Perfect custom 4 day safari
My sister and I did a custom safari from the Kenyan coast back towards Nairobi stopping through 3 different parks / sanctuaries. Joseph was a great driver, and Michael was a great coordinator. I live in Nairobi and had a great experience all around. I'd recommend them to friends and family visiting!

Halfday Tour Nairobi Nationalpark & Carnivore Restaurant
We had a great day in the Nationalpark, The streets at the safari were bad but the the driver was good. :-)
We booked one day before on phone and it was no problem. After the Nairobipark we decided to eat at Carnivore Restaurant, he organised everything for us!
We had a great day in Nairobi. Michael and the the driver Joseph was very friendly!
Thnaks for that great Trip!

Great service for a great price
We booked a three-day safari in amazing Masai Mara with Ancient Wild Safaris. Michael, our contact person, took great care of us and did everything to make everything as easy and comfortable as possible for us. We had the freedom to give our own input to the program, he was flexible with regards to the payments we had to make, and informed us very well during a visit to our hotel the day before the safari. Also, the guide did a good job and was able to find 4 of big 5. The accommodation was okay-ish. We did not get the promised hot showers and the hygiene was not that great, but I did not expect that much for the very low price.

enjoyable and flexible, perfect for my trip
I was traveling alone and michael helped to organize my trip via email. He respond always very fast and answered all my questions. As well, he was super flexible in organising my trip, a part which i liked very much. When i arrived in nairobi the driver waited for my and it was good to "know" already a person. My guide also visited me in my hotel to explain me everything about my hiking trip and answered all my questions. The hiking it self was awesome! The guide and cook (very nice food! :-) ) took care of me all the time and left my time and space for my self as well. The accomodation was okay as well. You might share your room with 7 other people or you are lucky as me and have the room for your self :-) I decided sponteanously to spend one more night at the mountain and i was thankful that they organised it. I would highly recommand this company and michael and his guides! It was an awesome time and they made it possible! Thanks!

Fantastic holiday with very nice staff
We had a very good time with Ancient Wild Safaris ! Masai Mara ! Nakuru and Amboseli game.
We did 6 days Masai Mara L. Nakuru and Amboseli parks. They were amazing and offered the best, lucky we saw the BIG FIVE.
Mr. Michael is very professional and answered quickly to our emails and questions which was very good quality.
The staff (Joseph as guide, and John as cook) was very kind to us and very helpful ! Our guide was very patient, letting us taking picture for long time, teaching us many things about nature and African local culture and the way of living. The staff were very punctual and timely.
We had an unforgettable time ! The country is wonderful with friendly people whom helped us to discover it in very good conditions! We can't wait to visit again next year.
We were very happy and extremely content seeing so many different animals with our patient driver!
Our driver was very experienced and found a lot of animals, so our expectations were more than fulfilled. Also the communication with Ancient Wild Safari was more than reliable, very prompt and agreeable. All our demands and wishes were taken seriously and again fulfilled. We highly recommend Ancient Wild Safaris and surely we'll book a new safari with them!
Mount Snowdon to Mount Kenya, (and back again)
Michael is a great negotiator, he knows the value of his assets; Paul (transport), Wilson, (sherpa), Joseph, (mobile chef). My experience was so great that I wrote a book about it, as above. Thanks and best wishes, knowing that when you walk through the valleys the higher ground will meet you in good time.

Fantastic trip!
My husband and I used Ancient Wild Safaris for our trip to Kenya this fall. We were lucky enough to stu,ble across a recommendation on a lonely planet forum. They were fantastic! They were patient and accommodating during the planning process and always responded to our questions and concerns promptly. By the time we arrived, I felt like we were meeting friends, not strangers. Our safari was excellent. We were with Joseph for over 10 days. We really got to know him and learned so much about Kenyan culture, the people, animals, parks, everything! Our itinerary was exactly as it had been presented to us, which was nice. We visited Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Samburu, Lake Boringo, Lake Borgoria as well as Masai Mara. we did the budget option and our accomadations were more than adequate. We knew beforehand most of the lodges and camps we would be at and were very comfortable everywhere. We hope to return to Kenya sooner rather than later and will defiantly use Ancient Wild Safaris next time we go!

Our family of four was given excellent service, knowledgeable staff and always willing to help.
We used Ancient Wild for a 10 day safari to visit National parks in Kenya including Masai, Nakuru, Hells Gate, and Amboselli. With two small children, they always accommodated our needs, let us change our plans according to children schedules, and we saw everything on our list. Our guide Joseph was very knowledgeable, good with kids, and always ready to help with whatever we needed and at any time. Michael made all the arrangements and was very instrumental in planning the trip to meet our needs and budget. We would recommend them and use them again.
