The Best Safari Experience We Could Have Asked For!
I feel incredibly lucky to have found Earthwings for our Kenya safari! The entire team was professional, reliable, and incredibly patient, answering all my questions and making the whole planning process so smooth and stress-free.
And we couldn't have asked for better guides than Martin and Morgan! Their ability to spot wildlife and their driving skills were absolutely amazing. They shared so much fascinating knowledge about the animals and their lives, making every game drive an unforgettable experience.
What made this trip truly special, though, was the people. Even though we only spent a short time together, Martin and Morgan felt more like friends than guides by the end of our journey.
A huge thank you to the entire Earthwings team, especially Martin and Morgan, for making our Kenya adventure so memorable! ❤️

John is a highly professional guide who always puts his guests’ needs first.
We are very glad that we chose Earthwings as our travel agency for this trip. From the very beginning, they communicated closely with us and responded to our messages very quickly. Whenever we had any questions or concerns, they were always willing to help and find solutions for us.
For example, when our luggage was delayed during our journey, they continued to follow up and even helped arrange for our luggage to be delivered from the airport to us after it finally arrived. We really appreciated their thoughtful and attentive service.
During our 9-day, 8-night safari, we would also like to express our sincere thanks to John for being our guide. He helped us see so many amazing and adorable animals and made the whole safari experience truly memorable.
While looking for animals, John always paid attention to keeping an appropriate distance and finding the best viewing and photography angles. He made sure that we could enjoy watching and photographing the animals without disturbing them.
Thanks to Earthwings and John, we have made so many wonderful memories during this trip. We truly appreciate their excellent service and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

An unforgettable safari with an exceptional guide Reuben
We had a wonderful experience with Earthwings from the planning stage to the end of our safari.
Before our trip, Martin was extremely patient, friendly and responsive. We exchanged many emails while arranging the details, and he always replied quickly and made communication very easy.
Our safari in Kenya was fantastic. Everything went smoothly, and all the lodges and camps selected by Earthwings were comfortable and enjoyable.
A very special thank you to our driver-guide, Reuben, who made our safari truly unforgettable. He is an incredibly professional and experienced guide. His eyesight is amazing—it sometimes felt like he had the eyes of an eagle, spotting animals far away before any of us could see them!
Even more impressive was his ability to anticipate animal behavior. He often knew where the animals were going next and took us to the right place in advance, allowing us to wait for the perfect moment and get some incredible views and photos. Throughout the trip, the four of us kept saying how impressed we were by his knowledge and professionalism.
Thanks to Reuben, we witnessed so many memorable wildlife moments that we will never forget.
A huge thank you to Reuben, Martin, Yvonne and Brenda, who warmly welcomed us at the airport, and the whole Earthwings team for making our Kenya safari such an amazing experience. We truly enjoyed every part of the trip and would happily recommend Earthwings to anyone planning a safari in Kenya!

Choose Earthwings, and be sure to ask for John Macharia.
We had a fantastic 5-day tour with Earthwings Tours, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Martin, the owner, was incredibly reliable from the very beginning—he responded promptly, arranged all the itinerary and contract details properly, and made the whole communication process smooth and stress-free.
A special shout-out to our guide, John Macharia. He is a highly experienced and senior guide, and thanks to him we saw an incredible amount of wildlife. He was warm, hardworking, and responsible, always ready and waiting for us on time each morning. Even when the itinerary was long and tiring, he never slacked off. We had many transfers, often driving 5–6 hours a day, but John drove steadily and safely the whole time, and he always responded enthusiastically to all our questions and requests.
John is a great driver, a great guide, and also a wonderful photographer. We had a truly wonderful time with him. I highly recommend Earthwings—and be sure to ask for John Macharia!

We can defiantly recommend this agency if you want to get a great safari experience 🦓🦒🦁

Awesome Experience!
The Safari with “Earthwings” was awesome! It was such a great experience. It could not be any better. The booking process was effortless. Any questions were answered really fast. We saw the tour schedule and asked if they could adjust the tour, which did also work. The safari itself was perfect. Our tour guide John was awesome! He had a lot of knowledge about the wildlife. We saw a lot of animals and got a lot to know about the wildlife in Kenia. The lodges were also so good! Great places, with great food, we good also see animals while we were eating, the rooms were really nice. I can not say any bad thing. I can definitely recommend to book via Earthwings.

Martin is the Man!
Martin did an excellent job in organizing our 11-day Kenya safari tour. He organised the airport pickup which was not on the contract for free. He also tried his best to spot the animals in each park. Highly recommend Earthwings!

A seamless safari exceeding expectations with professional service and a knowledgeable guide！
Our safari with Earthwings was truly unforgettable. We explored Samburu, Aberdare, Nakuru, Maasai Mara, and Naivasha, and every destination was spectacular.
From the very beginning, Earthwings stood out for its prompt responses and accurate understanding during our inquiries. Planning a safari can be time-consuming, but their professionalism made the process smooth. Our itinerary was quite unique, deviating from standard routes, and we included locations not typically visited by tourists. Throughout this process, Simon, the tour manager, was incredibly patient. He worked closely with us to design the route, gathered necessary information, and liaised with park rangers, ultimately crafting a perfect plan that fulfilled our specific wishes. We are extremely grateful for his dedication.
We must also extend our big thanks to our outstanding guide, Steve, who was an integral part of making this trip so memorable. He was professional, patient, and reliable, possessing an in-depth knowledge of Kenya's national parks and their diverse flora and fauna. If you share a passion for birdwatching, Steve will not disappoint. We were lucky to have him and would happily go on safari with him again.
The condition of our vehicle, the accommodations, and the meals throughout the journey were all excellent. There was nothing to fault. In fact, even at a remote lodge we stayed at due to hiking, Earthwings arranged meals that exceeded our expectations, though we regretfully didn't have enough time to fully enjoy them.
All in all, the entire Earthwings team provided us with an exceptional experience. We made a wise choice and recommend them highly to anyone looking for a safari in Kenya!

Great team that goes above and beyond to satisfy their customers
We had an amazing experience with Earth Wings team for our first visit to kenya. We visited Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara over 7 days and we were well taken care of.
From the start of getting to know the details before choosing a company, Earth Wings team was professional and very involved. They were patient in tailoring our itinerary making sure all aspects were well taken care of. Hotels were carefully thought through and booked on time and was smooth during the journey too.
The tyeam was super helpful in giving us the confidence that they are doing their absolute best to make our experience was great. Very responsive despite their busy schedule. Best part was they were flexible and adapted to situations well to make sure what they deliver is what they promised and agreed.
Our guide was super professional, patient and went out of his way to deliver the last mile. Well experienced and knows animals very well.
I strongly recommend Earth Wings to anyone who is planning to go on Safari in Kenya. They give you value for money and make sure you are well taken care of. Really good people to work with!

Beautiful Kenya
We had an amazing journey together with EarthWings!
We visited several parks and lakes. We enjoyed the views and smells of the savannah, met many animals and birds. Many companies sent us their offers, but we immediately liked the design of the offer from EarthWings more. Everything is colorful and informative: the route on the map, the lodges, what is included, the timing by day, everything with photos. The response was quick. Martin promptly and fully answered all our questions and took into account our wishes. I was always in touch. We had no experience of tourist trips to Africa, there was some excitement, but everything went great. Our driver-guide was Ruben, friendly, funny and loving of animals. An excellent professional driver. We raced faster than anyone else to see the most interesting things.
We spent a lot of time in parks and watching the animals. After a busy day, we had a great rest in the colorful and cozy lodges. Everything is clean, safe, and well-fed.
We are glad that we entrusted our vacation to EarthWings!
