Traveler reviews

Would rather try a different schedule and better accomodation.
It was an intense trip. Long driving time between parks and lakes. One shall book internal flights to avoid long hours of the road traffic. Wi-fi was not readily available as promised. Plenty of bottled water on board. Do not agree to the lunch on the field: weather is very hot in the midday, not a healthy choice of food provided etc. Rather choose morning and evening safari drive. Overall, safe safari voyage.

Fantastic Experience
Being a solo traveler, and on my first safari trip, I was anxious to say the least. But there was no need, as Henry and they team put all my worries at ease from the booking process, right through to the final day! I went for the 6 day Safari, visiting Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, finishing at Masai Mara. For the first 4 days, my driver Johson was absolutely fantastic. I was simply amazed at his knowledge of both his country and the animals that can be found, answering any and all questions I fired at him. He also had exceptional eye sight, managing to spot the smallest of animals from what seemed to be a mile away. The game drives around Amboseli, and Lake Nakuru where an absolute joy - where he simple knew where to place the vehicle to get the best view/ photos of the animals, this payed off as it resulted in a pride of lions walking directly towards us at one point. Unfortunately the vehicle we where using had to return to Nairobi half way through the trip, for its annual checkup. Johnson had to return also - however Henry had personally organized a second vehicle to continue the safari, and attended the finals days as a guide also. These final days I was privileged to have a Maasai person as the driver (sorry I forget his name), who once again had incredible knowledge of the area - and the wildlife. On top of that, he also had clear knowledge of where the various animals could be found throughout the day - with near laser accuracy to find them. Ended the safari with a trip to a Kenyan BBQ in Nairobi with Henry!! I cannot recommend Dume Africa enough. Henry was available at all times, answering both E-mails and phone calls swiftly to answer any questions I had. Would I recommend, or use in the future? 110% yes!! Thanks for an incredible experience, and I hope our paths cross in the future!

Best Safari Experience
Really amazing experience. The guide Josef is really experienced and will find a lot of different and rare animals. The organisator Henry is always available and does everything to fulfill ones wishes or to solve ones problems. I will definitely book my next safari at Duke Africa Trails.

Excellent Trip I will always remember!
The trip was superb, very well organized and one that I will remember forever. Henry was friendly, always on time, well prepared in advance and provided a wealth of information about Kenya, the culture, its people, the animals, the plants and everything I could ask about. The accommodations he selected also exceeded my expectations and the food was varied and delicious. As for the safaris drives, they were the highlight and we were able to spot countless animals while never feeling rushed. If you book as well, you certainly won't be disappointed. Thank you again Henry!

Enjoyable Safari Tour with Reliable Operator
Dume Africa Trail's response was quick and precise. They had Option B for my request which they gladly planned. Although I am a solo traveller, I didn't feel lonely as Henry (driver/guide/partner) gave me tons of information on the wildlife and birds everyday. Henry is also punctual, kind and reliable. I have no complaints with the accommodations that he recommended too. I highly recommend you to take his company should you wish to visit Kenya for the safari.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
6 Days Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does 6 Days Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara cost?
+
Prices start at $2,400 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 6 Days Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara take?
+
Plan for about 144 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 6 Days Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 13 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 6 Days Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara?
+
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 6 Days Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 144-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 6 Days Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara?
+
Around 5 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 144-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 6 Days Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara 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.
