True magical safari experience
Box 100: Can not say enough about what a magical trip that our travel agent simon milambo and his team did for me and my family. If you are looking for customer service, detailed itinerary and fully satisfying informations that will clear off your doubts and value for money, then this is your company. I love the detail of speaking with me on the phone, simon is always on the go with answers to our bunch of questions to see what really I was looking for on my dream trip to East Africa. The itinerary was followed to the latter and each place was incredible, to the tempo and places. Already talking with them about my return trip and only been home 5 days. Super company , wildrace Africa safaris!
The most memorable part of my trip; all 5 senses were engaged at all times the guide George is a super human, Always the fast to spot the Animals, at a point we felt like we were in a lecture room, all details about each and every animal, land scape, people and even life spun, amount of food to the adaptive and mechanic defence of all the animals were just but at his fingertips. Kudos George you love your job will sure recommend you for private guide in our next trip .The people of Kenya and Tanzania, so happy and so welcoming. I wanted to feel the soul and heart beats of these 2 countries and as my head is bowed I am grateful as I did receive. Thank simon keep up the good work. You have a big heart.

What an Excellent Safari experience;Kudos Wildrace Africa and The Team
I can't compare the service offered by Wildrace Africa Safaris with any other company since we are not first timers in Africa and Kenya to be specific. We volunteer in Kenya every year and at the end of it we have to take a break and adventure tour Kenya before flying back home. But this other time round this company just crack it all. What else would one want in a safari/travel agent if not reliability, quality services and satisfaction? We felt overall that it was not close to perfect but more than perfect and the team,staffs and guides are just but excellent infact.... Wildrace Africa from the word go are the overland safari Magicians in we've ever met in east Africa.
My friends and fellow collegues chose to travel with wildrace Africa because, when I contacted several potentials including the ones we had once trusted to offer us their best. Simon was the only person who answered the questions I asked and was very first in his responses, he could reply our mails like he was just waiting for it to land on his mail box,he was very help full and flexible throughout the booking process, offered plenty of advice since we were a big group of 26 persons. He met us just before the safari and fully explained everything, was readily available during the trip if we had any questions or concerns (not that we did).
The guide George took us across Kenya from Samburu , lake nakuru, naivasha,Masaai mara, amboseli to Tsavo West. Believe me when I say this company is accompany of qualified professionals, he was an exceptionally good in all, safe driver which is incredibly important on some of those very dangerous highways, not to mention dirt tracks through the safari parks. Very knowledgeable, fluent in English and to top it all he speaks like seven languages which is just incredible. We saw a lot of animals among other awesome activities..., would highly recommend wildrace Africa for anyone who would really want to feel the true taste of being in an African safari and sure we will definitely be using them for our next trip for migration 2014.

Very reliable company. Great guide who accompanied us on the safari. Very knowledgeable about nature and the surroundings.
Good accommodations, in Maasai Mara the accommodation was also excellent, but long journey to the lodge.
Overall unique tour with unforgettable impressions in front of Kilimanjaro, at Lake Naivasha and in Maasai Mara

First time in Kenya and first safari
To give some context to my review, I'm the type of person that usually likes to travel without anything scheduled and figure out what to do in the place. Since this was our first time in Africa, our first Safari and we were going to Kenya in the elections period, we've decided to at least book the Safari online. Finding a company was not an easy task (there are way too many agencies) and Simon was probably the person that better replied to all my questions and did it a timely manner (he was replying much faster than I was replying to his emails, sorry pal!).
When we got to Kenya, everything went smooth but we've figure out that the online companies are nothing more than agencies that deal with freelance drivers and include us in a 4x4 with people from other companies. This is not a bad thing, but for someone that travels on the cheap, you are more than ok to go to Kenya, find one driver and negotiate with him directly. For those of you who prefer to do it the "safer way", I clearly recommend Wildrace Safaris .
Kenya is without a doubt an amazing country to travel around and see a different scenario from anywhere we've been in the world. We had the opportunity to see the big 5 between Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. When in Amboseli, if you can see "Cloudymanjaro", please celebrate for me.
Our trip was lovely and Simon made sure we were always ok during the entire trip. We ad a few roadbumps along the Safari, but "This Is Africa". The important part is that we really enjoyed the country, the safari and everything we crossed paths with.

Great safari adventure in Tanzania
The safari brought us to the unequaled beauty of wildlife in four parks in Tanzania. The guide was very knowledgeable l and fun to be with. We encountered a few mechanical problems with the jeep, but the guide was able to resolve them without overly impacting our excursions. The lodges were very nice and comfortable. We loved the trip.
The one thing that was unexpected was that the manager of the safari office wanted US$ cash payment for the balance due before we began the safari, but we had been told that credit card payment was acceptable. As we had limited cash, we were able to agree on both a cash and credit payment, but this was inconvenient and not right.

A very professional yet caring service provider
I must confess that it was very pleasant dealing with Simon from the onset. Simon ensured that he was constantly in touch with us during all stages from initiation/ planning to the culmination of the trip. All concerns/ suggestions were promptly taken care. Accommodation at Amboseli and Masai Mara were excellent; Nakuru accommodation was satisfactory.
However, there remained few concerns which surfaced because of Naivasha accommodation and also a 2 hours waiting period before start of Masai Mara trip as plan to induct another group was not properly planned. After raising these issues to Simon, he apologized immediately and took sincere care that any more problem is not encountered and remaining trip remains spot-less. Based on the feedback, he ensured that Naivasha accommodation was not repeated for any more tourist.
In all, I can say that he was a very professional and caring host and I will surely recommend him to all my friends.

Good Experience
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!!

Great safari, lots of wildlife.
The communication we received with the company was very good in the run up to the trip. All emails were answered promptly and efficiently. The safari went reasonably smoothly and we saw lots of wildlife, as we had hoped. The tour guide, Stanley,was very helpful and was able to identify most of the wildlife we saw. He worked hard to make our safari pleasant and comfortable. The travelling between the parks was very lengthy and I think it is better to spend longer in each park rather than to try and fit too much in and end up spending an awful lot of time in the safari van. The roads are not good and the traffic often very heavy too. The accommodation ranged from quite good hotels to basic tented camps. Upgrades might be preferred in these cases. The company provides good value for money compared with other quotes we received. I would recommend this company to others.
