Odyssey Safaris

Amazing trip! A++++ guide, vehicles, accommodations! Everything was TOTL (Top Of The Line)!!

Excellant. All questions answered, expectations were met and beyond. Mark is great to work with and Erastis is a top notch guide, always trying to satisfy what we wanted to see. Accommodations were wonderful.

Superior to Other Safari Companies

I would recommend Odyssey Safaris to anyone looking to take a safari. The trip was amazing. From the moment we landed, everything was taken care of for us. The person that picked us up from the airport was our guide for the entire tour which really helps you feel comfortable and not like you are being passed from guide to guide. I cannot understate the importance of going on a safari in the right vehicle (which would never have passed through my mind prior to this trip). Odyssey uses Land Rovers, many other companies use what looks like a volkswagon minivan. We saw twice on our trip these types of vehicles stuck in the rough terrain - one for several hours. The land rover is the ONLY vehicle to travel in on this type of terrain. James was our guide and I would highly recommend him ... especially for younger/middle aged people who can handle a faster pace. My friend and I are in our 30's and James' style suited us perfectly. He let us determine how much ground we wanted to cover in a day and if we wanted to add anything onto our trip (not pushy at all, but not such a slow pace that we felt we were missing things). The accomodations were far beyond our expectations - very clean, good food, large bathrooms, hardwood floors, the list goes on and on).

Great experience

We went for our first Kenya Safari trip in February 2014. Although it was not the right timing for the migration, we got to see a lot more than we expected. The trip was well planned out and arranged. Well done, Odyssey Safari.

They took care of all the details. I didn't need to worry about anything and all the tour guides and tour coordinators I encountered while there were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and very concerned with our health, safety, and enjoyment of the safari. I would book another safari with them.

Amazing trip with Odyssey Safari.

Jambo. Amazing trip with Odyssey Safari. Right from the planning process, working with Lucy and Mark, to our excellent guide Erastus. They were always available to address any question via email, Whatsapp, phone. I felt very comfortable and safe. The staff at every hotel were so genuinely full of joy and we got great service. The hotels were outstanding, and the food was excellent with so many vegetarian options. The safari was unforgettable. Erastus spotted every animal, bird, wildlife. Unfortunately, we didn't see black rhino or river crossing. Hopefully next time. I would highly recommend Odyssey Safari and make sure you get Erastus as your guide. Entire trip was very well executed from the schedule to the jeep to the accommodations and the safari. Asante Odyssey Safari.

Trip of a Lifetime

From the moment we started planning this trip, Odyssey Safari has gone above and beyond. Lucy was our coordinator and she effectively and efficiently managed all our questions, our last minute changes to the itinerary and built us the Safari of our dreams. They are prompt, professional and very well organized. No detail was missed. The itinerary was perfect, Lucy made sure that we saw everything we were hoping to see. The accommodations were next level, beautiful resorts, kind people, delicious food and all the amenities we could dream of. Our guides, Raymond and Nixon were the most knowledgeable, fun, and exciting men. They kept the vehicle clean, provided us with cold water, binoculars, plenty of restroom stops and a truly spectacular tour. The amount of animal and area knowledge was incredible and both Raymond and Nixon provided us with information we never knew. We can’t say enough about Raymond and Nixon, they will forever be part of our family and we love them. Thank you to all who made our dream trip to Africa come true!!!

The most amazing experience we have ever been on!

Wow, just wow! We are coming back from a 2 week safari with Charles, the most amazing safari guide! We nicknamed him the GOAT (Greatest of All Time) because he really is so top notch! My eight year old daughter just adored him (in fact we all did) and we are so thankful for his kindness ❤

Odyssey Safaris was perfection to work with and let us adjust our itinerary as we see fit. We saw SO much of Kenya and are recommending Odyssey to everyone we know. This was by far the best trip we have ever been on - Amazing!

Odyssey Safaris made my Bucket List Trip dreams come true! HIGHLY recommend!

I am forever changed from my Double Nickel Birthday Safari in Kenya. I went solo and I’m soooo glad I did. Don’t be afraid to travel solo! It’s everything!! I cannot thank https://www.odysseysafaris.com enough for making my dream trip come true! The attention to detail, consistent communication, and VIP treatment was unmatched! Eliud Mwai, one of the owners, came to meet me personally to discuss my itinerary and ensure everything was meeting my standards. My guide-driver Charles Wahinga is near and dear to my heart! We spent every day together for a week and my trip would not have been as special without his kindness, passion for the land, people, wildlife and culture, without his hilarious sense of humor, openness, and exceptional skills! His passion for safari was contagious. I will forever call him Friend… and Kihingo! The areas they proposed, Nairobi, Lake Naivasha, Nakuru, and Masai Mara were expertly chosen and timed, based on what I expressed that I was looking for out of this trip. My lodging was top notch and my safety and comfort were always paramount. My bucket list trip was worth every penny and then some! I stayed at The Safari Hotel and Casino in Nairobi city. It was cool, but not my favorite in the list. In Naivasha, Sopa Lodge blew me away because the animals walk freely amongst the guest. I loved the intimacy of that! Food was off the chain too. In Nakuru, I stayed at the very high end lodging called The Cliff, an andBeyond property. The lodging and views were stunning! They only have 10 glamorous tents on the cliff top property, so the personal attention was on point! In the Masai Mara, I stayed at another andBeyond property called Kichwa Tembo. The Masai Warriors from the local village make regular visits there and welcome you with Masai dance performances. The food at every location was delicious and fresh, though I did get Travelers Gut my first day in Kenya. Thankfully, Mantazuma’s Revenge only lasted two days. It’s very likely you will get it, so plan for it with Imodium! I spread my Mom’s ashes at the base of a tree in the Motherland. She would be pleased to rest in this most majestic place. If you’re contemplating a Kenya visit, don’t hesitate. It was life changing!

Amazing!

My entire experience with Odyssey Safaris was amazing! They did a great job of organizing the trip and making it an unforgettable time. My driver David was especially great during the safari portion of the trip. During the hike of Mount Kenya our guides were phenomenal especially Kim, Sammi, and Bonnie

Service is swift & effective

The team exceeded our expectations! Very knowledgeable about the places they take you to as well as the animals. Very friendly, professional and transparent. Hands down the best that made our trip memorable. Keep it up
