A safari that exceeded all, already high expectations, more than I could ever dream of.
5/5

Our 12 days safari became an extraordinary experience thanks to James and his colleagues Sammy and Gerard.
James is a fantastic guide who reads the group and goes that "extra mile" in order to fulfill the dreams and expectations in the group. He shares his knowledge in a way that makes you become one with Kenya and the wild life, you sense a feeling of belonging to the nature. It is his great experience and passion for what he does that makes it possible for all of us to see and feel so much of the wildlife and the magnificent nature.
James is also a fantastic photographer and he does his utmost to give you the possibility to get that perfect shot!
James, his colleagues and Wild Portrait safaris have my highest and warmest recommendations.

As first time visitors to beautiful Kenya, it felt great to rely on James expertise and experience. He and his colleagues have such passion and love for the nature and the animals and shares their knowledge in a fantastic way.

James, Gerald and Sápmi knew exactly where to be at the right time.
5/5

These guys really have what is needed to make the safari an once-in-a-lifetime experience!!! I have been on several safaris in more countries than Kenya and I must say this was the best I have ever done. They gave me a feeling of the magic from both the animals and nature. I can highly recommend James Muchina and his colleagues. Karin Børsum, Norway

A truly amazing once in a lifetime experience
5/5

My wife and I spent 4 absolutely wonderful days with James from Wild Portrait! It is by far our most memorable tour experience to date and it is all due to James's passion for what he does and the fact that he is just an awesome person. Whether it was his keen senses leading us to the truly rare on multiple occasions (leopard feeding on its kill in a tree with her cub down below as an example), looking up from great conversation to realize the hours long drives are over or him making us feel absolutely at home in his homeland, James was the absolute best! We left Kenya with unforgettable memories and a true friend.

I highly recommend booking your safari with James. It is easy to see that he loves what he does and is passionate about safaris. He handled the overnight safari camp booking for me, making my trip go seamlessly - it was a truly wonderful experience!

Fantastic arrangements & memorable trip
5/5

Wild Portrait Safaris was recommended by my photographer cousin. James Muchina was absolutely to the point regarding the planning, bookings and making arrangements. Despite having our own ideas, he suggested and tweaked our plan little bit and we found that was a good decision. Right from pick up at Nairobi airport, to the stays, game drives, it was a fantastic and memorable trip. He is a perfect guy to go to if one loves the wildlife and is keen to have full day safaris. His knowledge of the animals, their moves was wonderful. Could get a lot of good photographs due to his well anticipated car driving on the games. Would be him again definitely if Kenya is repeated!

We had a most wonderful Safari experience...they delivered above and beyond our expectations!
5/5

Wild Portraits Safari ‘fully delivered on everything they had promised us. The accommodations were excellent and the food was very good. Our two guides James Muchina and Silva Chuwa were very knowledgeable about the local culture, wildlife and had the unique ability to determine where we might see wildlife and the best time to do so. With everyone in our group being photographers getting into the Best light andbposition was critical for us. We came away from our safari completely satisfied with the sense we had found new friends.

We can highly recommend Wild Portraits Safaris and am open to have individuals contact me via email with additional questions. We are very happy customers and if we return for another Safari there is only one company we will call...Wild Portraits Safaris!

This trip was an amazing trip and the guides did everything we needed for a perfect safari!
5/5

I think everything overfilled my expectations! It was my first safari and some in the group had been many times so the guides did a perfect job to make it amazing for all of us! I had no expectations on the comfort of living so i was very pleased, beacuse it was very good standard. It was something i always have with me... having all comfort and still feel so close to the nature. The light, the sounds, the smells and the colour will always make me longing back to Kenya. And the food and the service where tip top at every place we stayed. I also have to say something about the animals. Its still breathtaking for me to look at all my picture of the beautiful animals we where lucky to see thanks to the most talented guides. They could also tell me so much about every animal and it was so interesting. I took that interest with me home and i see so much more home now, than i did before and I'm greatfull to James and Justus for that. So my thinking is that this safari was perfectly planed and i whished everyone could do this safari with Wild Portrait Safari!

In this my fifth safari I made new experiences; spectacular, breathtaking, silent moments.
5/5

We had an allover good safari! High expectations, high delivery. Every day ended upp with a highlight. Espacially I remember the elephants, walking in the morning around our car. Alltogether 18. Marvellous!

Our guides and drivers James and Justus were exellent. I don´t know what too admire the most. The roads were affected by rain, but I felt secure all the time.
