Susan, meticulously arranged a flawless and unforgettable Safari journey.
5/5

We are extremely grateful to our tour guide, Susan, for arranging this perfect itinerary for us. We spent an unforgettable six-day, five-night Safari trip. The Masai Mara National Park was truly astonishing. Our driver was very professional and took us to observe various wild animals up close, allowing us to experience the charm of the African plains. Meanwhile, the meals at the hotel where we stayed were also excellent, and the staff were enthusiastic and proactive.

Worth to book with.

5/5

Before the Safari trip, I was hesitant and contacted several companies to search for information. Susan is the only one made me feel confident about the whole trip. She responded to my emails in a timely manner and answered every question organized.
The whole trip was very pleasant. The first half of the trip was spent with our guide Ken in Masai Mara and Nakuru. We loved Ken so much, he was professional and passionate about his work, he socialized with other drivers, he had a walkie-talkie to contact other drivers and made sure we saw the most amazing scene - lions hunting buffalo. Huge respect to him.
The second half of the trip was spent with David in Amboseli, he was more reserved, but also very good.
Our accommodation, vehicles and everything were arranged in accordance with our itinerary. I was very satisfied with this trip.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND Tropical Wild Expeditions AND Susan :)

Trip of a lifetime
5/5

We had an absolutely amazing 8 day safari with tropical wild expeditions, in an almost new land cruiser with a safe and experienced driver and budget accommodation that far exceeded our expectations.

I also have a few tips for anyone looking for a budget Kenya safari....

All of the companies mix and match clients to get their tours to fit in with their schedules with shared tours., so it's always possible you will change from one vehicle to another depending on your itinerary or have people come and go from your vehicle. Sometimes leading to delays and frustrations... I really can't see anyway of avoiding this besides having a private tour.

On the first day of the tour you drive all the way to the Masai mara and then have lunch and go on an afternoon game drive around 4/4:30. Only problem is the park closes at 6 and you still have to pay full game park fee for that day(same day only passes now instead of old 24 hours passes) so maybe consider what we did adding another day in the mara but not doing a game drive on the first day to reduce the cost and maximise value. In the afternoon of the first day we paid a nominal fee to a Masai working at our camp to take us on a nature walk, were we learnt about how they use all the plants/trees and saw lots of animals walking along the river in the park.

Lots of the roads in and between parks are dirt/gravel and during rain periods can be flooded I think the land cruiser is worth the extra price over the van.

Most of the camps the budget share safaris stay at are all near each other just outside the park. I can't recommend enough flair camp experience, every meal at the camp is a 4 course meal and was levels above anything else at the other camps and the Masai staff were absolutely amazing.

The drive day to Amboseli after doing hell's gate is pretty brutal and Im on the fence if it was worth it to me. Amboseli is great for seeing elephants and the view of Kili is amazing if your lucky to get it on a clear day but it can also be a bit of an anticlimax compared to the all action of watching hunts and spotting far more animals in the mara.

If you do make it to Amboseli I highly recommend the Manjaro camp if your looking for more of a natural low key experience. Small camp with basic amenities but has wildlife from the park walking through the camp, sounds from animals at night including hyena calls and heaps of bird life. Camp fire in the evening and walking paths around the camp.

Good professional service
5/5

After nearly booking with the wrong agent I found TWE very professional. I booked a budget 7 day safari.There was a driver waiting to pick me up from the airport at 6am. I shared a Landcruiser with a mix of Europeans from other agencies and we had a great time together. Our driver John was a nice guy and only gave us early pick up times when needed. Also when another tourist complained that her tour Company had changed her Hotel without telling her he immediately corrected it. Ivwad on a budget holiday, but the only difference in the price was the quality of the Hotel you stayed in. That being said all accommodation was clean and comfortable - tented acc in Masai Mara was the roughest but some Hotels were 4 star with swimming pools and rooftop restaurants. Tbh the Game Parks would be ruined if 5 star Hotels were built right next to them, and the accommodation we stayed in blended in with the surroundings.
Can definitely recommend Tropical Wild.
