Very well organised safari, great concierge services, I would highly recommend Wayfairer
Ellie, Lorna, Aggi and fellow colleagues from Wayfairer did an outstanding job advising and organising our 10day safari to Kenya. Having never been to Africa let alone on safari, we were keen to get a company advising us, my wife has dietary requirements hence needed to make sure that GF food was available as well as that the hotels/camps knew how to cater for Coeliacs. And all advise and subsequent steer where to go turned out to be beyond our wildest dreams. We had a beautiful tented camp in Loisaba and a well managed tented stay in the Masia Mara. I didn’t needed to think about anything everything was organised upfront and we as a family had just to go along with the ride. The food was excellent! Our game drives were brilliant and in the first two days we had seen the big 5 already. What an experience, really good. Thank you for Wayfarer for taking care of us, not only with a beautiful itinerary and our own brochure, but also be there on whattap if we had any questions. A great safari al round and I wild go with Wayfairer again.

Helpful with great partners on the ground
We travelled on safari in August 2025 and had a very positive experience overall. Aggie and Ellie were a great team getting us prepared for our safari adventure in Uganda. The planning was thoughtful and responsive, and the safari delivered truly memorable wildlife encounters, excellent guiding, and experiences we will treasure forever. Wild Frontier, Wayfairer's partner guiding company in Uganda was exceptional. Our guide kept us safe, he was professional and super knowledgeable and went out of his way to accommodate our needs.
While the trip was very well organized, we had concerns from the begining about a 4 hour hike to our lodge the day before the gorilla trek which we knew would be challenging and we did not in any way want to jeopardize the trek. With Wayfairer's guidance, we dedided to go with it and then changed our minds the day before. Our guide worked diligently with his team to organize a driver instead which turned out to be a wonderful solution. The drive was in part on VERY rough roads but the scenery through the mountains was absolutely spectacular!
Overall, this was a truly rewarding and well-planned safari, and we were really satisfied with the accommodations and the support provided.

Wayfairer helped us plan a perfect first visit to South Africa.
I can't say enough good things about Wayfairer Travel and the properties we visited on our first trip to Africa and South Africa. Our travel consultant (Kate) was extremely helpful in putting the plan together through multiple Zoom conversations. She took the time to get to know us and made excellent recommendations. When we thought we would not be able to book one of the properties because they showed no availability, she was able to contact them and get us in. That would not have happened without her and Wayfairer. Our concierge (Prada) was also very helpful in planning, organizing, and getting ready for the trip. Everything was handled in advance--airport pickup, drivers between locations, transfers, domestic flights within South Africa--they took care of everything.
The budget for the entire trip was very reasonable for the quality of properties where we stayed. I'm already looking at another trip to other parts of Africa later this year and will be using Wayfairer for that trip as well. I can't recommend them enough. The trip could not have been better!

Faultless from start to finish.
Wayfairer made our Kenyan honeymoon perfect. The hotels they found for us were incredible and the safari camp in Ol Pejeta was idillic. From booking through to being away the team were always available for any questions we had and for any issues we had while away. They made the trip completely stress free for us! We would thoroughly recommend them.

Great travel planning and Excellent concierge
An unforgettable 11 day adventure in South Africa and Zimbabwe. The travel itinerary, activities and flight bookings were well planned, with good attention to detail and timing. Peach’s prompt and reassuring follow-up before, during, and after our holiday made us feel well taken care of. Tours and Transfer services by local agents were smooth and of high quality throughout the trip. Everything was well coordinated, which made our trip relaxing and enjoyable.

Excellent, informative personalized service.
I traveled to Zimbabwe to see Victoria Falls and Botswana to see elephants. It was an extraordinary trip. I was sprayed by water at Victoria Falls, a feeling and a sight I'll never forget. In Botswana I went to two safari camps. I was able to see all the animals I had dreamed of seeing, including elephants - up close and personal. The best part was sitting around the campfires at night, watching the sun go down and the stars come out.

Everything was well organized and the staff on the ground was delightful.
With the exception of a lack of information about one of my lodges, everything was well-communicated. The staff on the ground were fabulous in every way - from assisting me with transport to providing advice on things to do.

Fantastic
So many positive things to say: informed, well intended, respectful, responsive, supportive, caring, and understanding are a few. We did what I would call over to top exquisite trip. When asked what we were looking for it was hard to answer but they figured it out. So many choices decisions! Sambambili was our favorite-location, staff, knowledge, and setting with beautiful lodging.
Learned the difference between private reserves and National Parks - good to know. Saw all 5 and Wild Dogs in Sabi Sands and in Kruger no lion or rhino but all the others. My favorite was Tiyani the 4th generation leopard with Mike and the lion at night and zebras and giraffes and hyenas and rhinos and more! Thanks for the wonderful times.

Excellent - very quick to respond, delivered exactly what they said they would
Both Etienne and Prada were great. They listened to what we were looking for and set out a great itinerary. Everything was perfectly planned throughout the entire trip. We even managed to get all the specific rooms we wanted, all pick-ups were on time and they even arranged a few special events for my wifes birthday. I cant recommend them enough. it really was a special holiday
