Would book with Adventures by Rooney any day, any time. Little tip, always book with companies that are flexible and can adjust your package to fit your budget, it will save you time and money!!Posted on Noah BVerified Kenya Trip Anthony from Adventures by Rooney was great. He took a lot of his time to advise us some great spots to visit in Nairobi, Masai Mara and Naivasha ! I would totally recommend him if you have to visit Kenya.Posted on Madeline HVerified Amazing Trip of a Lifetime I went on a safari with my mom earlier this year - it was a dream come true!! My first time in Africa was an amazing trip thanks to Antony. He is so knowledgeable, well connected and easy to travel with. He takes care of all of your needs on your trip and goes above and beyond to make sure you are well taken care of. We had the best time ever - I would highly recommend using his company if you’re looking to go on a safari. He will tailor the trip to your preferences. He is detailed about everything you need to bring and transparent about costs. We were never worried about where we were staying or if we were getting scammed (something other safari companies can do) - we can’t say enough good things!Posted on Pam HVerified Best Safari ever- this is the company for you! My daughter and I spent two weeks on safari and tour with Adventures by Rooney. Anthony took such good care of us from start to finish. I had nothing to worry about - our safety, comfort, enjoyment and experience were his top priority. With his knowledge and experience, we were able to see all the animals and birds I could dream of. He makes every effort to give us a chance to see the wildlife, but always keeping in mind our safety as well as being respectful of the wildlife and environment. He arranged a wonderful hot air balloon trip. Our accommodations were top notch. And he also tailored the trip to our own wants and needs with attention to detail. Anthony has so much knowledge about the culture, history, ecosystem, and wildlife behavior and habits. He is very professional, kind, attentive, and has a good sense of humor. I did another Safari with another company, and adventures with Rooney is far superior. I highly recommend this company.
