Happy beyond words !!
Imraan , Shifana and his team went above and beyond the call of duty ! From the time we landed at the airport until the time came to leave for home , the whole team made sure our safaris, lodging and any other needs were well taken care of. His driver in the safaris was well knowledged and made sure we saw the Big 5 as well any other animals we needed to see . Imraan stayed in constant communication with us to make sure all was according to what we needed. I will recommend Imraan and his team 100 times over to anyone planning to go to East Africa !!

The most memorable holiday ever-thank you, Best Camping Team
As the name suggest best camping tours & Safari, we had an above and beyond the best Safari and trip of our life. What a memorable experience, thank you best camping team, Imraan, Shafna, and our guide Abdullah for creating such beautiful memories. Special mention to Abdullah, our guide who was with us for the entire journey. He was one of the senior most team members and extremely knowledgeable about the forest. The animals, The birds, their habitat having an extremely sharp eye to spot animals at the remotest part of the forest. We have no words to express our gratitude to the entire team for customising our holiday and celebrating my birthday beyond our expectations, etched in our memory forever. We started our journey with the boat ride at Lake Navasha and the walking Safari with the animals at Crescent Island. The experience was outstanding with a personal guide, and showing us the different birds and animals and the giraffe right next to us.On arriving at our hotel,The Simba lodge we were blown away to see the beautiful zebra‘s water buck And several other animals roaming around freely in the lodge Gardens in their own environment. We also got lucky with the hippos at the lake. Thereafter, we spent 4 Beautiful nights at the Fig Tree camp inside Masai Mara and this was a life changing experience for us. The camp itself is located on the talek river and was hippos paradise with about 35 to 40 resident hippos and crocodiles, we had taken the lake facing luxury tents, and it was beautiful to sleep with the sounds of a hippo at night, amidst nature.Best part,no WiFi other than the reception area!!👌 Each day our Safari was exciting and adventurous beyond expectations. One day, we got to see three cheetah’s kill two animals at the same time and got them feasting on their trophy. Another experience the pride of 14 Lions and getting to see the male lions up close and personal. we also got to see civil species of beautiful birds. Giraffes ,Elephants zebra’s war dogs buffaloes all in all the big five, except the elusive rhino, which is hard to spot now.each day a new experience, falling short of words!! What best camping and the fig tree camp planned for my birthday cannot be expressed in words. We started with a beautiful balloon ride over the Mara, followed by private bush, breakfast and the most melodious birthday singing by the Hotel staff, bringing in the cake for me. I will never forget this experience. One important point for all vegetarian and vegan people like me the whole trip, the food was extremely delicious and an integral part of the Safari for a moment. I never had any problems for vegetarian food. It was in abundance and super delicious. As I sum up my long review, I would only say this that I would love to go back to Kenya and do it only with best camping tours & Safaris WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND BEST CAMPING TOURS & SAFARIS FOR YOUR NEXT TRAVEL TO KENYA!!
Response from the operator: Dearest Sandhya and Anuj, Jambo Jambo Sana. Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review. We’re truly grateful you chose to travel with us, and it means a lot to hear that your safari was a memorable one. It was a pleasure planning the trip with you, and we’re glad to know that everything—from Lake Naivasha and Crescent Island to your time in the Mara—came together in a meaningful way. Special thanks from Abdallah as well; he really enjoyed spending time with your family and was touched by your kind mention. We always try to take things slow and steady on safari, so it’s lovely to know that the wildlife moments stood out. We’re also happy the birthday celebrations added something extra to the trip—it’s moments like those we quietly hope our guests carry home with them. Thank you again for your recommendation. We really look forward to hosting you again on your next Kenya safari adventure in the near future. Warm regards, Imraan & The Best Camping Team

Amazing trip
Every year we use Best Camping tours. I think I have used Imraan to organise my safaris over 10 times now. This trip was fantastic. Meru National Park, Buffalo Springs and Masai Mara. Expertly planned. Saw so many animals including Lions in all three parks. Can’t wait to come back.
Response from the operator: Dearest Emma and Jamil, Reading your reviews always brings a smile to the entire team — Thank you for taking the time once again to share your experience. It means the world to us that you continue to trust Best Camping Tours & Safaris year after year. Planning your trips never feels like work — it feels like helping family put together another adventure. We're so glad you enjoyed Meru, Buffalo Springs, and Masai Mara, and that the wildlife showed up in full force! Looking forward to the next one already — you know where to find us when you're ready. Warmest regards, Imraan & The Best Camping Team

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
4 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does 4 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari cost?
+
Prices start at $1,150 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 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari 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 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 26 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 4 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 4 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari 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 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari?
+
Around 9 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 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari 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 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari?
+
Included: Lunch; Dinner; and Breakfast. Not included: Guest and Guide / Vehicle Park Fees Not Included. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does 4 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 257 listed pickup locations in and around Nairobi. Be ready about 60 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is 4 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 4 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is 4 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to 4 Days Masai Mara Camping Safari if the weather is bad?
+
