Outstanding!
We chose Mwema Africa Safaris for our customized our 2-week wildlife trip through Kenya & Tanzania. During this tour we covered Masaimara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli in Kenya and Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro in Tanzania. While finalizing the itinerary, Simon helped us immensely in deciding about the hotels and game rides. Richard was our driver/ guide/ naturalist/ friend for the Kenyan side. He was enthusiastic, proactive and excellent at spotting wildlife. We spotted nearly everything that we dreamt of. However, our desire to witness the Great Migration was fulfilled only at Serengeti. In our Tanzanian leg, we had the energetic company of Haji who doubled up as our driver cum naturalist. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and that was possible because of Mwema Africa Safaris. Looking forward to many more explorations in the African continent.

Excellent schedule, great driver, fantastic job!
We did MASAI MARA, LAKE NAKURU, LAKE NAIVASHA, AMBOSELI for five days and I must say we got the greatest service all the time. We chose Mwema for our mid-range safari and were so happy for our choice. The company made us feel safe which is important in Africa. All of our 'fine tuning adjustments' to the schedule were accepted. Our driver Paul was incredibly skilled and well-experienced. We rode a van instead of Land Cruiser, but never regret about that. Thank you Paul!.
This company is doing their job in a fantastic way, so if somebody wants to go to Kenya and see a great variety of animals, including Big five and Big nine, just connect Mwema and in the end will be happy with the price, hotels, service and the great driver Paul!

A great experience from beginning to end
While we booked based on cost I don't know how a more expensive trip with a different tour operator could have delivered more. Our guide, Richard was the nicest guy and knew so much about the animals. We saw so many animals. I think we saw 35 lions between the three parks we visited.
A recommendation to anyone thinking of booking a trip... we booked a jeep and those things go through anything. We said repeatedly how glad we were not to have booked a van, it would have struggled in spots. So spend a little extra on the jeep and you will be glad you did.
Wonderful
Unforgettable safari ! Richard was the perfect guide and we saw everything we wanted to see :)

an unforgettable experience
We have always wanted to go on Safari and our trip with Mwema was amazing. Richard, our guide made us feel comfortable and was great company, he was extremely knowledgable and we got to spend as much or as little time as we liked when spotting game, he did not cut any corners. We visited Masai mara along with the Masai village which was eye opening, lake Nakuru, lake naivasha with a boat trip which was so serene and lastly Amboseli. It was a long drive between the destinations as expected but we had enough comfort stops and it was well worth it as each location was very different.

The Best Trip with the Best Guide!
We loved out safari with Mwema Africa Safaris! Our e mail contact Simon was informative, accommodating, and replied quickly. He organized exactly what we wanted and chose perfect hotels to make our trip even better. Richard our guide was knowledgeable, fun and chill at the same time, and he tailored our trip to what would suit us perfectly. We saw incredible animals, stayed at beautiful hotels with gorgeous views and great food, and felt that his experience and temperament allowed us to see more animals because he wasn't rushing around like some of the other guides we saw on the trip. We visited Amboseli, Tsvao West and Tsvao East and loved every minute of it. I work for a major US Airline and travel a lot. I can say this was one of the best organized trips ever.

It was an unbelievable beautiful and unforgettable experience!
We had a wonderful safari and saw really a lot of animals including many lions, leopards and cheetas in amazing landscapes. . In Masai Mara we had the luck the see a wildbeast/zebra river crossing. In Amboseli was the elephant paradise (many big herds of elephants), lions on the trees in Manyara, lions at breakfast in Ngorongoro and the biggest hippo pool in Serengeti were other highlights. Also the village tours (Masai village, Mto Wa Su, and Coffeefarm) were great and we were almost the only tourists while the tour. All the very beautiful Serena lodges were in the heart of the wilderness with wild animals in the garden of the lodges. Everything was perfectly organized from Simon and we could enjoy every minute of our trip without wasting time. It was an unbelievable beautiful and unforgettable experience.

Unique experience!
Simon answered quickly on my emails and was very polite and courteous. He helped us a lot.
The safari itsself was fabulous. We have seen so many beautyful animals. Our tour guide Rashid has made a great effort to find the hidden animals . He informed us about the different landscapes and knew many things about the animals. He answered all questions thoroughly!
Thank you for this unique experience! We had a wonderful trip with you!

A very pleasant safari experience in a beautiful landscape and with confortable lodging
As a hole our safari trip with Mwema to Meru National Park was very good. We had previously been to Maasai Mara and we really liked the diversity of the landscape in Meru. We didn't see a lot of animales but the senery was outstanding!
We found the lodging very comfortable and the food and service was good.
The only thing that we were a bit disappointed with was our driver/guide. He was at times more interested in his cell phone than in searching for animales. We where also a bit annoyed when we had to wait for him after the lunch break going back to Nairobi, not knowing where he had gone.
Obviously he had some privat matters to attend to that took some time...
