Unforgettable Kenya Safari
We had an unforgettable 6-day private tour to Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, and Masai Mara. Ann gave us great advice on different tour itineraries and she was very helpful all through. Our amazing guide/driver John was very friendly and knowledgeable, he had an incredible ability to spot animals. We had never seen such many animals up close. Our meals and accommodation were also excellent. We will definitely be coming back next year for the migration. I would highly recommend Mzingo Wild adventures.

"Truly an all-round experience!"
Our 9-day tour in Kenya with Mzingo wild adventures was a unique & memorable experience! We got to see amazing wildlife - multiple elephants, zebras, buffaloes, and giraffes up close in Tsavo west; lion encounters in Samburu…and so much more game that we didn't even expect.... Perfect start to end of our holiday making in Kenya!
Our tour guide/ driver was a fantastic guide, we cannot recommend him enough to anyone else travelling with Mzingo Wild Adventures company. He found the big five for us and managed to bring us up close to some very special wildlife experiences, i remember we were able to see lions making babies, which is a rare sighting. Apart from that, he was a very funny guide .He told us lots of interesting cultural insights about life in Kenya…and taught us a lot of Kiswahili, which is the national language spoken in Kenya. We enjoyed the free Kiswahili classes! If you happen to go to Kenya for Safari,Mzingo Wild Adventures is your right tour company.A free hint, ask for George as your tour guide.
We also give Ms. Anne a thumbs up for answering our 1001 questions to make this trip a success! She never disappointed us as she answered all our numerous questions in a timely manner. She also advised on the best camps and lodges.
All the lodges were very nice. We especially liked Voi Lodge in Tsavo East (pool, views, and serene) and Ashnil Lodge in Maasai Mara. The food and the location of this lodge were amazingly superb!
The planning of the tour worked seamlessly and smoothly. We recommend Mzingo Wild adventures any day,anytime.
They have very competitive rates.
Asante sana Mzingo-See, you on our next trip!!!

11-Days Breathtaking Safari
My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic 11-day safari trip and I must say it was breathtaking. This was our second visit to Kenya with Mzingo Wild Adventures and like before, Ann ensured everything ran smoothly.
We stayed at the beautiful Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club on our first night. It was an excellent start to our adventure. The club was elegant with stunning views of Mount Kenya.
One of the trip's many highlights was seeing and feeding the last two remaining female northern white rhinos at Ol Pejeta Conservancy. We will always cherish this experience and the knowledge we gained.
At Samburu National Reserve, we saw a lot of wildlife, including the rare Samburu Special Five:- The Reticulated Giraffe, Grevy’s Zebra, Somali Ostrich, Beisa Oryx and Generuk. Our journey also took us to Lake Nakuru National Park and eventually Masai Mara.
I want to express our gratitude to our outstanding guide George, he made our journey unforgettable. He went above and beyond to ensure our trip was enjoyable.
Thank you Ann for customizing the best itinerary for us!! We hope to return in a year or two with everyone, and would highly recommend Mzingo Wild Adventures to anyone planning a safari.

Amazing Birding Experience with Mzingo...
2022 wouldn't have been a complete year without a thrilling 5 day Birdwatching safari across Kenya and Northern TZ. A very well informed Miss Ann was so monumental to our trip planning,making it a success. Our amazing tour leader too,Jose, an experienced Birder made sure we exhaust wonderful species my family and I had really wanted to see. From a Kenya endemic Jackson's Francolin at Castle Forest Lodge,getting a lifer in this beautiful lodge at the foothill of Mt Kenya; to an spectacular Magadi Plovers to the East of Lake Natron.
I would highly recommend anybody out there wishing to bird in Kenya to try Mzingo Wild Adventures.
You'll never regret.

A LIFETIME EXPERIENCE - KENYA SAFARI
We had one of the best experiences and an amazing safari this past holiday. It was one of the most breathtaking trips that we have ever taken. It was an extraordinary safari that we will live to remember! Thanks to Mzingo Wild Adventures!!
Anne impressed us with their outstanding preparation and quick response to our ever-unending questions. By nature, safaris are unpredictable, with a thousand and one different things that can and do go wrong. We were supremely very fortunate overall but that comes with preparedness and expertise. Though, for the things that did pop up as potential problems, Anne and the team recognized them early and attended to them immediately. For that, we are immensely thankful. Thank you all for your professionalism. I also found the quote for our all-around safari very competitive compared to other tour operators.
In particular, our driver guide John was professional. He was always well-prepared and knowledgeable. He was very courteous and patient with us and provided us with the most complete support that we could ever wish for. It was such a pleasure to be with him during our trip. His 12 years of experience are an invaluable asset for the Mzingo safari company. John taught us very much about the animals and plants, in addition to discussing Kenya's history and the culture of the Kenyan people. He is from the Kikuyu community which happens to be the biggest community in Kenya. We truly enjoyed the history of Kenya which we learned from him.
Our lodges and camps were of excellent quality overall. The staff and facilities were top-notch while still being trapped in a natural environment. We enjoyed the warmth and closeness of the staff who predominantly live in Mara and are from the Maasai tribe. We were perplexed by the simplicity of their living in the bush! With hundreds of cows that they treasure so much.
Generally speaking, we returned to our home with an experience of a lifetime. We will always remember the safari that Mzingo wild Adventures and its team organized for us. It was everything we could have ever hoped to have and much more. We have hundreds of photos to show to our family and friends!
We will tell the whole world know of your tour company as you never let us down -Kudos!
For the people that care about good photos, please bring along a modern camera, you will have so much to see that it can only be a shame to yourself if you choose to use your mobile phone camera...
Our guide taught us a word in Swahili that I love to use often-Asante sana to Mzingo...this translates to Thank you very much Mzingo-i believe I'm right!!!

Excellent
My husband and I booked a 7 day safari trip with Mzingo Wild Adventures after a recommendation from a work colleague. Annie was a brilliant organiser who made sure the itinerary was perfect for us (I wanted to try and catch some of the wildebeest river crossing in the Masai Mara so this was factored into the plan).
We spent 2 days in Amboseli, 1 day at Lake Naivasha (with a hippo boat ride included in the price) and 3 days in the Masai Mara. The hotels and food were all included and Annie upgraded us at no extra cost when two of the initial hotels suggested turned out to be fully booked. We opted for the two add ons: the crescent island walk and visiting a Mara village, both of which were excellent and memorable experiences.
Our safari guide and driver, Daniel, was a master at finding wildlife and very knowledgable - we learnt so much about the animals and Kenya! Our highlights included a cheetah with 5 cubs, a leopard, some of the river crossing, and the Mara lions.
I would 100% recommend Mzingo Wild Adventures to anyone wanting a hassle-free safari booking experience and a fantastic safari adventure.

Excellent
We had an excellent experience with Mzingo from start to finish for our 4 night trip to the Maasai Mara. We were 7 in our party. Annie was very responsive and professional throughout helping us find something fit for us, including our budget. Our guide was excellent and took good care of us throughout - he also knew where to spot leopards twice, while also helping us see 7 cheetahs, including a mother and four teenage cubs on the hunt. Our hotel was excellent and our guide also helped us get a better deal on some souvenirs we bought from a local massai manyatta, after we lodged a complained. I recommend Mzingo - they are a small Kenyan company that are good to support - they do a great job.
