Professional tour operator with a lot of knowledge of wild life and open mindset..
In april 2026 we (group of three) went on an 10day safari trip to Masai Mara (4day inside) and lake Nakura (4day) with African Skimmer. Our guide Nick was amazing, he is an expert in spotting wild life. Besides spotting the big wild life, Nick has an expert eye for smaller animals and birds. For us, it was a huge added value that bird watching was also part off the safaris. When a bird is flying in front of the car Nick directly knows what it is. When we were traveling for a place to another place, Nick told us a lot of stuff from cultural facts to nature facts to background differences. Nick has a very chill mindset and the communication is very clear. You notice that Nick has a lot of experience in the field, that gives a really safe feeling. Nick gives estimate time scales that are always right. Thanks Nick, we enjoyed it really much. 100% sure that we would go on another trip with Nick.

Nick’s passion and knowledge creates a magical experience!
The experience Nick provided was truly amazing. The care and attention he put into ensuring our group had the best possible experience was exceptional. We were given incredible opportunities to observe wildlife up close in their natural habitat, while also having the time to simply sit back and take in the beauty of our surroundings.
Nick's knowledge, professionalism, and dedication made this safari unforgettable. I would highly recommend Nick and his team to anyone looking for an outstanding safari experience. They go above and beyond to create memories that will last a lifetime.
Nick, our amazing guide with exceptional intuition, care and knowledge
Our guide Nick was a big part of our “Safari journey”, caring, trustworthy and so much fun. He found every animal the same day we requested one, wow! We saw amazing sites right at roadside, doesn’t get any better! Thank you Nick for trying to make the rough road travel less painful for me.

Personal and pleasant contact from start to finish!
Personal and pleasant service from start to finish, with attention paid to every detail. The highlight was the safari, with Roah as our guide. African Skimmer Safaris is an absolute recommendation, and for us, definitely an experience worth repeating. Many thanks to Nick and the team!

Amazing!!! Nick is very knowledgeable, always scouting for animals, excellent driver.
This was a trip of a lifetime. My husband and I celebrated our 45 th anniversary with Nick and our new friends. We asked to see lions, and Nick found them. Watched the elephants take morning walk in front of Mt Kilamojaro. So incredibly close to all the wild animals in their natural habitats. We would definitely do this trip again!!!

Excellent from the meeting at the airport and always on time.Very warm reception
Our visit to Kenya was really a fantastic one with African Skimmer Safaris. We were met by one very kind and informative safari guide "Nick" he was so polite and briefed us every morning and evening and therefore making us very ready of what to expect which made it so easy for us psychologically. The safari was way beyond our expectation with great sightings of the big game. Being interested in almost everything in terms of fauna and flora, Nick came in handy as he was so good in identifying a lot of bird species and a lot of wonderful road side flowers and trees in the areas we visited. The land of big cats was so fruitful as we had a whole pride of lions,13 members one evening on the hunt. He really offered a lot of information about the history and the way of life of different communities in Kenya. We surely look forward to having another safari in Kenya and cannot hesitate to recommend African Skimmer Safaris to any potential traveler planning to visit Kenya and east Africa as a whole.

Wonderful safari in a private vehicle at good price
I did the safari when I known little about Kenya. But I only needed to give expectation and timing then they shorly designed the great program. Knowlege about conservation and nature protection is advantage of the tour operator as I you really learn about the wild life. Up to now, it was one of my most memorable trips

Overall I was very impressed by the service from African Skimmer Safaris. Nick is very educated about all of the wildlife and areas that you will be visiting, he is very friendly, and one of the best drivers on the planet. Taking a safari in Kenya is an experience not to be missed, with unforgettable sights of diverse wildlife and culture.
