reserve. Each location unique, diverse and absolutely breathtaking. By the end of the trip, we saw the Big 5 and so much more. George was an great advocate for the lands we traveled to, a knowledgable educator on the wild life and a perfect ambassador for all of Kenya. 6 stars. Highly recommended.

The BEST

We had the absolute BEST safari experience with Meektrails. We visited Nairobi National Park, Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara. George was our tour guide and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. He was welcoming, upbeat, funny and so incredibly knowledgeable about all the animals we encountered. He knew where to find the big cats that hide and always made sure we were able to see them well. We saw the Big Five and so much more. George was patient and kind with our two children (7 and 9) and that made the trip so much less stressful.In terms of planning, Pauline was kind, patient, and responsive. She answered all questions and it was lovely for her to come meet us in person and see us off! I will 100% recommend this company to anyone that wants to come to Kenya for a safari, and also recommend George to be their guide!

Perfect Safari with our awesome guide Philipp from Meek Trails

We had a great time on our Safari. The accomodations chosen by meek trail were really nice. We had always good food and clean rooms. Our guide Philipp made the Safari really special and he managed to present us all of the Big 5. On top, we had a lot of fun on our journey and learnt a lot about Kenya and his wild life. We can recommend Meek Trails and Philipp 100%.

Thank you. We really enjoyed the tour!

My husband and I booked a ten-day private tour which included Amboseli National Park, Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Samburu National Reserve, Lake Navasha, Hell´s Gate National Park and Masai Mara National park. The tour was incredible! Each protected area is unique and we enjoyed the diversity of Kenyan landscapes.We were lucky to have Lukas as our guide/driver who is very friendly and professional. Lukas is well organized but also flexible, there were no misunderstandings or uncomfortable situations at all. It was all perfect. He showed us a lot of wild animals and explained about them. We saw not only the big five, but many different species of antelopes, monkeys and baboons, beautiful birds and many more! We really enjoyed watching animals in their natural habitats. The experiences we made during the tour were beyond our expectation.Unfortunately, our flight back home was cancelled and we were obliged to stay two days longer in Kenya. But our friendly tour coordinator Esther quickly arranged an additional two-day tour for us. On the first day we walked in the canyon in the Hell´s Gate National Park which was geologically very interesting. On the second day we climbed Mt. Longonot. That was quite challenging for us but became an unforgettable experience.Communication with Esther was always smooth. All the lodges we stayed were comfortable and the food was good.We are very happy we booked our safari tour with Meektrails Safari. And we would love to have Lukas as our guide next time as well.

An Unforgettable Safari with MeekTrails – Africa at Its Best!

My wife and I adored our 10-day safari with MeekTrails across **Amboseli**, **Lake Nakuru**, and **Maasai Mara**. Each park dazzled us: Amboseli’s elephants roaming under Kilimanjaro, Nakuru’s flamingo-filled lakeshores, and Mara’s endless lion sightings—including a pride with cubs!**Esther**, our planner, deserves applause. She tailored every detail, answered queries instantly, and even upgraded our Mara lodge! Her dedication made us feel like VIPs.Driver **John** was a gem—punctual, witty, and eagle-eyed. He tracked lions effortlessly and explained animal behaviors with infectious enthusiasm. Long drives flew by thanks to his stories and sharp spotting skills!

It was most memorable trip for us, very well organized by Esther where she made sure everything was included in the trip. Our guide Mr.James was so nice from time he picked us till he dropped us to airport, we had a great time in Safari where we could spot most of the wild life very closely.

Our safari package was absolutely unforgettable! We saw many animals and our guide Sammy Wild was exceptional, knowledgeable, friendly, and great at spotting wildlife. Our hotels were all beautiful and comfortable, with excellent food and stunning views. The highlight was the hot air balloon ride at sunrise, offering breathtaking views of the savannahs and wildlife below. The entire experience was well-organized, and I appreciated the emphasis on conservation efforts. I highly recommend this safari for anyone looking for an authentic and thrilling wildlife adventure!

Amazing experience with a reliable and friendly tour operator

We had a wonderful and seamless safari experience with Meektrails. From the start William was so accommodating to all our requests the communication on his end was always very clear and he even organised a surprise cake for us on our anniversary at one of the hotels we stayed in. I would say the tour was a bit too pricey per person but Meektrails was quite reliable and their service was spot on, Our guide was Marcy a female guide in Kenya which is quite rare, she was superwoman! Her knowledge and love for animals was quite visible and her tenacity to show us the big 5 + other animals and her love and passion for the job was amazing. She really took care of us on our whole tour and was very patient with us. Kudos and thank you to both William and Marcy. We will definitely be booking our next safari trip with Meektrails again.

Outstanding 6-day safari in Kenya with Meektrails

We had a fantastic 6-day safari in Kenya with Meektrails. The entire experience was incredible! Before the trip, our tour consultant William was always ready to answer our multiple questions and doubts. For the Safari, we had the company of the best possible driver/guide ever, Antony Macharia! With the eyesight of an eagle, he could spot wild animals miles away and take us as close to the action as possible (and safe). We had the trip of a lifetime and we will never forget it. We strongly recommend Meetrails not only for their professionalism but also for the fantastic people that work there! Thank you William, thank you Antony, thank you all!

Top level experience. The best safari company there is.

