Matt was outstanding, knowledgeable and accommodating to all of our needs.
5/5

We just returned from our 11 day Inspire and Explore: Awaken in the Wild Safari, followed by 3 days at the Diani Beach Resort. Wow, Wow, and Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We anticipated the trip of our lives and it was everything we hoped it would be and more.
Right from the beginning of our planning process Matt from Tapestry of Africa held our hand and answered all of our questions. He put our minds at ease and generated more excitement during our online video call. We were guided flawlessly with a packing list, vaccination requirements, visa requirements and tipping suggestions over the months preceding our trip. It didn’t feel overwhelming because the tips were spread out and manageable. From the moment we landed in Africa, we had so many jaw dropping moments. George, our guide who drove us everywhere for 11 days was incredibly knowledgeable and gifted in his domain. He got us up close and personal with the BIG 5!! We learned so many interesting facts that we had to record them in our phones. The safari rides were breathtaking with seeing so many animals cohabitating. With a memorable village visit, we got to experience the people of the Samburu Tribe. It was a day we will never forget. The rides from one camp to the next were eye-catching as we saw many cities and countryside views of Kenya. The hot air balloon ride and bush champagne breakfast on the savanna were another highlight as we enjoyed the views of zebras, giraffes, buffalos and elephants nearby while eating a delicious meal. The camps were definitely luxury - way better than glamping. The Elephant Bedroom Camp was definitely our favourite as we were served delicious meals while watching the elephants bath in the river. The Beach Resort was absolutely beautiful with it’s numerous pools cascading down to the Indian Ocean. Matt and his wife Linda were with us on our trip and we thoroughly enjoyed the evening group reflections of the day and Matt’s messages which brought even more meaning to our experience. The photos we have are truly breathtaking and a treasure of the most amazing trip ever! Thank you Tapestry of Africa. We are so happy that we chose you!!

I was fortunate to join my stepmother in fulfilling her lifelong dream of going on a Safari. Tapestry of Africa Tours and Safaris did not disappoint. The weather was perfect and no crowds. "OUR 13 DAYS WAS UNBELIEVABLE, AMAZING AND WILL BE A MEMORY THAT WILL LAST A LIFETIME!" We had a wonderful small group of 7 (Me, Jill, Matt and Linda Jenson, Lisa, Terry and Henry) plus our Awesome guide, "Unique Gee aka George," who took over 1500 photos which I compiled down to 51 from our lodges and game drives starting in Nairobi to Nakuru, Ol Pejeta, Samburu, Masai Mara then back to Nairobi. We saw the Big Five, the Special Five, the Ugly Five and Much more. Best trip ever!!!

Our tour operator was the best.!!! Extremely knowledgeable and made our Safari unforgettable.
5/5

After a lot of research I came across Tapestry of Africa Tours and Safaris. I contacted Matt Jensen and was impressed by his knowledge ,enthusiasm and commitment to ensuring that our Safari would be the best experience ever. He did not disappoint. Everything, from the staff, accommodations, meals, and of course the daily Safari drives were top notch. Having traveled a lot I have to say this vacation was unforgettable and a longtime dream come true for me.

The perfect combination of adventure, luxury, and excellent customer service
5/5

From start to finish, this Kenya safari exceeded every expectation I had. The itinerary took us through an incredible variety of parks and reserves, each with its own landscape, rhythm, and wildlife personality. One moment we were watching elephants wander across the savannah, and the next we were quietly observing big cats in their natural habitat. The sheer range of animals we encountered made every game drive feel like I was living in “Planet Earth.”

What truly elevated the experience, though, was our guide, George. He wasn’t just a driver—he was a master driver, spotter, and photographer all in one. His knowledge of the parks, animal behavior, and local culture added depth to every moment. Thanks to him, we never felt like passive observers; we were participants in something extraordinary.

