Amazing trip!
We had an incredible trip! We started in Rwanda and did a trek to see gorillas. Hamza and Patrick really came through for us, especially when we had to ask them for a last minute ride to the airport after a long day due to an airline changing one of our flights.
Then, we headed off to Tanzania for a safari tour. Noel and Emanuel were great guides who put in a lot of effort to make sure that we got to see some awesome animals in the wild. It was also great to have another Emanuel there taking photos and capturing memories so that we could enjoy the moment.
And a huge shout out to Losim for coordinating everything, especially making sure that we could enjoy our trip fully after airlines made last minute flight changes on us.

Excellent
We did a 4-day trek up Mt Meru and a 6-day mid-range safari to the Serengeti & Ngorongoro. We chose Kiwoito because we wanted to go with a locally owned operator to ensure our tourist dollars most benefit the local community. Kiwoito was a great choice. The whole trip was phenomenal.
The trek was tough -- I wouldn't have made the summit if not for the encouragement of our wonderful guides, Hassan, Choda and Maca. Huge gratitude to the cook and porters who work so hard behind the scenes.
The safari portion was beyond our expectations. Thanks to our guide Lucas, we had breathtaking, very-up-close encounters with lions, rhinos, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, hippos, and more.
We've traveled a lot as a family, including a previous safari in Kenya, but this trip will definitely go down as one of our most memorable ever.

Shabibah and Raymond, THE BEST FOR UGANDA!
I had my safari with my partner with Shabibah as main guide and Raymond as driver and second guide. The experience was the best ever. Couldn't recommend them more. The experience was amazing and we laughed the whole trip (including various hours of driving between all hotels).

Memorable Making Moments
I can highly recommend Edwin Safari. Peter was our point of contact before the trip and worked with us to plan a tour we’ll never forget.
He was always available and remained patient and helpful in answering our countless questions – everything was superbly organised.
We then went on the safari tours with Robert. He was really friendly, very respectful towards the animals and provided lots of insights and information to help us understand the wildlife even better. We felt we were in excellent hands.
Due to a few traffic jams along the way, we had to make some last-minute changes to our plans, and Peter took care of everything behind the scenes so that we didn’t lose any valuable safari time.
Many thanks to the whole team at Edwin Safari for making the trip unforgettable.
Best regards
Lena and Patrick
Idris was kind, funny, organized, accommodating, and knowledgeable.
We had a wonderful experience with Legendary Wonders Travel and especially with our guide, Idris. Though we only had a short time for the trip, Idris accommodated our needs while delivering once-in-a-lifetime experiences. He was also extremely professional in following park rules and engaging with other guides. We learned a lot about history and ecology - and he always got us to a bathroom when we needed it! An amazing experience and it would be a delight to travel with Idris again.

Delightful, knowledgeable, prompt, and organized!
We had an amazing experience at Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater with Idris as our guide. He was so accommodating and made sure we arrived safely at each location and brought us to and from Arusha. We saw unforgettable wildlife including white rhinos, lions, zebra, wildebeest, hippos, and so much more. Highly recommend this wonderful company and excellent guide :)

Safari
The safari was organised perfectly and the staff couldn’t have done more for us. The communication made everything so easy. Special thanks to Derick for organising and for our tour guide Luca who was amazing. The accommodation also was great especially staying in the middle of the Serengeti.

A Safe, Unforgettable Safari Experience
The tour was absolutely amazing. Seven unforgettable days exploring Kenya’s incredible national parks. We were lucky enough to spot the Big Five on our very first day and even witness the beginning of the Great Migration.
A huge part of this incredible experience was thanks to our guide, Francis. His knowledge of the parks, the wildlife, and every route was outstanding. He always knew exactly where to go to give us the best opportunities to see the animals, and he worked hard to make sure everyone in the group had the best views and the chance to capture incredible photos.
Throughout the entire tour, I felt completely safe. Francis was professional, experienced, and always made us feel comfortable and well taken care of. His passion, dedication, and enthusiasm made this safari even more special.
Thank you, Francis, for making this an unforgettable adventure. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide!

We lived a Safari dream
From the crew: star boy (1st driver), Jafar (safari guide), Edward (our contact), Shabani Aka Lewis Hamilton (best safari driver), Kennedy, Kassim and the guides we had, to the experience we have lived everything was so nice.
We were stressed because we never booked something like this and have a contact via WhatsApp, but if you’re booking with plex you don’t need to worry, Hakuna Matata☺️
The safari was so nice, we have seen a lot of animals: giraffes, elephants, a lion, impala’s, crocodiles, hippopotamus,…
Jafar was always there to tell us a bit more about the animals, you could really feel his love for the animals and Shabani was an incredible driver who was cautious about the animals well being also. We never chased the animals, they always took care about that and that was for me a priority! We were a little sad we didn’t book a second day!
Starboy picks you up in the really early morning with a big smile. The sun is already up with him, even if it’s still dark!
The guides we had for the second day (bush walk, Masai and village tour, boat safari) were also very lovely! Special thanks to our guide for the bush walk who was so interesting to listen to, we could listen to him for hours.
Many many thanks Plex safari! We had a blast 🤩
Asante sana marafiki!

Outstanding service, incredible wildlife and unforgettable memories
We recently completed the 5-day safari with Edwin Safari, visiting Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and the Masai Mara, and it exceeded every expectation we had.
From the very beginning, Peter made the planning process effortless. He created an itinerary that was perfectly tailored to what we wanted, offered plenty of options, and was always incredibly quick to respond to any questions we had. Everything was organised seamlessly, allowing us to simply enjoy the experience.
The Sopa Lodges completely blew us away. They were stunning, with breathtaking views, fantastic facilities and consistently delicious food, including plenty of great vegetarian options. Every member of staff we met was genuinely warm, welcoming and went out of their way to make us feel at home.
The highlight of our trip, however, was our guide and driver, Amos. His knowledge of the wildlife was exceptional. Whether it was the largest predators or the smallest birds and insects, he could explain their behaviours, habitats and fascinating facts in incredible detail. His experience was obvious from the moment we entered the parks. He could spot animals from remarkable distances that we would never have noticed ourselves, and his ability to anticipate where wildlife would be made every game drive exciting.
Thanks to Amos, we were fortunate enough to see the Big Five, but what really stood out was how much effort he put into giving us the very best viewing opportunities. He always positioned the vehicle perfectly and even considered the angle of the sun and lighting to help us get the best possible photographs. It was those little details that turned an amazing safari into an unforgettable one.
This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and much of that is down to the professionalism and passion of the entire Edwin Safari team. We couldn’t recommend them more highly and will absolutely be booking with them again on our next visit to Kenya.
