9-Days Best of Kenya Wildlife Private 4X4 Jeep Safari

I don't even know where to begin. From start to finish, Gracepatt Tours made everything absolutely perfect. Ahead of the trip, Gracepatt Tours guided us through the (minimal) things that needed to be done in advance, such as e-visas. Transfer from airport to hotel went smoothly, even though our flight had been delayed and I had no way to inform the driver. The day the tour began we were picked up by Timothy ("Tim"), who was nothing short of fantastic. First of all, he was a safe driver, and that's so very important. He was so knowledgeable about all of the wildlife. I actually cried saying goodbye to our new friend after 9 days with him. Although there isn't a guarantee, we were lucky to see all of the "Big Five," including lots and lots of lions, elephants, and rhinos, and even a leopard. Plus giraffes, zebras, baboons, monkeys, cheetahs, warthogs, ostrich....you name it! The lodges were each a bit different from one another, but all perfectly clean and comfortable, with the BEST, most COURTEOUS staff. The food was plentiful, and there was plenty of variety. (If you're going on safari for the food, it's probably not for you, but there was always something yummy on the buffet.). Even after our safari ended and the next day our return flight got delayed, Gracepatt continued to promptly take care of us by rescheduling our airport transfer for a few hours later. For us, it was worth the added expense to have a private experience. You will spend a LOT of time in the jeep, not just on game rides, but in traveling from park to park. We were thrilled to have the jeep to ourselves, with lots of room to move around, no luggage at our feet. If you need a smooth-riding, quiet vehicle, safari is probably not for you, but if you want to see one of the most beautiful places in the world, and meet some of the nicest people, DO IT. And do it with Gracepatt.

Really amazing experience! Everything went great! There wasn't a single problem with pick-up, hotels or the activities. Our driversguide Simon was really friendly, punctual and open minded. We could ask him everything and he told us really much about the wildlife, kenya and its people. He also drives very safe, which is a big deal considering kenyans streets and traffic. We felt safe with simon on our side and he tried to make our wishes possible. Despite Covid and even with only two people the tour was possible and unforgettable. We can recommend Gracepatt and our dirversguide Simon highly.
