Great experience and amazing nature. Communication could be a bit better.
We had a very satisfactory experience during our 8 day tour that included Masaai Mara, Tangarire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. The safaris were amazing. Although we opted for the budget tour, we were surprised a few times with upgrates in our accomodation. Food will not be a highlight of this trip as it's not usually not very varied.
The guides drove us around the parks and they make a huge effort to show us all the animals. They would always stop if you ask for and wait for you to take pictures. However, they not always provide a lot of information about the animals all the organizational details. They mainly focus on driving and show us the animals.
In general the tour was very well organized and everything worked out, but the communication could be a bit better. Bienvenido mixes a couple of other tour operators, which was not clear to us, so a few times we didn't fully know where to go or who to follow. We also didn't have enough information of the logistics to move around and we had some last minute changes, although we understand that it's not easy to put such a trip together. We have to say though that Kennedy answered all of our emails and messages straight away and was very helpful.

Eye-opening
We went on a 3-day safari from Nairobi to Amboseli and Tsavo, to finish off in Diani. What an unforgettable adventure it was!!! Starting with the unique nature and the absolute beauty of the wildlife, and finishing with the terrific guide Nico who’s experience, sense of humour and kindness greatly facilitated our satisfaction, and ended up as a top highlight of our trip to Kenya. Benvenido was always very responsive, facilitating and super pleasant to deal with, so thank you for that! If we ever to go back again, it must be with you and Nico! Thanks so much:)

We were able to have a great safari without breaking the bank
We had a great experience with this company with the 6-day Masai Mara Lake Nakuru Amboseli Safari. We chose the mid-range accommodation option and were blown away by the quality of accommodation for the price we paid. They picked us up from Nairobi and did the Masai mara the first. It was amazing. possibly the #1 option for safari and it is the only park in Kenya where they allow off-roading which allows us to be right next to the animals. The Lion population is very high in this park and we saw some amazing encounters. We also saw Baffalo elephants and ostrich and Giraffe (Masai Giraffe). There is a wide variety of animals in this park including Crocodiles and Hippos right next to Kenya Tanzania border in the Mara River. Next, we headed out to Lake Nakuru and there we saw the tree-climbing lions of Lake Nakuru large numbers of Baboons and Black Rhino also the pink flamingoes of lake Nakuru. Next, we had a boat tour of Lake Navisha on the way which was optional. We are glad we took it as we saw the Fishing eagles perform and large groups of hippos out of the water. Next, we headed to Lake Amboselli and man what a backdrop to those majestic elephants in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro. This park is dominated by Amboselli Elephant s and it is hard to see any of the predators. The meeting with the Masai people was also a highlight of this tour. They used Vans instead of land cruisers for the tour and they were more than adequate.
We stayed in the following hotels - Jambo Mara (Masai Mara) Buhara Zenoni (Nakuru) and AA Lodge in Amboselli, They were all spectacular. The one negative was there was the safari lunches which were always Chicken a sandwich and a banana. It is understandable though it would have been difficult to pack anything else. The Guides/ drivers we had Derick and Edward were very good. Make sure you get a good knowledgeable guide as that is 90% of the enjoyment of the safari.
It was definitely a Bucket List item for us and most definitely the best vacation we ever had. Jambo Kenya,

Essential safari experience for affordable price
This was the best affordable offer we could find for a budget safari tour for 3 days and it went very well. We chose to stay at another hotel located nearby to the one normally used for this tour (booked separately, and the accommodation cost of the lodge normally used in this tour was deduced from the price). We saw lots of animals (although the great migration was already over by begin October). After the tour we planned to go to lake Naivasha, not to Nairobi. Much to our surprise (we were planning to go there by ourselves from Mai-Mahiu stop), the agency arranged for us to join a separate transfer with another group, who brought us to our next point so that we did not need to think how to get there by ourselves. At no extra cost. Naivasha is located on the way to Nakuru, another safari destination, so it was convenient. All negotiations with the agency went smoothly in watsapp and email. They communicate well and reply fast. So it is easy to customize the tour to large extent, if needed. Good value for money.