A top level experience! When we first decided we wanted to go to Kenya, we had limited information and knowledge about Safari's. We therefore contacted multiple companies requesting quotes and itineraries. The one company that stood out above the rest were Meektrails. Our tour consulant (Peris) gave us timely and affordable quotes, straight to the point. Many other companies tried to negotiate a much higher price for the same itinerary and same hotels. Also, Peris was able to customise our safari schedule the way we wanted. We changed our schedule multiple times, and it was never an issue for meektrail.During the safari, we definitely had the most amazing safari expert, James. He had an incredible amount of knowledge, we was able to guide us to the best spots of the parks. He made the experience, more than just seeing animals. He was able to explain each detail of the animals behaviour patterns, diets, age, hunting methods. I can definitely see him being on National Geography channel in the future. The experience wouldnt have been the same if it were not for James.Finally, all the safari hotels that Meektrails had us stay were perfect, great quality and exceptional service. Will definitely be booking meektrail in the future, and reccomending meektrail to family and friends.

He was always clear about his expetations ( meeting times and places etc). He checked frequently with us to make sure we were getting the experience we wanted. And he delivered. We asked a million questions about animals,plants, and culture. George is a fountain of information and was never stumped. I will cherish the memories of my time with George.

Childhood dream

Our safari with Meektrails exceeded all the expectations. It was the most magical experience, a real childhood dream comes true type of adventure. The people behind Meektrails are beyond amazing, helpful and friendly, Charles was incredibly attentive, he helped with everything and answered every questions i had. Our driver Francis is the sweetest person, he went above and beyond to make sure we see every animal. His knowledge about the animals is amazing, he knows everything, from the name of smallest bird to things like what an elephant will do next, just from a look at it. We felt safe with him on the muddy roads of the national parks and the chaotic roads between the parks as well. He’s working as a safari tour guide for 18 years and he gives you all his experience to make your trip the best it can be. The lodges, that the company booked for us, were fantastic too. Clean rooms, friendly people, nice food, and there’s nothing like hearing a hyena in the middle of the night or drinking a nice cocktail and looking at the zebras basically in the garden. I can’t recommend Meektrails enough!

Incredible Safari Experience!!!

My wife and I booked a five day tour that included Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru & Masai Mara. The entire process from the beginning was seamless. Meektrails helped plan a customised tour with lots of flexibility on the accomodation and itinerary to suit our preferences. Peris was extremely knowledgeable, responsive and authentically caring about making our experience amazing! Our pickup in Nairobi was also made easy with a number of the Meektrails team welcoming us.Ben was our guide/driver and he was absolutely incredible throughout the safari! He communicated different options/timing of activities plus was always early and very prepared. His knowledge and insights on all the animals was excellent. It also felt like he constantly knew the best place to spot all the animals on game drives with us often seeing them first, before he let other guides know, resulting in us getting up very close to them. We simply loved spending time with him learning more about Kenya and his personal experiences.The 4x4 was super spacious and comfortable with all the amenities (chargers, binoculars, fridge). All our accomodations were also great with well equipped rooms, delicious food and unique experiences staying so close to the animals.A massive thank you to Ben, Peris and the Meektrails team for a once in a lifetime experience! We can’t recommend them enough.

Spectacular

My husband and I just did the six day Sopa loop Safari. We were picked up at our hotel in Nairobi and taken to Amboseli then to Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara. All three parks were uniquely beautiful and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We stayed 5 nights at three different Sopa lodges and we were very happy with all three lodges and the wonderful service we had there. If we could change one thing we would have liked an extra day on Lake Nakuru. We had one guide named Lucas who was with us every step of the way. Lucas made this experience so nice for us. He made sure he was there every morning at the lodge to pick us up on time. Lucas was very knowledgeable and patient. He went out of his way to make sure we got to see everything and get the perfect picture. He really wanted to make sure we were having the best experience and we were so appreciative. of that. We would love to come back again and bring the rest of the family. Just to be aware we did find out after if you are booking with a credit card it’s a 3.5 % service fee.

Wonderful choice of camps and lodges, 9 seater new Land Cruiser, just for me. My guide Antony was not only extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, but also a superb driver, what allowed us to do some stuff, that would not have been possible with a group safari :). I highly recommend them - all staff very friendly, always checking in with me, to secure that I got the most out of it.

We had an amazing safari in Masai Mara. Our tour guide, Julius, was great. He was very knowledgable and knew how to find all the animals. We managed to see 9 cheetahs (including one with kill) and too many lions, elephants, etc to count.Valentine at Meektrails was very helpful and quick to reply to any question via email or WhatsApp.You can pay by card through payment link or in person when you arrive. Just be sure to get newly minted USD if using as we had ones that were brand new but minted minted in 2006 and they are useless in Kenya. Easy to pay by card in the end even with 3.5% surcharge.

Incredible 5-day adventure with an extremely experienced, attentive, and professional guide, Sammy, who has 25+ years of experience.We highly appreciated how communicative and efficient MeekTrails was in the booking experience, and especially appreciated how they tailored the trip to our needs, as we added a trip to the elephant orphanage in Nairobi and a hot air balloon ride in the Maasai Mara.Sammy was the best. Experiences, safe guide who took us to all the best viewpoints in the Maasai Mara, and we got incredibly lucky to see 44 lions and 6 cheetahs and countless other animals during the 3 days we spent in the Mara. The other days we went to Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha, which were also amazing experiences.Sammy had so much knowledge about all the animals that we loved hearing. We were so impressed at his ability to spot rare animals from what seemed like miles away. And he kept us safe by spotting a lion during a lunch picnic in the bush and getting us and a nearby picnic group back into our vehicles :)Thank you MeekTrails for also upgrading us to the Lalashe hotel in the Maasai Mara, which was an absolutely luxurious experience that we won’t forget.Thank you!

No refund in sight

Be extremely cautious when booking. Charles was great to deal with and we were very excited for our trip and itinerary. Unfortunately on December 6, 2024 we needed to cancel our trip for January 2025. The contract specifically says “100% refund guarantee if you are unable to make it”.It’s been 5 weeks now of daily/weekly follow up and I have not received a refund. I was told the refund would take 3-7 business days. Ive been told the refund has been processed 4 different times but no money has been returned to me.When I left a google review of my experience (after waiting for a month), I am being harassed daily to take it down. I did inform Daniel that I would be happy to update my review once I see my refund.In lieu of my refund, instead, I am now receiving unprofessional, disrespectful messages from the owner Daniel because I am following up on my refund.Buyer beware.

