Incredible MASAI MARA Adventure
We had a great experience with doing a 4-day Mara safari with Holidayworks. The booking process was easy, and our driver, Francis, was beyond our expectations. Truly the best driver one could ask for. However, I would like to raise an issue here. While the Mara is a pristine environment, the town near its entrance is covered in plastic bottles from tourists. It’s not that the tourists throw them there, they all dispose them in the jeeps, or camps. However the plastic waste ends up covering the streets of the town. Tour operators should take back to Nairobi the plastic they bring to town.

Best of All adventure
Great safari trip 5/5 My brother and I had a great safari trip. Holidayworks were very communicative and helpful from the start. Although we did have a small issue with the hotel check in in Nairobi, this was the hotel's fault and was quickly resolved. During the safari itself, I got food poisoning at one of the lodge's, Holidayworks Africa were kind enough to move the itinerary around and let us stay a further night at a different lodge and didn't charge anything more for this. Much appreciated! Our guide Smart was super good at finding all of the animals we wanted and drove around like a champion.. seeing a leopard was the highlight and absolutely incredible! My only wish was that we could communicate a little better in English.

The most incredible trip, thanks to an amazing tour company
We had the most amazing honeymoon on an 8-day safari (Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara) followed by 4 days in Zanzibar thanks to Africa Flashmc! We chose Africa Flashmc to plan our safari because they came highly recommended by a friend, and we were looking to work with a local/Kenyan operator. We worked directly with Peter to plan our trip. Throughout the planning process, he was incredibly accommodating, giving us multiple options for the itinerary and lodging, and he was so responsive. We had to reschedule our safari twice: once due to Covid, and then a day-of flight cancellation. With the various lodges, flights, covid tests, and hotels involved, it seemed like a logistical nightmare, but Peter was always accommodating and made sure we still had the original experience we signed up for without any pushback. Our tour guide was Simon and I can't say enough wonderful things about him! He was so kind and a pleasure to be around. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the parks and animals -- not to mention a very skilled off-roading driver. I don't think there was a single question we asked that he didn't know the answer to! I also really appreciate that he taught us a lot about Kenyan culture and even some Swahili. He was tireless and was willing to take us through the parks until we dropped. He made sure we saw the big five (multiple times over) and many other animals. You could tell he got along with the other guides as well, further proving what a genuinely good person he is. Going on a safari may feel intimidating but both Peter and Simon made us feel 100% at ease and taken care of every step of the way -- we truly had no worries the entire trip, and the trip exceeded our wildest dreams. if we go back (which we hope we do) we would not hesitate to work with Africa Flashmc again.

Trip of a lifetime
The 8 day safari my friend and I took was even more amazing than I could have imagined. Before the Safari I really appreciated Manager Peter N. prompt responses to my many questions. Our driver Anthony on Kenya portion of the Safari was not only knowledgeable, but also attentive to our needs and had a great personality. He also was very good at driving to the locations where we had the best view as possible of the animals. Victor, our driver in Tanzania was also very knowledgeable and considerate. Thank you Peter for arranging a trip of a lifetime.

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
8-Day Amazing Kenya Holiday Safari: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does 8-Day Amazing Kenya Holiday Safari cost?
+
Prices start at $4,814 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 8-Day Amazing Kenya Holiday Safari take?
+
Plan for about 192 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 8-Day Amazing Kenya Holiday Safari worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 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 8-Day Amazing Kenya Holiday Safari?
+
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 8-Day Amazing Kenya Holiday Safari suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 192-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 8-Day Amazing Kenya Holiday Safari?
+
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 192-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 8-Day Amazing Kenya Holiday 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.
