Overall a Average Safari
Overall, the experience was average. There are some important points that need improvement.
Negative aspects:
The main issue was the scheduling and travel times. According to the itinerary, on the first day we were supposed to arrive at Masai Mara around lunchtime and have a game drive in the afternoon. However, we only arrived at 4 PM, and the park closed at 6:30 PM.
On the third day, we travelled from Masai Mara to Amboseli Park, and the journey took much longer than expected. The proposal mentioned we would arrive around lunchtime, but we only got there at 6 PM, with the park closing at 7 PM.
As a result, on those days we barely had any time for safari activities, even though we paid the park entrance fees. At one point, we were even advised to go straight to the accommodation instead of entering the park, but the entrance fee would not have been refunded.
This was quite disappointing for us, as we were expecting plenty of time for game drives, but ended up spending too much time on the road instead.
About the organization:
Peter, who handled all the arrangements, always replied quickly to our messages, which we appreciated. However, at the same time, it often felt like he wasn’t fully attentive or dedicated to our questions. During the trip, he was not flexible when we raised concerns about the limited time we had in the parks, which added to our frustration.
Positive aspects:
Our driver and guide, Songe, was good. He really tried his best to make up for the lost time and to follow the itinerary as planned. As he mentioned, the people who design the itineraries are in the office and don’t really understand the reality of travelling on the ground.
The accommodations were also very good and matched our expectations. And, of course, the safari itself - the game drives - were fantastic. Our driver worked very hard to show us all the animals, and that made the experience truly memorable.

Kenya Safari in August 2025
We booked a 6-day, 5-night Kenya safari for August 2025. We compared multiple providers and ultimately chose a high-season safari in Africa.
Itinerary: two nights in Amboseli, one night in Lake Nakuru, and two nights in the Masai Mara.
On June 19th, we paid our deposit.
On June 23rd, we received our first contract update, changing our hotel in Lake Nakuru. Since there were many nearby hotels, I thought it was a good option.
On June 27th, we received our second contract update, also changing our hotel in the Masai Mara. The new hotel was significantly worse than our previous one (Google rating: 3.9 vs. 4.8) and the location wasn't great either.
On July 31st, 10 days before our departure, we received our third contract update, changing our hotel in Amboseli. It was a nightmare. The hotel was like a two-star hotel, and we didn't even have room for our luggage. The location was terrible, two hours from the park entrance, and the road was terrible. Compared to our original hotel, we had to drive an extra three hours to reach the park.
- Our flight arrived at 5:10 AM, but our driver arrived around 8 AM. Our first day's plan was to do an afternoon safari in Amboseli. We needed to get from the airport to the hotel, rest briefly there, and then head to the park. Remember my last comment about the location of the Amboseli hotel! That day was truly terrible day, full day drive and only 1 hour in the park.
- Our contract stated that in the Masai Mara, we would have an afternoon safari on our arrival day, a full-day safari, and a morning safari on our final day. However, we only had a two-day ticket, which allowing us to enter the park only two days. Also, given the hotel's location, our first afternoon safari would only be one or two hours, leaving us unable to enter the park on our final day. We had confirmed this with our driver from the start, and he said we could enter the park on our final day as long as we departed before 10 AM. If we had known this from the beginning, we would have stayed longer in Lake Nakuru (to get more sleep) and skipped the afternoon safari on our first day. We would have planned a longer safari on our final day, as we would have been returning to Nairobi hotel (not airport).
- Hotels play a crucial role in a Kenyan safari, and we changed all our hotels after we paid. But why three stars, and not the worst? Kenya is truly beautiful, and we felt safe upon our return.

It was a great time for the family.
The planning, interactions, support and the tour itself was top-notch. Although, Peak Season Safaris partnered with another agency in South Africa, the entire collaboration was seamless and smooth. Journey planning, the tours and the experience were all good.

Peter and Sebastian made a once in a lifetime experience come true!
Our recent trip with Peak Season Safari was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we landed, we were warmly welcomed by our coordinator, Peter, who ensured every detail was perfectly arranged. Our driver, Sebastian, was exceptional, navigating the landscapes with skill and knowledge that made our experience even more enriching.
We embarked on an unforgettable journey through iconic locations like Masai Mara, Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and the stunning Diani Beach. Each stop was more breathtaking than the last, providing us with incredibly picturesque views and unique experiences. The accommodations were impeccable—100% all-inclusive with incredible buffets that catered to every taste. The hospitality we received was truly five-star, making us feel right at home throughout our stay.
The wildlife encounters were perhaps the highlight of our adventure. We were lucky enough to see an array of animals up close, including lions, giraffes, monkeys, and cheetahs. Observing rhinoceroses, elephants, zebras, hippos, wildebeests, impalas, gazelles, and an impressive assortment of birds was mesmerizing. Each sighting brought joy and excitement, and we even helped pull other jeeps out of the mud, with Sebastian’s Land Cruiser ! We by far had the best safari jeep in the entire group of vehicles! Our jeep never got stuck ,a testament to the quality of vehicle among safari-goers.
One of the standout experiences was the wealth of knowledge we gained throughout the tour, enriching our understanding of wildlife and the regions we explored. We returned home eager to share stories and facts with friends and family, ensuring that they too could appreciate the beauty of Kenya.
The warmth of the people we encountered, from our guides to the lodge staff, added to the overall experience. Their friendliness and willingness to share their culture made our journey even more meaningful.
In conclusion, this was by far the best trip of our lives. It exceeded our expectations in every way, and we left with cherished memories and a deep appreciation for the wonders of nature. We highly recommend Peak Season Safari for anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure. Thank you, Peter and Sebastian, for making this tour the best ever!

Absolutely amazing experience.
Everything was perfect from start to finish and far exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Dennis, was extremely knowledgeable. He knows the National Parks inside out, and taught us so much about the wildlife. We would do another safari with Peak Season again in a heartbeat. Their communication was excellent, and they helped tailor a safari to our needs. 10 stars out of 5.

Once in a lifetime experience!
We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Peak Season Africa Safari and couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
Stephen handled all of the planning from start to finish and was excellent throughout. Every detail was thoughtfully organised, communication was clear, and the whole trip ran seamlessly. Our itinerary covered Nairobi, the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Hell’s Gate, Amboseli and finished perfectly with some relaxation time in Diani Beach – a great balance of wildlife, scenery and downtime.
Our game driver, Kevin, was equally outstanding. He was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife and landscapes, very personable, and made every game drive enjoyable and informative. His experience really showed, and we felt well looked after at all times.
Overall, this was a superbly planned safari and beach trip. We would happily recommend Kevin, Stephen, and Peak Season Africa Safari to anyone considering a safari in Kenya.

Very reliable
Wonderful Safari: very well organised.
Guide/ driver is excellent spotting animals from far away to show us and always in contact with others in the vicinity to know where to go looking for more, so we had the best animals’ photos shots we could ask for!
Landscape is breathtaking and driving through it with the Land Cruiser is adventurous but not uncomfortable even after hours on the trails. At the end of the day a very comfortable mattress awaits always for you in the best lodges with great selection of food!
All the personnel is very friendly and helpful!
Never had any problems!