Incredible wildlife and birding experience

My family and I visited Kenya for 9 days over the holiday period. Our itinerary included a day in Nairobi, and then the national parks of Amboseli, Naivasha, Elementaita, Nakuru and Masai Mara. Since making initial contact with Meektrails, the process could not have been smoother. Charles built us an itinerary based on our preferences, and quoted for various options of accommodation and vehicle class. He was easy to contact over email and WhatsApp (where the majority of our communication took place) and happily amended the itinerary, dates and number of people multiple times until it suited us perfectly. He made enquiries of specific dietary/mobility requirements and passed this information on to the lodges. At various intervals before the trip, Charles sent reminders of requirements, eg, visa application, vaccinations.On arrival, we were greeted by the Meektrails team and introduced to our driver-guide Bernard Njinu. With 25 years experience, he demonstrated vast in-depth knowledge of animal and bird habits- and helped us spot and identify 112 species of birds and 34 species of mammals (including the big 5) and reptiles. We were in particular impressed with his bird knowledge - he was able to spot and identify various species from a distance, from imposing storks and endangered vultures to skulking pipits and longclaws and plovers. Seeing the whydahs and widow birds were a particular highlight. Even experienced twitchers won't be disappointed.Njinu (pronounced without the N) was forthcoming with knowledge about all aspects of the area- geological, historical and cultural. He was extremely professional, friendly, approachable and took great care of us- he brought along a two-step stool to aid my mum with weak knees climb in and out of the vehicle; and planned in frequent comfort breaks for my dad who has diabetes. Njinu was very patient through the game drives and was invested in making sure we got the most out of our time in Kenya.The trip itself was exactly as planned, with no corners cut, no hidden costs (note that tips are standard practice and not included in your quote- I recommended you account for this in advance). The vehicle was comfortable and very fit for purpose. All accommodation including hotels, tented camps and lodges was exactly as advertised/ expected at great locations in or very close to the national parks. Food was good, rooms comfortable, but the hospitality and service were what took our stay to the next level.Now back from holiday, my family agree that this was hands-down one of the best holidays/experiences of our lives. The country of Kenya with its incredible wildlife, landscapes, culture and people has touched our hearts - and Meektrails made it all accessible in the most painless and enjoyable way possible. If you are considering a trip to Kenya or east Africa, I highly recommend Meektrails Safaris for your adventure.

Noushad

Our family of four, including two kids had an incredible 5-day safari in Kenya, thanks to the fantastic team at MEEKTRAILS SAFARIS. Right from the start, the communication with Valentine Ngatha was seamless. She was extremely helpful and responsive, ensuring all our queries were addressed and our itinerary was perfectly planned.The accommodations were top-notch, offering a great balance of comfort and a close-to-nature feel. The food was delicious, with plenty of options that suited both adults and kids in our Indian family.However, at one of our stays in Masai Mara, the generator was turned off between 1 am and 4 am, which was a minor inconvenience.Our guide, Mr. Onesmus, was the star of the trip. His exceptional wildlife knowledge, patience with our kids, and ability to spot animals made every game drive unforgettable. We saw the Big Five and so much more, making the experience truly special.The entire trip was well-organized, stress-free, and filled with lifelong memories. We highly recommend MEEKTRAILS SAFARIS for an authentic and hassle-free safari in Kenya!

Also our reservation for the last two nights haven't been made, even though I have gotten confirmation from Meektrails several times that the reservations for the hotel was made. Due to the missing reservations we had to spent the first two nights at another hotel, we were lucky to get a room at yhe planned hotel for the last two nights. Due to the situation our guide started with a challenge and he handled the situation really well. Our guide was throughout the hole tour very nice and professional, and had a lot of knowledge about the different animals we saw.

They proposed very cozy, clean and perfectly-located accommodations having all the amenities and very good food.

Fantastic African Safari!

We scheduled our trip through Eluid who was very accommodating and easy to work with. Our driver was Ben who was outstanding and extremely knowledgeable about the animals and the history of the different parks we visited. Communication was very easy and he made us feel very comfortable and safe throughout our entire trip. I highly recommend Meektrails, Eluid and Ben to anyone when planning to rake a safari trip.

Professional and caring safari company that we would use again.

We did the 6 day safari with Meektrails to Amboselli, Nakuru and Massai Mara. Charles from Meektrails was so responsive in all the planning for the trip and guiding us on visas. The safari itself was wonderful with Philip as our guide and driver. He was so kind and knowledgeable and was a very safe driver considering the difficult road conditions. Tourists should be aware that the driving time can be longer than expected in the brochures as the rain can damage the roads or due to traffic. For our trip all the accommodations and meals were wonderful and the overall Safari experience is one we will treasure forever! Thank you to the Meektrails team!

