Title: Excellent Extraordinary safari experiences of a lifetime.

We recently got back from a 3 weeks East African Safari adventure with the unrivaled African Specialist (Wild Race Africa Safaris company) and the experience was just but awesome with a touch of excellence.

We did get in touch with the Simon Milambo through a referral from my good friend who had traveled with Simon’s company and kudos to Simon, very flexible, extremely friendly, exceptionally knowledgeable and highly experienced. We visited Kenya Uganda and Tanzania and no enough words can describe the feeling… The whole trip was combined to an excellent standard with everything considered and professionally executed. The choice of safari lodges was excellent; very clean, good fresh delicious food, comfortable African style beddings at some point we felt the lodge were absolute luxurious with the best service from a team of great people. Simon and Wild race Africa did a great job incorporating everything we wanted, and everything went off without a hitch. Our guide Phanuel was the best of all the guides have ever used before in Africa, very knowledgeable and flexible, entertaining and fun to be with.  I would have no hesitation in recommending Simon Milambo and his team to source and deliver a first class luxury safari - they clearly understand this sector to perfection; Quick in responses, flexible, provides effective detailed information and most importantly reliable. We did not only get a touch of excellence but also value for money. Thanks, Simon and I will definitely come back....

5/5

Excellent great Safari experience
We had a wonderful tour with this company, cannot speak highly enough of their expertise, experience and they really looked after us. Our Kenya Tanzania safari could not have been better, had a good knowledgeable driver/ Guide, very much flexible, friendly and awesome in almost all aspect that would make our trip more enjoyable. Saw all the animals and the Lodges we stayed at were the best of all the lodges have ever used before on a safari like this. I highly recommend wild race AFrica for a great safari experience of a lifetime.

Best experience ever
5/5

Awesome African safari experience.
Thanks to Wild trace Africa Safari tours and her team of experts.
We booked a two weeks safari after reading reviews about this company and the incredible, greatest Kenya tour operator simon milambo who happened to be the sole owner of the company, and believe me, the experience form the point of booking to the end of the trip surpassed our expectation. The safari trip take place in jeeps in small groups (We had 7) so all get a window seat. Our guide Obama was simply excellent! He was very professional and extremely knowledgeable about the animals, birds and the country, not to mention the local peoples culture. Very fluent in English and little bit of French, Spanish and even Italian, something that we found quite incredible with him. Obama often spotted animals before we did and we were lucky enough to see lion cubs playing and male lions prowling next to a herd of wildebeest that later took to their heels for the incredible wildebeest migration across the Mara river. This trip was not just like any other trip, it was a onetime breath taking safari experience of a lifetime. I would thoroughly recommend simon milambo and wild race Africa safari adventure for all your African safari destinations for an excellent African safari experience like no other.

The African safari experience.
Much appreciation to African Habitat Safaris Safari tours and their team of experts for a memorable African tour.
We booked a two weeks safari based on reviews about the firm and an incredible Kenya tour operator Rachel was waiting on the other end. She, being the sole owner of the company facilitated the experience form the point of booking to the end of the tour. The safari was conducted in a van fit for my family. Our tour guide, Obama conducted the trip professionally depicting knowledge of the terrain, the wildlife and the culture revolving between Kenya and Tanzania country generally. The destinations across the two countries in Mara and Serengeti. That was a remarkable ten day experience out of Europe

Well organised, nice accommodation and food, the safari trip is incredible!
5/5

Perfect 4-day trip to Masai Mara for my partner and I. We saw everything except the rare black rhino. Best bit was seeing a leopard climb up a tree to eat its kill. Balloon trip is well worth the extra price. Mara Sopa lodge accommodation is fantastic and not far from the park entrance. Food is fine. Obama is a very knowledgeable guide and was very accommodating to our requests. Simon responded to all my emails in a quick fashion before the trip and also called me afterwards to check how the trip went. You travel around in a 10-seater Nissan safari van with a pop-up roof. Really useful to be picked up from Nairobi hotel and dropped off at airport. I would highly recommend Wild Race Africa!

Beautiful safari, easy booking
5/5

I booked a five days Tanzania safari and booking was very smooth and easy. Simon patiently and timely provided all the information I requested. It was a joining group safari with lodge accommodation. The safari was done by Tanzanian branch, all logistics worked perfectly even taking into the account the fact that our group changed a bit in the middle of the trip and that other people in the car were doing camping option. The company also told me that I can choose any starting day and any safari option and they will accommodate it.
The safari itself included visits to four national parks in the North of Tanzania: Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We saw plenty of animals, saw big five, all five days were exciting and amazing. The parks are very different and each is very special. Lodges which were booked for me were great. The pick up and drop off from/to airport were also included and were on time, in clean nice cars and with good driver.
The entire experience was very positive.

Excellent Experience
5/5

To book a safari online without a reccomendation requires a lot of trust. Wild Race delivered for my wife and I, and the whole experience was fantastic from start to finish. Many packages advertised are similar across many different companies, but I can guarantee that Wild Race offer great value and are one of the good guys.

Unforgettable holiday
5/5

Once in lifetime experience with and executive Touch!
I have always dreamt of being in Africa and thanks to simon and Wildrace Africa Safari Tour & Travel, my first time in Africa has been amazing, and for sure the safari trip was the best of it all!
Everything was supper perfect; Simon has been super helpful, swift in his responses, clear and precise in his explanations, very detailed in almost every aspect.
We landed in Kilimanjaro airport late in the night and as promised there was the driver waiting for us at the exit with our name paged on it. We were tranfered to Ilboru safari lodge for our night and later on picked up the next day in the morning to start our 6 days Northern Tanzania Safari visiting Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti National park with Arusha airport drop off for our flight to Zanzibar.
During our trip with Deodatus. We were able to spot all the big five and many more animals with lot of ease. Our guide was very professional, down to earth, flexible and quite accommodating with excellent driving skills leave alone the flora and Fauna.
Food was good and always more than enough, the lodges were excellent, best safari car one would ever want to be in for your Tanzania safari trip, very comfortable considering the roads' conditions.
I would not hesitate to recommend simon and his company for anyone who wants to have the best of African Safari experience of a lifetime.
They have both offices in Nairobi and Tanzania, we made our payment in Arusha office. Innocent Frank is the foreman in Arusha office.
Thanks simon, this was Unforgettable holiday!
