6 Days Safari Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngrongoro in tented camps
Firstly, I would like to thank Simon for the organisation of our safari. He always answered competent and fast all my questions. At the end everything was arranged according to our wishes. Unfortunately we had to adapt something at short notice and he did the upmost to help us.
Secondly, I would like to thank Kevin, our driver. He is not employed by Mwema Africa Safaris, but works closely together with Simon. Already on the evening before our safari started, he passed to check if we had arrived. We felt safe and well looked after during the entire safari. He was always friendly, answered with his vast knowledge all our dozens of questions and did everything to ensure that we had the best experience possible. In the National Parks, the roads may be in a state where even well maintained 4x4 cars may reach their limits. Therefore, we had some technical issues with the car, but Kevin found always a solution to the problem.
I would recommend Mwema Africa Safaris to anyone interested in booking a personalised, perfect Safari.

Well executed Safari
Setting up the Safari was an easy task. Mwema were accommodating in finalizing the details for our journey to Amboseli and Masai Mara. We were a group of 9 people, two families, who traveled together on this trip and we were naturally looking for an operator who was able to give us a good itinerary. Our driver, Robert, proved to be a perfect guide and facilitator during our journey where he sorted out all issues that came up.
All in all a timely and well executed safari.

Excellent Safari with Mwema Africa
Simon from Mwema Africa Safari is very professional and provided be me with a fair quote for our custom safari in Tanzania (Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Serengeti). Everything went very smoothly since our first email and the trip was very well organized. This include all ground transportation from Kilimanjaro to Mwanza, national parks entrance fees, flight tickets from Wmaza to Kilimanjaro, up-scaled accommodation, great food, and of course very knowledgeable guide (Kevin) who knew where to look for animals and drove very safely.... Thank you Simon and Kevin

2 outstanding bases, one in the Masai Mara reserve, the second at Eagle View, Naboisho Conservancy
Starting with service, we were greeted so warmly in both of our bases and we found all of the staff to be very proactive in ensuring that we got the best from our visit. Our expectations were exceeded, by far, without doubt. My wife's birthday was marked by just about the whole of the Eagle View staff, with singing and dancing, vocal rhythms and harmonies with a stirring shuffling march and Adumu dancing. Electrifying stuff.
The safaris were of varied length and the guides had excellent knowledge. We saw some breath-taking sights, as you might expect, but what really made the visit special was the whispered and fascinating background information from our guides as we watched the animals in their habitats.
Food at Eagle View was particularly excellent. Wherever we are, we eat out regularly and we eat well, so our idea of "excellent" represents a very high standard and the superb, imaginative and delightfully presented meals were an unexpected treat.
We all agreed - this was an unconditionally successful and memorable visit to Kenya.
Saw the big 5
Showed up to Africa hoping to see the big 5. My guide managed to show me the big 5, including the leopard which is apparently quite elusive. Nothing more I can ask for really.

Kenya Up Close & Personal
My safari with Mwema Africa Safaris started with a prompt, on time pick up at my hotel in Nairobi. Charles & Hassan who was my driver were very friendly & I felt immediately at home with them. Even though I was the only passenger, I was treated excellently. Both Hassan & I toured Amboseli, West & East Tsavo National Parks for 6 days. The accomodation was great, I especially enjoyed the tent accomodation at the Kobi Camp in Amboseli as it was quite different. My tent faced directly into the park. Both lodges in both Tsavo parks were first class, with my room looking over the waterholes where I could watch the animals. What an experience to see the huge elephants etc., coming in to drink. Hassan was very knowledgable both in his descriptions of the wildlife, the parks & best places to see the wildlife. I must say the whole Kenya experience with Mwema Africa Safaris was great & I would not hesitate in joining them when next I go to Kenya.
An excellent adventure...
I wish to thank Mwema Africa Safaris director Mr. Charles Muema for his hospitality, he helped us a great deal to plan our trip, his correspondence and details were up to standard. i really appreciated
Our 4 days trip to Mombasa was a real adventure and we really had a lot of fun with my daughter and would wish to visit once more
I would recommend the tour operator to any traveler wishing to travel within East Africa
Best Regards

First Class Experience!!!
Mwema Africa Safari was my first Safari experience. It more than exceeded my expectations. This company was very accommodating and professional. They were available to assist with travel arrangements and even picked me up from my hotel! The owner personally greeted me at the begining of the journey which gave a good first impression. From there, the experience got better and better. The guide was knowledgable and friendly, as he not only was an excellent driver able to navigate the terrain, but also able to explain everything that we saw. Looking forward to doing it again. Definitley "2 thumbs up"!!
