Amazing weekend trip to Amboseli
5/5

Two friends of mine and I went to Amboseli National park with wildebeest safaris and it was an amazing experience. Noah and his team are great and ensured that our trip was perfect. They responded immediately whenever we had any questions and Paul, our guide, was very knowledgeable, accommodating and fun. I’ll definitely book my next tour with them as well and can highly recommend them.

Incredible safari with outstanding guides, amazing animals, and beautiful lodges
5/5

We just recently returned from a 12 day safari to Kenya and Tanzania. We booked through a company based in Tanzania and our time in Kenya was contracted out to Wildebeest Safaris. We were met at the airport by Mark, who was incredibly friendly and he took us to our hotel. The next day we met Rasheed. He took us to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and the Giraffe Center. He was super patient with us as we stayed longer than most vistors. Rasheed also gave us a great recommendation for lunch that was just perfect for our group.

The next day we met Frank, our tour guide for Amboseli, Maasai Mara, and Lake Nakuru. Frank is extremely knowledgeable about the animals, was kind, courteous, and professional, as well as funny and conversational. He was also extremely patient with us, as we could not get enough pictures and videos of any of the animals that we saw. He kept in contact with other guides so that he would be able to show us as many animals as possible. He picked up quickly what our group was interested in seeing and tried to make sure we saw those animals. He knew the parks inside and out and was able to give us recommendations for picnic spots, the best locations for pictures, and restroom locations. He was conscious of the roads as well and tried to make the ride as comfortable as possible. We could not have been happier with Frank as our guide!

The lodges where we stayed were also wonderful. The staff at the locations were extremely friendly, outgoing, and courteous. We enjoyed our conversations with them and the beautiful views. The food was also very good.

Overall, we could not have been happier with our safari experience with Wildebeest Safaris. We had an absolutely amazing vacation due to their staff members. Incredible people! Thank you so much!

Responsible and professional
5/5

The agency is very professional and willing to satisfy the client’s requests.
The tour guide Filbert went the extra mile several times to ensure we were having the best experience and was very knowledgeable on fauna and flora.
Overall the experience was very professional and well planned except for one detail while booking the entrance to the Serengeti that made us loose almost half a day of the overall tour, that could have been resolved if the booking was done by head office instead of the tour guide on field. In any case, the tour guide helped adjusting the tour to ensure that we get the best experience posible and trying to recover the lost time.

An over the top experience seeing wildlife at Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara
5/5

The staff at Wildebeest was cordial and helpful during the safari planning phase. They communicated effectively...emails were always answered promptly and thoroughly. They also offered helpful advice as to Nairobi hotels and the tourist visa application process. Timothy Rashid, my guide, was a pleasant fellow and extremely knowledgeable about all topics Kenyan! He had an intimate knowledge of the terrain at Lake Nakuru and Maassai Mara which enabled us to score amazing views in each area! My visit to Kenya was an remarkable experience which I will always remember fondly!

Peter was friendly, flexible with our time together, reasonable, and helpful in making decisions.
5/5

Wildebeest were swift in communicating with us the expectations of our logistics and coordinating the best accommodations and itinerary based on our budget. They paired our group with a wonderful tour operator and guide, Peter, who was understanding of our time and what we wanted to do, and helped adjust our itinerary as needed.

Wonderful unforgettable ten days in Kenya and Tanzania arranged for us by Noah and his amazing team.
5/5

We thoroughly enjoyed our safari. Should we go on another safari in East Africa we will most definitely use Wildebeest Safaris again. Noah planned the safari with us from the start. He communicated with us all the detail. When we arrived he was at the hotel to welcome us personally. Our guides Jeff (in Kenya) and Humphrey (in Tanzania) assisted us and tried to ensure that all our expectations were met. They were flexible and so helpful. The accommodation, safari vehicles were up to standard. We were well looked after.

Straightforward planning and booking experience, excellent driver/guide
5/5

The planning and booking process was straightforward. The sales representative Noah from Wildebeest Safaris answered every single one of my questions in a timely fashion. What can be improved, perhaps, is attaching a few photos of or links to camps/hotels/vehicle at this stage of email communication.

When we arrived at the Nairobi airport it was already getting dark. So it took us a couple of sweeping around to spot our driver with a hand-written sign of our names, among a few dozen other drivers standing outside the airport. In the meantime I also tried to contact the tour operator but both cellphone numbers were unanswered. In addition, it took us some time to figure out the driver who picked us up were not the same driver/guide for the rest of safari trip. In retrospect, all of above can be improved with better email communication beforehand, in order to minimize customer apprehension. But things got sorted out quickly so it did not negatively affect our airport pick-up experience too much. The hotel at Nairobi is decent and safe, which is important as the first stop of our ten-day safari tour.

Our driver/guide Dennis is great. He is energetic, polite, knowledgeable about wild animals, local culture, road condition, and also attentive to our needs during the entire safari trip. His wife was due to deliver a baby girl two days before the end of our safari trip. So he had to make and/or receive phone calls during the trip. But this was totally understandable and it never really got in the way of our safari experience. During game drives Dennis was focused. We were able to get many well-angled shots including leopard eating its game behind thick tree branches, five cheetah brothers lounging around together, lions mating, rhinos fighting, etc. etc. There were a couple of minor vehicle issues (including a broken passenger side window at the start of our trip) but they all got taken care of within a couple of days. Overall it was a reliable vehicle that served us and the driver well for the entire trip.

The camps/hotels selected during the safari are satisfying in general. Some are better managed than others, but more so on people side rather than location/hardware side.

Everything about our trip was Magical.
5/5

Our Safari with wildebeest Safaris was PERFECT!! Noah was here to answer ALL our questions before the trip and it is an understatement to say that our trip and itinerary exceeded our expectations by far!! Hamza, our guide and driver was AMAZING! We got to see the big 5 thanks to him and he made sure we saw all the animals from up close! We went to LAKE MANYARA, SERENGETI and then Ngorongoro Crater with him and he ALWAYS has a smile on his face and is super experienced after more than 11 years as a guide!
All the hotels Noah booked for us were top-notch and we’re super picky! It was really magical from A to Z.

The second part of our trip was Zanzibar and we had booked it by ourselves on booking.com when we got there, the hotel was a Catastrophe! We hated it and couldn’t stand to stay there even for one night! ( as I said we are super picky ) I immediately called NOAH and told him what had happened! He IMMEDIATELY sent his driver Suleiman to the hotel to stay with us while he tried to book for us LAST MINUTE a an amazing resort in Zanzibar and his driver took us there that same night! This is our last day there and we never want to leave!

I DEFINITELY recommend you book with wildebeest safaris as they will accompany you every step of the way!

Thank you Noah and Thank you wildebeest safaris for the trip of a lifetime! Will definitely be back!!