The camps and resorts were equally impressive. Each one blended comfort with authenticity, offering warm hospitality, beautiful design, and thoughtful touches that made us feel both pampered and connected to the environment. Elephants Bedroom was a particularly immersive experience with up-close encounters with elephants, monkeys, and even a crocodile!

But perhaps the most remarkable part of the entire journey was the level of customer service and communication. Every detail—big or small—was handled with care, clarity, and genuine warmth from Matt and his team. From the planning stages to the final farewell, I felt supported, informed, and valued. It’s rare to find a company that operates with this level of professionalism and heart.

If you’re considering a safari in Kenya, look no further than Tapestries of Africa.

Trip of a Lifetime. No regrets!
5/5


We went on a once in a lifetime trip with Tapestry of Africa in January 2026 – to Kenya and Tanzania. Summary: we can’t recommend Tapestry enough.

But here are some of our thoughts from start to finish.

We initially contacted a number of safari providers – all of which had excellent recent reviews. This was the bar to entry for us. We chose Tapestry based on our level of comfort after a briefing call with the owner Matt. He clearly had a high level of expertise. He set us at ease. And we got a feeling this company had a nice balance of professionalism (later we would get emails on everything from packing lists, to tipping to vaccines) and personalised service. We did not feel like one of hundreds of clients. We felt like we crafted a bespoke trip with confidence. Despite being Canadian, we felt at ease booking with Matt, and his American-based company.

Other good points – pricing was on par with other companies. There was a super network of support in Africa (thanks Hilda!), and the fact that part of our trip went to supporting Matt’s charity that gives dentistry services to local people in Africa was a lovely silver lining.
We were able to customize almost every detail of our trip. We edited certain lodges that we wanted or opted out of. We chose how long we were at each location. We opted for ground travel vs. flights. Every detail could be executed exactly as we wished. We had rounds of revisions to our itinerary, and it was never a problem. We had confidence in our choices because Matt had actually been to most of the parks we chose, and was able to give us first hand advice.

Accommodations chosen (we did upper level to luxury lodges, but not super luxury) were all winners. Food, security, rooms – each time we arrived at a location we were thrilled to discover our new home for the next few nights.

Guides. Your guide will make or break your trip. We had one in each country, and each had their specific strengths. BOTH were absolutely amazing at finding animals. The wildlife we saw defies description. We saw the Top 5. We saw the Ugly 5. We saw cheetahs making a kill, and lions sunbathing with their wildebeest carcass next to them. Elephants walking feet away never became novel. We did safari mostly for the animals and geography of the area – and our guides made that happen in spades.

Our safari days were safe. The guides respected the land and the animals we were so lucky to be surrounded by. And when someone has passion for their job – its obvious. Ours was a private safari (just us and our guide) so we could tailor our days as we pleased. Want to end early because jet lag has you zonked – ok. Want to leave at dawn for a balloon ride – ok. If it was possible, the answer was always yes. If you want to (repeatedly) ask if you can get out of the truck and pet something – the answer will always be no. But I kept trying ;)

Our guides were professional, punctual, skilled drivers and animal finders (imagine laser vision that would astound you!). A special mention goes to our guide Kim in Kenya. We really do hope to stay in touch with Kim, as he was so personable and kind. We made a friend outside of the safari truck, and that was one of the most special surprises of the trip. If you can ask for Kim – ask for Kim.

We would like to think that as clients we are easy enough to work with. But we had some special needs. My partner had a special request that was kept entirely secret from me – and everyone went above and beyond to make this happen. Hilda was exceptional before, during, and after our trip. She is the puppet master making sure all goes well behind the scenes. When we had a bit of stomach upset, likely just jet lag, she was so supportive and available to us constantly “but not after 11pm, as I will be sleeping” – that kind of support. We didn’t have any glitches during our trip – but I’m guessing if we did they would have been made right in no time.

We would not hesitate to suggest Tapestry of Africa. For us this was our biggest adventure to date, and Tapestry and all it’s staff really made it seamless, stress-less, and the trip of a lifetime.
