Our Kenya & Tanzania safari was a trip-of-a-lifetime and far exceeded our expectations!!
After reading tons of online reviews & corresponding with several safari tour operators, I decided to book my family’s 14-day Kenya/Tanzania safari adventure through East Africa Wild. During my initial phone conversation with Alym, it was clear that he is customer-focused and truly cares about his clients. He asked me questions and listened to my thoughts in order to understand my needs, desires & budget so he could design a customized itinerary specifically for my family. Alym is an expert planner…he is incredibly knowledgeable, detailed & responsive. He took care of every detail from the minute we were greeted at the Nairobi airport to the time we were dropped off at the Arusha airport to catch our return flight home.
East Africa Wild assigned private drivers/guides to us during our trip. Carlos was our tour guide in Kenya & Usiah was our guide in Tanzania. Their service was outstanding! Both of these guys were super friendly and went out of their way to make sure we were happy at all times. Carlos & Usiah were incredibly skilled at spotting the animals & knowing where to find them. We checked all the boxes on our list of “dream-come-true wild animal sightings,” and then we saw those rare animals again…and again! Carlos & Usiah also shared a lot of interesting information about the local people and their culture. We couldn’t have asked for better tour guides.
My family and I had been dreaming of taking an African safari for many years, and our recent trip far exceeded our expectations!! The people of Kenya & Tanzania are extremely friendly & welcoming, and the wildlife is unbelievable! There are no words to describe how awesome it was to have the amazing animals within a few feet of our safari vehicle and lodges/tents. We got some incredible pictures, but nothing compares to the excitement of being there to experience it in person. The Big Five…the wildebeest migration…I am still in awe!! Hopefully, I’ll be able to return to Africa to repeat this adventure-of-a-lifetime. If I do, I will absolutely reach out to Alym at East Africa Wild to have him plan the trip for me!!

5 days of extreme beauty!
The five-day safari was marvellous ! We saw amazing sceneries, very diverse across the 5 days. We were extremely lucky to see the Big 5 and more. Our guide, Omar, was a true safari expert and his experience was at times reassuring. Camping in the natural parks the last 2 nights was very special and watching the sunset in the morning was magical. Accommodation was good as well as food, thanks to Babu, our cook, who was very sweet.

Great experience
Had a great time on my safari, it ended up being a lot of driving as expected but couldn't have asked for a better guide and we got to see all of the animals we wanted to!
