Amazing safari
We visited Kenya last September and the whole experience was great. Definitely "Wildebeest Safari" is the best option for you to book your trip, a few reasons are:
- Clear and quick responses to all our questions (via email, WhatsApp and phone - basically 24/7 availability)
- Flexibility. Even though they give very good options (schedules, hotels, locations, etc.), they will adjust to your needs without any complaint.
- Excellent customer service. We were treated extremely well by them, during the planning ´process (by Noah) and while we were there (our guides).
- Knowledgeable and polite guides. We were fortunate to have Andrew and Frank as our guides. Both were great! They know where to go, how to get close to the animals without disrupting them and they are very friendly and patient. Good photographers as well.
Our recommendation for you is to go on a private safari. It is more expensive, but we truly found it worth it.

Well organised. Exceptional guide.
Adequate communication with Noah. Happy to be flexible and adjust itinerary to our wishes. All travellers should have some understanding of safari and what they want and don’t want to assist your companies in organising what can be very diverse style of travel.

Great experience
I absolutely loved it all - thank you for arranging a very good itinerary. Hamza, our guide, was such a delight and definitely made sure we enjoyed the safari.
The two minor things I would say for improvement is: under your information tab (on the itinerary), that the weather for winter needs to be updated. I didn't realise that the temperatures would be about 10˚C in the mountains, and therefore didn't pack a warm jacket. In terms of lodging - Ocean Paradise Hotel only gave us half board when we were promised full board according to our itinerary.
Apart from that though, the people of Tanzania are wonderfully warm and welcoming and we had the most wonderful time.

Wildebeest Safaris exceeded our expectations
We booked a weeklong safari at Wildebeest Safaris for our honeymoon. We deliberately decided to book directly in Kenya and not with a German tour operator to support a local provider and then save the commission of the German provider, who ultimately buys the service on site.
Our entire trip was very well organized, all transfers worked flawlessly, the Landcruisers were in good condition and our guides were really knowledgeable and fun.
From Nairobi we started in the Masai Mara and our guide Andrew gave us two unforgettable days with special impressions. Afterwards, we were handed over to Hamza on the border with Tanzania and visited the Ngorongoro after two days in the Serengeti. He too was competent and happy to be at work. Finally, we saw all the big animals and collected unforgettable impressions, including African massage ;-)
The booking of the luxury accommodations (Mara Eden Camp, Serengeti Tortilis Camp, Ngorongoro Serena Lodge) was easy and we were also well looked after there. Finally we were handed over again on the border with Kenya and taken to the airport Nairobi. The changes at the border took place without any problems and without waiting times.
Overall, our safari was very well organized, with the two guides we had a lot of fun and therefore we can recommend Wildebeest Safaris with a clear conscience.

Difficult driver changed the plan
The pre-tour booking was very efficient. The tour was simple to book, we were provided great options for accommodation and we were given clear level of detail. However, unfortunately our experience with the driver was far from positive. We had booked a full game drive, plus two game drives, but in reality, we were given a full day + 2 hours. The driver was then disagreeing with us on the second half day, and said that we had to get back to Nairobi. We are not usually confrontational people, but we felt that it was really unfair to not finish the agreed itinerary. This made us feel really uncomfortable as we didn't want to be disagreeing on the plan, however, we had flown such a long way for these three days and we really wanted to spend our agreed time in the park. The driver begrudgingly agreed to take us back into the park, but we only spent 2 hours there, rather than the half day. What really polished it off was on our way home, we stopped to fill up the tyres and one of our passengers got out to use the rest room. Before the passenger even got back into the car, the driver started driving out of the petrol station! He was very rude, didn't make an effort to learn our names and made it apparent that he didn't want to be hosting the trip. He was also making multiple personal phone calls throughout the trip. It was really very disappointing.

Posted on Oct 1, 2018Dear Kate,
Thank you for your email feedback which we really appreciate.
I would first like to take this opportunity to advise you this particular driver is no longer with us and hence been replaced by a more experienced driver/guide. We clearly give briefing to Driver/guides before each Safari so that they are aware. Talking on mobile phones unless it's work related is usually unacceptable.
We will continue improving on our services in the coming future.
Best Regards,
Noah Kuti,

Excellent communication with comprehensive travel plan that cater my requests
The team was great in replying my emails and it is beyond what i have expected. The safari tour itself is a once-in-a-lifetime experience where my guide, Eusty is so professional in explaining different type of animals and surrounding to us.

Very responsive, transparent and extremely experienced!
Since the first time contact, Noah and Samuel had been very prompt in replying all my emails with all sorts of questions. Based on what I was looking for, they customized the safari. Our guide cum driver..Dennis.. went above and beyond our expectations trying to meet our wishes and demands. He mad sure we had the best time during the 7 days safari trip starting from Nairobi>Amboseli>Lake Nukuru>Masai Mara > Nairobi.
Dennis made sure we not even watch and see 'Big Five' but same time experience their behavior in groups which was truly amazing.
Given all the challenges which comes to such Safaris including very bad road and traffic conditions while traveling from one park to another, its remarkable as how these people able to manage it successfully.
In summary, we had the most memorable vacation and will cherish the experience throughout the life.

Wonderful experience in the Mara.
My son joined me for this tour of Kenya’s Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Wildebeest tours put it together for us. We could not have been happier. All the arrangements were first class and better than our expectations. The staffs at the two camps, Flamingo Hills Camp and Loyk Mara Camp were outstanding. They were so friendly and helpful. Many thanks to our guide Timothy who made sure our visit was meaningful.
I would gladly recommend Wildebeest Tours to others planning a trip to Kenya.
