With the SAFARI SPECIALISTS the second time

2022年8月 • 好友

This is the second time with Morindat travels,( been on safaris with many others besides Morindat in 2017) .

These guys at Morindat never fails to impress me with their deep understanding of the game and the topography of game locations .

A special word about the safari guide Gideon who is a Masai and his team of guides Sammy and Francis. It was a treat travelling with them . We learnt a lot from their huge wealth of knowledge and there was never a dull moment even with this second safari with Morindat

Morindat was always ready to give the best advice with recommending the safari dates, best camps to suit our budget and in providing the best safari guides to our other group's safari vehicles ( we were a group of 15 in 3 vehicles)

I will go with them for on the next trip whenever that happens

Customer Delight

CUSTOMER DELIGHT  Maasai Mara… It’s a photographer’s paradise and it will be in the bucket list of any wildlife photographer and am not an exception. Having said that, remember, Maasai mara is 1510 square km which is 583 square miles. It is larger than Bengaluru and Chennai put together in size. In this vast area, without a proper guide, it is not easy to sight animals. Our group admin Dorai rightly identified a new start-up morindat and our group leader Anand sealed the deal.   Morindat is founded by Gideon and Titus, a first generation entrepreneurs who had vast experience in African safari tourism. This start-up is not a tech start-up. They are not bothered about valuation, fund rise, exit, unicorn status etc… Instead this start-up is just focussing only on CUSTOMER DELIGHT.   At every moment, they delighted the customer consistently.   We booked the safari in the year 2020. It got postponed twice due to obvious reason. They were accommodative and did not fleece us with huge changeover charges etc. Instead, they accommodated our request every time and very supportive of us and ensured that we did not lose our peak season dates. We, as their customers were DELIGHTED   Just 3 weeks before the D date, my wife broke her leg and the Dr was not at all convinced about us going to Mara. Our group leader requested Morindat about a possibility of wheelchair assistance. We could not imagine a whole vacation on a wheelchair that too inside a forest with a very difficult terrain. Had we gone with any big tour operator, they would have said NO to that request coz, no one could commit a wheelchair assistance for the entire 7 days of tour and take a huge responsibility on the customer’s health.   Morindat used their differentiated approach compared to their competitors. They said YES to the wheelchair assistance and executed the same from the time we landed in Nairobi till we boarded our Chennai flight. This is possible only in an owner driven company since the decision making was quick and execution was in their hands. It also gave them a hands-on experience on how to handle a difficult situation and they can repeat it in case if they encounter a similar situation in future. We were DELIGHTED again.   They chose hotels with wheelchair access and also ensured good veg food spread. They were on the spot, ON TIME always, and never a second was delayed. All three guide/driver knew the terrain so well without a google map and also highly knowledgeable about birds, animal behavior etc. Several times, they took us off-road to sight animals and again DELIGHTED us in each safari. We never returned from any safari disappointed. Most of the members in our group did not carry large telephoto lenses. Seeing that, Morindat, guides took the vehicle closer to the animals to DELIGHT our folks to click the pic of animals using their mobile phone or normal zoom lens cameras. We were lucky to spot mating of lions, Cheetah’s unusual behavior of climbing a tree and a minor chase by a bull elephant apart from sighting all big five and other animals and a plenty of birds.   I am sure Morindat will emerge as a very successful start-up with their differentiated approach and CUSTOMER DELIGHT as their MANTRA.  Some pic clicked by self at Mara

Best experience ever…

Morindat Tours’ hospitality started right at the Airport when we landed in Nairobi airport. They were so helpful that we managed to pick up local SIM cards while we waited for our group to finish their CIQ.

We then proceeded to a city hotel which was changed up at the last minute & it was not regretful at all. Usually last minute changes aren’t welcomed by any traveller, but this was a brilliant change with a beautiful one at bar at the rooftop.

The second day started with our travel to the Masai Mara Reserve. The 3 drivers headed by Gideon (co-owner) of Morindat made our journey smooth & comforting. The 5-6 hours journey was made easy (I suffer from motion sickness) & I was alright.

