Really good safari
Great value for money. Mountain warriors organized accommodation, meals, transport and guides for a safari and tour of hot springs and materuni waterfall.
Our guide, kefas, for the safari was fantastic at finding the animals. We managed to see all of the big 5! And he provided interesting commentary on their habitats and habits.
Several of the tour companies will combine tourists to maximise the number in the car (up to 6) and minimise the number of cars required. This was fine for us, because we got to travel with a few different groups of people for different parts of the trip.
I would recommend a 3, 4 or 5 day safari. We managed to see all of the big animals in the 3 days of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, but travelling through the Tarangire NP allowed us to see so many more elephants, and Materuni Lake was a different landscape (although the animals were harder to find compared to the Serengeti which was not ideal).

Amazing Safari and Service
I had an incredible experience with Ekarua Wild Safaris! From start to finish, the team was knowledgeable and passionate about wildlife. The safari guides were friendly and made sure we got the best time while ensuring our comfort. The overall organization of the trip was great!
Authentic and memorable safari experience. Our trip was thoughtfully arranged. I highly recommend Ekarua Wild Safaris to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure in the wild.

The best operator
Our group of 12 had a wonderful 6 days safari with guides Danty and Benar. Suzan always quick to answer our emails and Whatsapp. Good accomodations and we loved the meals at Wild Nest Camp in Maasai Mara.
I highly recommend booking with Tropical Wild Expeditions.

Efficient and communicated well, ensuring our trip ran smoothly
I joined a fantastic safari in the Mara with David Mukami as my guide. He was attentive and knowledgeable, happily sharing fascinating facts about the animals we saw and always willing to answer questions.
David had an excellent connection with other safari guides and coordinated with them to ensure I was able to see as much wildlife as possible, including some incredible live action such as a cheetah hunt and lions and lionesses enjoying a meal. We also saw chubby hippos and snappy crocodiles, among many other animals.
David’s cheerful and funny nature made the long safari light-hearted and very enjoyable.
The tour operator David works for was also efficient and communicated well, ensuring our trip ran smoothly from the initial booking in London to being on site at the wonderful Jambo Mara Lodge. Everything was well thought out, from the catering at our accommodation—which was absolutely delicious—to the tasty packed lunches provided for our days out in the wild.
I would highly recommend David and his team for future safari tours.

They are transparent and deliver expertly customized safari experiences with seamless organization
Our experience with Blends of Africa was incredible! They are local based tour operators and their organization and planning is what stood out to us. They were the only one who gave a detailed price breakdown and were completely transparent with all the costs. They worked around our wishes with the places we wanted to visit and customized the tour within our budget, so we decided booking with them. Mary is super friendly and was always available and communicative, helped us with all our questions before the trip and created a beautiful detailed timeline on an app so we could follow every step of the journey. During our private safari we saw all the animals we wanted to see and had a great time with the guides through Nairobi, Maasai Mara, Serengeti, Ndutu and Ngorongoro. An unforgettable adventure, a full wilderness experience and I can only recommend to book their service!!!

AMAZING! An unforgettable experience
We had an absolutely incredible safari experience! Everything was perfectly organized, and our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about wildlife. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five and so many other amazing animals up close.
The game drives were unforgettable, the accommodations were comfortable, the food was excellent, and the hospitality was outstanding. It truly was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure — we can’t recommend it enough!

Flexible and creative
This was a last-minute booking in the end, that prelude a fair bit of research on available option. In the end, the personal and flexible touch by Anastasia gave me the confidence to go with the company.
Our guide, Francis was a no-nonsense safari guide who not only impressed by his knowledge base once in the Plains of Masai mara but also by his service and customer safety first attitude. We encountered some amazing experiences, such a very close encounter with a 4 meter python *everyone sees lions, coupled with a male lion at 10 meters from. Francis was top notch guide with the right kind of approach that made the 4-day tour what it was, a once in a lifetime experience. Thank you team and can truly highly recommend the company.
