Matt is respectful, enthusiastic and genuine and his mission is to deliver an unforgettable experience
From the very beginning, planning with Tapestry of Africa was easy and even fun. Matt and his team guided us step by step on what needed to be done ahead of time—everything from visas to packing tips—so we never felt overwhelmed. Every question we had (and there were many!) was answered quickly and thoroughly, which gave us so much peace of mind heading into a big international trip with our family.
Once we arrived, we felt safe and well cared for at every stage. Our drivers, George in Kenya and David in Tanzania, were not only skilled and reliable but also warm and personable—we still talk about them! The logistics were seamless, and we never had to worry about a single detail.
The safari itself was magical: a hot air balloon ride over the Maasai Mara, watching the Great Migration at the Mara River, full-day game drives in the Serengeti spotting everything from lion cubs to rhinos, biking through villages in Mto Wa Mbu, hiking to a waterfall, tasting coffee roasted over an open fire, and even enjoying a surprise birthday celebration for our boys. The mix of tented lodges and one luxury stay gave us a range of experiences, including an unforgettable boma dinner.
What made this trip even more meaningful is knowing that proceeds help fund dental clinics for underserved communities. With Tapestry of Africa, we not only created once-in-a-lifetime memories but also felt part of something bigger. We would absolutely plan another adventure with them.

Luxury safari specialists seamlessly crafting unforgettable wildlife adventures & honeymoon magic
We booked our safari honeymoon through Tapestry of Africa in July, and from start to finish the experience was flawless.
Even though we only reached out about 8 weeks before our trip, Matt and Hilda worked tirelessly with us to design the perfect itinerary across Kenya and Tanzania, making sure we could see and do everything on our wishlist.
From the moment we landed in Kenya from London, we were warmly greeted by three members of the Tapestry of Africa team. We didn’t expect them to be there, as our safari didn’t start until the next day, but they had all turned up just to welcome us and drop us to our airport hotel. They were friendly, inviting, and expressed how grateful they were that we had chosen Tapestry.
The safari itself was beyond anything we could have imagined. We saw 4 of the Big 5 (leopards lived up to their reputation as elusive!), along with countless other species. Some of the most memorable moments were witnessing the Great Migration from multiple angles and seeing a lion pounce on a wildebeest. The accommodations were incredible throughout, with Lake Naivasha Sopa Resort standing out as our favourite - waking up to animals roaming around the lodge was magical. A personal highlight was getting up close with giraffes and zebras, which felt like a dream. At each accommodation, we were greeted so kindly by staff congratulating us on our honeymoon, which made the experience even more special.
The hot air balloon ride was truly once in a lifetime, and the team even arranged the day we did it to give us the best possible chance of seeing the Great Migration. Their goal was clearly to give us the most complete and unforgettable experience, making the entire 8.5 days feel truly special. They surprised us with honeymoon touches along the way - beautifully decorated rooms, extra merchandise, snacks, cakes delivered at meals (complete with a sing-song!) - thoughtful details that meant the world to us.
Our drivers were exceptionally knowledgeable, going above and beyond to make sure we spotted as much wildlife as possible and that we were comfortable throughout. Food at every stop was excellent, and the staff at lodges were warm and accommodating - even preparing packed lunches for our long days out. Everything ran like clockwork: people were ready to greet us at every lodge, and timing was always seamless.
At the end of our safari, Tapestry also arranged our flight from Tanzania to Zanzibar, which worked perfectly.
We are so grateful to the whole team, especially Matt and Hilda, for staying in touch from the very first quote through to the end of our trip. Thanks to them, our honeymoon was unforgettable - a true once in a lifetime adventure.
We honestly could not recommend Tapestry of Africa more highly.
