The booking process was fine

I received excellent service from Wilderness on the 3 times I have used them, Their attention to detail, proactivity and rapid response to any enquiry as well as their professionalism & customer focus has always been impressive. I can highly recommend the company & staff & will certainly continue to use them in the future.

We stayed at the desert Rhino camp in April for a few days. We had a truly amazing once- in-a- lifetime experience: Great spot, fantastic accommodation & food, and above all great service & kindest team. The camp is about a couple of hours away from the main road. Our tip to spot a rhino took us a further 3 away: we had the feeling (not just the feeling obviously) to be very very far away from civilization, truly a priviledge (and adventure!). the Lots of animal to spot big and small. The scenery alone was so so gorgeous. We will never forget our days spent at the camp. Thank you so very much. We dream of coming back.

excellent service, very attentive, available and caring..

Great experience booking our family holiday! The consultant, Anneli, was very knowledgeable about the location and also helpful in suggesting options of places to stay and activities in each place. She supported us throughout to get every detail just as we wanted. Very happy with the outcome and would highly recommend Wilderness Safaris!

We just booked our second adventure in Botswana with Wilderness Safaris. Starting from the moment of contact until you are back home checking out all your amazing safari pics, well, this is the only way to go. Friendly, caring, diligent, Wilderness Safaris makes sure this is a trip of a lifetime no matter your budget. I have traveled the world, and our previous trip with Wilderness was our all time favorite. At least until the trip coming up!

Prior to the review we will say that it was the perfect safari that we had thought and planned which was executed by Wilderness Safari in an irreproachable manner. We had no surprises, what we had anticipated was exceeded in quality, service and information. It was what one could state irreproachable. Now the question is, why was it so ? We first identified 3 operators stating what we were looking for. One company never replied whilst the other delayed answering our queries. We received a reply from Wilderness safaris whom we had chosen years ago for a similar trip in Zambia. We spoke on the phone with Emma who immediately understood what we were looking for responding to all our inquiries and comments personally and diligently Our priority was genuine: small but quality tented camp in a bush environment with professional Kenyan guides and drivers so that our grand children would not just look at wildlife but understand and share the importance in maintaining this unique environment and its complexity. 1. Advise on travelling The information on Kenya entry requirements, visa, health documents, international arrival and departure were given in details and were invaluable. 2. Lodges We were astounded at the genuine, friendly and efficient service given by all Kenyan staff and managers throughout our stay. Tortillis Camp in Amboseli: Coming out of the plane, on the landing strip, Joseph greeted us with coffee, tea, etc, and then drove us to Tortillis whilst game viewing. Joseph is an exceptional guide, companion and his scope of knowledge of unbelievable depth in terms of nature, wildlife ranging from ants to the big fives. The camp was personalised and professionally run, the lady assistant manager was efficient, friendly with a good sence of humour. There are outstanding views from bar areas and the privacy element of neighbouring tents was perfect. The pool was an asset but was at time noisy. Wilderness camp in Laikipia: A charming but less sophisticated camp in a more remote and wilder environment of african bush. Great safari tents very private with a romantic element of outdoor bathroom and an outside verandah overlooking the valley. A mixture of game viewing, bathing in the river, climbing rocks, identify foot prints etc.. Ideal timing between the first and last camp where games where essentially in 4X4. Our kenyan guide/driver Steven was perfect in all senses and was able to find and follow the wild dogs pack through the bush by just following their tracks. Offbeat Mara Camp “Un sans faute” Dubai lost masai Bob a perfect gentleman, host, great sense of humour and a magician of surprises organising an unbelievable, magical and moving bush dinner starting with drinks around a camp fire that opened up to a silver set candle lid dinner table to celebrate two birthdays. A return to the magic land of Kenya and the thrilling masai traditional dancing and jumping, a stirring and emotional site into weawing between us all. Neither our grand children, our daughter Josephine, her husband nor ourselves can ever forget. Once again, our guide/driver Joseph was astonishing in his knowledge of wildlife and during bush breakfast a great story teller in through african tradition. The quality of food was remarkable in diversity, taste and presentation. The living room, bar area were extremely well decorated, confortable with the added charm of a birning fire place. The tents were again perfect and not forgetting the hot water bottle in ones bed !! The ultimate in personalised service.

The choice of various parks and lodges/camps were all wonderful. Fabulous experience. The guides were all exceptional and very knowledgeable in all the parks: Amboseli. Laikipia, Masai Mara. It was a memorable experience. Absolutely wonderful and magical.
