We started conversations to explore the possibilities for our safari trip. We talked about the parks and available lodges, and which ones we could fit best in our 7 day safari. After that I got a definitive quote, and made a 50% deposit and later the rest. The process was very transparent. We kept having conversations with WhatsApp, so I was really confident that the trip would be a success. And wowwwww, they did not disappoint. They also arranged the transfer from the airport to the first hotel. The day after we were picked up by Joseph. Joseph was just what we asked for, just what we needed, he is a very proud Kenyan, with love for his country and safari! He drove us safely from hotel to every lodge. We felt very safe in the jeep, we felt like home! If you ever want to consider doing a safari, I can assure you that Balanite Safaris will not disappoint, they will fulfill a perfect experience in Kenya 🇰🇪. We fell in love with Kenya, and this beautiful nature, and they helped with that for 100%! Thank you Balanite Safaris, and thank you Joseph!

We had such an incredible experience with this safari tour operator! From the very beginning, the communication was clear, prompt, and professional, which made the whole booking process smooth and stress-free.

Our guide Ben was outstanding his knowledge of wildlife and the Maasai culture made the safari so much more meaningful. Every game drive felt like a masterclass in nature. We learned, laughed, and created memories we’ll cherish forever.

And the place itself? Simply magical. The scenery, the wildlife, the atmosphere — everything felt like something out of a dream. It’s an experience we will never forget.

Balanite made our honeymoon in Maasai Mara absolutely unforgettable. Every detail was taken care of — the private dinners, the sunrise drives, the little surprises along the way.

Paxton, our safari guide, made the 6 day venture so enjoyable. He was kind, competent, and quite knowledgeable. He had a calm, patient spirit. I appreciated his assertiveness when it came to finding opportunities for animal sightings. He was also adept at explaining the social behavior we were witnessing.

Balanite Safaris arrangements were simply excellent. Accommodations provided were superb. Tour planning was smooth, streamlined and very well organised. Couple of lodges they put us were beautiful and impressive. Our driver guide Paxton was very nice and knowledgable, the best part is their customer care, it is undoubtedly top notch.
