Africa Flash Mc Tours & Travel Reviews 53

We had a lovely time in our 3 day safari with Africa Flash McTours and Travel. Starting with a really easy and accommodating way of communication before the travels with Peter, to a really perfect trip in Masai Mara with our guide Edward!! We had so much fun, saw so many animals and learned so much about Kenyan wildlife. We stayed at Basecamp Masai Mara which was also a really nice location, good food and good vibes. Would book again with Flash McTours and Travel!

We travelled as a couple of two with Africa FlashMc in August/September 2021. We are avid and experienced photographers and bird/wildlife watchers.
Booking process: smooth, prompt and always taking our requests into account. Tailoring the trip to exactly our needs worked very well.
Overall handling of the trip: worked very well, all transfers were smooth, without hassle or delay. Connecting flight from the seaside into Nairobi was booked, transfer arranged – all well.
Hotel selection: according to our requests. Rooms were always booked in very good/best positions within the respective hotels. Except for one place all hotels were up to standard and in a good location.
Route: exactly to our requests.
Vehicle: up to standard, clean, fully operational. We strongly recommend booking of a full off-road vehicle with 4WD etc. Pop-up roofs provides best wildlife viewing.
Driver/Guide: well trained, experienced. Very friendly and attentive. Very open to our wishes and suggestions while also suggesting alternatives or improved variants. Knowledgeable about wildlife and birds (and building up expertise constantly!). Extremely attentive to our wishes as photographers (having the vehicle positioned in perfect angle for light and object). Very alert to spot wildlife and suggest photo stops. In a nutshell: best guide we ever had, will definitely travel with him again!
Overall: smooth, hassle free organization, cost benefit ration fully justified, attentive organization, great guide! We can fully recommend FlashMc.

From the beginning, Peter was great with helping us to plan our safari trip. He was super responsive and worked with us on the price. He detailed out the itinerary, the costs, and what was included and not included. He was able to book us at our preferred lodge, Sarova Mara Game Camp. He was able to book our hot air balloon ride and our village visit.

Once we arrived, Eddie was waiting for us at the airport and was our guide throughout the tour. He was knowledgable and friendly, timely, and experienced. The lodge accommodations were nice and the buffet was really good. The wifi was a bit spotty. Eddie was able to bring us back to the airport also when the tour was over.

We also chose this company because they had an ideal cancellation policy. We arrived a bit late on day one but we were able to fit in an evening game drive for one hour or so. The next day we did a full-day game drive and then went to the village in the early evening. The last day we did the hot air balloon ride in the early morning and then left for the airport.

It's important to note that with the 3-day option, you only get ONE FULL DAY for the game drive. But given that we've been on safari before it was enough for us. I'd recommend this tour company. Lastly, they went out of their way to return a lost item to me. Which I really appreciated.

We had the most amazing honeymoon on an 8-day safari (Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara) followed by 4 days in Zanzibar thanks to Africa Flashmc!

We chose Africa Flashmc to plan our safari because they came highly recommended by a friend, and we were looking to work with a local/Kenyan operator. We worked directly with Peter to plan our trip. Throughout the planning process, he was incredibly accommodating, giving us multiple options for the itinerary and lodging, and he was so responsive. We had to reschedule our safari twice: once due to Covid, and then a day-of flight cancellation. With the various lodges, flights, covid tests, and hotels involved, it seemed like a logistical nightmare, but Peter was always accommodating and made sure we still had the original experience we signed up for without any pushback.

Our tour guide was Simon and I can't say enough wonderful things about him! He was so kind and a pleasure to be around. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the parks and animals -- not to mention a very skilled off-roading driver. I don't think there was a single question we asked that he didn't know the answer to! I also really appreciate that he taught us a lot about Kenyan culture and even some Swahili. He was tireless and was willing to take us through the parks until we dropped. He made sure we saw the big five (multiple times over) and many other animals. You could tell he got along with the other guides as well, further proving what a genuinely good person he is.

Going on a safari may feel intimidating but both Peter and Simon made us feel 100% at ease and taken care of every step of the way -- we truly had no worries the entire trip, and the trip exceeded our wildest dreams. if we go back (which we hope we do) we would not hesitate to work with Africa Flashmc again.

I am very happy that I chose this company for doing an incredible 10-Day-Safari in Kenya. I spent 1 night in Nairobi, 2 in Amboseli, 1 in Lake Naivasha and 6 in Masai Mara. Peter organized the trip and the communication with him was great and easy. My guide for the whole trip was Edward and I can highly recommend to ask for him as your tour guide. He really made the safari special. I had a very good time with him and we had a lot of great sightings: an inredible amount of lions, cheetahs, leopards (all the big cats also with cubs and also lions and leopards mating), servals, a rhino, river crossings and so much more animals (elephants, buffalos, antelopes, monkeys...) and experiences. I have never seen so much on safari before! Edward always tried to get the car in the best position for viewing the animals so that I could get great photos. It was nice that everything was organized and I did not had to worry about anything but could enjoy every minute of the safari. The accomodations suggested by Peter were also great. I will never forget this holiday and have so many great memories of this trip. When I come back to Kenya, I will definitely book a trip with Edward and organized by Peter again!
Asante Edward and Peter!