Highly recommended, great prices, even better experiences!!!
Found this operator through the internet. I trusted them with my deposit and for my entire safari trip, and they surely did not disappoint. Purity assisted me all throughout, she answered any questions I may have maximum 1 working day from when I sent it. They are very responsive and helpful. My flight got delayed, so I consequently was chasing after time in order to make it to my safari, but they were very understanding and made sure I got to my safari vehicle! I found their rates to be one of the best in Kenya, so I went for them. My safari all in all went perfectly fine: experienced drivers, good food, nice accommodations, great coordination! I highly recommend Bienvenido :D

Exceptional Service and Unforgettable Memories with Bienvenido a Ken
I had an incredible experience with Bienvenido a Kenya Safari Tours, and I wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for their outstanding service. Our guide, Martin, was truly exceptional. He demonstrated an immense passion for his job and went above and beyond to ensure we had the best wildlife experience possible. Martin's expertise and enthusiasm in locating various animals were truly remarkable, and his knowledge of the Kenyan wilderness added an extra layer of excitement to our safari adventure.
I would also like to extend my gratitude to Purity, who handled our communication through WhatsApp. She was incredibly friendly and always available to assist us with any queries or concerns we had. Her prompt and helpful responses made us feel valued and well taken care of throughout our trip.
Overall, I highly recommend Bienvenido a Kenya Safari Tours to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. The exceptional service provided by Martin, along with the warm and efficient assistance from Purity, made our experience unforgettable. We will definitely be returning for another adventure with them in the future.

Great experience. Thank you Kingoo!
I recently went on a private tour with Bienvenido Kenya Tours and Safaris along with two other people, and I must say it was an incredible experience. From start to finish, the team at Bienvenido Kenya Tours and Safaris were professional, knowledgeable, and made sure that we had an unforgettable time.
The customization of our tour was seamless, and the team worked with us to create an itinerary that perfectly suited our interests.
The highlight of the tour was definitely the safari experience. Our knowledgeable and friendly guide “Kingoo” who was also our driver, took us to some of the most beautiful wildlife reserves in the country, and we were able to see the incredible animals up close. We saw lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and many more. Our guide had an incredible wealth of knowledge about the animals and their behaviors, which made the experience even more engaging.
The team at Bienvenido Kenya Tours and Safaris arranged for us the accommodation in nice places.

Perfect organized 7 days safari in Kenya
We, me and my wife, spent a wonderful 7 days safari with Bienvenido from Nairobi hotel to Nairobi Airport, including Masai Mara, Lakes Nakuru and Naivasha, Hell Gates National Park and finaly Amboseli with view of Kilimanjaro. Everything was absolutely perfect. It was a shared mid-range cathegory tour.
Prepayment was easy and safe. Pick-up in the hotel was ponctual. Felix, our driver and guide, was excellent. Well informative and kind. The car was clean every morning despite the road not being easy at all.
Accommodations were also good, in Jumbo Mara Lodge, Waterbuck and Masada hotels, and AA Lodge in Amboseli, thanks. Meals were also corrects including the lunch boxes.
I recommend from my heart this Bienvenido Kenya Tours and Safaris Agency.

A beautiful Safari Experience with Bienvenido
We did a 3 day Mid-Luxury Safari tour that started from Nairobi and ended in Mombasa passing through Amboseli National Park and Taita Hills where we spent one night in each national park. It was very well organized by Bienvenido team. Everything was smooth and as promised, and the price was very reasonable for the service we got. Purity assisted us with the booking and payment process, and our driver/guide (David) was super professional, friendly, funny, and very nice with our children, and he went out of his way to make sure we see as many animals as possible during the safari. In terms of the 2 national parks that we visited, Amboseli was the better one with many more wildlife. Taita Hills is beautiful, but there aren't as much animals or variety of species. Our next safari trip will definitely be with Bienvenido.