Great Safari with Meektrails

We recently completed a 7 night safari with Meektrails and had a great experience. Our tour was originally organized by Charles who was very responsive and able to customize our itinerary to our wishes and budget. We spent time in Maasai mara, Nakuru, Amboseli, and Tsavo and enjoyed all of them. The land cruiser was in excellent condition, with a pop-up roof, huge roll down windows, comfortable seats, and working power plugs.Our amazing guide was Anthony who really elevated the experience and allowed us to have an incredible Safari. From the start Anthony was so friendly and open, and made it clear his aim was to make our experience as great as possible. He was absolutely amazing at finding animals and getting us as close as possible to all different animals. We saw everything we had expected and more including cubs and young of nearly every species. He knows all the roads, routes, and small trails which allowed us to get very up close experiences. He also seems to know everyone, from other guides to park rangers which helped us learn about and find the location of animals. He was even also able to organize an early entrance to a couple of the parks to allow us to see sunrise in the park with the animals.Throughout the trip Anthony always double checked the planned schedule with us and offered many suggestions for changes or additions to the plan which really improved the trip. It's clear he has a lot of experience, and local knowledge which allowed him to adjust the itinerary in the best way possible. It's also clear he cares greatly for the local communities and organized for us to give our unused lunch packs to local children rather than seeing the food go to waste.We greatly appreciated our time with Anthony and thanks to him the safari exceeded all our expectations. As for Meektrails the booking process was responsive and easy, and everything was organized as discussed with no hitches. We would certainly organize another safari with Meektrails if returning to Kenya.

Best guide, best company

Our 7-day safari with Meektrails Safaris in Kenya with our guide Anthony was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, the experience exceeded all expectations. Our guide Anthony was phenomenal—he was knowledgeable, patient, and went above and beyond to ensure we saw everything on our wildlife wishlist. Thanks to his incredible skill and dedication, we had close encounters with the Big Five, witnessed breathtaking landscapes, and even saw species we hadn’t expected. His passion for wildlife and his deep understanding of the ecosystem made every game drive an adventure filled with learning and excitement. The accommodations and planning by Meektrails were seamless, making the whole journey stress-free and comfortable. Whether it was sunrise safari or tracking animals, every moment was magical. If you’re looking for a safari company that delivers an exceptional experience with a personal touch, Meektrails Safaris is the one. Highly recommended!

Unforgettable first safari

We chose MeekTrails for our first family Safari in Kenya and it was a great choice. We built with them a program that perfectly fitted to our group (with people of different ages 11-60). Our five day safari brought us to Amboseli, Nakuru Lake and Masai Mara Nationals Parks and our fantastic guide Njinu made us see a lot of wild wonderful animals, included the big five! He could always find the best spots that made our experience unforgettable. The Sopa Lodges we chose were clean and comfortable, with a lot of services and pools.We strongly recommend MeekTrails if you’re thinking about going to Kenya to make a safari to discover african wikdlife! 🐆🐅🐘🦒🦏🐃

A week we never will forget

First of all: a big Thank You to the whole team of Meek Trails. From the first contact with Diana until the last drop off at the hotel in Nairobi everything was perfect. Especially Philip: he was calm during driving, told us everything we should know about Africa, the animals, the plants and how to behave in Kenia. Everyday we felt that he was not only doing his job very well, but he was really loving the nature, the big animals and the small ones, specially the moorhens. He was patient, waited with us for the best moments, so we were very lucky to see all the animals we had hoped to see and were able to shoot beautiful photos. We saw the Big 5, the Ugliest 5 and many others and many birds. The days with Philip were full of seeing things and many laughters. The chosen hotels were all beautiful, the meals very good. At last: Thank you Meek Trails for that beautiful and unforgettable surprise at my birthday, when the whole team of the Zebra Camp and a Masai-Group were singing and dancing for me. Diana and Philip: Asante sani - we will miss you!

A Perfectly Organized Trip – Highly Recommend!

I recently traveled with Meektrail Safari, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the very beginning, Valentine was incredibly helpful in planning and organizing every detail of our trip. She was always swift to answer our questions and ensured that everything was very well arranged.During our journey, we were accompanied by Ben, who was knowledgeable, professional, experienced, and friendly. He not only knew where the animals were, but also could put us in the best position to see them. His stories about the animals and the Kenya culture made the experience even more enjoyable. He went beyond to make sure we had a memorable trip.From the accommodations to the activities, all exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend Meektrail Safari to anyone looking for a well-organized and unforgettable safari experience.Thank you again to Meektrail and Ben for making this trip so unique. I will definitely be booking with you again in the future!

A Majestic Safari!!

Planning a two-week safari is a aunting task especially when you want to experience and “see” as much as you can. We needed someone who have the resources and the patience to manage our needs. Meektrails stood out right away as they took their time to understand our needs, at the same time advising and making alternative suggestions, in order to make the itinerary more feasible during the time we had. Whilst other companies provided us with various options, most of their proposals seemed “canned” and were not as flexible in changing the itinerary nor the available accommodations. We wanted a range of activities and a varied choice on accommodations. On both ends, Meektrails DELLIVERED!!They provided us with a wide range of choices in accommodations, from luxurious lodges and tented camps to authentic camps in the reserves. It was a surreal experience having the thrill of camping in the open park at the same time being pampered in luxurious settings.We went on some of the best parks that Kenya and Tanzania had to over – Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. The vehicle used was always clean and great condition. The guides were professional and very knowledgeable not only about the wildlife but also about the culture and history.Aside from the majestic game drives, we were able to go on a boat safari, a walking safari, and a bike safari – all wonderful additions to the adventure! We also had a magical experience visiting an authentic Masai village and got to meet and learn more about their rich and vibrant culture and community. In Tanzania, we visited a local market in Arusha (we were one of only a handful of tourists). Again, it was such a fulfilling experience to meet and learn about the local culture! Our holiday ended with a relaxing 3 days on the beach in Zanzibar!Meektrails worked well with their counterparts in Tanzania and Zanzibar. They were professional, authentic, and genuine - regularly checking in on us to make sure everything was going well. It was comforting to know that we were on their watch during the entire holiday! They showed flexibility and quick action to accommodate us. Two examples come to mind: • Our flight from Zanzibar back to Nairobi was changed by the airline without informing us nor Meektrails (apparently not unusual for this airline). Meektrails went to work immediately (already late evening) and got us on another flight. Since the flight was much earlier than the original, we had 18 hours in Nairobi before our flight back home. For this, they provided us with a room in a fabulous hotel near the airport!! • Our car got stuck on the way to the airport. Within 20 minutes, a replacement car came to pick up and continue the journey. All this at 2:30 in the morning in Zanzibar!We highy recommended Meektrails for your next Safari to Kenya and Tanzania!! They are professional, flexible and accommodating, genuine and authentic!!

