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.

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.

Great safari experience with skilled/experienced driver/guide
We wen't on a 5N/6D safari across the parks/areas of Tarangiri, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Manyara in early June and were quite happy with Wildebeest Safaris.
While Noah Kuti, the owner, was as communicative and clear as we'd expect, the biggest factor in our satisfaction was no doubt our skilled and experienced driver/guide Hamza, who managed to give us great viewing experiences of not only the Big Five (Black Rhino at a great distance, though), but also a Great Migration event consisting of a frenzied herd of thousands of Wildebeest + Zebras crossing a river in central Serengeti. The latter felt like I imagine it would feel like to see a crossing of Grumeti River with crocs and all, just that there were no crocs in the particular river location we observed 'our' crossing.
The lodges and tent camps chosen by Wildebeest Safaris for our safari were also quite alright, with just one negative thing (not major) to note about one of them (in separate review).
All in all we were quite happy and satisfied with our safari trip.
I'd say, however, that it depends very much on which driver/guide you get, so our advise is to try to ensure that you do get a truly experienced guide. Our driver/guide Hamza's 15 years experience of doing safaris in the area, as well as his good understanding and positive attitude, certainly played a role.

Private safari in three conservatives- big five + 1 spotted, excellent lodging in the wilderness.
We had a private safari, me and my two kids, ten and fourteen. We felt safe all the time. The guide Willy was excellent- with lot of of knowledge and respect for the nature and animals he guided us through Amboseli, Nakuru lake and Masai Mara national parks. We saw loads of wild animals including the big five plus a cheeta. As a bonus we saw a lot of the country of Kenya during the long drives between conservatives. Met so many nice and friendly people. Super tent lodges - clean, fresh and well equipped and perfect service.

Everything about our trip was Magical.
Our Safari with wildebeest Safaris was PERFECT!! Noah was here to answer ALL our questions before the trip and it is an understatement to say that our trip and itinerary exceeded our expectations by far!! Hamza, our guide and driver was AMAZING! We got to see the big 5 thanks to him and he made sure we saw all the animals from up close! We went to LAKE MANYARA, SERENGETI and then Ngorongoro Crater with him and he ALWAYS has a smile on his face and is super experienced after more than 11 years as a guide!
All the hotels Noah booked for us were top-notch and we’re super picky! It was really magical from A to Z.
The second part of our trip was Zanzibar and we had booked it by ourselves on booking.com when we got there, the hotel was a Catastrophe! We hated it and couldn’t stand to stay there even for one night! ( as I said we are super picky ) I immediately called NOAH and told him what had happened! He IMMEDIATELY sent his driver Suleiman to the hotel to stay with us while he tried to book for us LAST MINUTE a an amazing resort in Zanzibar and his driver took us there that same night! This is our last day there and we never want to leave!
I DEFINITELY recommend you book with wildebeest safaris as they will accompany you every step of the way!
Thank you Noah and Thank you wildebeest safaris for the trip of a lifetime! Will definitely be back!!

Great Safari with easy communication
Me and my girlfriend booked a 3-day Massai-Mara private safari. This was our first trip to east Africa and also our first safari.
The pre-booking communication with Noah was easy-going and hassle free. Our Driver picked us up in Nairobi and after three days dropped us off at Nakuru.
Our Driver and Guide Joseph was great and had an excellent experience in spotting animals that were well hidden. The park was huge and beautiful. Our Lodge was located on a small mountain right outside the park. The Lodge was incredible. The staff was extremeley nice, the surrounding jungle gave the place an unique feel and the view over the mara was breathtaking.
The ride in our Land Cruiser was enjoyable, in spite of the kenyan roads.
We were lucky to see four out of the "big five" as well as numerous other animals. Only the Rhino didnt show himself in the Mara (we did see Rhinos later in Nakuru).
I can highly recommend this tour operator. Ask for Joseph!

Very nice safari
Very nice and well organised safari. The lodges were amazing and the guide very interesting. We had a small problem regarding the car which was a van instead of a jeep but they are going to refund us the price difference.
