Worth Every Penny
First of all, if you’re looking for all the comforts of a Hilton for under a thousand dollars, this tour isn’t for you. If you do want a quality trip on a budget, I highly recommend this tour.
Our driver, James, was amazing: safe, competent, patient, informative, and skilled. Driving in Kenya isn’t easy with so many unpaved roads. James handled them with amazing skill. I know if I were driving myself, I never would have made it. Having a safe driver should be one’s priority in booking a trip like this.
We saw all the major animals and more. Such a fun trip. More details and photos available at justacarryon.com.

Professional, expert game drivers who made the experience unforgettable
Communication with the company prior to safari was fantastic, they tailor made our safari based on our specific requirements. Each day was reviewed at the end and a discussion of how we would like the next day to go. The tour itself exceeded expections. Our driver Jackson had so much knowledge of the park, he was always ahead of the game on finding the animals and we saw some truly magic moments because of this! Tom alway went out of his way to make our trip seamless and stress free. We couldn’t have been happier and would recommend this company to anyway. Thank you so much!

Unsatisfactory
I paid $250 for this service with tour guide but our driver James was a driver only. He didn’t provide any info about the Masai or animals. Further, he yelled at us in the beginning of the tour for taking a photo when we didn’t know the rules. This ruined the mood of the safari entirely. He also made us feel bad for expecting water free when it was in the itinerary. Lastly, English literacy and customer service in general was poor. For $250 I expected more :(

Falling in love forever in all big cats, giraffes and others - great job of Wild Safaris and Travel
The most unforgettable vacation among others (Bali, Philippines, Canaries, Mediterranean islands, ...)!!!
I quested 4 companies at the beginning. Only WILD Safaris and Travel's representative Tom kept answering on my requests while I was sticking together our ambitious wishes with our possibilities. Tom was very attentive, explained everything on e-mail and whatsapp, answered on all my requests, within max 24 hours.
With Tom's kind assistance also were purchased tickets for SGR train Nairobi - Mombasa (beach) to go after safari and back, as such purchase can be done only from local telephone owner.
We were met at Nairobi airport at night upon arrival by representative as it was agreed and after 4 days safari dropped out at our chosen accommodation.
During our safari tour we stayed at 2 different places - Midi Mingi Ecocamp and hotel in Nakuru. We were welcomed with a lot enthusiasm at each place! The staff was very friendly and very accommodating. The food was very taste, a la fourchette, and always hot and fresh and plenty of it.
About safary: our driver and guide in one person - Patrik - has incredible knowledge about wildlife. He always drove direction where rare animals could be found, gave attracting descriptions about animals habits and lives, and all - with light sense of humor! We saw all big 5 (rhinos - at Nakuru), many times lions - males with overfull stomachs, group of females after hunting, also couple! and plenty of my lovely giraffes and elephants crossing the road!
Patrik has fantastic intuition where rare animals could be met. Patrik was so sincere and genuine in wanting to get to know us and make sure we were having the best time of our lives. Also visit to Masai Village third day morning was educational and interesting experience.
So exciting all together!
Our expectations were exceeded and we got value for our money.
We saw many animals (all big 5 and many others) - thanks to our very charismatic driver/guide Patric.
We highly recommend services of WILD Safaris and Travel to any traveler to Kenya.

Perfect safari experience in hands of caring experts!
My entire coordination was with Tom Ocharo who provided timely response and advices. The tour was just amazing thanks to driver Mansour. Mansour is a very professional and considerate driver and tour guide. His knowledge of animals, nature and willingness to do his best so that we could maximize our safari experience and see as much as possible of the animals in action is truly appreciated. I have also forgotten my binocular in the van at the end of the tour. Mansour took the trouble to drive back to my hotel to return it without me asking for it. I am truly impressed with their professionalism, honesty and genuine intensions to make our safari experience unforgettable. Contact Tom so you too can have an amazing safari at a very affordable price.

meeting wild animals and interesting people
We would like to thank for the very good and interesting 7 days safari.
Thank you for picking us up from the Airport, showing all the animals, all safaris according to the program, helping us with the train ticket and transport to the Railway station in Nairobi.
All were just in time.
Our excellent driver did his best to find and show the wild animals from the best places/positions and in the best lights.
My daughter forgot a paintig in the car and our driver sent the painting to Mombasa. T
