Great experience
We had a great trip with Wildside Kenya Safaris. The guide George was very knowledgeable and you noticed he new the park very very well. Apart from that he's a very skillful driver. Johnson is a great guy and very happy to accomodate for different itineraries and customize any itinerary you may have found on their website.

Incredible experience, perfect service
I spent one of my best holidays in Kenya last year. Wildside Kenya Safaris help me to rent a 4x4 and everything I need for camping. They offer me a perfect service and we arrange everything in one day. The workers of the company, specially Johnson, help us with everything to prepare our trip. Also, when we went on the road, we had his number to call him with any problem we had. For me and my wife was an incredible experience. I recommend this company, with the best local workers and service. A dream come true.

I never thought my trip to Kenya would be so incredible until I met Wildside
Johnson and Wildside Kenya Safaris made my time in Kenya unforgettable.
First, Johnson helped me with a fantastic safari, then I spent 2 months living with him and his family and touring various eco-tourist and agricultural-tourism sites and events across Western Kenya. Johnson is a loving and caring host and businessman. You are sure to have an incredible experience - whatever you end up doing in Kenya. He is well connected and ensures top-quality experience and care. I would recommend Wildside to anyone wanting a local, culture-based tourist experience. I experienced and learned more in 2 months with hime and his family than anyone I could have imagined.
Thank you again Johnson.

Exceptional
I am a seasoned Traveller and have used other travel agencies in the past but my experience with Wildside Kenya Tours was exceptional. The attention to detail, willingness to go above and beyond regular customer service made this Tour Operator stand out for me.

Wildside Kenya Safaris cannot be trusted
Having had the same excellent safari driver/guide for many years through a company that has ceased trading, we were anxious to retain him for another holiday. With our approval, he booked us with Wildside Kenya Safaris for a week in the Maasai Mara in early April. We paid the deposit and it was agreed we could pay the balance upon arrival at Nairobi airport. We duly handed USD4,048 to the proprietor of Wildside. We were spending the week at the same lodge and, when we were due to leave, were informed that the lodge had not been paid by Wildside. Our safari driver/guide was visibly shaken and upset - he was in no position to pay it himself. Both he and the lodge staff tried persistently to contact the proprietor of Wildside by 'phone without success. There was either no answer or the 'phone was turned off. There was no alternative to our driver/guide asking us to pay the lodge. We paid USD9,018 by card. We then realised that our driver/guide had also not been paid for his services and expenses for the trip. This was devastating for us all. All the money we had paid to Wildside Kenya Safaris had been retained illegally by the proprietor. We now need to investigate and find out what action we can take from the UK to get our money back. We are frankly disgusted and appalled by the behaviour of the proprietor of Wildside.