Great service. First class service and luxury hotels or tented camps. We had a great time and saw all the big 5. Our guides were first class (Edward and John) and Peter in the back office did a great job keeping us informed and answering all our questions.

I took the 6 days 5 nights trip, we went to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru & Amobseli: the program was very clear and the guys were extremely honest and accurate with dates and timings. We were able to see almost all animals: Cheetah, Antelopes, Wildebeest, Elephant, Meerkat, Warthog, Giraffe, Lion, Jackal, Hyena, Vulture, Zebra, Buffalo, Monkey, Hippo, Crocodile, Ostrich, Rhino, Birds, Flamingo, Eagle.
Even I took the budget package, the place in Amobseli was beyond expectations: Kipo Safari Camp. But I would recommend to take a flight to Mombasa as well to relax after such a exciting tour.
Our drivers and guides were very informative and helpful. Peter is always there whenever you need him, or if you have any inquires. No words can describe how amazing was it. Thank you loads.

I’ve done 2 private personally organized luxury itineraries with this company and have referred many friends as well. While much of what they do are affordable group safaris, my personal private luxury safari, painstakingly organized by myself (at my request) and Peter, were absolutely perfect and exactly as I wanted. I’d highly recommend this company.

My wife and I with our 2 young children (aged 4&7) did a 2 week family safari with Africa Flash McTours in January 2020 and absolutely loved it! I have been a travel professional in Europe for 20+ years and have nothing but praise for Peter and his team from first contact in early 2019 through until the follow up correspondence after returning home and our continuing communication now.
When first considering our Kenya safari I advised Peter of our preferences regarding hotel/tented camp styles, preferred experiences etc. He provided us with all of the options, and over the course of a couple of months continued to answer my many questions up until the moment we finalised our safari itinerary and made the booking.
We did a private safari visiting Nairobi (Giraffe centre,Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage & Karen Blixen House/Museum), Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli & Tsavo West National Parks. All of the accommodation as suggested and booked by Africa Flash McTours was excellent. The staff always went above and beyond, tents & rooms were immaculate and the food was excellent. Our 4wd safari jeep was excellent. As it was a 9 seater there was plenty of room for us to spread out, the windows were huge and perfect for game viewing, as well as the pop-up top. We always looked forward to climbing into it for another game driving adventure, and it was always spotlessly cleaned before we set off.
Our driver-guide Edward is a superstar. Always with a smile on his face and happy to share his knowledge on everything Kenyan. He knows every inch of the savannahs and the African bush and I'm sure he has a bionic eye for spotting the wildlife, for which he has wealth of knowledge! Our children loved Eddie and he was always great with them and made their trip a lot of fun.
As for the country, we love Kenya. The people, the landscapes, and of course the wildlife. We saw the Big 5, the Little 5, the Ugly 5 and all of the other 5's many times over, learned a lot and took great pics.Stories to tell and memories for a lifetime!
We are very thankful to have enjoyed our time with Eddie, Peter & Africa Flash McTours, and I would recommend them to anybody. We look forward to travelling with them again in the future. Asante sana!

Peter and the entire team at Africa Flash McTours are the best in the trade. Peter is very approachable, flexible and professional in design, preparation, execution of the tours. He and th team provided various possible options, customised the design as per needs of our family /friends and they did it all with all the warmth and smiles on faces.
Guides are the best too and they make the safari experience so memorable by allowing you to be with the best of nature that Kenya/East Africa has to offer, from the closeness and comfort of your safari vehicle.

I and my family /friends did all our safari tours with Peter and his company when we were living /working in Kenya. Every safari experience was awesome, unique and fulfilling thanks to Africa Flash McTours. I still miss those great moments and wish that I would be able to be back in the bush one day again in future!
Thanks Peter and team , great service and keep doing the great work. All the best. Asante Sana...

A fantastic and exciting safari! I thank Peter and his guides at Africa FlashMc Tours for their care of my friend and I last October - they really cared for our safety and comfort whilst giving us an affordable private trip with really knowledgeable guides who were also happy to be flexible to meet our preferences and needs. Highly recommend this company to anyone considering a safari.

I was extremely luckily that my traveling companion from Australia invited me to join her in the Safari she had booked on FlashMctours. I did not research or make the decision to book FlashMctours but I am delighted to recommend them. The Safari was 7 days in Kenya and Tanzania.

Peter, Operations Manager was extremely helpful in answering all my questions regarding the safari and not only recommended a place to stay the night before my friend arrived, but also made arrangements to meet her at the airport and start the Safari.

Our guide in Tanzania Anthony in Tanzania was not only knowledgeable, but also very personable who not only shared his culture, family, country and of course his understanding of the animals and had a terrific personality. Victor our guide in Tanzania was also very knowledgeable about his culture, country and the animals.

Our accommodations were what they were advertised and some even better than we expected. It was truly a trip of a lifetime. Being on a safari is not like any other experience in traveling. Seeing the animals in their own habitat is truly amazing. I appreciated all the work that FlashMctours, specially Peter, Anthony and Victor for making it one of the best trips I’ve ever taken.
