Full budget safari
Safari through 3 national parks (Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli) costing less than 800 dollars. Everything included in this experience: accommodation, food, water, entrance fees to the parks and travel distances, which are far away. The agency team spoke to me all the time to make sure everything was ok. The only negative point was with the first driver, who did not check the car properly, and we had to stop on the road to check the brakes. Furthermore, he drove irresponsibly, and while overtaking improperly, he tore the tire, so we had to change cars. Super Eagle immediately provided another one. The first car was also full of cockroaches, which shows that proper cleaning was not done. I emphasize that this was not under super eagle's control, and when informed she quickly resolved all issues. I highly recommend this company for a safari in Kenya.

Super Egagle Company in Kenya falls short of providing a satisfactory and reliable tour experience,
👎🏼 I strongly advise against booking with Super Eagle company in Kenya. My recent five-day tour experience with them left me incredibly disappointed with their service and overall performance.
Not only were their prices exorbitantly high compared to other tour operators, but I found out that fellow passengers paid just $50 more for a longer midrange tour, while I was stuck on a budget tour for almost the same cost!
The accommodation provided for the first two nights at the camp was absolutely atrocious - it was a terrible experience.
To make matters worse, on the fourth day, I was left stranded at the hotel with minimal information provided. Activities that I had paid for didn't align with the promised itinerary, leaving me feeling misled and frustrated. And on the 5th day, they didn't follow the itinerary either, and I had to wait at transfer center for over 4 hrs!
The tour driver, Maxwell, added to my discomfort by being unhelpful and pressuring me for excessive tips throughout the trip. It created a very unpleasant atmosphere.
In summary, I wholeheartedly discourage anyone from considering this tour company. Save yourself the trouble and explore other options for a more enjoyable and seamless experience elsewhere.

Provided exceptional communication, good service, great value for money, unwavering reliability,
Service: Good service with transport, the only thing required Land cruiser for off-road, (as they provide Toyota make 4x4 Hiace)
Communication: guides explain in detail during our game ride.
Value for Money: need to per-check the accommodation (arranging based on the package value)

Horrible Time Management
Throughout my journey, I have encountered horrible time management - punctuality issue. Day 1, I waited at the hotel at the assigned time but the driver came an hour later. After that, every day I got ready at the assemble time but it is usually half an hour later to be picked up. The worst is my last day, also waited for another hour when I was told to get ready at early morning. And I had to wait outdoor for the whole hour.
The safari experience was overall good and acceptable, but try imagining every morning you were on time, but you wasted 30 mins to an hour for waiting to be picked up, and which actually you could have sleep more with the time waiting, will you still feel good and give an excellent review?
It might be other passengers who cause the delay, but as of my knowledge, it’s not the case all the time. The driver himself made inaccurate predictions of time, and I don’t think that the distance between hotels are unpredictable if the driver is experienced or responsible.
I once even thought that Kenyan culture is being unpunctual by delaying every appointment at 30mins, but after I asked other tourists, they were picked up at the assemble time on time. Then I know that it’s not the culture, it’s the person.
Kindly take note on this. The safari is good, but this issue devalue the overall experience.

Pre tour service is good but I didnt feel the same during the tour
Hello,
I would like to start by saying that the people sitting in HO are providing good and accurate services.
Costing seems good too.
My major disheartening was service provided during the tour.
I feel the guides assigned to me were not so keen to make my experience memorable.
I did two national parks- Masai Mara and Amboseli.
During Masai Maara, I felt my guide was not giving us adequate information. His driving skills were amazing but he would not follow where mass people were going, I felt he wanted to look for animals on his own and the result was our spotting was less compared to other people in the park on the same days.
Coming to Amboseli, our guide was informative, but I had a feeling he gave us less of a safari time and rushing to the drop point than what was planned and charged to us by giving some excuse of a protest at the border. (Which we confirmed to be false, later on reaching the border)
While tipping is encouraged I didn’t feel the guides were good enough for the same. We did still tip one of the guide.
So I suggest please be very clear while planning itself and convey beforehand that itinerary to be followed.
Lastly , even after all of this I would still say Masai Maara is definitely a place to visit. Thank you
I have purposely refrained from using any names here.

