KMC0012024-09-30Verified First trip to Kenya, wonderful experience I was fortunate enough to experience Kenya for the first time with Ben at Cryptic Safaris. It was wonderful visiting Nairobi and three other conservancies and parks. We benefited from Ben's experience and deep knowledge of animals and birds and had an opportunity to sample the best of what Kenya has to offer. From pick-up at the airport to return everything was seamless. The hotels and lodges had been chosen carefully and all of the transfers were well organized. Ben and his team could not have taken better care of us. I am looking forward to future adventures with Cryptic Safaris! Mame902022-11-15Verified Top Notch Experience!! I wish I could give even more bubbles in my rating....so wonderful was this experience!I have traveled with Ben and his team before and have never been disappointed. Time and time again my expectations are exceeded...a feat which becomes increasingly difficult over time. How many times can you raise the bar?Everything was top-notch: the itinerary, accommodations, logistics, hand-offs, transportation, expertise, etc....nothing was left to chance and, more importantly, I knew that I did not need to worry about any of the details.Ben (and the others on his team) are incredibly knowledgeable and skilled and demonstrate a more-than-healthy respect for the environment and the wildlife. If you are looking for the type of experience where rules are broken and animals harassed in order to get a better photo, then this may not be the experience for you.But if you are seeking a meaningful experience that provides a multitude of opportunities to take in the natural beauty of Kenya and to observe the lives/behaviors of the animals that live there, then you can't go wrong with Cryptic. Pathfinder2101872022-09-10Verified Spectacular! This was my first trip to Kenya but certainly not my last. Ben and his colleagues provided a life changing experience, sharing their expert knowledge of the wildlife- elephants, cats, birds, and so much more. I can't wait o see what else they have to offer. 202noworries2022-06-20Verified Wonderful Safari! I spent 10 days with Ben and Cryptic Safaris in March of 2021. Not only were the logistics and accommodations excellent, Ben and his fellow guide Mo, are accomplished ornithologists, as well as cat and lion experts. It was such a wonderful and life-altering experience, I am going back in August during the migration for almost 3 weeks.
