If You Want The Best Safari
5/5

Initially I thought the 14 day safari trip was a bit expensive, but in the end I got much more than I expected. My guide, Sam, with Samson's Safaris was the best. The best at spotting animals, at anticipating where the animals would move to, at ensuring I never had to anything for myself and that I was always comfortable both in the safari vehicle and at the hotels. He was a good, safe driver which is very important in most of the game parks. And he was just a nice guy, with a subtle sense of humor. We saw so many animals, often up close and personal, at virtually every game park we visited. Exactly what you want on safari.
The hotels were excellent, at least 4 star in my opinion. But my favorite accomodations were at Mtito Mara Safari Lodge which was a small lodge with 10 luxury tents on a small river with hippos in it. Sopa Lodge at Samburu was also absolutely lovely. The food at the hotels varied but there was always something good to eat and service was always excellent.
14 days may be a bit long for a single trip of safaris, but Samson's Safaris really delivered.

5/5

The entire trip, from the moment I left to the moment I returned was incredible. Pick up from airport was smooth, transfer to a wonderful hotel, and the then the transfer to the flight Massai Mara could not have been easier. I stayed at Surani Eagle View and it was perfection. Loved every bit of it, and many thanks to Stacey for working so diligently with me to make it the perfect trip. Will do it again soon, and will use Samson’s for all of my travels in the region. Thank you to everyone who took part in making this a once in a lifetime adventure. 5 stars!!!

Professional staff with exceptional customer service.
5/5

Our visit to The Nairobi National Park, with a few friends, last month, using Samsons Safaris, was simply awesome . They picked us on time using their safari Land Cruisers, the cost was very friendly, the guides literally gave us a brief history of all the animals we encountered during the tour. Their patience was out of this world, they took time to understand the kind of experience we were expecting and delivered beyond our expectations. It was like we were visiting the park for the first time, considering all of us had visited a couple of times before. Water was also provided for us. To be honest, the best thing about choosing Samsons Safaris, over other tour services, is its customer service.
