If you want to "experience" Kenya and not just visit,  Kwato Safaris is the way to go.  Having an experienced, trust worthy, knowledgeable, and down right "cool" guide will set your trip apart from the others.  They enjoy getting to know you and in turn you get to know them personally.  Michael loves his job and you feel that when you're in his company.  His knowledge on the climate, animals and their behaviors, local tribes, culture, history, cuisine, etc.., gives  you the 3-D experience you deserve.  Michael can "sense" where some of the harder to find animals are, leaving you in awe of what you see.   He was attentive to our needs and quickly adapted to our interests. (Frequent stops for photo ops or shopping for example). Kwato will make your safari an unforgettable trip of a lifetime.  Kenya is a treasure of gems and is a must see.  Hope to go again, and Michael is second to none.
