Excellent tour operator and guides with all arrangements carried out smoothly and efficiently.
We took the eleven-day Kenyan/Tanzanian Safari, and it was indeed the most wonderful experience of my life. I went with my 11-year old grandson. Bienvenido Kenya Tour and Safaris took care of us throughout the trip. Transport showed up when expected, our guides were excellent - particularly Patrick in Kenya - and the arrangements were exactly as planned.
We saw an enormous number of animals - all the big five - as well as many other species. We also got very close to numerous lions, elephants and other creatures. It was an extremely thrilling experience.
Accommodation ranged from good to very basic. Be prepared to rough it occasionally! There was also quite a bit more driving involved that I had anticipated.
For those considering this safari, the more research you do up front the better! I would have liked a bit more information about accommodation options, as well as a bit more guidance on what to bring, what not to bring, etc. In the end we just took very small bags, with only three changes of clothes, binoculars (a must!), guide book, cellphone and a warm jacket as nights can get chilly. This all proved to be more than adequate, and having small, light bags was a bonus, as we were constantly moving from one place to another. We were advised to bring "safari style" clothes, but that was not necessary! Also, take a small towel - some of the camps do NOT provide towels and cold showers with no way of drying off is not all that pleasant.
I would highly recommend Bienvenido Tours. Good value, no hidden extras and Purity is very responsive and helpful.

Worth the money
We booked for budget package so basic accomodations were expected. I think the company has upgraded us one night at Nakuru hotel, which was a great stay. Easy communication and fast response. Jeep condition was excellent, and our driver very experienced. Yes, I'll recommend this company.

value for money
Only problem we face is the 1st day pickup from hotel is delay by more than an hour. (Suppose to pickup at 6:45-7am) But wait until 8am (no contact info given and email reply after 7:30pm) should provide WhatsApp or WeChat for easy communication. And day before should let us know who will pick us up and what time to pick up and contact information (specially WhatsApp)

Helpful friendly knowledgeable staff answered all pre safari questions and the guides are brilliant.
Bienvenido tours offered us our budget 8 day safari to the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli National Parks. We saw thousands of animals and numerous species including the big 5. The price was very good and the accommodation was sometimes camps (with heavy duty tents) and sometimes hotels, they were all pretty decent and very safe. The food was good and our guides Moses & Geoffrey were amazing, their knowledge and driving skills were excellent and they had a knack of finding the animals. Before we went we had loads of questions and Kennedy who worked in the office answered them all quickly and efficiently making us feel we were in safe hands. (Thanks Kennedy). Our guides kept us informed regularly and we always knew what we were doing, They absolutely tried their hardest to make our experience amazing and they succeeded with flying colours. (Thanks Moses & Geoffrey). We did everything on the itinerary and more. This was an unforgettable experience of a lifetime and to see Lions, Elephants, Giraffes, Wildebeast, Crocodiles, Hippos, Rhinos, Hyenas, Warthogs Baboons, Cheetahs, Leopards, Ostriches and many many more all at close quarters was stunning. Add in seeing Mt Kilimanjaro as your eating your breakfast then what's not to love. My favourite bit was watching 200 Elephants crossing the road to go and eat. some were only a few metres away but we were always safe. The way they protect the babies as they walk is heart warming. You won't regret this safari I'd advise booking with Bienvenido as soon as you can.

4-day unforgettable experience!
We enjoyed 4-day safari trip from Nairobi through Abmoseli National park, Tsavo National Park and ended in Mombasa.
Our communication with the contact person Purity was very easy, quick and efficient - he gave useful advices and did it also in evenings and weekends!
Our driver Kitavi was really nice and pleasant person who did his job with full responsibility and took care that we really see as much as possible. He was also an exciting conversation companion so that we could get to know so much interesting about Kenya.
Those were unforgettable days and amazing experience!
Thank you very much "Bienvenido Kenya Tours and Safaris", you made our first experience in Kenya so great and wonderful!
Booked a 5day safari the night before and they nailed it
Our driven and guide Clinton was a stud 10/10 recommend. Pretty sure we saw the big 5 in one full day my dude knew what he was doing to say the least. He got us so close to the animals it was crazy. This man drove us into the middle of nowhere and all over the country for a week and never checked a gps once. Helped us book train tickets because we could not use mpesa and dropped us off safe. A trustworthy and reputable ambassador for the company
