Wild Close Encounters in Africa
5/5

Tapestry staff is always on, always connected, always responding. That is the best experience a customer can have, especially while touring an unknown country and exploring wilderness. Special kudos to Matt.

They planned with every single detail in mind. Everything worked perfectly.

Kenya guide Sammy and Tanzania guide Yuda, both are trained for this business. Have acquired college education and go through continuous learning. Both knew exactly where to stop to spot the impossible.

Albert, from Nairobi, personally greeted us and also bid us good bye.

Thank you Tapestry of Africa. Looking forward to more adventures together.

Absolutely Incredible ❗️❗️❗️ The Best Trip Ever ❗️❗️
5/5

My wife and I; along with five other family members and two friends just experiences the most amazing and incredible journey of our life. Our group of nine included; four, 45-50; one mid 60's; and four, mid 70s to early 80s. As a group, we are very experienced travelers with averaging having visited over 40 countries each; some over 70. Four members have visited all seven continents and another four, six. I felt that I needed to lay this foundation for my review.
Each of us felt that this was the most incredible experience of our lives. Tapestry of Africa provided us an unbelievable, life changing experience. Their organization and communications with us was exceptional. Hilda provided support to us at all times and made us feel so special. Since there were nine in our group, they provided two vehicles with fantastic guide/driver. In Kenya, we had George and Vincent; in Tanzania, Yuda and Tanzanian Vincent. These guides were not just doing a job of guiding us in the National Parks and Conservations Areas. They were on a mission to share a lifetime of experience with us and to change our perspective on nature, wildlife, and conservation; they succeeded. We all have a greater appreciation for the experience we had and know that we have to help ensure these parks and conservation areas are available to future generations.
What can I say about the lodge accommodations, they were top notch and spectacular; the food delicious; but most importantly, the people were so friendly and sharing of their culture and the heritage are striving to protecting.
Our safari was planned as 11 days, five nights in three different national parks in Kenya and the same in Tanzania. Our group arrived a day early in Nairobi and Tapestry organized a day tour around Nairobi which included the Nairobi National Park; a visit to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust which is world famous for their work with orphaned elephants and rhinos. We saw the feeding time for over 20 baby elephants, the one baby rhino and a lone baby zebra and we got to fed giraffes at the giraffe center.
We spent the last two nights of the safari at Tortillas Camp in Amboseli National Park. This was a beautiful spot to end our incredible voyage of discovery. There is a perimeter fence and guards to ensure our safety but which allows us to roam the camp grounds and enjoy the natural beauty. I highly recommend adding another day there before returning to Nairobi.
Lastly, I want to thank the Matt and Albert who were always available to assist and answer questions.

Thorough, Accommodating and in Sync with what we were looking for.
5/5

We just did a 2 week safari and beach adventure with Tapestry of Africa. It was our first safari and we wanted to make sure we got everything as perfect as possible. During the planning phase I worked with Matt and Hilda to make adjustments to our itinerary as we wanted to eliminate 1 night stays as much as possible and decided to fly between Nairobi and Masai Mara as well as between the Masai and the Serengeti. All the changes were handled smoothly and in the end we ended up with a perfect customized adventure. Hilda was great to work with and very detail oriented. We decided to leave our last safari camp a day early and head over to Zanzibar for an extra day. Hilda was fabulous in arranging the last minute changes to our flights and booking an extra day at the Melia. She also arranged a last minute balloon ride for us as well as a game drive in Nairobi while we had a 12 hour wait for our flights home. Everyone at Tapestry was great to work with and very pleasant. From the time we landed in Nairobi and were met by Albert at the airport, we got the feeling that we booked with a great group of people. Bonifiace and Andrew were the guides we had in Kenya and Tanzania, both felt like good friends by the time we said our goodbye. Same with Joseph who took us out for the last game drive. All 3 guys are knowledgeable, personable and very accommodating. Still don't know how Andrew was able to spot the Dung Beetle while driving. The Big 5 are what most people want to see, but seeing a couple of The Small 5 was very cool too, and of course The Ugly 5. The vehicles were great, comfortable and fun. In the end, we had an absolutely incredible experience, saw far more animals than we ever imagined. Everywhere we went the food was fabulous and the accommodations were superb especially the Nairobi Serena, Kilima Camp in Masai Mara, Serengeti Serena, Lion's Paw, and the Melia in Zanzibar. Would definitely recommend Tapestry of Africa. We are already talking about a return visit.

