Wonderful, Ethical Company
Blue Lilac is amazing. They built a custom trip for me based on my goals. I visited national parks in Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda and saw wildlife closer than I ever imagined, to include the Big 5 and mountain gorillas and chimpanzees. The guides were wonderful, the hotels were fantastic, and the food was delicious. My entire trip was seamless, which is incredible given that I chose overland travel and they coordinated across countries with different languages and customs. This trip far exceeded my expectations. Thank you very much to Edna and her team for a dream come true trip that I will never forget.

Blue Lilac made our safari unforgettable, great planning, thoughtful details and incredible moments
Our safari with Blue Lilac exceeded every expectation! Communication was smooth and prompt from the start, the service and attention to detail were outstanding and the hotels offered perfect locations and excellent value, great meals and service. Our guide Teddy was very knowledgeable, friendly and made every game drive unforgettable. Edward and Edna were incredible reliable, accommodating and truly dedicated to making our trip special. Every moment felt personalized and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! This is a trip we will always remember.. Asante sana, Blue Lilac team!

Helpful
I started planning my dream trip to Africa a year ago and was so confused by all the different things to do and places to see and how to coordinate it all. A friend got me in contact with Blue Lilac in February, and having never worked with a tour company before I thought that it would probably be too much and not worth…I was way wrong! I did a side by side analysis of their quote and what it would take to do things myself (but obviously not as good or thorough as I don’t have their knowledge). And and it was almost the same price for me to do it that way. So point for them…they keep it affordable. Next they really worked one on one with me to make the trip what I really wanted and dreamed about. Another point for them….easy to work with. Next I always had A LOT of questions as I was preparing for this trip. Edna at Blue Lilac was always quick to reply, and so helpful. She was even able to help when I was nervous that my Tanzania visa wasn’t going to come in time. Two more points for over the top help! Packing lists, lists of things to prepare, you name it, they helped out. Next came the trip itself. Blue lilac put together my dream vacation and the transfers, guides, accommodations, EVERYTHING exceeded our expectations. Our family consists of me, my husband and 3 kids ages 10,13 and 15. They planned the perfect trip the kept every one of us engaged and happy. 5 points for them. The friendly service and personal touches have won us over and made us feel like friends and family. I would definitely use them for more vacations. Blue Lilac Tours was amazing!

Very warm and welcoming and very insight sharing during the entire safari.
I very much enjoyed our safari to the Nairobi national park. The tour guide took us to all the spots where we could spot wildlife and was always sharing insights on the wildlife- I left the safari more relaxed and more knowledgeable.

Magical experience in the heart of Nairobi’s National Park
I did a morning safari with Blue Lilac Tours and it was one of the highlights of my trip to Kenya. Edna, the coordinator, was incredibly responsive and helped us plan everything around our afternoon flight, timing was spot on. Our guide, Teddy, made the experience unforgettable. He was kind, knowledgeable, and clearly loves what he does.
We were lucky to see three of the Big Five (rhino, buffalo, and lion), and many more, and watching such incredible wildlife just meters away from us, so close, was something magical I’ll never forget. The contrast of nature and city skyline also made the safari even more surreal.
After the safari, we also visited the Giraffe Center, which was the perfect way to end the experience, getting up close and feeding the Rothschild giraffes was both exciting and touching. They are adorable!
The whole experience was smooth, exciting, and thoughtfully organized. I’d absolutely recommend Blue Lilac to anyone visiting Nairobi.
