Great trip. Great team
Wowed!! I happened to use Orange adventures for a 4 days Mombasa trip during my December vacation. Elisha leading the tour was outstanding and pace of the tour was balanced. I got a chance to meet new friends being a sole traveler. Well planned tour with a boat ride to see the dolphins which was a life time experience. Watching the sunset was magical. Evening dinner was amazing with drinks and team building. Thank to Orange Andventures and the entire team for making our trip a success.
Looking forward to traveling with you again

It was the great time. Our guide was very professional and friendly. He knows everything about anima
It was the great time with Wildebeest safari. I’ve been in Mara and Amboseli with them. Our guide was very professional and friendly. He knows everything about animais and local life. He joked and told funny stories. Safari arranging was perfect. Everything on time and was made with real care about tourists. They do more then their job need. For sure if I back to Kenya i will go again to safari with Wildebeest.
Thanks guys for everything. Great thanks and hi to our guide Ibrahim.
He does great job.

Friendly, knowledgeable professional with wonderful hospitality.
When we first found out we were headed to Kenya, I immediately knew that I wanted to take a safari and get to experience as much of the wildlife as I could. I spoke to my fellow travelers and my friend who is wonderful at planning immediately started calling and emailing around to find the best deal within our budget and that met our criteria. She recalls a lot of companies not replying and when they did, it was inconsistent material. Matthew was never inconsistent. He was tentative, understanding of our inquiries and provided many options for our 4 - 8 day safari. At the end we decided that 6 would be the best and that we wanted to remain in Kenya instead of the extras of boarding into Tanzania. Matthew was with in constant communication with us before arriving in Nairobi, met us in our desired location prior to the safari and meet us on time at our pick up destination. He was courteous, knowledgeable and very professional through out the entire experience. He was able to answer all of our crazy questions on bird varieties and was full of animal facts. Even though we disagreed on if it was a hippo or a crocodile swimming in one of our videos, he was a great guide and host, and the experience was truly out of the world, thanks to Matthew and our driver.
When booking your accommodation be sure to look at the websites of the locations you're provided. Initially we had chosen the base package of rustic camping for our safari, but after some research on the locations, we decided to upgrade to the second tier. Our lodging was what you'd expect for a safari, rural environment. They were operating on generators, the staff were friendly locals, and food was very consistent, comfort food. Based on our research I was very happy with our decision to move up a tier. Our lodging was typically located 1 KM away from the gates of each park and it was very nice to be on the "outskirts" as it made the evening much more cozy and enjoyable.
Overall my experience was a 9.5/10 - my only reservation would be the long travel time from one location to the next. if you have the luxury to upgrade to fly into the locations that would be the best case scenario, but it was not in my budget so we endured the long rides

Best Safari experience.
For our anniversary my husband and I had the best safari experience ever in Kenya. We contacted Ali to help with the arrangements for our trip, and they proved to be both professional and reliable. They were super helpful, helping to narrow down our options and selecting romantic lodges for us. Every staff including our tour guide were exceptional in service delivery. My personal best was the Masai Mara, but my husband seems to favor the Amboseli. Every aspect of a bundle of fun, we even got to see monkeys that snatched and garnished off our drinks. We saw a herd of elephants trekking right across our camp. There were also rides where we could see lions literally few feet away from our vehicles, completely magical. The weather during the day was great, but a little cold during the night. Otherwise, it was very nice.

Delightful safari in Kenya and Tanzania!
Last summer we took our first safari and experienced Maasai Mara culture up close. Our guide Michael in Kenya went above and beyond. We continued to Tanzania where we met our driver Philip for a tour of Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. Philip made sure we had a great time and showed us lots of many different animals. On our last day we returned to Nairobi where we met Paul. He gave us an excellent tour of the city including Bomas of Kenya and Karen Blixen Museum. We can highly recommend this company & this safari tour.

Exceptional!!
Carlson was so nice since we first contacted him. He gave us all the information we needed to choose a company.
We got picked up from the airport and taken to the complimentary hotel by Batho, one of the directors.
Issa, our guide, was excellent at his job. So enthusiastic and eager to spot animals in every park.
Meshak was really nice and polite, and cooked great!
It was an incredible experience and we didn't have to worry about anything since Wakanda Tours had it all figured out.
10/10 !!!!!!!!

Excellent!!!
Since we contacted them they have always been very attentive, responding to all our inquiries. Our flight took 5 hours, and Bato waited for us at the airport all that time. We chose a Camping option for 5 nights. As soon as we got to the city, Carlson told us that we would stay two nights in cabins at no additional cost! Always aware of us and our comforts, such as the Guide that spoke different languages including Spanish.
Issa, our guide was excellent at all times, very patient, attentive and enthusiastic to show us everything.
I 100% recommend Wakanda Tours.

Best Vacation Ever
I'm so glad we went with ToKenya.com The entire trip was well arranged. Our safari was great as was the food and lodges. The room were spacious and beds very comfortable. The hospitality was above and beyond. We couldn’t ask for nicer people. We met many fun folks along the way. We were a little skeptical about visiting tribal village, we had heard it was all staged. We truly enjoyed meeting the villagers. They we were so lovely to talk to, welcoming and warm. We were immediately set at ease. Its hard to find fault when the trip was so organized. Especially how all the different part including picnic lunches all came together. This was by far the best vacation we’ve ever taken.

Amazing experience - Full of wonderful surprises
The safari was a great experience. The lodge Ker&D advised us was perfect for what we looking for: comfy and beautiful place. The crew was very nice and welcoming. The experience of the Safari with the drives and all the animals we got to see from a very close distance took our trip in South Africa to another Level! Thanks a lot for everything!!

Excellent Safari. Exceeded my expectations!
The communications prior to booking, the booking, and information given after the booking but before the trip were excellent. The only thing I would suggest is that the itinerary start times take into account the time of year. When daylight is longer, the itinerary should reflect what the guide has in mind for start times. The start time should be communicated each time before parting ways.
The service was also very good and the lodges also exceeded what I expected.
I was very glad I chose Wildebeest Safaris. The guide worked very hard to find all the animals we wanted to see. He was always listening to the radio to be sure that if another guide saw one of the "big 5" , he would do everything he could to get us there in time. He went out of his way to ensure we were happy. After the missed communication for the first drive, he was always verifying the time we were to meet next. And he was always on time!
Definitely 5 stars!
