An amazing time!
We did the 4-Day Safari with Lake Nakuru and had an amazing time! We worked with Betty to arrange the package and she communicated daily on the process and was very helpful through the entire thing. Our guide/game driver was Charles (Charlie) and he was incredible. Charles was able to locate and take us to all the animals! Charles is also very knowledgeable and answered all our questions about the animals. We felt we really got to see Maasai Mara and all the action there. Lake Naruku was beautiful, lots of birds! The optional boat tour at Lake Naivasha ended up being one of our favorite activities—- highly recommend this as you get to see hippos and the animals that reside at Crescent Island. Our safari package accommodation was at Lenchada for two nights. We were unsure of what to expect as there was not much on the lodge, however, we enjoyed our stay. While the tents are basic, they were clean and cozy— with private bathrooms that had hot water. The camp had everything we needed for the time there. Helen and the family at Lenchada were so welcoming and made sure everyday we had eaten. The packed lunch they provide for the all day safari included a lot of food— they definitely made sure we didn’t go hungry. I highly recommend booking with this agency! We are looking to come back and look into their other safaris later this year :)
Response from the operator: Hello Arrienne, Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience! We are thrilled to hear that you had an amazing time on the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru safari and that Charles was able to make it even more memorable for you. While it is always special to see every animal, we are glad you had a chance to experience so much of the incredible wildlife the parks has to offer. We are also pleased to hear that despite the camps been a basic one, the tents were clean and cozy! We hope to welcome you back for more amazing moments in the future. Cheer!

Perfect safari !!!
We took advantage of the four-day Safari in Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha. Everything was organised according to plan. We spent four fantastic days with the best guide - driver Richard, Nkoile. Richard has a lot of knowledge about animals and their habits, which allows us to watch them from a very close distance. We managed to see all of the big five. Richard is constantly smiling, cultured and very open to the needs and expectations of participants. We chose the overnight stay option at the campsite. We were very positively surprised by the clean, fragrant bedding, tasty food, and very nice service. We also took advantage of the visit to the village of the local community where we got to know the daily life of the Masai. We had the opportunity to dance together and visit the houses. We highly recommend the Safari in Masai Mara with Richard.
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are delighted to hear that you had a fantastic time on your safari with Richard and Nkoile as your driver/guide. It's heart-warming to know that they provided exceptional service, care and assistance, making the safari enjoyable and worry-free for you. It is our pride that you managed to see all the big five while on safari. Not forgetting you got a chance to interact and dance with the Masai people bring the African culture to life. We hope to hear from you again for more adventures. Thank you. Cheer!

A lifetime experience
This was definitely one of the best experiences of my life! The safari was amazing from start to finish, and everything went as planned. The pickups were always as planned, the hotels are not luxurious but more than enough in every aspect—simple, but with good food, hot water, and electricity, which is what matters. The agency always answered fast to any questions via WhatsApp, and in that sense, we felt safe all The time. Now, a big round of applause for our guide, Alex. He was amazing from start to finish and didn’t rest until we saw the Big 5!!! 5 stars for him and a huge hug from Portugal dear Alex! We truly loved everything. I don't have a single negative point to mention.
Response from the operator: Hi, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear you had such an unforgettable adventure in the Masai Mara with us. Alex will be delighted to know you appreciated his efforts, safe driving, and dedication to making sure you saw the Big 5. We are also glad you enjoyed the budget accommodation, delicious meals, and the warm hospitality at the camp. Thank you for choosing us for your safari adventure. We hope to welcome you back for another memorable journey soon! Cheers!

Memorable safari experience
We had a wonderful safari experience with Excellent GameSpotting Adventures. Betty was always responsive during booking, solving all queries, answering all the questions. Our driver/guide Daniel was knowledgeable about the terrain and animals, he made sure we saw all the animals in the Maasai Mara. Stay and food options were basic but tasty. Thank you for a memorable visit.
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such an excellent safari experience with us and enjoyed the memorable sightings of the animals.

Masai Mara is a unique reserve for every lover of wild nature - we highly recommend it
Masai Mara is a unique reserve with countless wildlife and we recommend this trip to everyone. A few comments for improvement for the organizer: 1. The first day - we were picked up from the hotel at 7:00 a.m. they dropped us off on the street and we waited 2 hours for the next departure. 2. The day before leaving for the trip, the tour operator informed us that we would be accommodated in Lenchada camp Masai Mara and Hillpark hotel in Nakuru - upon arrival we did not receive this accommodation, we had a completely different one. There was no hot water in Camp Manyatta for three days. 3. On the day of the transfer between Masai Mara and Nakuru, we spent the whole day waiting for the transfer, waiting twice for two hours in different parking lots and changing from car to car three times. 4, On the return day we were supposed to be dropped off at our hotel in downtown Nairobi, it didn't happen, they dropped us off at a gas station at the entrance to Nairobi and we had to book a taxi to the hotel at our own expense.
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the inconveniences you experienced during your safari. We appreciate your comments on the waiting time which we will have a discussion with our transport team so that they can improve on the logistic to reduce waiting time. We'll address the issues you mentioned concerning the accommodations lacking hot water so as to improve our services in the future. Thank you

4-Day Group Safari to Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru- 4 x 4 jeep: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does 4-Day Group Safari to Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru- 4 x 4 jeep cost?
+
Prices start at $500 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nairobi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 4-Day Group Safari to Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru- 4 x 4 jeep take?
+
Plan for about 96 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nairobi is not rushed.
Is 4-Day Group Safari to Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru- 4 x 4 jeep worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 4-Day Group Safari to Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru- 4 x 4 jeep?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 4-Day Group Safari to Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru- 4 x 4 jeep suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 96-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 4-Day Group Safari to Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru- 4 x 4 jeep?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nairobi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nairobi and add a light layer if any part of the 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 4-Day Group Safari to Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru- 4 x 4 jeep start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nairobi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nairobi?
+
On Outty we rank every Nairobi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Wild 5-Day Safari: Magical Mara, Nakuru Wonders & Hell's Gate, 2 Days Amboseli Safari using a 4x4 Landcruiser jeep(with options), Kibera Slum Tour with Lucas. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nairobi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nairobi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 4-Day Group Safari to Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru- 4 x 4 jeep?
+
Included: Lunch; Dinner; Bottled water; Our assistance at any point; and Breakfast. Not included: Gratitutes; Drinks e.g. alcohol; Maasai village @USD 20; and Balloon Safari (optional) can be organized upon request. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
