Mida Creek Safari Blue

Going on a safari with Giovanni and his team was a wonderful experience full of emotions. Thanks to their professionalism, passion, and deep knowledge of the area, every moment was magical and taken care of down to the smallest detail. We felt welcomed and safe from the first to the last minute. An unforgettable adventure that we will always carry in our hearts. Thanks for everything!

Unfortunately a big disappointment. The excursion was above all extremely poorly organized. From the time we arrived until the boat trip actually started, 2.5 hours passed. We got practically no information, just stood waiting next to the boats without knowing why it was taking so long or when we would leave. The snorkeling was supposed to last an hour according to the plan, but only lasted about 30 minutes. Lunch was served around 14, even though we had been there since 08. The lunch can hardly be called a seafood buffet - it started with Kenyan school food and ended with 5 shrimp, 2-3 crayfish and 1 small langoustine (young lobster) per person. The guidance was also a disappointment. We who did not speak Italian received practically no guidance at all, even though we asked for an English-speaking guide and this was on the boat. The biggest problem is however the organization. When so many boats are to depart, there is no reason to let all participants arrive at the same time in the morning. Tips: Split up the arrival times and thus avoid all hours of pointless waiting. It could also have solved the problem at lunch. Now the boats instead circulated around in the creek and waited for the groups that had come there earlier to finish eating before the next group could disembark. In summary: Far too much waiting, too little information, shorter snorkeling than promised, late and misleadingly described lunch, and poor guidance.

Definitely the worst experience we had in Kenya. Departure among trash and a mountain of seaweed with brown water. Snorkeling is nothing more than a "dive" with 1000 other people among zebra fish that come to the surface the moment the operators throw the food. The masks and equipment provided were inadequate. Sardegna 2 beautiful, but very shallow water; here too we were supposed to see small sharks, but nothing... last but not least, lunch in the village, we had been promised food in abundance (I quote the operator's words: "you only need to worry about bringing your appetite") while in reality they gave us rice, 3 shrimp, and 1 lobster counted... I personally brought my appetite, but back home. Money wasted.

Our day started by getting picked up by Sam. We liked his energy right away, but once we got close to the beach, we were handed off to a different guide who didn't communicate anything with us about the itinerary, and we were left standing around for an hour or more waiting for a boat and another group that was joining. In total, there were about 30+ people on the boat. It was too many. The captain was competent, and I was satisfied how he handled things when we got to the dolphins. Other boat captains were chasing and harassing them, and one even drove right through the center of the pod. Still no communication from our guide. The "tour" of the mangroves was just driving the boat up Midi Creek. No discussion about the ecosystem or anything. Snorkeling was a joke. There was no reef and no fish, no direction about where the reef was located in relation to the boats. Most people were just jumping off the boat to swim. The lunch was fine, but again the communication was poor. They put out the side dishes way before the grilled fish and lobster came out and didn't advise that the main course was in progress, leading several people to fill up on side dishes before the meat was served. All of the guides spoke Italian and seemed to cater to that group.

Samuel was our contact throughout our trip to Kenya, he didn't just organize this tour. From Italy he created our itinerary (3 days safari, blue safari, Mida creek + malindi Marafa in addition) including transport and all meals during the safari. He was always helpful and considerate towards us (during the tours he called to see if everything was okay 🥹). Good humor and laughter are guaranteed! Made our holiday special ♥️ HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Nice experience to do , you will not regret .beautiful sea, eat fresh fish, snorkelling, canoeing,

A day of light-heartedness and joy. Raimondo, the guide, always present, highly prepared, patient and available, did not spare himself to ensure that each of us was at ease. Excellent spoken Italian. Lovely places, fresh and well cooked food. Highly recommended