The game drives were excellent & the drivers Sammy & Francis were fabulous. Francis was our LC’s driver & he was an encyclopaedia of animals & plants. He would dish out Botanical & Zoological names of Plants, Trees & animals we saw. I must admit I can’t remember even one.

Early morning sunrise & late evening sunsets in the grasslands is a sight to cherish for the rest of one’s lives. Francis even accorded our LC’s passengers as one of the best passengers he’s taken. We would like to think that we were good spotters too. We managed to out spot, our fellow travellers with lions and cheetahs.

After 4 nights in the Mara Reserve we headed to Lake Naivasha. One night there & back to Nairobi Airport. Our week long trip was over before we even realised.

I don’t think anyone else is equipped to handle the difficult needs of all travellers.

3 cheers to the Morindat Team…

Asante Sana

Life Time Experience @ Mara

Have u ever travelled for a vacation with a broken leg?

Yes I did….. but had a life time experience.

I Have no words to thank team Morindat, Titus, Gideon, Sammy & Francis.

As a group of 15 friends, we planned a trip to Mara in 2020. But what happened from 2020 we all know, I don’t want to remind myself about it.

Our trip postponed to next year and then to next year again. Finally 2022, we were all set to travel. Just 3 weeks to go and that was when a twist in the ankle …. Sorry tale happened. Yes I twisted my ankle which resulted in a severe fracture, ouch.!!

Family, friends, colleagues and even my doctor said “no way Mara”! Disappointed ☹️ sad and frustrated about my fate. I told my hubby Srini to cancel my tickets and certainly not having any hopes. How ever God decides different!

Week 2 - There was an important meeting at work and I took a chance to go for the meet and stayed back for 10 hours, with my leg @ 90 degrees on a chair. That was a turning point in my approach. Came back home late evening and told my family & friends “am going to Mara” certainly, but in a wheel chair.

Let me tell you there was some magic @ Mara, that did a miracle to me. Our trip mentors Vimla & Dorai and our leader Anand were bent upon on carrying me on their shoulder to Mara.. not giving up on me. Thank you the 3 of you, I owe you for this.

Our mentor & leader started coordinating with Morindat team @ Mara to ensure that the whole travel is with wheel chair assist. Yes finally I did it completely, did not miss a single safari or a place of visit, competed with all my fellow travellers in all enjoyments.

Thanks to “Team Morindat” for the wonderful life time experience that I had.
Let me talk first about Morindat before I share my mara experience.

Titus - perfect example of how an owner should drive the biz with a personal touch with the travellers. Thanks to flawless planning and pleasant experience that each one of us had.

Gideon - Hey Gidi ! Smart & sharp in spotting animals and always surprises us in every safari. Despite an Owner, he drove us all thru the trip comfortably. He was our Google map of Mara… even in the wildest jungle he was too good in his route. Should we baptise him as “Gidioogle”! Very Knowledgeable and we were lucky to have him lead us end to end.

Sammy - My Mara bro ! Cool, retired army guy, who took care of me in the entire trip. Not a time he hesitated to take out and put the wheel chair back in the van. But for Sammy, my life in Mara would not have been so smooth. He was too good in spotting birds, knew all the Mara birds by their call, amazing birding guy.
My fellow traveller and my life partner, who is a troublesome kid when it comes to photography. Always keeps shouting stopppp… stop..stop. Sammy will stop the van bang on .. it took a day for him to understand what a stop..stop…stop means. Started saying “Hakuna mattata!” Means no problem… in turn we taught him a more or less equivalent funny word for him “pona pogattum”. Every safari we enjoyed with Sammy. Icing on the cake, when he woke up the sleeping jungle king just 50 mtrs away with his recorded lioness call. Thank you my bro, Sammy for all the experience.

Francis - I spoke just once or twice to him but cannot forget his face for my life time. Was challenging to take a photo of me while I try to touch the lions mane. Sorry didn’t have that chance though .😊.
Man with a smiling face, I am sure he will be smiling even when he sleeps. Keep smiling Francis.