Great 10 day safari with Meektrails

We had a fantastic 10 day safari with Meektrails. Amboseli, Ol Pejeta, Samburu, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and finished off in the Masai Mara. The whole process was very organised and slick from start to finish, from the initial contact and booking through the pickup drop off and safari itself. Accommodation was a really high standard and we had a dedicated vehicle and guide just for the two of us. Our guide Joseph was absolutely brilliant, would definitely recommend him. Saw everything we would possibly hope to see, lions, leopards, cheetahs etc. We are both birdwatchers and Joseph was very knowledgeable and happy to tailor the game drives to what we were interested in. It was our first ever safari and we struggled to pick a company, but we are so glad we went with Meektrails, a good competitive price and a great experience.

Fantastic 8 day safari tour with an amazing guide (Peter!)

We had a fantastic experience with Meektrails. Our 7 nights/8 days safari tour was very well organised, and our guide Peter went above and beyond to make sure we saw as many animals as possible and had an exciting adventure in Kenya. We visited Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara and the itinerary was a great mix of game drives and other activities (e.g. cycling, walking, and boat tours). We went for mid-range accommodation, and all lodges were beautiful, clean, and with all amenities for a comfortable stay.From start to finish, Meektrails were incredibly professional, responsive and attentive. Their quote was competitive and they tailored our itinerary to our needs and wishes. William provided all the necessary information and we felt at all times well looked after by him and our guide Peter. Peter's knowledge of the parks and the animals stood out and really made the trip a once in a lifetime experience. We highly recommend Meektrails if you're looking for a professional safari company with a personal touch!

Cheating during booking finalisation

I shouldn’t even give 1 star for such a terrible experience in booking a safari with them.We asked for 6N/7D in June 2025 . I went for negotiating based on their exorbitant rates . Their staff discussed with their boss and quoted 1250 dollars just 2 days before for group of 3 with mara maisha(3N) , avion court hotel (1N) at naivasha and Kibo safari (2N) at amboselli including giraffe Center at nairobi and geo spa.Considering this as a good deal, we planned to book our flights from Germany . But today they say there is a system error and actual price is 2300 dollars pp for group of 3 .If the guy has just checked in system and gave me the price 2 days before, I would have considered their reason.But after discussing with his boss several times, he quoted the price for 1250 dollars and today he changed to 2300$ .I seriously wonder how his boss is able to give acceptance for 1250 dollars 2 days before and now his staff says that was a system error. What kinda company they are running ?Please don’t believe this safari operator since they are not delivering safari operator.They will say they will deliver best experience in safari . But in the end they cheat is like this .The whole Sunday is being spoiled for us because of these guys .

We visited Amboseli, Navaisha, Nakuru and Masai Mara in 6 days. We also enjoyed our hot air balloon ride with Balloon Safari. MUST do. We had an amazing breakfast inside Masai Mara. We’re already thinking about going back and we’ll definitely reach out to Meektrails again! Thank guys for the wonderful memories!!

Best experience of our life

One of the most satisfying Safari experiences for my wife and me both senior citizens. MT staff took so good care of us organised special events for my wife's 60th birthday and our anniversary. We not only saw the big 5 but so many more animals and birds with picturesque views of sunrise and sunset with Mt. Kilimanjaro with snow peak in background Food was very good even for vegetarians with MT staff taking great care of you culinary needs and your food allergiesPauline was the standout person answering to all our stupid questions promptly at all odd hours and charting a memorable trip. Wilson our guide cum driver could practically "smell" animals out and gave us a wonderful gaming experience. Entire crew deserves Kudos

Meektravels and Bernard Njinu are excellent partners for your Kenia Safari experience

We met Bernard Njinu after a short night at our hotel outside Nairobi with his 6 seater jeep in wonderful condition. We started our 1300 km road trip with a long drive south to the Ambosseli National Park on the foot of the majestic Kilimanjaro. Bernard has been doing this job for decades. He is a brilliant driver and knows exactly when to speak. He is super resourceful and educated. In Ambosseli he found us brilliant sightings of lions, leopards, cheetahs, endless elephants, wildebeests, zebras and more. From Ambosseli we travelled north west to Lake Navaisha where back in 1985 the then blockbuster movie „Out of Africq“ was filmed. At that time many animals where place on its shores who continue to live there in generations that followed. This allowed us to do a walking tour as well as a boat trip to see hordes of hippos and birdlife. The following morning we did a bike ride into a valley of high served as an inspiration to the Lion King before starting our journey to the Massai Mara Reserve outside the Serengeti. Visiting a Massai village with dance, style of living, fire making and local memorabilia which serves as an income for the village. Thanks to his patience we saw the big cats again in various constellations. We spent 2 nights at the Mara Maisha a beautiful camp which we highly recommend. From there we drove to the Kenia/Tanzania border where Bernard handed us over the his colleague from Serengeti Clarity (see separate report). We recommend Bernard highly, would give him 10 stars if we could!

My daughter and I just finished an 8 day safari trip with Meektrails to Amboseli Park, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara Park and Lake Nakuru. Esther helped us plan the trip and was very responsive to our questions. Anthony, our driver and guide was great - friendly, professional, so experienced! He knew where to go to spot animals, explained things, and answered questions, stopped for photos. He was an excellent driver and we felt very safe in his hands. The time flew by and was suddenly over!! Our favourite hotel was the Sarova Game Camp in Masai Mara. All the hotels helped us with our gluten free dairy free diet. Absolutely no problem there. Delicious food at all the hotels. I highly recommend Meektrails!

