    I travelled with my wife, 10 year old and 6 year old to Masai Mara, Kenya for four day safari with Gracepatt and it was by far one of THE best experiences of our lives! Grace at Gracepatt Ecotours Kenya was fantastic and helpful the whole way, curating a trip that would serve our family best! James, our guide, was amazing! He made sure that we saw everything you would in a National Geographic episode. He knew the reserve so well and was able to name every creature, big and small, providing us with so much information! Highly, highly recommend Gracepatt, was recommended to us by friends and we are so happy we went with them.

    We had a fantastic safari with our driver Simon. His knowledge of the safari parks and animals was outstanding. We booked the safari last minute and the whole process was very smooth. the company was very accommodating throughout the trip, especially when it came to organising covid tests. We had a great time and I’d highly recommend Gracepatt and Simon.
