What travelers are saying

"I didn’t take this tour exactly, but made some changes based on my schedule and interests and travel dates. It was my first time in Southeast Asia and I was a traveling solo female. Liz my trip consultant and contact person was so helpful and responsive to any and all my concerns and questions. It was a trip of a lifetime. I can not gush enough about the itinerary and experiences. I am completely impressed with is company and this person. Ya ya in Chang Mai and Sam in Bangkok are top notch guides. The diving in Phuket was arranged with Siam diving, a small private boat not an over stuffed crowded one. It felt like we were the only people in the ocean. Goo, GO, GO!!!!"

"I am a 43 year old Indian male who loves to travel, likes to read and research places and would love to be treated with dignity and respect which he deserves. This is my review of the 4 days- historic Scotland tour that I took with star tours in Wembley, London from 18-21st July'23. I and my wife boarded from Wembley. We started on a bad note. I had initially requested for a Watford pickup but later when I changed it to the origin point (Wembley), I was asked to pay an admin fee of GBP 15 per head (they later asked for only GBP15). I mean, why would you ask for extra money when I am coming all the way to the origination point and saving you the hassle to pick and drop me at some other location? Bottomline- please read all the fine prints. Let's talk about the tour- This is a great tour if a) you are an indian or of an indian origin b) you are very particular about indian food c) you would prefer company of only fellow indians (and I say this as an indian with utmost respect) This is not a great tour if a) you would like to have a knowledgable tour guide who actually knows about the route, the places, the history b) you are genuinely interested in the places you visit c) you would like to be treated with courtesy and respect that you deserve after paying 400 pounds per person d) you would like some music on the tour ( the bluetooth speakers did not work and the guide had to use his phone and put the microphone near his phone speaker) The tour representative/guide Shaji Vethody was so frustratingly naive and disrespectful that at one point of time I actually volunteered to take the passengers through the history and significance of places that we were paying to visit. He allowed that once but I guess he became insecure later and did not allow it citing safety reasons. His overall attitude was like "you are a bunch of fellow Indians and I would expect you to be only concerned about theplas and bhujias and antakshari, I don't really expect you to be either knowledgable or inquisitive. If you do ask me to do my job then I am within my rights to shut you off in a disparaging manner". If this is how we treat each other then I do not expect the foreigners to treat us any differently. I really regret choosing this tour on this account as I am very particular about knowing and understanding the significance of places that I visit on a tour. The food was decent but the tone of this gentleman and his overall attitude bordered on the disrespectful in my opinion. At one point even the British driver said something about India with a racist overtone (When the passengers objected, Shaji had a word with him and then apologized on his behalf) About the points of visit- the itinerary http://bookings.startours.co.uk/Tour/04-Days-Historic-Scotland#MarkersMapCanvas felt like a typical tick mark exercise without someone to guide us but it was still entertaining The hotels were comfortable but very far from the city center. Btw The food was Indian and delicious. Overall I would not recommend this tour if you are an actual travel buff."

What travelers are saying

"We did an 8-day all-inclusive tour to 4 different parks in Kenya. We chose Denhum due to an email where they responded enthusiastically about their commitment to eco-friendly and ethical tourism which contributes to local communities rather than ignoring them or exploiting them. Communication prior was prompt and clear. We had a severe food allergy in our group and it was handled at each lodge appropriately and kindly. Our incredible guide Musa is a Kenyan and drives for multiple companies. He said Denhum was by far his favorite to work for due to their ethics, how well they treat him, and the Kenyan ownership. This safari was so affordable and we stayed in some of the most amazing places I’ve ever seen! Far above my usual level as a budget traveler. The food at each lodge was so delicious and the accommodations themselves kept getting better and better at each stop. We saw so many incredible animals due to how talented our guide, Musa, was. He has so much experience and is clearly well respected and a leader among the drivers. Truly I can’t say enough good things about Musa, he absolutely made the trip and it wouldn’t have been the same without him. He treated us like family and was so thoughtful with planning each day for us. I’m not sure I can ever do a safari without him! To be sure I will be using Denhum for my next safari. Only recommendation for improvement is not to do the Maasai village tour. It was very uncomfortable and we felt taken advantage of, pressured, extorted, exploited. We obviously care about supporting local cultures but that was a bad experience."

"We had an absolutely perfect experience with Vacay Holiday - and it was significantly less than the two other quotes I received for the exact same holiday. Leonarah’s prompt, friendly, and personal service provided a truly bespoke safari, and it was as if we had personally interviewed and selected our game driver/guide Dan Kim. He is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and fun and we are already trying to figure out how to convince our family to come to Nairobi so we can book again!"

Masai Mara National Park Tour Selection Trips

  • Masai Mara can get very crowded, especially during the Great Migration months of June to October, with July and August being prime months.
  • The western part of the park, farther from Nairobi, tends to be the least crowded. Nairobi, Kenya, and Arusha, Tanzania, are both crawling with tour operators who want your Masai Mara business, but some are fly-by-night operations with guides who are mostly glorified drivers.
  • To find a reliable outfitter with trained, qualified guides and an itinerary that fits your needs, It’s best to book ahead online, using Stride’s tools to sift out the gems.
  • A wide range of accommodations are available in and around the park, from rustic to luxury, which will in part determine the price of your safari.
  • While the Great Migration is undoubtedly the top draw, Masai Mara offers excellent game-viewing at any time of year.
  • The months of November to May bring fewer crowds and generally lower prices.