Amazing time in Kenya thanks to our fabulous guide Anthony, Eliud's organisation and all the Meektrails team. We visited Amboseli, Lake Naivashe, Lake Nakuru, and Massi Mara, 3 Sopa Lodges and Royal Zebra in Masai and all were great locations, good food and great facilities. Saw different animals/scenery at each place, and the tour was well organised with Tony making each place so interesting with his knowledge and conversation. Even the long journeys were good as he told us about the people, and facts about each area we drove through. Would recommend them completely and hope we will be lucky enough to go back one day.

Fantastic Safari experience with Meekstrails and Bernard Nijnu

I have had the good fortune to have travelled to many countries and joined many tours and also enjoyed several safaris.Our tour with Meekstrails safaris was over nine days during which time we must have covered 2,500 KMs , traversing across Kenya and visiting Tsavo West and Amboselli National Parks in the south of the country, up to Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Lake Naivasha in the north and finally, three days in the Masai Mara National Reserve.There were five of us in the truck, all seasoned travellers.We saw all of the big 5, on one day viewing 26 lions in 4 separate sightings, including a post kill of a cape buffalo with the male head of the herd guarding the carcass and the cubs and lionesses sleeping under a nearby bush. We also saw a leopard at night, cheetah walking right past our truck, the protected rhino at Ol Pejeta, herds of hippo, and a sea eagle on a boat trip. We also had a cycle and hike at Hell’s Gate and joined in a fertility dance with the males of a tribe in the Masai Mara, where apparently the higher you can jump determines how many wives once is allowed to have – I could not jump very high and will have to stick with the one I have got.Our trip was made the more memorable through the care and attention to detail of our guide and driver, Bernard Njinu. He showed how incredibly knowledgeable he is of the Kenyan wildlife, birds and trees. He also shared with us interesting facets of the local economy, different tribes and the way of life in Kenya. He joined in the banter whilst he was driving, with the rest of us in the back of the truck. His passion for the wildlife in Kenya and for his job shown through.We were all incredibly grateful that we had Bernard as our guide and he made our trip truly memorable. We could not rate Bernard and Meekstrails highly enough, their service levels are world class and both Bernard and the company go out of their way to ensure that their guests have a great time, whilst ensuring a high level of safety.If you are contemplating a safari holiday in Africa, you would be hard pressed to find a better company than Meekstrails Safaris and a better guide than Bernard Nijnu.

Fantastic safari with Meektrails

Just finished a 3 night safari with Meektrails and cannot recommend them enough. Our guide was George who was knowledgable of the people, places and animals we saw and always had a funny story! We spent our first night in Ziwa Bush Lodge which was remote but amazing. The following two nights we stayed at Mtito Safari Camp which was incredible. I have never stayed somewhere that was both in the middle of nowhere and in a tent but with fantastic facilities and impeccable service!During the days, we went to several national parks and reservations as well as a Masai village.Overall, the trip was fantastically organised, excellent day trips and the night time food and accommodation were fantastic and George our guide was the highlight of the trip!

George, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the animals and birds we saw and had so many interesting stories. I learned a lot about Kenya and can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed the trip. It was brilliant. We felt so well taken care of. The accommodation was very comfortable and bit remote - we felt like we were steeped in the nature experience. Loved everything about it.

Peris was great for help us to plan the perfect trip and was extremely helpful with everything, from adapting the trip to our needs to even book a train ticket on our behalf. Anthony, our driver and guide for the entirety of the trip was amazing. His knowledge and expertise were impressive and we learned so much. I really wanted to see lion cubs and he made sure we’d find them. He almost had a sixth sense of where the animals would be and where they’d go. We’ve seen 4 or the big 5 (no leopards in sight!) and so many other animals. We’ve seen so many baby animals. I 100% recommend them for your safari.

Kenya Safari with Meektrails

We traveled to Kenya in February with a group of friends and had an amazing safari experience. Initially, I reached out to Meektrails via Booking Safari, and they proposed a 7-day safari for us. Additionally, since we wanted to relax for a few extra days by the Indian Ocean, they organized a train journey to Mombasa and booked a fantastic hotel by the sea.Peris, the manager, did an excellent job. She listened carefully to all our preferences and created the perfect itinerary for us. She responded promptly and with great kindness throughout the planning process. They also took care of all the transfers to and from the hotels before and after the safari, making the whole experience seamless and stress-free.Josef, our driver and guide, was wonderful. He is a highly professional person who accompanied us throughout the trip and took care of everything. He drove safely, always finding the best spots for photos, and patiently waited for the animals to appear.All my concerns about safety and service during the safari were completely unnecessary, as all the lodges were in fantastic locations with excellent service. The food was also top-notch.

And amazing trip of a lifetime!

This was a trip of a lifetime with Meektrails. We saw every possible animal I could imagine and I was also very impressed with the hundreds of birds we saw. I would say this would be a birders Paradise . All of our accommodations were upscale, and the food was fantastic. But by far our best experience was with our guide Joseph. Not only was he a wonderful, kind human being, but I’ve never met anybody so knowledgeable about animals and birds and their behavior. He was always so upbeat and positive and made our trip so much fun.

Excellent Experience

Booking with Meektrails is the way to go. Everything was taken care of and the accommodations were excellent. If you want to experience all the beauty of Kenya, use Meektrails. And if you use Meektrails, ask for George, our wonderful guide for all eight days. We saw Nairobi National Park, Amboseli National Park, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara National Reserve. Each location unique, diverse and absolutely breathtaking. By the end of the trip, we saw the Big 5 and so much more. George was an great advocate for the lands we traveled to, a knowledgable educator on the wild life and a perfect ambassador for all of Kenya. 6 stars. Highly recommended.