The overall experience was fifty-fifty
Overall Rating: The overall travel experience was acceptable, but near the end of the trip, we realized there were communication misdirections and cost traps that led to many unnecessary expenses.
We trusted our guide completely, but compared to other guides, he really did let us down a bit
Main Issues:
1️⃣ Guide Replacement Without Prior Notice
* Our contracted guide, Wilson, was unexpectedly replaced with Alvin (no advance notice). While Alvin performed reasonably well later, this uncommunicated change felt disrespectful.
2️⃣ Excessive Cost Traps
* We were encouraged to join a "nature walk" (not disclosed as a paid activity upfront), which was of little value. Upon finishing the brief 20-minute walk, they demanded $30/person. After negotiation, we only paid $30 for the entire group.
* During the Masai Mara Safari, an on-site ranger was arranged to accompany us to see hippos and crocodiles, after which we were charged $10/person. Conversations with other tourists later confirmed this activity is typically free.
* Nakuru Crescent Island Hike: Besides the $20/person boat fee, we were charged an additional $20/person "island hiking fee". We later verified through social media and other travelers that the specific area we hiked in is free. Furthermore, we were rushed throughout the short (under 20 min) hike and not taken to the island center. The actual standard island hike costs $33, lasts over 40 minutes, and includes photo opportunities with animals in the center. (We were not informed of this option nor given a choice).
3️⃣ Poor Safari Timing Caused Itinerary Reduction
* Amboseli park tickets are valid for 24 hours. Due to the guide's incorrect scheduling of the Safari time (done without consultation), our contractually agreed-upon final day Morning Safari was canceled. They knew how to schedule correctly to allow us an extra Safari, but we were neither consulted nor given options. Our complaint to the office received no reasonable response.
4️⃣ Unprofessional Guide Conduct
* On the last day, we paid $180 to extend the jeep hire. We confirmed an itinerary (Giraffe Centre -> Market -> Restaurant - guide specified). We indicated we'd decide on the restaurant that day. Midway through the planned activities, we requested to change restaurants, offering 2-3 options within the distance range the guide himself had suggested, but he refused them all. While searching for a new restaurant (which took less than 15 minutes), the guide decided we were taking too long. Without any discussion, he abruptly drove us directly to the airport. We arrived around 3 PM without having lunch/dinner and had to wait 4 hours before we could even enter the terminal for security and food.
Highlights:
✅ Guide Alvin was proactive in tracking animals: He ensured close-up sightings of most animals (we saw nearly everything except a leopard).
✅ During Safaris, the guide actively shared knowledge about animals and nature, enriching the overall experience.
✅ Alvin was exceptionally personable — assisting with luggage daily and even buying us Fruits. We tipped him generously with daily gifts,
✅ developing a friendly rapport that made the later conflict particularly disheartening, In Nakuru, they upgraded us to single rooms (one each), and in Amboseli, they moved us to a better camp
Conclusion: While the wildlife viewing experience met expectations, issues with chaotic management, opaque pricing, and guide negligence were significant. We advise exercising caution when choosing this operator.

Amazing Safari with Super Eagle Travel & Tour
We are a group of 14 friends from Malaysia who had the privilege of visiting Kenya to witness the Great Migration, and our experience with Super Eagle Travel & Tour was simply unforgettable. From the very beginning, Bildad coordinated the entire trip and logistics with excellent communication, patience, and attention to detail. Everything—from planning routes to balancing time between activities—was well thought out and executed seamlessly.
We were thrilled to see 4 of the Big Five—lions, buffaloes, elephants, and rhinoceros. Although we missed the elusive leopard, we remain hopeful to spot one on our continuing adventure in Tanzania! In Masai Mara, we also witnessed countless wildebeest and zebras crossing the Mara River, an awe-inspiring scene we had only ever seen on television before.
Our driver-guides in Kenya, Anthony and Francis, deserve special credit. They not only kept us safe and punctual between destinations but also went the extra mile to help us spot wildlife others might have easily missed. They were incredibly knowledgeable about animals, birds, landscapes, and the Maasai culture, and they shared this with us in a way that made the journey so much more meaningful.
All of us captured these unforgettable moments with just our mobile phones—proving that with experienced guides like Anthony and Francis, you don’t need sophisticated cameras to get close, clear, and memorable wildlife sightings.
This was not just a safari—it was a journey filled with adventure, learning, culture, and joy. On behalf of our entire group, we extend our deepest appreciation to Super Eagle Travel & Tour, Bildad, and especially Anthony and Francis for creating such a meaningful and memorable experience of Kenya.
We highly recommend Super Eagle Travel & Tour to anyone wishing to discover the beauty of Africa. We came as visitors but left with hearts full of admiration and gratitude.

Excellent budget tour!
As a solo woman traveler, I was very picky when selecting my safari and ended up going with Super Eagles because of the great price for the Kenya/Tanzania combo safari and the great reviews. Like other reviewers have noted, Bildad was extremely professional and helpful in planning the safari and communication was clear and prompt both during and before my trip.
The safaris in both countries were incredible. Rhino in Kenya and Mike in Tanzania were both amazing guides! We had long days in the car and they were both such pros - we saw all of the big five and so much more. We did SO many game drives, I felt like I 100% got my money's worth there.
The cars were comfortable and well-maintained and it was nice to meet fellow travelers on the shared safari in Tanzania. It actually ended up being just me in Kenya so I got a private safari for a few days! The lodging I had was two nights camping, two nights glamping and two nights hotel in Arusha. Camping among wild lions was unforgettable, and the glamping camp Nyati in Kenya was very nice. The food was all included and was very good African home cooking. A few nights I was able to buy local beer, which was cool!
Logistics were overall good, especially Bildad arranging someone local to help me at the land border crossing both times. It was super smooth however please note they didn't take card for the Tanzania visa - only cash ($100 if you're American) so have that with you. This part is always the most nerve-wracking solo but everyone I encountered was helpful and make me feel comfortable, which I appreciate.
A few notes of feedback that don't take away from my high rating:
- It might be helpful to have some kind of FAQ material to give once people book to know what to pack and what to expect. For example, my safari truck in Tanzania couldn't accommodate large bags and luckily I didn't bring one, but I almost did.
- A few times, transportation was quite late or not what I expected. I had to give one driver directions to my hotel and another was two hours late and told me he didn't know I was going to the airport. Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things but traveling alone I like to feel confident in my transport.
- I asked Bildad about bringing USD vs. local currency and he said USD was fine along with my credit card. Everywhere in Kenya took card, but in Tanzania, I wished I had changed some shillings. I ended up getting my hotel to give me like $20 worth. It's much cheaper to buy things in cash in shillings and fewer places take card. Tips in USD were fine (tip well!!!) except for the guy who helped me across the border at Namanga asked for shillings, which I didn't have, so he took USD.
