Excellent service with friendly contact persons and a great tour guide.
5/5

We had a great time in Tsavo East, Tsavo West and Amboseli.
The tour was well organized, with beautiful lodges (we loved Satao Camp and Severin Safari Camp), John was very helpful and also helped to organize a birthday surprise for a friend, Amos our tour guide was just awesome, he gave everything to make our tour unforgettable.
We will definitely book our next safari in Kenya with Trav-Interactive again.
Thank you for the great experience!

3 day safari Amboseli/Tsavo West
5/5

We had a wonderful safari with Trav Interactive. From the first contact we felt very comfortable. John was always proactive in getting back to us, asking what was going on and taking our wishes into account. We decided to stay at Amboseli Sopa Lodge with a view of Mount Kilimanjaro and the Saltlick lodge. Both accommodations were excellent. Juma, our driver/guide, was pleasantly unagitated but very nice and courteous and navigated us as a family wonderfully and safely.
Unfortunately, we were a little unlucky with the weather in Tsavo West, so we didn't really see many animals here. All in all, however, it was a great trip. We can recommend Trav Interactive with a clear conscience. Thank you John and thank you Juma for the great experience

Our tour operator was thorough, informative, and efficient
5/5

John was very good at communicating via email of any questions with regards to details with the safari.

He was also very helpful when our luggage was lost at airport to find a way to still do the safari and not miss out on anything and yet come back to the airport to get our luggage.

Our driver and tour guide Dan was efficient, informative, passionate about his job, went above and beyond to make sure we got to see as much of the animals as we possibly could.

He also made the safari itself smooth and relaxing. He bought complimentary water bottles for us and when we ran out of shillings, he helped pay for the tips until we got to an ATM to pay back. He was very kind and his English was overall easy to understand.

I would definitely recommend Dan as your tour guide and driver for there is nothing on this trip I feel like we missed out on because of his knowledge, efficiency, hospitality, and excellent communication.

5/5

I hope people have the energy to read my review until the end! 😂
I highly recommend this travel agency for safaris in Kenya!

We were a group of 10 Italians (4 parents and 6 young adults). It was our first time in an African country — and therefore, our first safari.

While we had some amazing organizers within our group, John’s dedication and willingness to ensure we had an unforgettable experience made all the difference. He helped us personalise and plan everything perfectly: choosing the right national parks to visit — and in the best order (1. Tsavo West, 2. Amboseli, 3. Taita Hills, 4. Tsavo East) — based on our arrival in Mombasa. He selected the ideal hotels, must-do experiences, and activities for us.

And last but not least, he found us the best drivers: Randu and Righan. Both spoke excellent English (like John), and one of them even spoke fluent Italian — a big plus, since not everyone we met in Kenya spoke English clearly, which sometimes made communication tricky.
The drivers were joyful, professional, and fully committed to making our safari incredible. They went above and beyond to help us spot as many animals as possible — almost at any cost! 😂 We did 8 game drives of 2–3 hours each over 5 d. It was intense — we were ready by 6 am and out spotting animals until nearly 7 pm — long days!

Not once did we feel unsafe in their care. They were well-trained and respectful of safari rules and wildlife. We had the chance to see so many animals up close: elephants, zebras, giraffes, buffalos, various gazelles, lionesses (multiple times), young lions, hyenas, cheetah, many birds, warthogs, hippos, and crocodiles.

Honestly, there wasn’t a single moment I didn’t enjoy or feel truly happy.
I completely fell in love with Kenyan culture and its people. ❤️

Professionalism and helpfulness, that’s Trav-Interactive!
5/5

We set off on our safari as a group of ten and spent five days and four nights exploring Tsavo West, Amboseli, Taita Hills, and Tsavo East.

The itinerary was organized by John before our departure. He listened to and accommodated all our requests, offering us not only the chance to go on numerous game drives (9 in five days), but also several extra experiences that made our trip truly unique. The nature walk in the savannah of Taita Hills, the panoramic viewpoint at Mudanda Rock, and the Lugard Falls in Tsavo East, as well as spotting hippos at Mzima Springs in Tsavo West, were all unforgettable experiences.

What truly made the difference in our safari, however, were the guides/drivers: Randu and Righan were the real added value. With their professionalism and experience, they led us to the most beautiful and hidden corners of the parks: herds of elephants just meters away, lionesses hunting warthogs and buffalo, hundreds of zebras and wildebeest, a cheetah hidden in the brush, hippos both in and out of the water. And then giraffes, buffalo, gazelles, antelopes, crocodiles, a lion atop a Lions Rock, countless bird species, and many other animals...

Our jeeps were comfortable, practical, and always clean despite the red Tsavo dust. Randu speaks excellent and fluent Italian.

At every accommodation—whether lodge or tented camp—we felt truly welcomed, and the hospitality of the Kenyan people will stay in our hearts. We especially recommend the Kilaguni Serena Safari Lodge in Tsavo West.

Trav-interactive gets full marks... we’ll be back for the Masai Mara!

Perfectly organized - lifetime experience
5/5

My safari experience booked by Trav-Interactive was a smooth and very well organized trip. From the first reach out to the moment I took my flight back Trav-Interactive stayed connected, checked in on me and ensured regular communication.

The trip was planned in detail including pick ups, accommodation, and domestic flights.

At any point, I felt I was kept in the loop and different communication channels (ie email, WhatsApp etc) were provided from the start.

The accommodation Tipilikwani was great, spacious room, good food and great service.

I’d recommend Trav-Interactive based on my recent trip. Thank you for everything!

Friendly, reliable and tailor-made solutions provider
5/5

Outstanding experience. David was fantastic right from the outset. He was responsive, trustworthy and reassuring. Given that I am based in the UK and was liaising with someone in Nairobi, I wanted to be sure I was getting the best deal and value for money. And David and Trav Interactive certainly delivered. He booked us a fabulous property, flights to and from Mara and the game drives. He also came and met us at Nairobi airport before we left for Mara which was a lovely gesture. We booked a private safari and had the jeep all to ourselves. The guides were knowledgeable and so accommodating. We had a great all-round experience Thanks David for making our first safari experience so memorable.
