Highlights

NAIROBI TO MAASAI MARA

Maasai Mara National Reserve - At 8:00 AM, guests will be picked up from their hotel or residence within Nairobi CBD to begin the journey to Mara. The drive includes a stop at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint, offering a stunning view of the valley floor. Arrival at Maasai Mara is scheduled for lunchtime. In the afternoon, after checking in, guests will embark on a game viewing drive in the Mara Reserve. The day concludes with a delicious buffet dinner at Mara Ntulele Camp or Rhino Tourist Camp.

FULL DAY MAASAI MARA

Maasai Mara National Reserve - Around 7:00 AM, after breakfast, guests will set out for a full day of exploration in Masai Mara, seeking the Big Five. A picnic lunch will be provided in the park. Visitors will witness the site of the annual wildebeest migration and observe resident crocodiles and hippos along the Mara River banks. The Mara is renowned for hosting the spectacular natural event of the great migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebra migrate from the Serengeti (in Tanzania) in search of water and pasture, followed by savanna predators such as lions, cheetahs, jackals, hyenas, and vultures.

Mara River - This is the location of the great wildebeest migration, where one million wildebeest move between the Serengeti and Maasai Mara.

MAASAI MARA TO LAKE NAKURU

Lake Nakuru - After breakfast, guests will depart for Lake Nakuru National Park, arriving in time for lunch at the camp, followed by an afternoon game drive. Lake Nakuru is a shallow alkaline lake near Nakuru town, famous for its millions of flamingos. The number of flamingos varies with the water level, which affects the algae they feed on. Flamingos migrate to other Rift Valley lakes when water levels are low. The National Park, established to protect the flamingo colony, also serves as a sanctuary for endangered species like the rhino. It hosts about 25 white and black rhinos, one of the largest concentrations in the country. Predators also inhabit this park, and Rothschild’s giraffes have been relocated here for protection.

Lake Nakuru to Lake Naivasha

Lake Naivasha - Guests will enjoy an early breakfast, check out, and depart by 7:00 AM directly to Lake Nakuru National Park for a game drive. This small park is home to magnificent, rare white rhinos, part of the Big Five. There is also a chance to see pink flamingos. The game drive lasts 3-4 hours, followed by game viewing on the way out. The ecosystem includes the lake, surrounded by wooded and bushy grasslands, supporting a wide ecological diversity, including flamingos and other water birds, and the Black and White Rhinoceros, which are major attractions. Lunch will be at a traveler’s motel in Naivasha. After lunch, guests will head to Lake Naivasha for a 1-hour boat ride, enjoying bird watching, eagle feeding, and viewing pelicans and hippos. After the boat ride, guests will return to the dock.

Lake Naivasha - Guests have the option of a boat ride on Lake Naivasha for hippo viewing and birdwatching, enjoying the beautiful scenery of flower farms.

NAIVASHA TO AMBOSELI

Amboseli National Park - After an early breakfast, guests will check out by 7:00 AM to proceed to Hell’s Gate National Park for a biking safari. A guided tour will allow guests to observe various animal species like zebras, buffalos, giraffes, and antelopes while biking. A guided walk in the gorge will follow, where guests can explore the park’s gorges and caves. After the tour, bikes will be returned at the gate. Guests will then drive to Naivasha Kifaru restaurant or Mai Mahiu hotel for lunch before heading to Amboseli, arriving in the evening. After checking in at the lodge, guests can swim and relax, with the game drive scheduled for the next day.

FULL DAY AMBOSELI NATIONAL PARK

Amboseli National Park - Guests will be picked up in the morning for a drive to Amboseli National Park, renowned for its scenery with snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro as a backdrop, dominating the landscape and open plains. Guests will check in for lunch at Kibo Safari Lodge, followed by a short rest. An afternoon game drive will seek popular residents like well-known predators and their counterparts, such as zebras, wildebeests, giraffes, and hippos, with a view of Mt. Kilimanjaro.

An exceptional guide – an unforgettable experience! - The best guide we could have had We had a fantastic experience with our guide Albert! He was very professional, always attentive to our needs and resolved each situation calmly and effectively. He drove excellently and his great knowledge of the terrain greatly enriched our trip. We felt safe, comfortable and very well taken care of at all times. Fully recommended, a top guide who made our trip unforgettable!

Once in a lifetime - Great safari- varied and includes everything you should see. Three days in the Masai Mara were enriched by an amazing hot air balloon ride. Not cheap but worth the price. Naivasha with boat trip, Nakuru Lake, bike ride to Hell's Gate and in the Amboseli the proximity to elephant herds, lionesses and eating hyenas rounded off this safari nicely. Unfortunately, the tour started a bit unfortunate at the Giraffe Camp, the simple accommodation was a bit too simple, there were a lot of idle staff and the quality and quantity of the food deserved at most 1 star. The following accommodations met our expectations. Special thanks to our driver and guide Albert Koi, safe driver, knowledgeable guide, humorous, helpful, patient, punctual, always striving to meet the demands of all. It was nice to be out with him. Unfortunately, our well-functioning bus team was inaugurated on 4 April. Travel day separated due to a joining us- argentine group and should submit to the Argentinean dictates that day - a pity.

