Amazing Safari experience - I picked the 4 day Safari to Masai Mara and lake Nakuru and i am really satisfied with the really unique experience that we had watching wildlife in their natural environment and learning a lot of things about Kenya and the animals!! Our guide was Julius who was an amazing guide always in the mood to explain everything and doing everything he can to ensure we have the best experience in the Safari, despite the bad weather that we encountered we managed to see the big 5 of the animals with us being in the best spot possible to take the best photos! I absolutely recommend anyone visiting Kenya doing this Safari with Lenchada and Julius as the guide!

All big five, great driver and amazing tour - An absolutely phenomenal tour from start to end, Evans was our driver and was super chill, super funny and so good at spotting animals. Many times we saw things other groups didn’t as he negotiated with park wardens and others to get us the good information. Came as a solo traveller but met the most amazing group of people and made some lifelong friendships in the process.

Saw the big five, made friends and great memories - Amazing experience, Evans the driver was so knowledgeable on all the animals and trails to get to see them. I upgraded lodging space which was well worth it

to marvel - We traveled as a group of 5 Spaniards with Moses as a guide, a great experience. He picked us up at the hotel in Nairobi and accompanied us the entire time. In total 4 days of safari with varied activities, always recommending the best options for us, and without stopping trying to see the most "embarrassing" animals, a charm. In the end we could see everything. As for accommodation, the first two nights in the cabins, where we had everything we needed to eat, sleep and take a shower without great luxuries, but enough if that is not your goal. The night at Lake Makuru was in a hotel, all the staff were super nice, there was a pool, spa, massages and a spacious and comfortable room, even a small pub. Every day breakfast, lunch and dinner included. I would repeat without a doubt.

Great 4 day safari which ticked the boxes - We did the 4 day safari to Maasai Mara, and Nakuru and had David as our guide. It was our first safari and an amazing experience. David was a great driver / guide who was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The only thing I would say that could be improved is communication- what the plan is for the day, when we will be eating etc. The parks had an abundance of wildlife (saw all the big 5 apart from a leopard). The vehicle was in good condition (Land Cruiser) and the accommodation was really comfortable- we were expecting a lot worse considering we opted for the budget option. One thing to remember is the driving required to get to the places as we had a 4 day safari but in reality only did 1 full day and 2 half days of animal viewing. One thing to note is the vehicles essentially fill up with people from many different companies so if you’re booking a group tour, I would recommend just trying to get the best deal. We had done the research and chose this company due to good reviews however in our car of 7 people, there were people from 3 different companies. Also, I would recommend going in dry season as it is a lot easier to see animals (we struggled at times as it had rained a lot).

The journey of our lives! - An African safari... has always been our biggest dream. Before we started our journey, we talked about how happy we would be if we saw a lion. Maybe we would also see an elephant? But what we experienced then is beyond words. Thanks to Lenchada Safaris and especially to our guide Kalifa our trip was unforgettable. Not only did we feel very comfortable every second of the safari, but in the end we also saw the Big 5!!! Wow... Kalifa’s passion to show us all the animals as close as possible was phenomenal. No distance was too far for him, no road to bumpy! We had enough time to enjoy the atmosphere and take photos of the animals. He also gave us plenty of information about the animals, their way of life and all the other surroundings - super exciting! The way he talks and interacts with customers is exceptional, but most remarkable: All the people he spoke or interacted with were left with a smile! We would do this safari with Kalifa again anytime. It was the best decision of our lives! We are very grateful. THANK YOU FOR THIS EXPERIENCE AND SEE YOU ONCE AGAIN!

the most memorable trip of my life - Point for good -A tour guide named Kevin was a really nice person. His operation was excellent! -We can see many wild animals and I was impressed. -Even though, first day was drizzling, we could see beautiful stars in the sky. -On the way, Kevin offered us some break time and one place was Artcaffe and it was really nice. Points for improvement -a Camp in Masai Mara (Lenchada Tourist Camp), food and staff were nice! However, we got many insects in our room during the night, and the hot water shower did not come out soon (after 5~8 minutes), and only we could use electricity in a dining room from 5:30 a.m. to 7 a.m.If you do not like this circumstance, I recommend you ask for another accommodation when you book. In our party on this tour, we have other participants, and some of them booked a nice hotel ( Jambo Mara Safari Lodge)

4 amazings days - Salomon was a great driver and guide during our trip. He was punctual, kind, gave us relevant information and most importantly, he looked for the animals on safaris very diligently, always giving us the best possible view. About Lenchada camping I would like to suggest an improvement in the food, because, well, to my taste it wasn't good, but if you don't have many restrictions, go ahead. And there was a day when the water didn't heat up for the shower. In any case, people are very kind and helpful.
