Tamara Z2025-04-17Verified Amazing Safari in Masai Mara We found Best Camping Tour in a guide book and thanks to that book! We were able to get in touch with Imran who took the time to explain every possibilities and then making sure that every aspect of our tour was exactly how we imagined. The campsite is really nice, situated next to a river between the threes. The landscape view is wonderfull. We were taken care of by some super friendly locals whom were part of the staff. During the safari, we were able to see plenty of animals. Amazing experience. NSM06122025-03-01Verified Really the best We have been going to Best Camping since 2013 and have visited 5 times so far including 2 in the last one year. In every instance, Imraan and team has taken absolute care. . This trip was a 6 nights to Masai Mara with my father of 70 plus years. The entire plan was drawn up in less than 2 days. Imraan is always available and responds in minutes. The personal attention (and it is personal) is really appreciable. The last 6 days with Simon on this trip was great fun. Simon is 62, but his enthusiasm for seeing and showing you the wonderful wildlife and sceneries of masai Mara are of a teenager! We drove off every day at 6 AM and returned at 7 PM with a short lunch break. Each drive was engaging and lead to new experiences.We stayed at Keekorok and Fig tree camp. Thank you Imaan and Simon! Can’t wait for next time! Luca S2025-02-24Verified A really great safari We did a 5-day safari with Best Camping Tours and it was great! We stayed 3 nights in the Masai Mara, one night at Lake Nakuru and one night at Ol Pejeta and were very impressed with all the accommodation. The planning with Imraan was very easy and in our case even very spontaneous. He was also available around the clock to answer to all our questions.Special thanks to our driver Abdallah, who had incredible experience and was even able to show us all the Big 5. We also learned a lot about the country, its people, society, politics and cuisine from him, not only during the game drives but also over dinners together! We will definitely recommend the company! Zarif K2025-02-16Verified Best camping is the best I can't thank Best Camping enough for the amazing experience and the professional service. My wife and I did the 7 day experience starting at Masaai Mara and ended up at Amboseli game reserve. The planning was spot on and the accomodation and locations of each were top class. Our driver, guide and now friend - Abdullah - made the experience so fulfilling. His knowledge of wildlife, cultures and history made the trip worthwhile alone. He is a local celebrity with all the other drivers, hotel staff and locals so happy to see him. We managed to see the big 5 many times over and have so many memories to take away. Thank you so much Imraan and team for the great service and wonderful experience. Mui2025-02-03Verified Awe-inspiring time in Masai Mara & Lake Nakuru with Best Camping Tours We had a wonderful tour with Best Camping Tours. Our guide, Abdallah, was so committed & ensured we saw all the Big-5s & so much more. The cheetahs in Masai Mara were awe inspiring. And the rhinos in Lake Nakuru were simply phenomenal. Will definitely recommend Best Camping to all our friends & family! Prabhu F2025-01-07Verified A Memorable Kenyan Adventure with Best Camping From the very beginning, Imraan and his team at Best Camping exceeded our expectations. They worked closely with us, accommodating our suggestions and lodging preferences. Even as our plans evolved over the year—adding options and then revisiting earlier decisions—Imraan remained patient and supportive while we finalized the itinerary.Once we landed in Nairobi, Imraan and Shifana made us feel at home and ease. Abdallah, our guide and driver, was incredibly knowledgeable - particularly, his ability to pick out birds and then refer to them in his book was awesome. We had a great time on the Safaris themselves, seeing all the big 5 and enjoying the various birds in Nakuru.Abdallah went out of his way to showcase Kenya's beauty and hospitality. When our transfer day took longer than expected during to traffic jams, he ensured the hotel was informed and made up for it by arranging an early morning safari the next day. On our final day, after a full-day safari, we mentioned not wanting to leave Kenya—and Abdallah graciously offered to take us on an evening safari as well, without hesitation. His kindness and enthusiasm never wavered. When we told him we loved the Kenyan-style chapati, he even took us to a local shop to buy Kenyan flour to bring back home.We can’t conclude this review without mentioning Thomas, who provided excellent local support in Nairobi. Best Camping truly went above and beyond to pamper us, and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Overall we loved the Amboseli -> Nakuru -> Mara trip (we skipped the Naivasha day) and hope to be back soon. Markus2025-01-06Verified Amazing 11-Day Tour With our 3 children (7, 9 and 12 years) we did an 11-day private safari tour with Best Camping. Start and finish was Nairobi with the following stations: Lake Nakuru, Lake Elementita, Lake Naivasha (with Hells Gate NP and Mount Longonot) and Masai Mara. With Paul we had a great driver and guide. We were well looked after at all times and had wonderful and extensive game drives. Imraan was also always available for questions. In the Masai Mara we stayed at the Best Camping Camp. If you like it simple and authentic, just like us, you are in good hands there. We were super looked after and cooked by the team on site. Thanks to the whole Best Camping team. These were 11 very impressive days on a super safari that we will never forget. We would book at any time again at Best Camping. Sharfoon P2024-11-25Verified The best safari holiday for my daughter who was visiting Masai Mara for the first time. Got some lovely pictures of the We had the best time in Kenya during our recent trip to Masai Mara and Mombasa. We are extremely grateful to Imraan Nanji of Best Camping Tours for planning the entire trip for us during our stay in Kenya. Really appreciate Imran’s prompt responses to all queries and concerns not only during our stay there but right from the time we decided to plan for this trip . He was always in touch with us, and we were assisted at every step whenever required, which made us feel very comfortable.A friendly and well experienced guide was with us throughout our stay at Masai Mara, which was a blessing. We saw the big five in Masai Mara, which was all excitement for my daughter, who was travelling there for the first time. Imraan also helped us book our tickets to and from Mombasa and also arrange a driver for us while we were at the coast. I would strongly recommend Best Camping Tours to all those who are looking forward to a visit to Kenya.

Sadru P2024-10-10Verified Excellent professional service ! Best Camping Tours and Safaris was highly recommended by a family member who frequents Kenya regularly from England and only uses them for friends and family. The service has been excellent and tours and hotels top notch. When I mentioned them to local relatives in Nairobi I was advised it was the best choice and again highly recommended! Thank you for making my holiday memorable.