Great safari with Charo - We are a family of three who travelled to Kenya via Egypt. Booking the safari was straightforward and there were good options for the dates we had. We decided to upgrade some of the hotels to make sure we had a pool and good accommodation. This worked out well and we were happy with our stays. In particular, we loved the luxury tents at Amboseli. Our guide and driver was Charo. He was fantastic and he did a great job for us. We had a good size SUV/truck to ourselves and the roof popped up so we good see out. We could also charge devices. Charo was very friendly and also very knowledgeable about the animals we would see and he answered all our questions, including those from our 11 year-old. He was always punctual and felt very secure with him. He was accommodating and would stop places we needed to, like ATMs and grocery stores. Charo did a great job at finding all the animals. We saw the Big Five as well as many animals. He helped us to identify all the various birds we found on our travels as well. Given that this was the low season we were pretty lucky with the weather and we avoided a lot of crowds. I would strongly recommend this tour and Charo, in particular. He was fabulous!

Just as the name says “A Perfect Safari” for us - Our trip with Perfect Safaris was ….well all I can is for us it was perfect from beginning to end! We started with three nights in the Masai Mara with game drives each day, usually an early morning start when more of the animals and certainly the big cats are moving around. Next we travelled to Lake Nakuru for only the one night but with more game drives we saw lots of the elusive white Rhino 🦏 Hippos 🦛 and a huge gathering of pink flamingos 🦩 as well as a large collection of other bird life, giraffe 🦒 and elephants 🐘. Finally we travelled to Amboseli for two night and more extensive game drives and plenty of excellent animal sightings many at very close quarters 😀 The communication before our trip with George & Elizabeth the owners of this small very personal business was excellent and reassuring at each step of the way. What took our Safari experience to the next level is without doubt our driver and guide William. As a driver we felt safe in his vehicle even on roads that were often testing and difficult. As a guide William was outstanding friendly and professional at all times, always smiling and happy to pass on his vast knowledge and experience of the areas we visited and birds and animals we encountered on the way. Nothing was too much trouble and William was always enthusiastic to go the extra distance to ensure our experience was special and most memorable. A huge thank you to William, George and your staff. 😁

The Best Safari - This trip was AMAZING! George was our tour guide for 7 days. He made everything perfect for us and did an excellent job. I ask tons of questions and if he didn’t know, he found out for us. My friend and I (30 year old women from the US) traveled all through Kenya with George. We loved every minute and each day was better than the one before. I would recommend this trip to everyone who wants to see the beauty and wilds of Kenya. We saw tons of animals, planned personalized excursions (we like hiking so we went on several hikes with Masai guides because we were so close to the game parks) and felt safe in covid times. Every park we went to holds a special place in my trip memories- we even saw a cheetah hunt! Incredible- you should go today!

Kudos to Perfect Wilderness 7 day tour! - My adult daughter and I had a great weeklong safari with Perfect Wilderness! George Mumba was our guide and he took care of everything, from the time we were picked up at our hotel in Nairobi until dropoff back at the hotel. Mumba, aka George, is a teacher by education/training and has been a guide for a long time. It was evident from the beginning that teaching is his passion, and he answered all our questions including animals, ecology, history, tribes, and government. My daughter, a photographer, was able to get tons of close up pictures of all the animals, especially all of the baby animals present during our September timeframe. In addition to all the baby animals, the highlights included the wildebeest crossing in Masai Mara, the bike ride safari in Hell's Gate (parts of which Lion King are modeled after), the Masai village visit, and closeup large elephant herds and a lion/hyena pack standoff in Amboselli. I highly recommend Perfect Wilderness and George Mumba for your Kenyan safari!

7 day safari to MASAI MARA, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Amboselli national park - Thanks to Perfect Wilderness, we've had an enjoyable tour, well managed despite a vehicle breakdown and a flat tyre. We were met at the appointed times and escorted throughout the tour. The driver guides were generally happy to scout for animals and took us to places where they were spotted. In particular I'd like to mention Perfect Wilderness driver guides 'Black' Santa and Albert. Santa was informative, humorous and made our journey enjoyable. Albert managed to get us to see the animals at close quarters at Amboselli and was very helpful especially on the last day when we expressed a desire to do some shopping. To top it all, Director George Mumba, made it a point to meet us and say hello on our last day which added a personal touch! I wholeheartedly recommend this tour and Perfect Wilderness Tours And Travels. Arthur

Fantastic experience from start to finish! - We booked our 7 day trip with Perfect Wilderness through a travel agency in the US. Once they put us in touch with Perfect Wilderness, everything went very smoothly and was well organized. Lodging was very suitable, with AA Lodge in Amboseli stealing the show - top notch place for a budget resort. The first parts in Masai Mara and Nakuru were group safaris, which I believe are contracted out to other drivers with pop-top vans. Our drivers were great, especially Jack in Masai Mara- we saw all of the Big 5 in one day! The rest of the tour in Naivasha/Hell’s Gate and Amboseli was private with two EXCELLENT guides from Perfect Wilderness- Santa and Sammy. Both guys were absolutely first rate, very knowledgeable and friendly. We had great conversations about wildlife, Kenyan culture, and history. At Amboseli we swapped to a very nicely appointed Land Cruiser with all the amenities- comfy bucket seats, wifi, and charging power for our electronics. Highlights of the trip were spotting rare black rhinos in Masai Mara, biking through Hell’s Gate, and up-close encounters with lions and elephants with Kilimanjaro as a backdrop. We even saw two elephants mating- unforgettable experience!
