Best holiday of our lives, and we've been to over 30 countries. Special beyond words
5/5

WOW!! I honestly don't know where to start.. my husband and 5 year old daughter went to Kenya for a 5 day safari - we went to Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, and the Masai Mara all very beautiful and amazing

1. Noah, the man who responds and organises all the tours was amazingly patient and so very helpful!! I'd send him an email, mind you we are 9 hours behind and I'd get emails straight away, he answered all our questions, we forgot to see about getting a car seat for our 5 year daughter until we arrived in Africa. I emailed him from the airport and when Eustace, our fabulous guide, showed up the next day car seat was in the car! My husband realised the day before we were leaving Kenya he forgot his credit card at the hotel in Lake Naivasha ( we'd stayed at 3 nights prior a bit annoyed with the hotel that they didn't call us or Noah as we'd booked through them but definitely not Wildebeest's fault!) so Noah sorted it out got our card to Nairobi. Eustace got it to us before we left for the airport- mind you he had to leave his house early in the morning to get to the courier office to pick up the card, then get to our hotel as the traffic was terrible he abandoned his vehicle got on a moped taxi to make sure we got it before we left for the airport at 9AM. Amazing customer service!!
2. Eustace, our lovely guide, he was so nice and very patient as we had our 5 year old daughter who can be a bit difficult. Every morning he'd have a smile on his face waiting for a new day. He was knowledgeable about the animals and the places we were, very well spoken, and now very much loved by our daughter and our family he made our trip so very special. My little one was desperate to see lions, her favourite animal, and every time we stopped to talk to another guide he'd ask if anyone had seem some.. We were very lucky and saw a mating pair in Masai Mara- we were the only jeep around for a while totally amazing!!
3. Lodges- we stayed in 3 different lodges during our 5 day safari - all were beautiful, clean and had wonderful beds!
4. Journey- we drove to all our destinations and I now see why people fly in and out of the safari camps the roads are horrible but of course this isn't Wildebeest's fault… However if we hadn't driven we wouldn't have seen the great divide and have fond memories of Nairobi traffic, going off road on the highway because there was a huge hole in it, seeing camels, cattle, goats, and chickens as road blocks, and getting our Kenyan massage! ( riding on an unpaved very bumpy road for about 3 hours!)

I highly suggest using this outfit the customer service goes above and beyond. The pricing is so very competitive!! I don't know how they did it but one of the hotels we stayed in was roughly $600/night we stayed 2 nights our whole safari was only $2500 for 2 adults and 1 child…. We considered that a fantastic deal!! When we head back to Kenya, this is definitely who we'll be using!! Fab time!!

5/5

When we came out of the airport, our driver was already waiting for us. He brought us to the Stanley Sarova Hotel in Nairobi, which exceeded expectations.
Immediately, whe felt welcome and in good company.
Our driver Dennis, was excellent. He took no risks on the road. After arriving in the Masai Mara, we discovered that he tried to show us as much as possible. He also gave us the time to enjoy the wildlife, by stopping the vehicle, every time we asked for it.
The lodges Wildebeest Safaris booked, where clean, comfy, very good.
We enjoyed the Safari very much and wood most certainly recommend them to all our friends.

Our first safari - but not our last - amazing country, amazing widlife, fabulous guide!
5/5

We took advice from friends and booked a private tour. Wildebeest Safaris were fantastic from start to finish! We visited 4 parks, drove to each one - great way to see the real Kenya. Our guide Eustus was extremely knowledgeable about everything Kenyean and his love for his country and its wildlife was infectious. The accomodations were excellent and our vehicle had good and comfortable seats - it is worth paying the extra for a comfortable car - you spend many hours in those seats! Highly recommend this company on all levels.

Excellent experience with knowledgable guide!
5/5

We recently visited Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli with them on a private safari for two. The vehicle (landcruiser) and guide provided were excellent. Noah is so quick to respond and was so catering to every little query I had which was what first attracted me to hiring them. Our driver and guide Eustace was very experinced and a bag of fun! Ours was a very last minute trip inspite of which they booked decent places and made sure everything was perfect. i will definetely plan my next tour to east Africa with them!

Excellent experience, combining professionalism , kindness and choice of areas for safari and lodge
5/5

Our experience has been extraordinary. Safaris and tour as a whole had all you can expect from these activities: adventure, comfort, luxury in most of the hotels, kind deal, without any lack of seriousness.

We leave to the Wildebeest technics to decide about the best areas (according to the season ) for visiting, and likewise about the lodges . Their chosen options had been always correct: to visit Ndutu Area when all mammals breed at the same time, and you can drive freely has given us the opportunity of undergo some of the more amazing safaris in our live.

Moreover, the chosen lodges offered luxury, kind personnel attention and perfect locations. We are mainly impressed with the Kitela and the Burunge Tented Camp. Both are among the better hotels we’ve ever known.

As in the continent, our stage in Zanzibar was also pleasant. We enjoyed a lot with the Breeze Hotel facilities and personnel care. Meal, services, pool, cleanliness of rooms …

Thanks to all the staff of Wildebeest Safaris Ltd. Mainly to Hamza, who was our guide for all purposes. We’ll never forget this experience, and we promise to repeat as soon as it may be possible!

Trip of a life time
5/5

We did a 7 day private safari in Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, Tarangire National Parks, Tanzania. I can't recommend Wildebeest Safaris and our guide Hamza more highly. We saw so many animals it was incredible and Hamza was very knowledgeable about everything. Overall the safari lived up to our expectations and more, just wish we could do it all over again! The choice of accomodation was pretty good especially the Ngorongoro Wilderness Lodge, we didn't a choose luxury safari so the accomodation meet our expectations.

A magical African experience in Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru in Kenya.
5/5

This was my first trip to Africa and it was with trepidation that I undertook this journey as I was scared of being surrounded by wildlife. However, my trepidation was for nothing as I was under the constant care and guidance of Wildebeest Safari personnel who catered to our every needs. I was fascinated by the very nature of the beauty of both flora and fauna, and all this in a natural environment. This has to be experienced in order to believe the astounding beauty. I wish to personally thank Noah from management for the excellent facilities in Sarova Game Camps. I cannot leave out Dennis who was the most friendly, witty, tour guide who happened to be a walking fountain of knowledge. I can hardly wait to return!
