Reviews of our Kenya Tours for September
Feedback from guests who toured Kenya during September.
James C. | Traveled in September
Excellent. All accommodations were wonderful. Our tour manager Chris and our driver John were about as good as you could have. Both were very knowledgeable and personable. Saw all the big 5 and enjoyed the landscape and birds. My favorite was seeing Micheal the Tusker elephant. What a wonderful and amazing animal. The picture is of our daughter videoing a lioness hunt for zebra. Looks like someone else was interested in that hunt also.
Deborah C. | Traveled in September
The drivers were so knowledgeable, and we were able to see everything we hoped for and more! Our experience in seeing the animals was their top priority and I felt our drivers were more respectful of the animals than some of the other tour groups. Every place we stayed was a 5-star location; we couldn’t have asked for better accommodations
Stephen H. | Traveled in September
Excellent tour. National parks were Excellent. So many animals to see. Guides are Excellent at finding big cats. Really know their way around. If you want to see wildlife in their natural habitat, I highly recommend.
Cynthia S. | Traveled in September
It’s beautiful. Trafalgar took great care of us. We had all the best accommodations. The food was great where we went. The guides were very informative. I’d highly recommend this trip with Trafalgar. Nobody does it better

Our tour leader Mania was professional and knowledgeable. His enthusiasm and passion for his work was the main reason why the trip was so successful. The itinerary was thoughtful and the accommodation and meals provided were exceptional. The genuine welcome from those who worked at the hotels was stand out. A good first introduction to Kenya and the safari experience!
Anonymous | Traveled in September
This vacation was one of a kind, unlike any other! Numerous memorable experiences of animal sightings that I never imagined I’d watch in person with most memorable being a cheetah hunting a gazelle! Visits to the Masai village and dwelling was a moving experience each time! Beautiful landscapes seen and becoming a part of will remain unforgettable! Alfred, our tour manager is a very patient, knowledgeable and friendly guy but he could only be in one of the three safari vehicles at a time explaining and describing the animals and the flora and fauna! Recommend using some audio system that every traveler can tune in to listen to him in other vehicles too. Food was well managed per our requests and staff at every hotel, lodge and camp extremely courteous, helpful and accommodating! One regret, should have gone to Masai Mara!
