Good organzation, smart and entertaining guides
We had an excellent time in Kenya due to the great planning of Charles and his excellent team. Hiking Mount Kenya felt quite easy with great company of the guides, especially Anthony and Lennard, great food and good adventures. Absolutely nothing to complain. The safari in Samburu was a highlight for us, not only because we were lucky to see all the big cats, but our guide Samy was able to teach us so much about the nature and the country itself.
We can only recommend going with Tilman Safari.

Kind and very flexible organization
Through Tilman we booked a hike to the summit of Mount Kenya and a safari to the Masai Mara. Tilman was a very friendly and flexible organization. They tailored the trip to our wishes, and the staff during the tours were very professional and friendly.

Tilmal Safaris is a fantastic tour company that offers exciting and memorable experiences.
Had an amazing adventure with Tilman Safaris! They took us on an exhilarating hike up Mt. Kenya, which was an absolute blast. The scenic views and thrilling experience made it truly unforgettable.
Next, we headed to Samburu National Park, where we were treated to breathtaking landscapes and incredible wildlife sightings. The guides were knowledgeable and passionate, making the experience even more enjoyable.
I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an adventure-packed experience. Their expertise and commitment to delivering exceptional tours are truly commendable. Can't wait for my next adventure with them!

A tour operator who knows how to do safari.
Even before we finally booked the safari, Charles from Tillmann Safaris was there to help and advise us.
The decision not to take the van was also the right one. We drove on roads the van could never manage. The jeep was well maintained, clean and brought us save through the Safari.
With Alvin, our tour guide, we hit the jackpot.
He's the tour guide you need for a safari like this.
You couldn't imagine a better one, patient, friendly and extremly knowledgeable.
Whether it was his instinct for the weather and fine-tuning the itinerary or the trails in the national parks, Alvin always had the right instinct.
We can't say for sure whether Alvin is truly 100% human or whether he has genes from bush animals.
In any case, he has learned a lot from the animals over the years.
He always knew where to find which animals, knew where they would cross our paths, and even when there was nothing to see, his eagle eyes were always able to spot animals and lead us to them.
Whether it was leopards hunting, herds of elephants or antelope on their way to the water, or buffalo, rhinos, or even lions chilling, Alvin showed us everything. The Big Five weren't just a title, they were truly part of the program.
The 7days „Best of …“ did not only met our expectations, it even exceeded them.
It was really a dream and Alvin made this dream become true.

Professional, knowledgeable in His job as a tour guide. Tilman is also very kind
I had my dream experience on a tour to Samburu National Park. The guide was well vast about wildlife and knows how to manoeuvre around the park, such that you get to see almost all animals. I'm still reminiscing about beautiful sunsets at the end of the tour. I am certainly saving for a another great trip to Maasai Mara with Tilman Safaris

An operator looking to show you the value of your money.
Tilman safaris is arguably one of the best tour operators if not among the best.The safari to Mt Kenya summit wouldn't have been any more wonderful.From the great guide Bernard who was very knowledgeable and had facts about the place and every information was well explained. I didn't expect to find such good food on the mountain but with Tilman safaris you get the best of what there is.The porters made sure that the luggages were handled with care and got to camp on time, showing shear determination to serve their clients.The whole team made sure I was in good condition all of the time from the onset of the journey, to the summit till the end. Kudos to Charles for the good work. I'm looking forward to another safari with Tilman Safaris.

A professional, and highly knowledgeable tour operator who delivers an unforgettable experience
We had an absolutely incredible experience with our tour guide, Alvin. From start to finish, the trip was professionally organised, informative, and unforgettable.
Alvin was not only extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife and parks, but also incredibly friendly, patient, and accommodating. His ability to spot animals—sometimes from what seemed like miles away—was amazing! Thanks to his keen eyes and deep understanding of animal behavior.
He also took the time to explain animal habits and answered all our questions.
Our game drives through Maasai Mara were seamless and awe-inspiring. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Safety was clearly a priority throughout the trip.
This safari was a dream come true, and Alvin played a huge part in making it so special. We highly recommend him and would not hesitate to book another tour with him in the future!
