Our tour guides were top notch, extremely knowledgeable, and seriously so much fun to hang out with!
Our group was in Africa for 2 weeks. Matt helped organize our guides where we had no hiccups at all. We were picked up and taken care of from the very beginning, to the very end. We had long drives to get from one place to the other, but we had some really fun stops along the way to break up our hours in the car. I thought we were doing safaris most of the time, but we did village experiences, hot air balloon rides, an equator stop, gorilla trekking, chimpanzee trekking, orphanage and school experiences, and incredible talks in the vehicles! Our guides were with us every step of the way, and were so much fun to get to know! I was told by so many of my friends, to be prepared to sit and be bored. That was NEVER the case with us. Our guides were entertaining and laughing with us as, and they were just as excited to see the animals as we were, so they would drive with passion to get us the best view point for our pictures as possible! It was better than I ever imagined (and I had imagined amazing things)!!! I told my friends that I don't think I could go back to do another safari trip, because I don't know how you could top this one. Every place we stayed was just better than the last. It was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the people were so kind everywhere we went! I couldn't say better things about Tapestry of Africa Tours and Safaris! If you are planning a trip, this is your place!!!

Tapestry of Africa will take care of you!
We had an absolutely incredible experience from beginning to end! From the moment we were picked up in Kenya until our final drop-off after Uganda, everything was handled so smoothly and thoughtfully.
Our trip took us through Kenya and Tanzania on safari, then to Zanzibar, and finally into Uganda for gorilla and chimp trekking—and every part of the journey was amazing. The guides were knowledgeable, kind, fun, patient, and genuinely cared about making sure we had the best possible experience. We saw more wildlife than we ever could have imagined, had incredible activities and experiences along the way, stayed in beautiful places, and always felt well taken care of.
What impressed me most was how seamless everything felt, especially with so many moving pieces, border crossings, flights, transfers, and different parts of the itinerary. There was always someone there when we needed them and everything flowed beautifully.
This was truly a trip of a lifetime for our group. Kenya, Tanzania, Zanzibar, and Uganda were each so different, and we loved every single part of it. I would absolutely recommend this team to anyone looking for an unforgettable East Africa experience. We came home with so many incredible memories and are already talking about how much we miss Africa!

Very accommodating.
I am very forgetful and left my backpack with my passport. The guide returned to the location where I had left it. I was so grateful. He did not hesitate to make sure that we did our best to retrieve my backpack. The guides really communicated with each other about where to go to find the best experience for encountering the animals in wild. Overall the best experience of a Safari I have ever been on. I fell in love with Uganda and its people. The guides made sure we had what we wanted.

Professional, organized, and attentive, making our Safari truly unforgettable.
Our Africa trip was an unforgettable experience, from the excitement of seeing incredible wildlife up close to the beautiful scenery, well-organized itinerary, and wonderful accommodations. Above all, we gained a deeper understanding and appreciation of wildlife, the local cultures and people. ***One of the highlights was building close relationships with everyone in our group, making the journey even more special and memorable.

Tapestry is competent, caring, talented and reliable in planning and executing the perfect safari.
Tapestry of Africa, though being a relatively new tour company, has assembled a very talented and caring team of safari tour guides and administrative staff. We felt very safe, well informed, and comfortable throughout our safari. Their ability to find the animals, immerse you in the local culture and foster relationships with your fellow travelers and Tapestry staff was unlike anything my wife and I have ever experienced in our all of our travels. Accommodations were excellent and the Tapestry Team made us feel at home in every way. Pricing was very reasonable and included funding for local ministries that support human service needs, especially dental services for those who otherwise don't have such services available to them. During the entire adventure, we felt well cared for by a reliable and caring Tapestry team. We give them 5 stars in every category and strongly recommend them for your African adventure!

Africa beyond our wildest dreams
We just returned from an amazing trip with Tapestry Of Africa on an 11 day safari through Kenya and then flying into Zimbabwe to view Victoria Falls, and onto Botswana for an incredible river safari. Matt Jensen, the owner of Tapestry Of Africa accompanied us on the first part of our journey and made the experience so personal and inviting. Our accommodations were top notch and our guides were phenomenal. We stayed at both lodges and tent camps though my husband and I did prefer the tent camp experience. Many of our camps had visible watering holes where animals would come in throughout the day and evening for viewing. Each park we went to was a different experience and the trip was planned down to every detail. I cannot say enough about the seamlessness of this trip. This company really cares and they have a wonderful Philanthropy attached to the company. Be assured, however, you plan your trip into Africa you will be taken care of every step along the way with Tapestry Of Africa.

Highest level of service and attention to detail in the industry period.
I have traveled with many tour companies and none have come close to matching the experience I had with Tapestry of Africa. Almost immediate response to every question. 5 star support through the entire trip. All of the staff from Mat Jenkins the owner to the drivers and office staff strive for excellence. I did extensive research trying to pick a tour company for my first safari and I don’t believe I could have found a better option. The accommodations and safari vehicles were all superb. If you are trying to find a safari company to travel with you will never do better and will be hard to match.

He is professional, caring, and knowledgeable.
Excellent safari itinerary. Balloon ride in Maasai Mara was magical. We loved the camps which were truly luxurious, unique, and matching the environment. They had a different feeling with personalized attention by staff in a smaller area that you don't get at a large lodge. Ngorongoro was unique but all parks were great with different flavors and landscape. I only had one insect bite during 12 days which is much less than anywhere else I travel although it was during the dry season.

A truly unforgettable journey through Kenya and Tanzania
We recently had the pleasure of travelling to Kenya and Tanzania with Tapestry of Africa, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience.
From start to finish, the whole trip was very professionally organised, with everything running smoothly and according to plan. The guides and drivers were excellent — not only highly knowledgeable and professional, but also genuinely friendly, kind and pleasant people who made our experience even more enjoyable.
The accommodations throughout the trip were wonderful, with beautiful locations, great service and a level of comfort that made each stay special.
We were truly impressed by the attention to detail and the care that went into organising our safari. It was an unforgettable experience, and we would happily recommend Tapestry of Africa to anyone looking to explore Kenya and Tanzania.
Thank you to the whole team for helping make our trip so memorable! 🐘🦁🌍

Great safari experience whilst contributing to the healthcare of locals
Title : Kenya Safari and Beach
A trip of a lifetime with a fabulous local team. Masai Mara for 3 days with morning and evening game drives- great sightings of lions, elephants , wildebeest, zebras, hippos, crocodiles , girrafes , hyena and plenty more … we were lucky to see the “ 3 cheetah brothers” with our fabulous drivers Masha and Mbuthia. They were so knowledgeable and gave us advice when our plan needed to be rejigged. So helpful and nothing was ever a problem. We visited Lake Navaisha and a very long drive to Amboseli where we got to see herds of elephants , more of the Big 5 and a cheetah up close.
Accommodation was good - needed to be mindful of the resident monkeys and baboons. The hotel buffets were amazing . Excellent quality of western, indian and kenyan dishes available. Chefs were also cater to specific dietary needs and allergies .Our safari experience was topped by a hot air balloon ride and champagne breakfast in the savannah.
We ended our holiday with a bit of luxury in Diani beach in Mombasa- beautiful white sands and an all inclusive relaxing experience.
