Experience of a lifetime!

We had an amazing tour with one of Saidi’s best guides, Mr. Kivitu. He was a great guide and driver— punctual, friendly, and knowledgeable about the wildlife and the area. We got to see 10 animals up close and even caught a group of lions feasting on a zebra. The vehicle was comfortable and spacious, with a pop-up roof so we could stand and take great photos. Mr. Kivitu’s expertise and thoughtful guiding made the tour unforgettable. Highly recommend!

Saidi is happy that you enjoyed the safari. Thanks for your kind words and I hope to see you soon, because Kenya has more attractions and not leaving behind beaches; and I will be happy to take you on another safari again. Again thanks again for choosing to me. #Let's Travel, Explore and Enjoy together. Regards, Saidi
