I had the pleasure of booking trips with Heartland Safaris to Naivasha, Samburu, Nkasiri, Camp Ndunda, Sirville Lodge, and even Mombasa and I was more satisfied with the entire experience.

I am very specific in what I want for my vacation and in most cases, despite paying premium prices I normally don't get what I specifically ask for. Heartland Safaris however met and surpassed my expectation. This is the one vacation that I got value for my money. I was especially impressed by their customer service. I highly recommend the company and look forward to traveling with them again.
