Maggie and her team made this unquestionably the best trip of our lifetime. Our first safari experience in Masai Mara was an unforgettable. Planning our trip through Bison was hassle free and extremely easy. We were grateful that we had selected a company with such expertise and knowledge tailored to our choices. They were so easy to work with. They replied to all our queries and emails promptly, giving us lots of options.
Maasai Mara was spectacular, from the big five to the breath-taking landscapes and abundant wildlife and birds. The safari was the most memorable.

We had an amazing experience with Peter in Maasai Mara. He is an excellent professional, knows very well the field, good driver and very serious about every detail concerning this trip. I would recommend this company to my family and friends without any doubt. Safe and reliable.

The safari was excellent, our driver was both knowledgeable and an excellent driver. We saw a lot, enjoyed the company and had a very fun trip. We were picked up close to the advertised time and dropped off even before the scheduled time. We had plenty of food and loved eating lunch with the giraffe. Our camp was neat and clean with meals on time and quite tasty. We would use Bison safaris again.

Let me express my sincere gratitude and appreciation for your cooperation. Thanks to you and your colleagues, the well-organized program during my stay in Kenya allowed me to take a closer look at your country, to feel and understand its nature, its character, to come closer to its people, to get new friends and partners that made possible to me finding new ways for bilateral contacts.
Such chances and possibilities will surely contribute to further development of economic ties and tourism between our countries and also might open new ways to mutually beneficial cooperation.
My special thanks goes to Maggie and our perfect driver, guide and simply a very good friend Peter for the unforgettable safari and comfortable transfer and accommodation. What a pity that we didn’t have enough time to discover all the beauties of the Kenya National Parks and the Kenya wildlife. But it simply gives us one more occasion to come back with new expectations.
Once again, thank you for all you have already done for us and accept my best wishes and good luck in your future endeavors.

Couldn't recommend Bison Safaris highly enough. We just had a fantastic time doing 5 days safari tour, and everything was exceeding expectation.

We booked quite far in advance for our honeymoon, and everything was communicated clearly throughout.
Our guide Peter is very kind, knowledgeable and go above and beyond to ensure we make most of our time in the safari. We manage to see all the big five and more so couldn't be happier.

The camp recommendation was great, my wife and I was over the moon with it. Will definitely use Bison Safaris again should we visit more safari in the future.

I had booked my trip thru Ms. Maggie, and she was very helpful. The accommodation and other arrangements were really good. I was very much apprehensive and worried about the trip, but everything went off very well. It was well organized. The driver Mr. James was also very good.

Took my family for a 3 Day private Safari and it did not disappoint. Bison Safaris was very responsive during planning, proving clear direction on all options and itinerary. Colins, the tour guide, was very knowledgeable had perfect daily plans that were greatly executed. We were able to see the big 5 plus other animals. We will definitely book with Bison Safaris again in the future.

After having a bad experience with another safari company, we decided to go with Bison safaris after thoroughly reviewing them. Maggie (managing director) co-operated very well and answered all our questions helping us to feel secure.
The whole trip was very well, we had a knowledgeable safari guide (James), who was very easy to get along with and really engaged. He helped us to best spots to view the animals.
We had a wonderful safari; it could not have been better. We saw the big 5 and much more!

The Masai Mara safari was the most exciting experience of my life. We had the best guide who did his best to show us as many animals and the beauty of Kenya as possible. Thanks Aruni for the amazing experience you gave me. I would be very happy to come to Kenya again and go on safari with you!

We had the greatest experience with Bison Safaris. We went for a 4 day private safari from Nairobi to Amboseli and Tsavo East and finished in Diani Beach. Our guide, Paul is a great person - very knowledgeable, experience and patient to all our questions. For the first 2 days there was also a cook, Fred who was traveling with us and preparing our meals - it was the most delicious food we had in Africa (and we visited a few good restaurants during our trip). The communication with Maggie before the safari was also very pleasant and the trip was organized very well. I would give 6 stars if it was possible! Thank you Bison Safaris!

A wonderful experience on the 4-day tour to the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Our guide, Evans, did an outstanding job taking care of us and was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and the area. We had plenty of time to see the big animals as well as many birds and they were all spectacular. The lodging was very nice and the food was good. Overall a great safari!
