The expert for tailor-made safaris in Kenya and Tanzania

Marco Polo Safari – Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha + Crescent Island, Hells Gate & Tsavo East Amazing experience! Everything was well-organized with a professional and friendly team. Everyone was very helpful and flexible.

A huge thanks to our guide Bonface – he was knowledgeable, kind, and made the trip unforgettable. We saw so much wildlife thanks to him.

Highly recommend Marco Polo Safari for anyone looking for a reliable and personal safari experience!

8 day Safari We did an 8 day safari going through Masi Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli and Tsavo East. We were picked up from Nairobi airport and then started the Safari, ending on the coast at Diani Beach where we spend a few nights before flying back to Nairobi.
We booked with Marco via their website and confirmed all the details over email and whatsapp. Marco was very helpful and answered all our questions (we also requested a cycle trip at Hells Gate which Marco arranged for us). We paid a 50% deposit by bank transfer and the balance was paid to the driver at the start of the safari in USD cash. The reason for the cash payment is because it is needed to pay the park and lodge fees (this is normal practice).
The safari itself was amazing, we travelled and did the game drives in a large jeep where the roof can be risen allowing you to stand up and get a 360 view of all the animals around you. We saw the big five and many many more animals.
Our driver was called Michael and was wonderful. He was incredibly knowledgeable about all the animals, parks and landscapes. He is also well connected with the other game drivers and they work together to find the animals so you have the best chance of seeing them. We visited 5 different parks which meant a lot of different terrains and weather conditions, Michael knew all the parks well (which is not very common as most drivers only go to 1 or 2 parks). He is also a skilled driver in terms of managing the different weather conditions so we always felt very safe.
The accommodation Marco arranged was all very nice and luxurious (mainly tented camps and lodges), we felt very spoilt!
We went go to Diani Beach Marco also helped us with arranging a snorkeling trip.
I cannot recommend Marco and Michael enough, our safari trip was perfectly organised and such an amazing experience.

Really nice experience! We were 6 friends from Paris who wanted to do a 2 days / 1 night Safari in Massai Mara from Ukunda. Marco booked us a night in Governors Camp with the plane, the driver, the game drive and the food included. 880€ per person. The experience was wonderful: the lodge is perfect in the middle of the nature close to the Massai River, surrounded by animals. We saw all the big 5 (except Rhino). The food was perfect. Service perfect. Really nice people. Marco was reactive has we asked. No negative points ✅

AMAZING SAFARI WITH MARCO POLO!! Our safari with Marco Polo in Diani was an amazing experience! The safari in Tsavo was absolutely fantastic we saw so many wild animals in their natural habitat. The trip was well-organized, and we felt completely at ease.

Bonface, our guide, was truly a gem of a person! He took his time to show us everything and made sure we got a good view of the wildlife. His knowledge of nature and the animals in Tsavo is impressive, and he shared interesting information in a way that was easy to understand.

What I particularly appreciated was that Bonface always made clear agreements about where and when we would stop, so everyone could fully enjoy the experience without feeling rushed. It wasn’t just a safari, but also an informative and relaxed experience where you really got the sense of understanding nature better.

All in all, it was a fantastic experience and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to explore the wildlife and nature of Kenya!

Professional travel agency We booked a 1-day safari. First good impression. Our driver was there before time and handed over some cool water bottles. Since there were two of us with Amos, we had the pleasure of a private safari. Other providers cancel here partly with too few participants.As it turned out later, our driver Amos was really great. Not only did he track down and expertly describe more animals during the safari, he was also there when our vehicle had a flat tire and was able to repair it expertly and quickly. In the meantime, we spoke on the phone with Marco, who, as the head of the travel agency, proactively inquired about our well-being and apologized for the inconvenience. Very well done!All around a nice day with good experiences.

Fantastic journey and experiance The views were amazing! We saw 4 big animal: lion, elephant, giraffe and hipo. Driver Amos is very good searcher animals. He noticed animals in the smallest nooks. It wsa fantastic journey!