The BEST

We had the absolute BEST safari experience with Meektrails. We visited Nairobi National Park, Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara. George was our tour guide and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. He was welcoming, upbeat, funny and so incredibly knowledgeable about all the animals we encountered. He knew where to find the big cats that hide and always made sure we were able to see them well. We saw the Big Five and so much more. George was patient and kind with our two children (7 and 9) and that made the trip so much less stressful.In terms of planning, Pauline was kind, patient, and responsive. She answered all questions and it was lovely for her to come meet us in person and see us off! I will 100% recommend this company to anyone that wants to come to Kenya for a safari, and also recommend George to be their guide!

Perfect Safari with our awesome guide Philipp from Meek Trails

We had a great time on our Safari. The accomodations chosen by meek trail were really nice. We had always good food and clean rooms. Our guide Philipp made the Safari really special and he managed to present us all of the Big 5. On top, we had a lot of fun on our journey and learnt a lot about Kenya and his wild life. We can recommend Meek Trails and Philipp 100%.

Thank you. We really enjoyed the tour!

My husband and I booked a ten-day private tour which included Amboseli National Park, Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Samburu National Reserve, Lake Navasha, Hell´s Gate National Park and Masai Mara National park. The tour was incredible! Each protected area is unique and we enjoyed the diversity of Kenyan landscapes.We were lucky to have Lukas as our guide/driver who is very friendly and professional. Lukas is well organized but also flexible, there were no misunderstandings or uncomfortable situations at all. It was all perfect. He showed us a lot of wild animals and explained about them. We saw not only the big five, but many different species of antelopes, monkeys and baboons, beautiful birds and many more! We really enjoyed watching animals in their natural habitats. The experiences we made during the tour were beyond our expectation.Unfortunately, our flight back home was cancelled and we were obliged to stay two days longer in Kenya. But our friendly tour coordinator Esther quickly arranged an additional two-day tour for us. On the first day we walked in the canyon in the Hell´s Gate National Park which was geologically very interesting. On the second day we climbed Mt. Longonot. That was quite challenging for us but became an unforgettable experience.Communication with Esther was always smooth. All the lodges we stayed were comfortable and the food was good.We are very happy we booked our safari tour with Meektrails Safari. And we would love to have Lukas as our guide next time as well.

An Unforgettable Safari with MeekTrails – Africa at Its Best!

My wife and I adored our 10-day safari with MeekTrails across **Amboseli**, **Lake Nakuru**, and **Maasai Mara**. Each park dazzled us: Amboseli’s elephants roaming under Kilimanjaro, Nakuru’s flamingo-filled lakeshores, and Mara’s endless lion sightings—including a pride with cubs!**Esther**, our planner, deserves applause. She tailored every detail, answered queries instantly, and even upgraded our Mara lodge! Her dedication made us feel like VIPs.Driver **John** was a gem—punctual, witty, and eagle-eyed. He tracked lions effortlessly and explained animal behaviors with infectious enthusiasm. Long drives flew by thanks to his stories and sharp spotting skills!

Memorable Masai Mara👌

It was most memorable trip for us, very well organized by Esther where she made sure everything was included in the trip. Our guide Mr.James was so nice from time he picked us till he dropped us to airport, we had a great time in Safari where we could spot most of the wild life very closely. The stay was amazing with very good resorts/food which was done by them, Definitely I am referring Meektrails #Esther#Mr James to all my friends.Thank you guys for making it so special for us remembering life time.

Unforgettable

Our safari package was absolutely unforgettable! We saw many animals and our guide Sammy Wild was exceptional, knowledgeable, friendly, and great at spotting wildlife. Our hotels were all beautiful and comfortable, with excellent food and stunning views. The highlight was the hot air balloon ride at sunrise, offering breathtaking views of the savannahs and wildlife below. The entire experience was well-organized, and I appreciated the emphasis on conservation efforts. I highly recommend this safari for anyone looking for an authentic and thrilling wildlife adventure! But our guid was was the true highlight,an amazing human being. Our guide Sammy Wild is the best.

Amazing experience with a reliable and friendly tour operator

We had a wonderful and seamless safari experience with Meektrails. From the start William was so accommodating to all our requests the communication on his end was always very clear and he even organised a surprise cake for us on our anniversary at one of the hotels we stayed in. I would say the tour was a bit too pricey per person but Meektrails was quite reliable and their service was spot on, Our guide was Marcy a female guide in Kenya which is quite rare, she was superwoman! Her knowledge and love for animals was quite visible and her tenacity to show us the big 5 + other animals and her love and passion for the job was amazing. She really took care of us on our whole tour and was very patient with us. Kudos and thank you to both William and Marcy. We will definitely be booking our next safari trip with Meektrails again.

Outstanding 6-day safari in Kenya with Meektrails

We had a fantastic 6-day safari in Kenya with Meektrails. The entire experience was incredible! Before the trip, our tour consultant William was always ready to answer our multiple questions and doubts. For the Safari, we had the company of the best possible driver/guide ever, Antony Macharia! With the eyesight of an eagle, he could spot wild animals miles away and take us as close to the action as possible (and safe). We had the trip of a lifetime and we will never forget it. We strongly recommend Meetrails not only for their professionalism but also for the fantastic people that work there! Thank you William, thank you Antony, thank you all!

Top level experience. The best safari company there is.

