When looking for a last minute January break, I came across African Breeze Tours online. As a professional photographer based in the UK, I thought a Kenyan safari would be an ideal opportunity to see a new country and some interesting wildlife... and I wasn't disappointed!
Cate at African breeze was very helpful right from the start, providing me with useful information about the various packages to suit my requirements, right through to joining in with the Hell's Gate mountain-bike safari so that I would have some company!
I opted for the 5 day, budget safari package, spending 3 days in the Masai Mara, 1 day in Naivasha and another day in Nakuru. I was travelling solo so joined a larger, mixed group for the first days - I'm not sure if it was luck but they were all very friendly and any initial apprehension was short-lived. I was very impressed by the knowledge and general helpful nature of the tour guides throughout the trip and they enabled the group to see some fantastic wildlife. I saw cheetahs, lions, elephants, giraffes, buffalo, hippos, rhinos, hyenas and all manner of incredible eagles and other birdlife.

I knew this was going to be a budget safari so accommodation was basic but more than acceptable. The food provided was copious and provided enough variation. I wasn't looking for luxury, I was wanting adventure and African Breeze Tours certainly delivered! Thanks a lot!!
P.S. The highlight of the trip for me was the boat safari on Lake Naivasha - the fish eagles and kingfishers were incredible!!

What a fantastic tour we had.. I give all credit to our tour driver/guide. He was great at telling us all about the animals we were seeing and getting us to them and much everything else.
He kept the vibe going and was a pleasure to be around...
Remember to book your tour with African breeze.
It's a different experience watching animals in the wild and nature compared to watching them in an enclosure or even conservation projects.
Luckily our guide Mr. Brian is a pro of his job. Off road driving, searching for trails and clues where to find the animals, giving us interesting facts and trivias.....
It was an awesome experience.
Mmmh....might sound cliche but there is nothing impressive like being in a Kenyan bush Safari. A safari with Mr John from African Breeze Safari is one of the best vacations I've ever had and would like to keep experiencing.
My family and I couldn't have enough of his time and his heart wrenching guidance throught our trip.
I would choose this tour guide over and over
The whole experience from start to finish was fantastic.Our guide John was punctual and very communicative on what's app meaning pick up was extremely seamless.
John did everything humanly possible to make the trip amazing including lending out his binoculars, pointing out all animals while providing factual information about the wildlife and nature.
Thanks for the interesting time we spent together and I will definitely recommend them.
We can fully recommend organizing a trip with African Breeze tours.
Our experience was one of a kind !Tour guide John was super knowledgeable and friendly.He helped us understand more about nature and was available for every request.
I couldn't imagine a better experience that I encountered on my first wildlife trip...
thanks to the Cate the lead consultant and John our tour guide and the entire group for making us wildlife enthusiast .
our team loved the guide led by cate and her partners.We had an incredible time with MR john our tour guide.He was very knowledgeable about the wild animals and nature in general and so helpful helping us sort the park entry when our cards kept failing.
It was a marvelous reunion with my family and decided on taking them for a tour. From the moment we were picked home by James, Cate's driver, the professionalism in him was up to standard. He knew his way around the park and best stops for catching the big five. Our safari to Maasai mara was to exciting, the camp that we were booked was its own class and finally we were dropped home safe. I would recommend my friends to use this company.

It was a time to remember when I and my long lost friend decided on taking a safari in Kenya. From the pick up from the airport, the services were up to point. Drive was smooth despite the crazy traffic in Nairobi. Cate and her team booked us in a very good environment hotel and her driver was so excellent, friendly and knew the whereabouts of whatever we wanted to know and see on our game drives. With this I give the company a 10
As from the time I was picked from JKIA, Cate ensured that I and my fiancé arrived to the hotel on time. The driver, Simon, was friendly and he was the one we used all through our stay and drives in the parks. With both Cate and driver's know how on what we actual wanted, our stay was smooth and marvelous
We had an incredible time on our safari here. This was our first time on a safari and the team was extremely helpful and responsive. Catherine even went above and beyond to help us with late-night visa issues on our way to Kenya (make sure to get an e-visa ahead of time!!). Zac was another fantastic driver guide, very friendly and knowledgeable, very skillful at maneuvering rough terrain, and had a great feel for the pacing of the game drive. We stayed at a very clean camp, staff friendly, and the food tasty. Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru are astounding. We were able to see a wide variety of animals at the tail end of the Great Migration, and there were lots of baby animals this time of year as well! Overall, i quite recommend the team more highly.
