perfect
5/5

Excellent value for money, good hotels and camps offered (the ones at Masai Mara and Serengeti are excellent). Drivers always looking for the best opportunities to spot animals and with safe driving. Susan, always available and ready to answer both during the organization of the trip and once you arrive in Kenya, an added value.

Perfect safari for what we wanted
5/5

This safari was exactly what we hoped it would be- to see as many things and places as possible with down to earth accommodations on a budget (as we’re a family of 8).

Major pros & highlights:

The animals. We saw so much! And David was always willing to stop for even the smallest of birds.

The food, especially at the Lake Naivasha accommodations (Apex Leisure).

David knows how to get you in the perfect spot for the best photos and experiences. We felt like we always had the best view!!

The final stop at Manjaro tented camp had the friendliest hospitality. Extra props to Jonathan for always being available.

Timeliness- David was always ready on time.

Susan is quick to reply to our emails which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was ultimately the reason we went with this company.


Cons:

There were some miscommunications with the cost of the extra experiences. I’m not sure where the problem landed- us, guide or vendor but it happened twice. I’d recommend making sure it’s VERY clear and agreed on by everyone prior to starting. It’d be nice if you knew the prices prior to the trip.

While petty, the pillow situation was tough- if you’re pillow picky, I’d recommend bringing a small one just in case.

The time in the car driving from one location to another can be quite long (7+ hours) so be prepared. I’m not sure there is another way to see so much but if you have smaller kids or don’t enjoy very long road trips, consider few parks.


Overall, we would do this again! Thank you!!

5/5

We planned tour spots and discussed with them. They helped plan datewise and finalised a plan. Booked hotels for us and vehicles for travel and safari (game). The actual tour was fantastic. Except few issues which are always there. They solved them in professional way.
In shirt, if you go through Tropical wild expeditions, u r in safe hands. 🤩👍

Safari of a Lifetime
5/5

Tropical Wild Expeditions provided a personalised tour tour to Samburu with a highly experienced expert driver, David. He succeeded in finding lions (at a kill), a cheetah (with three cubs) and, best of all, a leopard during the 4 day, 3 night tour. These exceptional sightings were made more memorable by the dramatic hilly scenery and accommodation at Sopa Lodge which was excellent in every way. We felt the tour was very good value for money and our driver was very competent, experienced and polite.

Thank you TWE for making my dream for an African safari come true. Big thanks to guide David for helping our group to spot Leopard and black Rhino in Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara.

I highly recommend booking with Tropical Wild Expeditions.

Try it and u wont regret
5/5

We booked our safari a year ago. Susan has been very responsive to our AtoZ questions and the price she quoted is one of the very affordable ones.

The gamedrive guide Stanley is humorous and patient with our requests especiaaly answering the nature call amisdt gamedriving. He went al out to make sure we had the best views of all wildlife sightings.

Overalll, a thumb up for both of them

Helpful, attentive and reactive!

I went on a 6-day safari with Tropical Wild Expeditions by sharing the places I wanted to visit: they took everything into account to offer me a safari within my budget and of good quality, with very decent accommodation. I'd definitely recommend them!
