Endless memories created, many laughs and we felt safe and looked after
Diana was amazing at helping organise our trip, she was very quick with responses and helped with difficulties before the trip. Very please we were able to experience our trip with Kwezi.
Our driver Edward was very punctual, caring and informative. I'd say patient as well with 2 small children asking a million questions. Edward looked after my family and created life long memories. We hope to return again and will use Kwezi in the future.
We were lucky to see 4 out of the big 5.

Well planed and well executed.
Kwezi Safari Dec 2023/Jan 2024. Highly recommended.
When we decided to go on safari we contacted several safari companies and supplied information about what we wanted. Other companies, including “custom safari operators “ sent us back what appeared to be canned trips.
Only Mr. Kimiri, from Kwezi came back with some comments and suggestions to make the trip flow better. Even after we had committed he came back with suggestions that helped us avoid problems at lodges and put us in places better for our game drives. We had several email discussions to refine the trip. My family wanted to make some donations and he even took personal time to pick up and deliver items for a local orphanage.
As for the safari we couldn’t have asked for more. Though no safari company can guarantee what you get to see. We saw everything we wanted to see and more. We were lucky to see a lion hunt of a Cape buffalo and even a recent kill of a gazelle by a cheetah with her two cubs. They sat no more than 15 feet from our Land Cruiser eating and resting. We even saw some very rare animals such as a Serval Cubs and a genet. When we stopped for lunch one day the guide immediately spotted a boa in a tree near our vehicle. We visited both Kenya and Tanzania, so it required two different guides Jimmy and John, plus at our request Mr. Kimiri.
(Hint- the guides they arranged for us were experienced and seemed to know everyone) if something was happening they knew it quickly and maneuvered us to great viewing locations & when we found an animal they notified others. We talked with other people on safari when at our lodging and they didn’t see nearly as much as we did.
We saw many birds and only once did the guide have to check his book to verify a species. Often our guide would stop in place we saw nothing and point out animals. Spotting small animals is a gift.
Last but not least, our guides didn’t just answer our questions, they offered us information about the animals we saw, about habitat, about birds, about trees, about the Masai people and their customs.
I don’t believe we could have had a better experience even if we had paid more. Thank you Kwezi Safari.

Professional
From our first communications with Paul at Kwezi through our trip home, we were impressed with the responsiveness and general care for the quality of our experience from Paul and the Kwezi family. Our trip was customized to meet our desires and resulted in a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Our drivers, Jimmy in Kenya and John in Tanzania, went above and beyond to seek out unique sightings. As a result we saw a small group of lions hunt and attack a Cape buffalo, a rarely seen serval hunting for lunch, and a mother cheetah and her two cubs nourish themselves on the gazelle they had killed moments earlier. Friends I’ve spoken to who have gone on safari before said it’s rare to see so much in a single trip. I was shocked by how close our vehicle came to lions and elephants, buffalo and giraffes while still keeping us safe. Our accommodations were great, with the tent camp being my favorite. The food was authentic to the area yet there was always something for those who were less adventurous in their dietary choices. Our days were full and we went to bed each night tired and happy. I recommend Kwezi highly and hope you give yourselves a chance for wonderful memories by booking with them.

Great guide
Paul Kimiri, Jimmy, and John were all great to have on the trip. They were so knowledgeable and friendly. They really tried to make everything we wanted to see or do happen. The only con I would say is that the food was not great, but I think you need to be prepared for that as a fact if you are going on safari in Kenya and Tanzania because it was the same everywhere. Would highly recommend them as guides/drivers.

I visited on 2023
"The guide we were assigned by kwezi was extraordinary. The most kind , knowledgeable and lovely man 10 days with a stranger can have its issues but he was fantastic from day one. I cannot recommend George high enough. He looked after me - with mobility issues - and my family superbly. I cried when we said farewell which tells you much. Please pass this on to the kwezi safari management
I was prior to arriving in Tanzania unaware about the distance we would travel. Our guide told me we drove 1455kms !! This was our 5th .safari you organised for us and beyond the best. Your ground arrangements were superb from beginning to end.
I will be back soon
