There was a confusion about the pick up time but we made everything to be ready at the given time even if it wasn’t what was requested , but we ended waiting a little bit more than an hour to be picked up
From there everything was very nice , the safari was amazing , we’ve been lucky enough to see many animals and magical scenery on the first and second day !
The camp was okay , and was exactly as described . The food was nice also !
The masaai made a fire camp for us during the last night , we stayed around and enjoyed this time !
But the third day was a bit deceiving , we were brought to the masaai village at an extra cost , and to be honest it looked staged , and everything was made to make us give more and more money ! And the prices were excessfull !! People over there were kind of putting pressure on us to make us buy something or give money .
It’s a bit sad cause it was nice to discover the traditions at the beginning .
The we were brought to the community school and were again ask for “donations”.
After all that we were all a bit disturbed about this experience , and it was time to hit the road back to Nairobi .
On the road we asked our driver if it was possible to be dropped at Nairobi Terminus to catch our train , he told us that it was okay for him but he ended up dropping us in central Nairobi , with some guys who offered us to keep our luggage during the afternoon for free and then drop us at the train station for free in the evening ! But after, when we got in the office to leave our stuff , they started telling us that the ride to the train station will be at an extra cost !!! So I refused !! It wasn’t supposed to be like that !
All the other person in the group were dropped off were they asked !!
So we left and ended up paying a Bolt to get to the train station , which I find non professional at all since the tour guide was supposed to drop us there !!