Once in a lifetime experience- ASANTE!
5/5

I have just come back from a two week Safari/Zanzibar trip with Tapestry, and there are no words to describe how grateful I am to have chosen them to make our dream trip become a reality.

First, the whole planning/organizing process of the pre-trip was five star service. Matt, Albert, and Hilda all helped me and my mom figure everything out. They gave great advice, led us in the right direction without every pressuring us, and helped to tailor-make our itinerary so that it was perfect for us. They were also able to help us with logistical things like visas, medical appts, etc.

From the moment we landed in Kenya, everything was taken care of. We did not have to worry about a thing from the time we were in their hands, and for the entire two week trip, they stayed in touch making sure that we were happy and that everything was going according to plan.

Highlights:
-All lodging was amazing, the places they chose for us were beautiful and we felt lucky to stay at every one of them.
-They helped make our dream of a hot air balloon become a reality, organizing everything for us ahead of time. If you are able to do this, DO IT! It was breathtaking.
-From start to finish, their professionalism and organization made it possible to completely disconnect and enjoy the beautiful savannah. Not only were they able to answer any and ALL questions with a great respond time, but they even helped us with logistical issues getting refunds for a flight home that they were not responsible for.

Now for the real highlight, and the real reason you MUST choose them for your trip- the guides.

-Kevin: from the moment he picked us up at the airport, Kevin was so kind, knowledgable, and helpful. Thanks to him we got to take advantage of our few hours before Safari, visiting the giraffe center, a bead center (amazing!), and a quick tour of Nairobi.
-Kim: I can't imagine what our safari would have been like if it weren't for Kim. He was with us for our four days in Kenya, and made everything easy, interesting, and so much fun. He was so friendly and extremley intelligent, thanks to his conversation during the long rides, we learned a ton! He was happy to answer all questions, of which we had money, about animals and other curiosities we had about Kenya in general. In terms of the game drives, he had all the tricks! He is a skilled "finder", great driver, and has wonderful energy! From the first minute it became clear that he wanted nothing more than to make sure we saw the Big 5 (which we did!), it seemed like he would be more dissapointed than us if we didn't.

-Joseph: For the remainder of our safari, we were in Tanzania with Joseph. The highlight of our trip was the Serengetti (there's no way to prepare yourself for how amazing it is), and a lot of that is thanks to Joseph. Like Kim, he made it his mission for us to see the Big 5 (again!), and we did! He knew the park like the back of his hand, and knew EXACTLY where to go (it didn't seem like all guides knew because we were often by ourselves). He found us out of this world experiences, driving among lions on their rocks (total lion king moment!), stopping in the middle of hundreds and hundreds of zebra, and a perfect sighting up-close and personal of tons of other animals. He has a great attitude and made sure we were having fun the whole time.

Guys- we are so grateful to you! Hopefully we will cross paths in the future. ASANTE SANA!!

I am so grateful that for this once in a lifetime trip, we chose Tapestry Africa. No notes! If we were to ever repeat this vacation, we would go with them without a doubt.

Their professionalism, wildlife knowledge, communication, and care, blew us away.
5/5

There are barely words to accurately capture how unbelievable our experience was with Tapestry of Africa. We did 12 days of private safari, 9 of us, through Kenya and Tanzania and were just blown away by every step of the way. From the start, the communication with Matt Jensen, the owner was wonderful as he was so fast to respond and was always so thoughtful and thorough. Then the whole team from Hilda to Albert, and then the guides who were TOP NOTCH. We found the Big 5, and with their help and extensive experience, they were able to spot every animal we’ve ever dreamed of seeing in nature. George and Vincent in Kenya were so professional, kept us laughing, and educated us all along the way about the wildlife and you could tell they absolutely love what they do. We saw a cheetah our first day, endless giraffes, wildebeest, zebras, and herd after herd of elephants! There were tears when we had to say our goodbyes!
Yuda and Vincent in Tanzania were also expert guides and even found Leopards and a pride of 40 plus lions! They were wonderful, just like everyone we dealt with at Tapestry.

The accommodations were incredible, the food, the staff, the views, the beds! We had long days but with such a lengthy trip of 12 days, the older folks in our group had the option to sit out for some of the game drives and rest, so we were grateful we opted for a longer trip to see a wide variety of parks and scenery.

I can not recommend Tapestry enough. If you’re on the fence, just do it! It’s a trip of a lifetime and will build memories to last forever. We are planning to come back next year and next to Uganda, and of course use Tapestry.
