What Our Guests Say:

Jones Gareth

We had a great experience with Mara Wanderlust! Everything worked out right from the beginning to the end.

We initially contacted many agencies, but settled on Mara Wanderlust because their agent, Vincent, was quick to respond to our enquiries and had realistic answers to all our questions. Their itinerary was also easy to understand.

Sayani Desgupta

So where do I start from?
My husband and I always wanted to do this and finally booked a private safari with The Mara Wanderlust for Masai Mara and Naivasha to celebrate our anniversary. It was the best decision ever.

Everything we wanted to do was perfectly arranged by Naomi starting from the pickup till the drop off back at the airport. These guys will make your experience be the best one ever. The entire experience far exceeded our expectations.

Ellen Deschavez

Naomi Kebbono is a master of her craft, she turns every trip into a seamless, unforgettable story.

My first stop was Nairobi National Park, a place where the wild meets the city. Just a few miles from the skyscrapers, I found myself surrounded by vast open plains, dotted with giraffes, zebras, and the occasional lion lounging in the sun. The contrast of wildlife against the backdrop of Nairobi’s skyline was surreal.
