Good Experience
4/5

The overall experience with Wild Race Africa Safaris was amazing; they were organized, timely and very prompt in their services. we happened to plan our trip during the migration season so we made it just in time for the wildebeest migration and Masai Mara is beautiful. I was a little hesitant with the online payments to a local agent but Simon and team were very helpful and guided us through whole process of designing the itinerary in the best possible manner and arranging for pay pal links for advance payment.
we saw the big five during our 4 day stay and so we were very glad and went back satisfied. must check out the local shopping in the area!!

Ecellent Best of Kenya Safari Eperience With apersonal touch!!
5/5

Want the best of safari experience that meets your desires and delivers to your expectations? Then superscript Africa safari and her team of excellent professionals is the company to walk you to the wild for an excellent wildlife safari experience.
We are a group of 42 students taking our research at edgerton university and then decided to have a taste of the African/kenya has to offer. We Gore to Simon milanbo through recommendation from my two great friends from Netherlands who had a safari experience with this mighty company.
Simon was very helpfully in array gong our 6days best of kenya luxury safari,vety swift in his mail responses giving detail by detail,flexible and most importantly the safari cost is very pocket friendly.

The massive Mara accommodation at the solar lodges was excellent and our guide phanuel and Derick were the best guides we could ever had for the entire trip. Very flexible, have great passion and love for their job. Very knowledgeable and explained everything into details leaving nothing untouchable from insects, birds,trees and animals. At some point we felt like we were taken back to the lecture room that was very much I.portant to us as it was online with our research topic.
We were the first to get to the animals,have best shots and then derick would communicate to the others to come have a shot too.
We saw almost all the big five just in one day and the rest of the day was just like a bonus. Each and every day we did get to learn something new.
Trip to lake nakuru/Naivasha was excellent,the accommodatio ns were excellent and located right at the heart of the park, we got so close to the Animals on foot in lake naivasha on a walking safari,bicycle ridind and more amazing part of it was the boat ride to the crescent island which is a paradise on its own.
The trip was amazing,excellent,very much accommodating team of staff full of great sence of humour.
Wildrace Africa exceeded our expectation and sure will always recommend this company for their kind and excellent work.
Keep it up Simon, when we get back home, we will send you our group in April 2016.
God bless you and your entire team till we meet again.
Cheers!

Amazing safari in Kenya and Tanzania - thank you Wild Race for the trip of a lifetime
5/5

Went on a 10 day safari in Tanzania and Kenya in August 2015 and had an incredible time. Wild Race Africa were incredibly helpful throughout the planning process, and helped us put together an itinerary that suited our budget and timescales. The guides we had on both the Tanzanian and Kenyan side (Godlove and Gordon) were both incredibly knowledgeable and helpful - we learned so much on tour. Saw the big 5 within the first 3 days (which is apparently very rare and lucky!) and also we were lucky enough to see baby leopards, baby cheetahs learning to hunt and a baby elephant less than 2 weeks old.

We stayed in a range of accommodation styles, from luxury resorts also to temporary private campsites. Personally, I felt the campsites were the most memorable and special - we were right in the heart of the wild (eg the Serengeti on the Tanzanian side), so could zebras and other forms of wildlife walk past the camp in the middle of the night. Felt completely safe and comfortable the whole time. The chef on site cooked up some amazing meals, and all of the staff ensured we were very well looked after. We could also sit outside the tent (which is fully furnished with a double bed and hot showers etc) each evening to watch the sun set and enjoy a glass of wine after a day of game drives.

Would highly recommend Wild Race. We specified our budget and requirements, and kept communicating with Simon until we reached what we felt was the right itinerary for us. They are very flexible and accommodating. Highly recommend. Thank you Simon, Japherth, Godlove, Gordon and the rest of the team - you guys were great :)

Fantastic
5/5

We had a 10 day safari across Tanzania and Kenya that was organised by WildRace - it was seamlessly organised and one of the best trips we've ever been on

We saw the big five within a day and learnt so much from the knowledgeable guides - as well as being able to relax in nice surroundings and accomodation

Would definitely recommend Wildrace to friends

5/5

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....

Horrible !!!!!
1/5

The worst experience I had with a company. I’m not use to write reviews but in this case i need to do it to inform potential futur customers.

DO NOT BOOK with them.

When you ask quotation there are really professional and kind but when you start the safari it’s the mess trouble everyday!!!
A few point amour a lot of others:
-Schedule not respected (they change the plan without inform us)
-they ask money to some customers to pay the park entrance!!!!! (Cause they didn’t got enough money !)
-we went for 5 days others in the car for 3 days we lost half day to change cars
-Hotel is a fake they didn’t respect the hotel the gave in the schedule

Nothing works well there is plenty of other companies so book anywhere else.

The headquarter is located in Kenya We did in Tanzania so don’t believe this guy and his subcontractor friends in Tanzania!
It’s maybe not the direct fault of Kenya office. But anyway with book with wild race Africa so you are responsible of the reliability of your subcontractors !

Hello Jerome.
First my sincere apologies for the bad experience you had in Tanzania under the care of our Tanzania representative. As per our Knowledge and the feed back we got from them is that the trip went successful but this review says contrary. We had taken action on this and we no longer work with him any more.

We have partnered with a Tanzanian local as per their constitution requirement and will now be operating all our trips as Wildrace Africa.

Thank you very much for your kind feed back and for letting us know.
These feed backs helps us adjust our services accordingly so that all our future clients do not go through the same bad experience ever.
Warm regards and stay blessed.

5/5


My husband, daughter, son, mother, and dad decided that its time to be in Africa and settle to organize our safari trip with a local tour operator / Tour and travel agency and this is how we found Simon and Wild Race Africa Safari Tours and Travel.
The company is pretty median in size and the service provided was beyond our expectation. Prior to your travel, Simon is very helpful in understanding your needs and tailoring a holiday safari package that is within your budget accordingly. He is also super fast replying to your emails/ Skype / google messenger / Whatsapp. Let's be honest, it is OK to be skeptical in a place you have never been before but Simon and his team of professionals give you this trust from the first minute to the last. From the first driver who picks you up at the airport to the experienced safari guides during the safari his Excellency Mr. Obama.
We took 7 days Kenya Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli tour package and it just blow off our mind. The animal's view was superb, the lodges, the food and even the guide himself was a professor in his own way.
I would like to send my special thanks to our safari driver George in Masai Mara. He has a good command of English and has a solid understanding of wildlife both from a practical and scientific point of view.

An unforgettable trip with good company
5/5

Hello!
I share my personal experience:
Our program in September 2019 was designed for 6 nights and three national parks:
Samburu - 2 nights
Nakuru-1 night (2-3 is better); we liked it there the most. Non-terrestrial landscape. Inexpressible! And you can just relax there. View from the hotel to the rift valley. Rhinos are often found.
Masai Mara - 3 nights
I must say that we were satisfied.

We had a really great time with our guide China, we saw the big five and so much animals, he always tried to do his best to teach us so many things. We booked our Safari at the last moment and the communication and service were fluid and we have really good accomodations for a good price.
