The special experince - We enjoyed our time in Kenya. Kenneth definitely made the experience more special. He is caring and does his best to make everybody enjoy the tour.

Amazing trip - I started this trip alone and I ended up finding good friends. Our driver Kenneth was the best and we had such a good trip thanks to him.

Adventurous trip - We had a wonderful trip to Kenya. It was a lifetime experience. We also had the best driver Kenneth. He is so patient and fun to be around and he drives safe too. We all wish to come back again some day

Best Safari Hands Down! - My long-awaited odyssey came to fruition with the help of Africa Home Adventure. I traveled with my family on this incredible safari for a holiday break. It was filled with a lot of wildlife sightings throughout the journey. Highlight of this safari was my Tour Guide Tom who was extremely helpful and informative as we traveled along. Everything which was in our bucket list was covered in this incredible safari. I'm grateful to Africa Home Adventure Safaris for making this dream safari possible for us.

Inconsistent service - We used Africa Home Adventure Safaris for two customized safaris, one in June 2024 (hiking and Ambiseli), which I would give 4 stars, and one in July 2024, which I would give one star. Albert was our point of contact, and for the most part, he was responsive and quick to get back to us on What’s App. Accommodations were excellent, mostly at Sopa and Serena lodges (highly recommended after tiring days). We upgraded from Enchoro (owned by Albert), and chose another camp. Our first Safari ran very smoothly, and we were thrilled with our guide, George. He was responsible, communicative, engaging, knowledgeable and friendly. We had daily briefings, which outlined our plans for the following day, and he constantly checked-in and engaged with us. He took an interest in us, and created a warm and friendly atmosphere. We felt that George went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience, and we learned a lot about animals and Kenyan culture. I would rate our first safari as a 4 because the jeep was old, windows were hard to open, it was hard to see out the front windshield, and we ended up with a flat tire one evening (luckily it didn’t affect the Safari, as the Sopa lodge helped George change to the spare tire). We also had a payment problem at Mount Longonot, which took an hour to solve (see comments below). Our second Safari in July was a completely different experience. While we received a new, comfortable jeep, we had a last-minute guide change, and was given Kenn (instead of Jared). While Kenn was nice and polite, he was certainly no “guide”. He served merely as a driver, and not always a safe one (often driving too fast on the bumpy roads, and flying over speed bumps). Kenn engaged very little with us over the course of our 5-day safari, and didn’t seem particularly interested in connecting. When we asked questions, he often seemed confused (perhaps his facility in English was poor). Kenn didn't communicate anything beyond animal names. He didn’t know names of any small birds. Ironically, we discovered an African bird book on the dashboard on the final day of our trip, which Kenn was using as a folder for his receipts. When we stopped to view animals, we could hear guides from other jeeps sharing information, while Kenn remained silent. We learned nothing from Kenn about animals, birds or Kenya culture. It felt like Kenn was simply driving us around to check-off animals from a list. Often, he would begin to drive away while we were still standing and taking pictures. While George knew exactly where to park his car, anticipating animal movement, with Kenn, we had to suggest places for him to stop, to get the best views of the animals. Aside from some dangerous driving, the most significant complaint was Kenn’s poor communication. We never knew what was happening. There were no daily briefings, like we had with George. We often had to ask him what was the plan for the day. On a few occasions, Kenn’s lack of communication left us unprepared. For example, on the day we drove from Ol Pejeta to Lake Nakuru, after eating breakfast at 6:30 am, we didn’t get to the next lodge until 3:00pm. We were not advised to pack snacks (or a packed lunch) and were told we would arrive at the lodge for lunch. On another occasion, on the second day of entry into Masai Mara, we were not informed to bring passports. Luckily, everyone in the jeep had theirs on hand. Finally, on two occasions (Ol Pejeta morning game drive and Masai Mara evening game drive), Kenn tried to cancel these them due to timing, but we insisted they occur as we pre-paid for them). In general, Kenn seemed distracted and not particularly interested in our group of four people. His phone beeped constantly, and he was often distracted by calls and texting (even while driving). Once, he stopped at a roadside mall, got out of the car and left the jeep without saying anything. When he returned (15 minutes later), and we asked what happened, he told us he had personal business to attend to. I blame the mishaps of the second safari on African Home Adventure Safaris. Even though I booked months in advance, they would not support my request for a specific guide. Albert assured me that all their guides were accredited and equally good. That is not the case. Also, African Home Adventure Safaris should be aware that several national parks (for hiking and safaris) don’t accept cash, and there should be a plan for payment (perhaps a company Visa card). We had to problem-solve and use our visa for some park entrance fees. We were reimbursed in cash, but these mishaps took time. Finally, when I mentioned that our second Safari was not up to par, Albert apologized, but didn’t seem particularly interested in hearing about the problems. While any trip to Kenya will be a good experience, and you will see an abundance of animals in the parks, a knowledgeable and engaging guide makes an ordinary experience extraordinary. With an abundance of excellent Kenya based tour companies available, I would recommend you choose one where you can request a specific guide, based on reviews. A good guide makes a HUGE difference. Thank you George, you were amazing!!
