The experience of a lifetime! - I started planning my trip about a half a year ago and had no idea how to find a good safari company. I spent a lot of time researching companies and stumbled upon Lenchada who had amazing reviews and are known to have great tour guides. Let me tell you they didn’t disappoint. They were very helpful with planning my trip and quick to respond when I had specific questions. I started my safari last week and it was the best thing I’ve experienced in my entire life, and that is solely thanks to my amazing tour guides, Ali. I spent 6 days with Ali, going all over Kenya. Ali is very knowledgeable about animals and the geography of Kenya/ the surrounding areas we spent time in. I can tell he loves his job and he is the best at what he does. On top of that, he is very professional in the sense that he accommodates for each of his clients specific interests. I asked a lot of questions and he made sure to answer them to the best of his ability. On top of that, he helped me with a lot of things such as setting up nature walks and cultural experiences. I told him that it was important for me to see the big 5 and he made sure that happened. A core memory that I’ll never forget was that he set up the perfect opportunity for me to take a super rare picture of a cheetah. That was amazing. He wasn’t just accommodating to me, but to everyone on the safari. Others were interested in other animals such as birds and giraffes, and he made sure their needs were met. I even became a little interested in birds thanks to that. With all the time driving, I was always having a good time laughing and sharing stories with Ali and other members of the safari. I also felt very safe at all times. This was an experience I’ll never forget, thanks to Lenchada. I can’t recommend it any more. This is a very good company for first time safari goers and experienced ones!

Amazing - I booked a 6-day tour that included visits to the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and concluded with Amboseli. As promised, I was picked up from my hotel on the first morning and taken to the office to complete the payment. The journey began with our driver, Francis, who was friendly and spoke excellent English. In the various parks, Francis drove like a professional rally driver. The moment he heard on the radio about nearby wildlife, he skillfully navigated us to prime viewing spots. We were able to get remarkably close to giraffes, zebras, lions, lionesses, a leopard with her cub, and many more. In Masai Mara, we saw more animals than in any other park. At Lake Nakuru, we spotted three rhinos, and in Amboseli, we experienced a majestic early morning scene: hundreds of elephants with Mount Kilimanjaro as a breathtaking backdrop. The camps where we stayed were comfortable, and while the food was decent (nothing extraordinary), the overall experience was truly remarkable.

6-day group safari: July 2024 - We went on safari with Lenchada for 6 days as a group. An unforgettable experience! Our driver and guide Stanley was very professional. He always did his best to allow us to get the best photographs of animals. We also thank him for his many explanations of animal life and reserves.

Great budget Safari! - I would have loved giving five out of five stars to the Lenchada Safari because the first 4 days, John our guide was fantastic. Very considerate. Very conscious of our safety and our comfort. Kept on the radio so that we were able to spot some obscure animals. The reason that I did not give a five-star was because I was handed off to a second group after the fourth day with a guide named Stephen who was not as communicative or conscientious to our comfort or our needs. However, with John we saw the big five and I lived a lifelong dream! Be prepared. this was a budget Safari and you get what you pay for. Most all of my better photos are on my camera and I'm doing this from my phone but even using a phone a lot of the pictures were great. But if you have a long lens, bring it. That being said, the food was pretty good and I felt pretty safe in the camps. For me that is all I needed but others may want a bit more. I loved it!!!

Unique animal diversity - We opened in Sep. 24 undertook a 6-day tour at Lenchada Safaris. Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. All parks have their own character, the animal diversity is fascinating and unique. Unfortunately, the operator only informed us about price increases 2 weeks before the start of the safari and only after request. The communication went smoothly. Lenchada and Jokey Tours are probably the same operator. Maasai Mara : large herds, many wildcats and the impressive Mara River with hippos and crocodiles. Accommodation : Lenchada camps. The tent was clean and spacious. The plant has already come of age. There were no chairs on the terrace and the dining area was an imposition. No “bonfire feeling” arose here. Lake Nakuro : many waterfowl, rhinos, monkeys and buffalo. Accommodation : Standard hotel in Buruha Zenoni Hotel not far from the park entrance. Amboseli : impressive scenery with Kilimanjaro in the background. Big herds of elephants. That's great. Accommodation : very, highly recommended the Manjuro Camp. Super friendly, good tents and good food. Travel times / driver : The distances between the parks are very large. The main traffic routes are jammed. Travel times of 6-8 hours are the rule. Our driver drove extremely carefully, but was quite terse. Conclusion : The parks are really uniquely beautiful. Lenchada Safaris is only recommended to a limited extent. There is a look wherever savings can still be made. For example, a low-quality lodge was approached without agreement (but we were able to successfully refuse). You should have everything confirmed in writing beforehand.
