Question 1

What safari options does Guesteas offer in Kenya?

Accepted Answer

Three formats: a Masai Mara day trip from Nairobi (by road or fly-in), multi-day overnight safaris across Kenya's top parks with full-board lodges, and fly-in safaris using charter or scheduled flights from Wilson Airport to destinations like Mara, Amboseli, and Samburu.

Question 2

Is the Great Wildebeest Migration visible year-round?

Accepted Answer

No — the Great Migration typically passes through the Masai Mara from July to October. The Big Five and other wildlife are viewable year-round across Kenya's parks, so a safari is worthwhile any time of year even outside migration season.

Question 3

Are safari guides and vehicles on Guesteas licensed?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Providers submit a Tourism Regulatory Authority licence, company registration, public liability insurance, a safari vehicle compliance certificate, and driver-guide certification before being approved.

Question 4

What's the difference between a road safari and a fly-in safari?

Accepted Answer

A road safari drives from Nairobi (roughly 5–6 hours to the Mara) in a 4x4, which is more affordable and lets you see the Rift Valley en route. A fly-in safari uses a small aircraft from Wilson Airport, cutting travel time to under an hour but at a higher price point.