Morindat ensured we had a comfortable stay all thru our trip. With a fractured leg one cannot expect anything better.
◦ Day 0 or the landing day at Golden tulip Nairobi.
◦ Day 1 to Day 3 at Mara river crossing, in the midst of wild forest, right bang on the Mara river, with hippo families around us. Later we found that we were camping very close to lion king as well.
◦ Day 4 &5 at Fairmont , reserve forest again on the banks of River Mara, baboons and birds playing around us.
◦ Day 6 at Sawella lodge, Naiwasha with beautiful lawns and big trees around, birds chirping happily.
Stay all through was safe, fabulous, & memorable.

Food - Being a vegetarian, at each and every place we stayed we enjoyed our veg food. Variety of veggies, fruits and pastries and puddings, we even tried the Kenyan veggy food ugali and spinach. Can u believe we had garlic naan and subzi too!! Not a meal we missed the home food. Thank you Morindat team for taking care of our food in the entire trip.

Game - we had 5 safaris and never disappointed with even one. Every safari we were spotting different animals. Gidi, our travel guide was spot on in taking us on to the right spotting places. We were lucky to spot even the rarest sighting of mating lions. Every safari had a treat for us, Cheetah climbing tree again a rare sight, Cheetah mom teaching her kids to hunt, though we didn’t wait to see the kill, Hyaena family happily having a sun bath, parade walking of leopard mom with her grown up kids, Giraffes walking tall & proud, Sighting king of jungle twice and lioness with her cousins and kids, not to forget the beautiful varieties of antelopes.

The very first safari a middle aged Tusker tried to charge our van , we saw ostrich run, sighted a lot of animals - zebras, leopards, warthog, giraffe, cheetah, elephants, wilderbeasts gazels, Topi, Rhino, Hippo family, croc, Impalas & many rare birds, to name a few, pied crow, starlings, lilac roller, secretary birds, vultures, pipit & crowned crane.

Finally back home. It’s two days now, still feel, being at Mara. Missing the Masais , Mara river, Team Morindat, the jungle, safaris and the bumpy rides.
I can’t thank enough to my 13 friends who travelled along and my better half for helping me do this successfully.

Can’t wait to go back to Mara again but on my two legs certainly.

Don’t forget to choose Morindat if you want the best life time experience. Cheers Team Morindat.

Jambo Masai Mara with Morindat!

Our experience with Morindat has been exemplary from start to finish.

Morindat has been set up recently by two experienced guides, Gideon & Titus. We first connected with them early 2020 planning a trip in July of that year. But we had to postpone our trip to 2022 due to the pandemic (first we booked for 2020 and then we had to push to 2021 and, finally 2022!).

So we had been conversing with both of them for well over two years. They navigated our postponements and reservation changes smoothly with patience! Very professional, quick to respond to any mode of communication, whether email or whatsapp or calls!

And finally, our trip happened in Aug 2022! We were a group of 15 from Chennai, India and we took three jeeps on a seven day vacation. One of us was on a wheelchair with a fracture on her leg that happened just 3.5 weeks prior to our trip.

It was a wonderful, exciting and once-in-a-lifetime trip. Our three guides were Gideon himself along with Francis & Sammy. They were excellent! Warm, friendly, flexible, attentive and oh, so good at leading us to the right spotting of wild animals! We couldn't see the famed crossing or crocs, but we saw almost everything else including the very rare sights of mating lions and a cheetah trying to climb a tree! Brilliant! I was in Francis'Jeep and I can tell you he is one of the best! If I go again, I will go with him! He has a little resemblance to the Dembe character in the James Spader TV series, Blacklist! 😊

Our wheelchair bound traveler had a whale of a time, with Sammy taking very good care of her on the travel and the safaris!

Titus and Gideon had helped us choose and reserve excellent hotels for us at Mara (we stayed first in a boutique resort, Mara Crossing and then at the larger Fairmont) and finally at Naivasha (Sawela). Mara Crossing was right in the jungle, by the Mara river, a fantastic resort! And Fairmont was on the banks of Mara too. Titus generally takes care of the hotel reservations and the commercials. He is very, very dependable. You don't have to remind him about anything!

Morindat's pricing is decent. They are really good and it will be smart to make your entire trip reservations with them, thereby eliminating any agent fees. You just need to make your own air travel and visa arrangements.

Thank you, Gideon & Titus. Thank you, Francis & Sammy!
