Leopard Orchid are an exceptionally professional and cooperative operator delivering flawless Kenya.
Huge thanks to Leopard Orchid for an amazing safari experience in Kenya! From the initial welcome right up to our final drop-off, their service was top-notch.
We had a large group of 17 people, and the team handled all our arrangements smoothly and cooperatively. All our drivers were super helpful, highly skilled, and guided us brilliantly throughout the safari game drives. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Kenya!

Amazing safari!
We had a truly amazing safari!
Melvin helped us with the booking and everything beforehand. He was always very helpful and quick to respond and also checked in on us every day during the safari.
The trip started a little unfortunate, as there were some problems with the car and we had to wait 1.5 hours before starting the safari. Also, the binocular was missing from the car on the first day. However, apart from these issues, we had four amazing safari days and the binocular was brought on the second day. We saw lots of animals and all the lodges were very nice.
Our guide, Musa is a wonderful person and we had many great conversations with him. He made sure we saw all of the Big Five and really tried to give us the best possible experience and find as many animals as possible.
During the safari, I think it would have been nice to communicate a little more about the daily plans and whether we wanted to stop for more pictures or spend a bit more time at certain sightings. Other than that, everything was really great.
We even got to see part of the Great Migration in the northern Serengeti! It was amazing to witness, but also a little shocking to see how much some of the cars and guides stressed the animals and raced around to get the best spots. Some cars even crossed the area where the animals were running up from the river. Our guide handled the situation quite well, but I really hope the park authorities will enforce the rules and restrictions more strictly. It was wonderful to see the migration, but people should also be aware that it is a long drive to the northern Serengeti, and there may not be much wildlife to see in the area if the migration is not happening there. There can be a lot of waiting, as well as considerable stress caused by the number of vehicles and the way some drivers behave. Especially during high season, I would think twice about whether visiting the northern Serengeti is really the most ethical choice, given the number of cars and the reckless driving we witnessed.
However, this criticism is directed at the park authorities and the way the migration is managed, not at the safari company itself.
The last day was also very nice. We visited a waterfall and a coffee plantation and especially the coffee experience with the locals was amazing.
However, the absolute highlight was definitely the safari itself and especially the night we spent inside the national park and waking up to giraffes in front of our lodge.
The hotel on the last day was not quite as good, especially the restaurant, but all the other accommodations were great.
Melvin even came to visit us on our last day to check in and hear about our experience. He really took good care of us and genuinely wanted to know how everything had gone.
It is a relatively new and smaller company, so there may still be a few little things to improve. However, they are clearly very open to feedback and you can really feel that listening to their customers and continuously improving is important to them.
They are already a great and trustworthy company and I am sure that with their dedication and attitude, they will only become even bigger and better in the future.
A big thank you to Melvin for taking such good care of us and, of course, to our amazing guide Musa, who made our safari such a memorable experience!
We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari experience!

Title: Unforgettable Tanzania Safari
We booked a 6-day safari with Africa's Wild Wonders for our family reunion, and it was the best decision we have ever made. Justice was extremely patient with us and picked the best guide for our trip. Stanley (Star) was knowledgeable, knew so much about the animals, and made the whole experience extra special with his charm.
Everything was well organized, and we felt well taken care of throughout the safari. Sharing these incredible moments and seeing wildlife together as a family made the experience even more meaningful. We couldn't have asked for a better safari experience. Highly recommended!

The best you can choose in Kenya
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An unforgettable experience of a lifetime — I couldn’t recommend Tilman Safaris more! 🏔️🇰🇪
Where do I even begin? Four days hiking Mount Kenya, reaching Point Lenana at 4,985 metres, and without a doubt one of the most incredible and unforgettable experiences of my life. And so much of that is thanks to the AMAZING team at Tilman Safaris!
From the very first contact, their professionalism, availability, flexibility, and genuine willingness to help were outstanding. Even when I decided at the very last minute to switch from a private tour to a group tour, they immediately went above and beyond to find a solution for me. Everything was handled so smoothly, and I always felt that they genuinely cared about making this experience the best it could possibly be.
And then there was Daniel, our guide — what an absolute legend! I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide us through this adventure. His knowledge, patience, encouragement, positive energy, and genuine care made all the difference. He was always attentive to everyone’s needs, making sure we felt safe, supported, and motivated throughout the entire journey. I genuinely cannot thank him enough!
And I really want to highlight the incredible work of the ENTIRE team — the driver, the porters, the cooks, and everyone working behind the scenes. These are the people who make adventures like this possible, and their hard work deserves so much recognition. Carrying equipment through challenging mountain terrain, preparing delicious meals in demanding conditions, making sure everything was organised and that we were comfortable and well looked after… absolutely impressive! Their dedication, kindness, and positive spirit made the whole experience even more special.
What made this adventure truly unforgettable wasn’t just reaching the summit or witnessing the breathtaking landscapes, but also the wonderful people who made the entire journey possible. From beginning to end, I felt incredibly well taken care of, and the team’s passion for what they do was visible in every little detail.
Every single second was worth it, and I couldn’t be more grateful to Tilman Safaris, Charles, and the entire mountain crew for making this adventure so special.
If you’re considering hiking Mount Kenya, DO IT — and do it with Tilman Safaris. You’ll be in excellent hands, surrounded by people who genuinely care about what they do.
A once-in-a-lifetime experience, made unforgettable by an extraordinary team. THANK YOU! ❤️🏔️🇰🇪

An absolutely phenomenal day from start to finish! I honestly couldn’t fault a single thing. The service was exceptional, and the entire experience exceeded expectations.
A special thank you to our driver, Paul Simon, who was extremely professional, friendly and pleasant. He drove very carefully and confidently, making us feel safe and comfortable throughout the journey. He was attentive and considerate at all times.
Our safari guide, Tiamo, was equally outstanding. He was incredibly knowledgeable, accommodating and attentive, with a fantastic sense of humour that made the day even more enjoyable. His passion and knowledge really added to the whole experience.
Both Paul Simon and Tiamo went above and beyond to make the day special. Their professionalism, warmth and attention to detail made all the difference.
The safari itself was absolutely amazing and an experience I would highly recommend to anyone visiting South Africa. Excellent service, wonderful people and unforgettable memories. Five stars all the way!

Title: A Wonderful Safari Experience
Our 6-day family safari with Africa's Wild Wonders was truly an experience to remember.
We met with Justice on the first day for safari briefing and i was really glad meeting him for the first time after months of planning. He was welcoming, patient and attentive to all our needs.
Stanley our guide made our first safari in Tanzania even more special with his knowledge of wildlife, interesting stories and great sense of humour. Every day brought something new and exciting, and we enjoyed every moment of the adventure. It was a wonderful experience to share as a family, and we would happily recommend Africa's Wild Wonders to anyone visiting Tanzania!
