Excellent and friendly driver / guide

We had John as our driver and guide for the week. He was extremely friendly, very helpful, and took us all over the area we were in. He did a great job driving and was very kind and helpful in teaching us some local customs, language, and driving around the community. We are so thankful for John's excellent service. We would definitely use him again.

Once-in-a-lifetime experience

We had an absolutely incredible safari experience with African Hagyko Safaris in Kenya, and a huge part of it was thanks to our amazing guide - Harrison 👏 From the very beginning, it was clear that he is a true professional who genuinely loves what he does. His English was excellent, which made communication easy and enjoyable, and he shared so much knowledge with us throughout the trip. Harrison is also an extremely experienced and skilled driver — every journey was smooth, comfortable, and felt effortless. Even long drives passed quickly because he made them so engaging and pleasant. Thanks to his expertise and sharp eye, we were able to see an incredible number of animals during our safari — far more than we ever expected. Harrison knew exactly where to go and when, and his deep understanding of animal behavior allowed us to witness truly special moments. He explained fascinating facts about the wildlife, their habits, and their interactions, which made the whole experience even more meaningful and immersive. What we especially appreciated was that Harrison always gave us enough time to enjoy each sighting — to observe, take photos, and even watch hunting scenes without feeling rushed. We are beyond satisfied with this safari and the level of service we received — it exceeded all our expectations. We will absolutely come back again and will recommend this company to all of our friends without hesitation. This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, delivered with exceptional professionalism and care 🔥

An Incredible Adventure

This is my 2nd Safari with African Hagyko Safaris Ltd. Harrison was our guide for the game drives. He is very friendly and knowledgeable and was happy to answer all of our questions. Next year I will return again to Kenya and go on another safari with Harrison as our guide.

Incredible, Once in a Lifetime Experience

I've been to 55 countries and this is hands down one of the best experiences I've had. Harrison is an amazing driver. He is friendly, knowledgeable on all things Kenya, animals and safari. This is the second time we have done a safari with Harrison and both times were amazing. He knows the best spots to find animals and is well respected by the camps and other guides who provide good information on where to find the best spots. You won't regret booking a safari experience and when you do, request Harrison!

Wow! My experience with African Hagyko Safaris was first class in every way!

My wife and I were very pleased with Harrison and African Hagyko Safaris. Harrison was an amazing host and guide. His knowledge about the animals was extensive and he knew right where to take us. His hospitality and attention to detail was first class. I highly recommend this company!

The BEST trip ever! Thank you African Hagyko Safari!

From start to finish our experience was fabulous! Once in touch with Bernard, we easily communicated via WhatsApp to arrange our trip, he was never pushy and suggested the best options to us. He also helped us with other aspects of our Kenya trip to make sure we had the best experience even before we stayed our Safari. The Safari itself was perfect! Our driver Wachira is unbelievably knowledgeable about the parks and where to find the animals, we learnt so much from him. We found that we saw a lot more animals than others from alternative companies. Wachira ensured we were always comfortable and well catered for. It was a genuine pleasure to spend a week on safari with him! Don’t hesitate to book your safari with African Hagyko, you’ll not regret your experience!! 🤗

Unforgettable trip with Harrison

Safari was fantastic - we felt very well taken care of, the car was very comfy and our great ranger, Harrison, had the 6th sense with the animals and was great trip companion. We saw amazing things on the way and it was life-changing experience. Asante Sana

Everything I heard about them was 100% true - and then some!

I had heard a lot of great things about African Hagyko Safaris from trusted friends and family members who had used them in the past. I'll admit I was a bit nervous that my expectations were a bit "built-up" by all the good reports and that in the end I'd be disappointed. Nothing could be further from the truth. They exceeded my expectations in every way! We had the pleasure of having both James and Harrison as drivers for different segments of our trip. Here are a few things I particularly appreciated: * Lots of animal sightings! It wasn't luck. James used his knowledge of the animals and his experienced eye, and also used the radio to find out about sightings from other guides. * Always on time, never rushed. We had a complicated schedule, and despite my and my husband's tendency to be late, James was always patient, always smiling, never making us feel rushed - and always got us to our next thing on time. * Friendly and knowledgeable. James, through the things he shared, helped us to really connect with the Kenyan people, history and life in general. With him and Harrison, we felt like we were traveling with friends, not a hired company. * I'd be remiss if I didn't mention James' amazing 90's song playlist for the long drives :)

Experience the Majesty of Kenya

Peter Ndungu transported our group to and from Sopa Lodge in Maasai Mara, and took us on a full day of safari. With 15 years of experience and thousands of safaris all over Kenya under his belt, he was so knowledgeable about the preserve and its animals. We were so close to the wildlife—5 feet from a mating pair of lions who took refuge from the sun under a Land Rover! We were up close and personal with herds of elephants and water buffalo, giraffes, and even a lounging cheetah! We had so many questions about Kenya, its people and its wildlife, and he was able to answer every one. He was also happy to teach us Swahili along the way. It was the trip of a lifetime. You will not be disappointed.

Harrison is an extremely knowledgeable, intelligent, friendly safari guide who keeps safety first.

I have had the pleasure of experiencing safaris with Harrison 3 times to date and am in the process of planning my next visit. I would recommend him to any and everyone looking to book a safari. I have experienced Massai Mara twice and Amboseli once, each being completely unique and breathtaking experiences. Massai Mara gives you an opportunity to potentially meet the Massai tribe and learn about how they live, whereas Amboseli gives you an opportunity to see Mt. Kilimanjaro which is an experience all on its own. I will warn though that there is no guarantee you will see Mt. Kilimanjaro in all its glory due to cloud coverage which you also obviously can't predict. Harrison is an extremely intelligent, friendly, knowledgeable, safari guide/driver with a great sense of humor. He will make you feel at ease from the moment he picks you up. Harrison is very protective of his clients in a way of taking NO RISKS or chance of putting anyone in danger and making everyone feel as comfortable, safe and at ease as possible to enjoy the experience to the fullest. Harrison knows all the best places to spot the animals you desire to see and has proven to do the very best to his ability to make sure you see, learn and do everything you wish to do while enjoying your African safari. Book your safari with them NOW if you're even considering. I guarantee you will not regret booking with African Hagyko Safaris!

Our Go-To When in Kenya

We travel to Kenya at least once a year and when we do, we always contact this company. Cars are clean and comfortable, drivers are friendly and safe (thanks Harrison for always taking good care of us!) and booking is easy. The staff is communicative and always responds to questions in a timely manner. If you want a no hassle experience and confidence that you get what you ask for, book with them!

John(Wababo) was very nice and courteous and showed us amazing Lions,cheetahs and leopards.

John picked us up on time, was very courteous and had a comfortable van and stopped at clean rest areas. He was very good at finding the animals and showed us Lions, cheetah and a leopard on the very first day. The next day he took us to the mara river and showed us crocodiles. He spent extra time to find a family of 8-9 lions sleeping in a bush. He communicates with other drivers to find the correct location of the difficult to find animals. We had a great experience and would use this company again. Thanks John for showing us a great time!
