Kenya – 4-Day Tsavo West, Amboseli & Tsavo East Safari
Indigo Safaris provided transportation from the Mombasa port to Amboseli and Tsavo parks for four days for our 20 year old children and four friends They saw so much wildlife. Douglas was an amazing guide. The luxury accommodations and food were excellent. It was an extraordinary lifetime experience for them. We cannot wait to go there next year with Indigo Safaris guiding our way to a Kenyan safaris. Thank you so much!
Mara, Naivasha, Amboseli, Tsavo Safari
Superb service setting this amazing trip up with two weeks notice.
Kenya – 14-day Tailor-made Kenya Safari & Beach Break
We had an outstanding experience with Indigo Safaris! Kerry crafted our Kenyan trip to perfection, tailoring every detail to our preferences. Our adventure included game drives through Masai Mara, Nairobi National Park, Amboseli, and Tsavo West. Kerry's advice was invaluable, particularly her suggestion to visit Lake Naivasha, which turned out to be an incredibly unique and worthwhile stop.
Every lodge we stayed at was exceptional, offering perfect accommodations, delicious food, and warm, welcoming staff. We truly appreciated Kerry's reliable guidance, sound advice, and excellent recommendations throughout the trip.
Overall, I cannot recommend Indigo Safaris highly enough. Although it was a significant investment for us, the trip truly delivered incredible value.
