Affordable Masai Mara All Inclusive Safari

We booked a safari with Susan and as it was something I have been eagerly anticipating most of my life, we opened the budget strings a little. If we were going to do it once, we really wanted to get it right and make sure to make the most of it. We were still blown away. Although we have been home for a couple weeks, it still hasn’t really sunk it what an amazing experience it was. Susan set up an incredible itinerary, covering both Tanzania and Kenya during the wildebeest migration. Stayed a two five star camps, Taasa Lodge and the Soroi Luxury Migration Camp and both were better than we could have even hoped. The animal experiences were incredible, staff were unbelievably friendly, food unreal. Just a great family experience.

When there were little hiccups, and there are bound to be, Susan promptly responded and sorted it out. She was great. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a trip of a lifetime safari!

I took my son to the Masai Mara for his 16th birthday, and it was our very first trip to Kenya—an experience we’ll never forget. From the very beginning, Discover Africa (especially Susan) guided us every step of the way. They helped us choose the perfect destination tailored to exactly what we were looking for, arranged incredible accommodations, and took care of every detail—from drivers to internal flights.

Even when we decided to extend our stay, everything was handled seamlessly. It truly felt like we had our own personal assistant throughout the journey. Communication was effortless via email and WhatsApp, and they even checked in with us daily to hear about our experiences, what wildlife we had seen, and to make sure everything was running smoothly.

The service was not only impeccable but also deeply personal and genuine. I honestly can’t imagine planning another trip without Discover Africa!

My experience was wonderful. Matthys helped us to plan the trip to see great wildebeest migration. The timing was planned perfectly, the trip arranged in detail. In addition, Matthys always answered our questions timely and expertly before and during our trip. Each camp we stayed was beautiful with friendly staff. The Cliff is highly recommended with stunning views of the lake.

I found my experience with Discover Africa Safaris to be a very pleasant one. I took a 5 night Maasai Mara safari in Kenya. Communication was first class from the get go, my questions were answered quickly and precisely, with lots of information available. Pick up from my Nairobi hotel to my destination in the Maasai Mara and return went perfectly.

The tour itself was superb with the Great Migration just commencing and animals everywhere!! It was a once in a lifetime safari! Would thoroughly recommend to every traveler.

Geoff's Masai Mara Safari Experience

I appreciate all the information and help received throughout in order to make my safari holiday a very memorable one.

I do not have enough words to thank them, especially Adelle.

Our trip was arranged by Carel Verhoef at discoverafrica.com and was perfectly organised.

We flew into the Masai Mara from Nairobi and all flight connections and transfers were arranged for us and went like clockwork. Carel was also very generous with his advice having lived in East Africa for some years – he is a mine of useful information.

My wife and I have had this trip to see the wildebeest migration on our bucket list for some time and we decided to go this year to coincide with our wedding anniversary. For that reason we were looking for something special yet reasonably priced and Carel helped us find Mara Ngenche. What a spectacularly good choice that was.

We stayed for 5 nights the camp and were extremely well looked after. The staff are fantastic. Our waiter, Steve, learnt what food we liked and didn’t like and was always on hand with a glass of wine and also taught us some Swahili! The Masai guards who escorted us to & from our tent especially Musanga, Karbolo & Lindeni were always on hand, very polite and interesting. Almost everyone speaks excellent English.

The game drive vehicle that we used was completely open at the top and sides and was very comfortable. We had some fabulous sightings with Joseph, our very experienced driver/guide. He was excellent at anticipating the animal’s movements to ensure good photos. In one afternoon we saw the Big 5 and on another occasion 4½, as we could only see the leopard’s tail that time.

The position of the camp on the confluence of two rivers was so relaxing and we often sat on the deck watching the 30 or so hippos all day, even though they didn’t move very much. Breakfasts and lunches were served under the trees beside the river. Dinner, served in the restaurant, was four courses and was beautifully prepared and presented.

Overall, it was a fantastic trip and the staff at Mara Ngenche made it more than special. When it came time to leave, my wife cried because she didn’t want to go. Of all the holidays we’ve had over the years, this has been our most memorable.
