Amazing Company
This is my second safari, my first in Tanzania and with this company. There are several companies you can go with, but Wildebeest is a local company that gives back to the community. That is one important thing; Tanzanian companies need to flourish, not foreign companies. When I was looking for a quote, Erik responded right away. He was very patient with me the whole time, and even though mine was pretty last-minute, he still delivered on his promises. I appreciate that greatly; I was not just another customer but someone he truly wanted to give a great experience to. He worked with our budget and was competitive on his pricing compared to other companies. Other companies did not follow up with me as much as he did. Erik even reached out to me after we left Tanzania and made sure we arrived home safe.
Our driver, Jimmy, was out of this world. Truly a fun guy to be with and to show us a journey for a lifetime. Jimmy always made sure we were taken care of the whole time. I truly appreciate Jimmy, and he went above and beyond to help us find lions and leopards. They can't guarantee we will see the animals, but he surely does try his hardest. We saw many lions but sadly no leopards.
I highly advise anyone taking a safari in Tanzaia if it will be in Mikumi or the Serengetti to go with Wildebeest. You will not regret it!

He knows exactly what he was doing! Perfect!
I had a fantastic experience with Somewhere in Africa; everything was well-organized, including accommodation, food, and times. I also thought the price-quality ratio was excellent! In short, I really enjoyed it!

So great!
Very good organisation for the 9 days Kenya/Tanzania budget safari with Zanzi Africa Safaris. Thanks to Lydia for helpfull at any time.
The drivers/guides in Kenya and Tanzania were both friendly and experimented. It's a lot of kilometers, from park to park, but it's worthy.
We saw so many different animals and we had the chance to see the big five.
About accomodation, the camp in Serengeti is very basic. If you don't like camping, choose an other option.
The Simba camp is more confortable.
Anyway if you choose the budget safari you will see the same animals and not have budget guide. The food also is good.
I recommandations this organisation and this trip.

AMAZING
All was so perfectly well-structured & well-organised as a frame to have the most experiences ever
I have never experienced so professional, knowledgable and safe tour-guide and driver as Rinah Uwera Cruz
We are impressed by her energy & stamina
She drove without any mistakes for more than 30 hours on a 4 days trip to Murchison National Park & Jinja, the source of the Nile
All was in flow - in safe flow

Awesome! We felt very pampered and privileged!
Brian was always present when needed, when I fell sick he came with a doctor within 30 mins. After that he adapted our schedule, so I had one day to recover! We loved the tour and should we Return, will definately Book with him again! Big recommendation!!!

Kind people everywhere we visited
From the moment I contacted Pavillion safaris to the conclusion of my tour I knew this was an exceptional,professional, and passionate tour operator. My initial discussion with Peter was to devise an innovative tour since I have visited Kenya and Tanzania multiple times.. He suggested a unique , exciting itinerary with his exceptional knowledge of his beloved country Kenya. Our Guide Moses had the ability to go off road on this adventure and it allowed us to be just within reach of the incredible wildlife. He was as enthusiastic and have so many years of experience as a professional guide. I left my heart in Kenya as many others have and hope to return. I will only consider using Pavillion on my next adventure.

Absolutely the Best in the Business, this was our 2nd trip with Jackson, Ben + team!!
Being the 2nd trip with Topy (1st Dec 2024), this time was even better. While we saw abundant wildlife, several sightings of the “shy rhinos” was the the most exiting. This time we requested the same guide Ben (who seems to have additional set of eyes on the back of his head) who has an amazing knack for spotting animals in unusual places.
Our friends, a couple from the States had the misfortune of being airborne when the attacks on Iran began, resulting in their flight turning back to USA. Being absolutely determined to make it for the safari planned a year in advance, they immediately rebooked via alternative route to reach JRO a day late. Jackson went out of his way to ensure our friends joined us a day into our safari (we did Ngorongoro the first day) and also adjusted the programme to cover Ngorongoro on return from Serengeti.
Our friends and us (3 couples) were absolutely thrilled with the experience and sincerely thank Jackson, Ben, Andrew + team for a memorable safari.
Most likely go back to Topy for a “Migration Tour”.
