Wonderful in all ways Sara and her guides are fantastic people who know the park well and are excellent and safe drivers. We did a three night Safari with them and the camp they had to stay in was very clean and pretty and immersive in the African nature. We also got to see a Masai Village and even spent time in the homes of the Masai. I was with my daughter and it was a very special experience to have together.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Seamless experience I contacted the company from the UK. I was apprehensive about what company to use. From the first correspondence Sovereign Adventures put my mind at ease. I quickly receieved a detailed itinerary and price that I was happy with. I had a few questions before travelling which were all answered quickly and effectively by Julius. I was given a WhatsApp number before travelling for easy communication on arrival. Sovereign Adventures sorted everything for us, taxi from the airport, hotel before and after our safari and everything in between. We stayed at the Crowne Plaza before and after our safari which was an amazing hotel with everything we needed. Julius met us on the morning of our safari and introduced us to our tour guide Francis. We opted for a private safari which I would recommend. We were given a safari hat and water bottle which I thought was a nice touch. We stayed at Zebra Plains Camp which exceeded my expectations, the accommodation, food and service was great. We even saw giraffes whilst sunbathing at the pool. Having a beer and watching the sunset from the bar was surreal. Our guide Francis made our safari unforgettable. We saw so many animals and he clearly had a lot of knowledge of the Masai Mara. He was happy to answer any questions we had and made our experience that little bit more special. Overall I would recommend Sovereign Adventures to anyone. We felt safe and looked after throughout our whole trip and they go above and beyond for their customers. We travelled independently after our safari and the company checked in with us to see how we were getting on. Thank you Sovereign Adventures for an amazing experiencePosted on Tripadvisor![]()
