So Many Animals!

sandra c, Oct 2019

Off to a bit of a rough start, but things smoothed out later. We landed in Nairobi late, tried to confirm our tour was picking us up at the right hotel but Besh Adventures told us they never received payment from Viator (we paid Viator the previous month). Called Viator, they said payment was made and contacted Besh to no avail. When Besh arrived, they said we needed to pay again or we couldn't go on the tour. They asked for a cash payment, drove us to an atm but we insisted that we could only pay via credit card. This resulted in a 2 hour drive in Nairobi to their sister office to pay by credit card. Besh did contact Viator to tell them we paid in-person so Viator issued a refund of the first payment. Not sure who's fault it was but seems like some back office confusion resulted in hours of lost time (so definitely confirm your reservation and pick multiple times before you depart for Nairobi). We also did not get the lodging we thought we booked. Again, not sure if this is a Viator issue or Besh Adventure issue. On the Viator website, it says Base Camp. I called Viator before I booked and they confirmed we would be paying for and staying at Base Camp (located inside Masai Mara). Upon arrival to the Masai Mara, we were put at Rhino Tourist Camp (which is located outside of the Masai Mara). Rhino tourist camp was meh - read the reviews on that. Besh did their best to make up for the confusion and was very apologetic. Back to the trip...bring some snacks and be prepared for mind numbing traffic in Nairobi with terrible smog. Once you get outside of the city, most roads are 2 lane roads with random citizen made check points. It's a good 4-5 hour drive to the park. Our driver (Ambrose) was great. Very aggressive (which is what you need or you'd be stuck in traffic for hours more). Apparently everyone off roads there just to get around traffic. Overall, we missed the migration but there was still so many animals. Elephants, giraffes, buffalo, cheetahs, lions, hyenas, crocs, the list goes on. We saw a fresh kill (lion was still eating the poor antelope), saw lions mating, etc. The scenery is akin to being in a postcard. Definitely recommend this trip, just confirm all reservations (multiple times) with both Viator and the tour group before arriving.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Dear Sandra, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are very sorry for the confusion you experienced during your booking. The issue was caused by a delay in communication between Viator’s system and our team, which unfortunately led to an unintended change in the lodge you expected. We want to reassure you that when clients book directly with Besh African Adventures, their accommodation and itinerary are confirmed with us in advance to avoid such mix-ups. Since your trip, we have strengthened our coordination with third-party platforms, such as Viator, to ensure that all bookings are communicated to us in a timely manner and with complete details. We are delighted to hear that you still enjoyed your safari and that our guide made your experience memorable. We truly value your trust and would be honored to welcome you back for a seamless, fully customized safari in the future. Warm regards, Chepkoech Beryl CEO, Besh African Adventures
