Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We went to Kenya (to Malindi to be precise) in a group of 6 friends and relied completely on Baraka for daily activities. We first met him by booking the Safari from Italy (2 full days in Tsavo East). Deposit from Italy and balance on site without any problem. Baraka is originally from Kenya, but lives in Bologna for part of the year, so he knows Italian and Italian perfectly. In fact, at our request to organize the other days, he always proposed perfect trips and activities, all smoothly and at a competitive price (all inclusive, including food and transport). For the trips, a note of merit to the guides Pace and Jeremiah, able to immerse you in the culture of a country with a history but also a difficult present.
About the safari, we were really lucky to see all the animals in the park, including the lion and cheetah, but luck is combined with the incredible ability of our driver Ali, for friends Gattuso: he drove 2 days continuously with the sole purpose of finding as many animals as possible and complying with our every request. Accommodation in the park, the Lion Hill Lodge also left us very satisfied, especially for where it is located (above a hill overlooking the park).
In conclusion: if you want a serious and reliable agency for your holidays in Kenya, contact Baraka without hesitation!

We organized our trip entirely with Baraka from Italy and we could not have made a better choice! In one week we combined 3 days of safari between East Tsavo and Amboseli and the remaining for the sea stay. From the first contact by email, we immediately understood the precise organization, professionalism and attention they reserve to their customers and in fact every day of our stay both in the Lodges during the safari and in Watamu we were followed carefully so as never to miss anything. A special thanks to Mago, Michael, Ismail for the delicious meals and Swadi 😊
During the safari we were accompanied by Mago (the guide) and Diego (the ranger). Diego is an expert on the road and has masterfully handled every difficulty encountered, from wheel change to bogged down roads! He was always super focused and went out of his way to find and show us the animals from the best spots on the savannah (we couldn't see just the leopard and rhino, but Nala and the cubs, and the lion who walked alongside our jeep are unforgettable!). Thanks to his knowledge, however, Mago has introduced us to the habits, curiosities and culture of Kenya and its fauna! Mago and Diego together are a perfect combination to fully enjoy the safari and with them is really EVERYTHING POSSIBLE!
In short, Africa’s disease exists and we are experiencing it. For this reason we are already thinking of contacting Baraka for a new experience! Maybe this time Masai Mara..!!! Many thanks to Baraka, Monica and all their collaborators 😊

We chose Baraka Safari to realize our dream of a long Safari in Kenya. Everything went as planned, from the airport transfer to the end of the trip. Our Guide Musembi did not miss anything, always smiling kind and prepared with his excellent Italian. Also the Driver very good and thanks to him and Musembi we could see all the big 5. We visited 5 different parks in 6 days, the lodges chosen in the superior category all very beautiful and always inside the parks or a few meters from the entrance, essential to make good use of the time of the game drives. Guide and driver have always tried to satisfy us even extending the duration of individual game drives especially if there was the possibility of spotting some particularly exciting animal or scene (such as the lioness with her 5 cubs that gave us the last emotion of the last day). Baraka Safari absolutely recommended 🩷

First experience in Kenya for us and honestly I can only say nice things about the Baraka organization.
Nothing left to chance, absolute punctuality maximum safety both during the Safari and on long journeys between one park and another, the beauty of not having to think about anything for the whole holiday.
The Safari experience is obviously unique, but lived in pairs with a private car acquires even more charm.
A special mention for Ringi and Sammy our Driver and our Guide, friends as well as great professionals, without whom the trip would not have been the same.

By chance I came across wandering on the Internet in this agency and after reading many reviews, I got in touch with the owner, Baraka who immediately gave me a very good impression. I have to say that it was a great experience, I asked Baraka for a quote on what I wanted to do (Safari Tsavo East and Amboseli with sea stay post Safari) and everything went very well, from Safaris with a very expert and kind guide, to the stay at Villa Monica, complete with every comfort, with staff trained in every detail. Thanks to Baraka and Monica, we absolutely must return

Spectacular experience with Baraka!
We trusted some friends who had already lived this fantastic experience... forget the comforts, leave the frenzy and anxiety at home, let them guide you... do not follow the paved roads and let yourself be guided inside real life, simple... and you will return home with a better awareness of yourself and the world!
The photos, they'll say everything else...

I booked various excursions with Baraka before departure, he was immediately available.
A person, together with his truly fantastic and reliable collaborators.
Excellent prices and always available for any doubt or curiosity.
We did two days in Tsavo, the African life excursion and the mangrove island. I highly recommend him, he even contacted me during the excursion to find out how it was going. Really top.
Absolutely worth doing again ❤️🇰🇪

Holiday a little slow the first 2 days. Then luckily we found some very reliable kenya safari Baraka guys. They made us take a full immersion holiday with visits to lions, giraffes, elephants, zebras, all of them, they organized trips to the most important cities such as Malindi, mini cruise with lobster lunch in the groyère, taken to local craft markets, helping us to negotiate on prices, accompanied in the most exclusive discos, to end up on a spectacular sunset with aperitif offered by them. And then again phone cards, tuc tuc, in short as if we had gone on vacation to visit friends.
P.s. the prices? Very honest.

Amazing experience!
Baraka was incredibly accommodating from the very first contact, taking into account all our needs and organising every detail flawlessly.
During the safari in tsavo east, we had the chance to see all the animals we hoped to see.
The accommodation he selected was comfortable and he consistently ensured everything was going smoothly for us.
Thank you so much for this unforgettable adventure!

The Safari organized together with Baraka and 'was perfect from all points of view: excellent organization and availability from the first contacts, availability to decide together the places to see (we had some places that we wanted to visit), great advice, lots of patience.
The fantastic lodges
Ringi, our Guide, very clever
We did a 7-day Safari (masai Mara-naivasha -nakuru-samburu)..2 adults and two boys aged 11 and 13
E'stato tutto magico...!!!

Se prenoto dall italia contattando un beach boys è normale che mi chiedano 100 euro di acconto per fermare stanza in safari??? Devo partire a fine gennaio ....grazie
Written 6 January 2019
Non saprei perché anche noi abbiamo versato un anticipo ma con Nata la Safari e si è dimostrato serio e affidabile. Per quanto abbiamo pptuto vedere non consiglierei i beach boys

Io ho prenotato sul posto e mi sono trovato benissimo, però nn so se in alta stagione ci sarà possibilità di scelta. Comunque ti confermo che sono molto professionali e seri.
Buon divertimento