A top level experience! When we first decided we wanted to go to Kenya, we had limited information and knowledge about Safari's. We therefore contacted multiple companies requesting quotes and itineraries. The one company that stood out above the rest were Meektrails. Our tour consulant (Peris) gave us timely and affordable quotes, straight to the point. Many other companies tried to negotiate a much higher price for the same itinerary and same hotels. Also, Peris was able to customise our safari schedule the way we wanted. We changed our schedule multiple times, and it was never an issue for meektrail.During the safari, we definitely had the most amazing safari expert, James. He had an incredible amount of knowledge, we was able to guide us to the best spots of the parks. He made the experience, more than just seeing animals. He was able to explain each detail of the animals behaviour patterns, diets, age, hunting methods. I can definitely see him being on National Geography channel in the future. The experience wouldnt have been the same if it were not for James.Finally, all the safari hotels that Meektrails had us stay were perfect, great quality and exceptional service. Will definitely be booking meektrail in the future, and reccomending meektrail to family and friends.

the guide made our trip

George was our guide. He maintained a professional approach and relationship with us yet he felt like my brother when we were done. He was always clear about his expetations ( meeting times and places etc). He checked frequently with us to make sure we were getting the experience we wanted. And he delivered. We asked a million questions about animals,plants, and culture. George is a fountain of information and was never stumped. I will cherish the memories of my time with George.

Reliable choice

We have a wonderful private safari tour from Masai Mara to Nakuru Naivasha, and then Amboseli. Its proper arranged, comfortable and worthy to its price. Our guide Philip is very professional and full of humor. He is good at wild animal knowledge and also very good at searching animals in parks, he always trying to drive us to the best photo point. And we may have long road trip sometime, but it will never be dull with Philip. Our booking consultant William is also very professional and helpful. He is always keen to reply every questions and be reliable enough on planning the trip and do every bookings. The meektrialssafari offers a reasonable price with high quality. Thank you for the memoriable trip!

Childhood dream

Our safari with Meektrails exceeded all the expectations. It was the most magical experience, a real childhood dream comes true type of adventure. The people behind Meektrails are beyond amazing, helpful and friendly, Charles was incredibly attentive, he helped with everything and answered every questions i had. Our driver Francis is the sweetest person, he went above and beyond to make sure we see every animal. His knowledge about the animals is amazing, he knows everything, from the name of smallest bird to things like what an elephant will do next, just from a look at it. We felt safe with him on the muddy roads of the national parks and the chaotic roads between the parks as well. He’s working as a safari tour guide for 18 years and he gives you all his experience to make your trip the best it can be. The lodges, that the company booked for us, were fantastic too. Clean rooms, friendly people, nice food, and there’s nothing like hearing a hyena in the middle of the night or drinking a nice cocktail and looking at the zebras basically in the garden. I can’t recommend Meektrails enough!

Great Meektrails Safaris

Pauline, was tour organizer for family to enjoy safari and beautiful people of Kenya..She understand personal need for family I was making arrangement for them. Despite of time difference, we manage to communicate nicely. She answer all question and give excellent , detailed information to travel to Kenya and Safari. There is nothing but compliments and thanks to her. She is making sure all arrangements will be not only smooth, but very much enjoyable. Waruri – director of Meektrails Safaris ensure me, that there will be no issues and glitches. Pauline make herself available on weekends, late hours just to ease my mind. Soft spoken, no irritation in he voice, patience is her trademarks. Don’t hesitate to reach to Meektrails Safaris , especially to Pauline. I truly appreciate their kindness.

Incredible Safari Experience!!!

My wife and I booked a five day tour that included Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru & Masai Mara. The entire process from the beginning was seamless. Meektrails helped plan a customised tour with lots of flexibility on the accomodation and itinerary to suit our preferences. Peris was extremely knowledgeable, responsive and authentically caring about making our experience amazing! Our pickup in Nairobi was also made easy with a number of the Meektrails team welcoming us.Ben was our guide/driver and he was absolutely incredible throughout the safari! He communicated different options/timing of activities plus was always early and very prepared. His knowledge and insights on all the animals was excellent. It also felt like he constantly knew the best place to spot all the animals on game drives with us often seeing them first, before he let other guides know, resulting in us getting up very close to them. We simply loved spending time with him learning more about Kenya and his personal experiences.The 4x4 was super spacious and comfortable with all the amenities (chargers, binoculars, fridge). All our accomodations were also great with well equipped rooms, delicious food and unique experiences staying so close to the animals.A massive thank you to Ben, Peris and the Meektrails team for a once in a lifetime experience! We can’t recommend them enough.

Our expert guide Bernard Njinu made the whole experience first class, he is an absolute fountain of knowledge in all things safari, animals, Kenya, landscape - absolutely anything and everything you could want to know! We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional experience. The accommodation, food and transport was great, perfectly organised.

Spectacular

My husband and I just did the six day Sopa loop Safari. We were picked up at our hotel in Nairobi and taken to Amboseli then to Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara. All three parks were uniquely beautiful and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We stayed 5 nights at three different Sopa lodges and we were very happy with all three lodges and the wonderful service we had there. If we could change one thing we would have liked an extra day on Lake Nakuru. We had one guide named Lucas who was with us every step of the way. Lucas made this experience so nice for us. He made sure he was there every morning at the lodge to pick us up on time. Lucas was very knowledgeable and patient. He went out of his way to make sure we got to see everything and get the perfect picture. He really wanted to make sure we were having the best experience and we were so appreciative. of that. We would love to come back again and bring the rest of the family. Just to be aware we did find out after if you are booking with a credit card it’s a 3.5 % service fee.

Solo Safari with the fastest guide in Kenya

Meektrail organized a wonderful 8 days Safari with me, were very good to adapting and changing the itinerary, til it was the perfect tour, including some of the best parks in Kenya and Tanzania. Wonderful choice of camps and lodges, 9 seater new Land Cruiser, just for me. My guide Antony was not only extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, but also a superb driver, what allowed us to do some stuff, that would not have been possible with a group safari :). I highly recommend them - all staff very friendly, always checking in with me, to secure that I got the most out of it.
