Johann is honest, reliable, knowledgeable and responsive.
5/5

Never been to Africa? No worries! You are in great hands with this tour company!! This was a trip of a lifetime! Explorer’s Wild Adventures delivered in every possible way. David was our guide and from the moment he picked us up at our hotel the adventure began. One of the very first things he told us was to feel free to ask him about anything- culture, people, politics, education, history- in addition to any questions we might have about the places we would visit and the animals we would see. He was incredibly knowledgeable and we learned so much about Kenya- in addition to detailed information on every animal, bird and plant we encountered on the tour. We selected to take the private option- which was well worth the money as we were able to move freely around the Landcruiser and see animals on both sides of the vehicle. We were also able to make requests, which David happily complied with, during our tour. Each accommodation was more beautiful than the one before it. I’ve watched safari shows on tv (Safari Brothers on Nat Geo) and our experience with David beat every episode! We saw every animal except the leopard and the elusive black rhino at distances of less than 10-15 feet. We had to put the binoculars down because we were too close to need them!! The only thing that we would do differently is NOT book the Lake boat ride- it was $50.00 (USD) per person and the boat was barely more than a very old, wide canoe. It ended up being about 15-20 minutes on the lake and then a walk where we saw animals that we had already seen due to David’s expertise. That excursion should be no more than $20.00 (USD) pp AT MOST. It was the only disappointment of our trip. We recommend this tour company and our guide, David, to everyone! Our children are already looking into booking their own trips!!

The tour operator brings us a vibrant life and scenery of Kenya in an efficient way.
5/5

Explorers Wild Adventures is such a good travel agency and George is such a good tour guide. Together they bring a marvelous animal watching trip of Kenya to us.
Explorers Wild Adventures first replied to our request and designed the trip exactly as what we need. The overall experience is beyond our expectations. They have a good taste in terms of hotel options. They responded quickly when emergency appears. They assigned Mr George as our tour guide. Mr George is very experienced and responsible. He drove skillfully under complex road conditions like in National Parks. He knew where to see the must-see animals and shared his knowledge about different animals. His trip was very efficient that he could drive less hours than those young drivers but brought us to more amazing animal-watching experience and also all of us could spend more time to rest and to enjoy the beautiful view from the hotels. We highly recommended Mr George to be your tour guide.

We had great communication with the tour throughout the booking process. From hotel pickup, throughout the tour to drop off was done without any complications. Our driver/guide (David) was absolutely the best. Would recommend the tour operator to anyone interested in visiting Kenya!!

We had an excellent time and were well looked after on this adventure.
5/5

We had an excellent 4 day, 3 night adventure in the Masai Mara and Nakuru national parks. We were happy to have paid the extra money for a private tour and the 4x4 vehicle was well worth the extra cost. We saw all the things we wanted to see, and got some beautiful photos and had all positive experiences.

Our safari guide and drive Zack was excellent and really helped make our trip memorable. He was 100% on our program and we felt like he added a ton of value to our experience. His knowledge of Masai Mara, but also how to find animals and where to go at what times of day was invaluable. We were the first folks to see things so often, it was outstanding.

We also paid extra to stay in accommodation inside the park boundaries and felt that was money well spent. The company communicated clearly using WhatsApp and our trip was excellent.

Amazing Safari Experience!
5/5

We went on a 9-day custom-made safari with Explorers Wild Adventure. It was amazing. Seeing all these beautiful animals in their natural habitat is a once in a lifetime experience. Explorers was very accommodating with all our requirements and even during the safari were able to quickly solve any issue we encountered. We especially were very happy with our driver/guide’s work. If you can ask for him to be your guide and he is available, definitely ask for David. As a general suggestion for anyone going on a safari, be transparent and direct about what you want. Safaris are quite expensive in general so make sure you get your value out of the trip.

This safari was one of most extraordinary experiences in my life
5/5

First of all, many thanks to Explorers Wild Adventures for organizing a great safai experience and providing many unforgettable wilderness moments.
I just returned from a six-day budget safari in Kenya where I had the opportunity to visit the Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha lakes and Amboseli National Park.
I am satisfied with all aspects of the safari. Nature itself was spectacular and we saw so many animals, including a herd of lions, but also herds of elephants, giraffes, bufalos, wildebeest, rhinos, giraffes...
All praise goes to our driver Ken for his excellent driving and resourcefulness, who did everything for us to see really many animals and avoid crowds and traffic jams when driving from one safari location to another.
I am very satisfied with the accommodation provided, and I especially liked the spacious tents, their cleanliness, the comfort of the beds and the small porches in front of them. Of course, I would also mention the horticulture and the beautifully decorated outdoor part of the camp with numerous plants. The camp in the ambuseli also had a spectacular view of Kilimanjaro.
Food was good. Even I, as a vegetarian, had enough options. Don't expect luxury catering with 50 different options, but the food was certainly excellent, I ate perhaps the best pancakes ever, and when we got a lunch box, they packed a lot of food a way more than we needed.
The agency was flexible in terms of organizing additional transport options. Considering that after the tour we did not return to Nairobi (which was the original safari route) but continued on to Tanzania, we agreed with the agency to transport us to the border, from where they organized further transport through Tanzania.
In my opinion, this safari offer represents an excellent price-quality ratio, and I would definitely recommend it to other interested.

Exceptional Company🩷
5/5

We planned a 5 day itinerary and Johann couldnt have been nice nor more accommodating. I had a lot of requests and changes and Johann took care of all of them. Joseph and Zachary picked us up in Nairobi and they were both so very lovely. We had the best 5 days with Zachary as our guide. He is also an incredible skilled driver as some roads were really tricky to drive through and he managed it great. 100% recommend all of the team for your personalized safari!
