Masai Mara/Serengeti Safari and Lake Elementaita Tour with My 11 Year Old

I found this excellent tour company online based on strong reviews and was not disappointed. Edward runs an extremely professional and efficient operation and operates with the highest integrity. Every part of our trip ran like clockwork from transfers to our excellent guides. While the company is called "Budget," Edward was happy to provide custom services, upgrades and recommendations when we wanted them, though he was also very respectful of my attempts to economize where we could. Edward also met us in Nairobi both before and after the trip for a nice personal touch. Based on our interests, he put together a great itinerary that combined game drives, activities and sightseeing. He's very knowledgeable about Kenya, as well as other popular tours in Tanzania and Rwanda. Edward was great on communication and exchanged dozens of emails with me over the past year, from when I first started planning. My 11 year old son has always had an interest in animals and the safari experience truly enchanted him. Eleven is a great age for safari because he could fully participate in wildlife spotting and could handle the longer game drives. He also loved the tented camps. We did game drives in both Masai Mara and Serengeti and got to see the migration. While getting to the Serengeti was a challenge, it was worth it to see so many lions. We loved watching the lionesses hunt! After the game drives, we arranged to rest and see some other areas. Edward recommended the Lake Elementaita area 2-4 hours north of Nairobi depending on traffic. From our lovely resort hotel with pool (Pelican Lodge), we were easily able to enjoy horseback riding around Lake Elementaita (flamingos!), a boat ride on Lake Naivasha (great bird watching) and a surprise biking safari and beautiful gorge hike/scramble in Hell's Gate National Park. It was also good to have some activities for my son after a week of game drives. I highly recommend Edward's company and exploring more of Kenya!

Six Days of Wild Discovery and Refined Comfort
Our African expedition was nothing short of extraordinary. Traversing the savannah felt like stepping into a cinematic masterpiece—a constant sense of déjà vu brought to life by the magical landscapes. Beyond the scenery, the warmth of the people provided a profound window into the authenticity of African culture. Our tour operator planned our six-day itinerary with masterly precision, ensuring each day surpassed the last. Thanks to our expert guide, we successfully tracked both the 'Big Five' and the 'Ugly Five,' offering us an intimate and raw connection with nature. From the shores of Naivasha and Nakuru to the plains of the Maasai Mara and the energy of Nairobi, we were treated with delicious cuisine and luxurious comfort. Navigating through Land Cruiser truly elevated our game drive experience. At last hot air balloon safari was a breathtaking sunrise experience followed by a champagne breakfast in the heart of the wild.

Great personalized service and value with trusted staff and reliable partners
We just got home from a 11 day safari thru Kenya and Tanzania arranged by Budget Africa Safaris. This was our second safari with Budget Africa Safaris (2016 & 2019). This time we took other family members. GREAT TRIP. The Budget Africa staff and management went well out of their way to make our trip as comfortable and efficient as possible at a reasonable cost. Edward, the manager, took a personal interest in tailoring our safaris to meet our needs and budget, He met us on arrival and departure, he helped with currency conversion, joined us for dinner on departure and advised on a number of extras during our trips. Notable —this included arranging the partnering up with a great Tanzania Safari operator, Tambare Safaris(sp?) for the Tanzania portion of our trip. Peter, our guide on our first trip and who we requested on our second safari, is fantastic. He knows the animals, he loves his country and culture. He was too regularly went well out of his way to be personable, helpful including helping us go thru the Kenya-Tanzania border crossing. It also to be noted that Peter is very well respected by the other guides, lodge and park staff so they too went out of their way to help Peter make our two trips very memorable. Michael, Peter’s nephew, and another Budget Africa driver, drove us around Nairobi a couple of times. Like his uncle, Michael is VERY good, knows the roads, has a great sense of humor and has great language and emotional intelligence skills. In short, we heartily recommend Budget Africa!

A Dream come true for a tricky customised, very short stay at minimal costs and maximum input
I cannot commend Edward and his partners more! They have given me what no other well known travel agency offered - namely a short 6 day customised tour visiting both highlights in Kenya and Tanzania. Other agents only dealt with their own country and none offered a short time like mine. It was extremely cost effective for the distances travelled, the trip was sooooo enjoyable and the service was excellent. For me it was a dream come true and I can almost guarantee that anyone else using them will not be disappointed.
