Wonderful Trip - After having to delay for a year due to COVID, we finally went on our safari in September 2021. It was an incredible experience. The highlights were the amazing animals, the beautiful landscapes, and the friendly and welcoming people. Our guides, Sam in Kenya, and Allen in Tanzania were both very knowledgeable and added greatly to our experience. We loved our accommodations, both the lodges and the tent camps. We added three days at the beach in Zanzibar to the end of our safari. It was a great way to relax after a busy safari. Luis was our tour designer. He was extremely helpful and communicated with us in a timely manner during the planning process.

Wonderful safari in Kenya and Tanzania! - In summer 2018, we participated in a safari where we first experienced Maasai Mara with our guide Sam and then continued to Tanzania where we met our guide Ben and our cook Osman for visiting Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. Ben and Sam made sure we had a great experience and saw many different animals and the cooking of Osman was pure luxury. The last day back in Nairobi we spent with Paul who was an excellent guide of the city. We can highly recommend this safari and hopefully come back ourselves too.

11-Day Kenya & Tanzania Safari Tour Package - We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the tour. The guides David (Kenya) and Mashaka (Tanzania) were highly professional and dependable with superb and safe driving skills. The tour was unhurried which allowed us to “soak in” the beautiful surroundings. We thrilled to see the big fives and wilderbeast migration during the tour.

This was an excellent trip from... - <p>This was an excellent trip from beginning to the end. The individual guides including Lowe, Paul Oyugi, Peter Kenya and Serevo, Benjamin Tanzania were very professional, knowledgeable and went out of their ways to make the trip a memorable one.We participated in the balloon ride which despite the price was worth it, highly recommend. I was constantly in touch with George the supervisor by WhatsApp which made the trip convenient, It included 3 days of camping, which with preparation unknown to us as first-timers, turned out quite good. George greatly helped to ease the camp stay. We saw wide array of animals and birds. The weather was excellent in August, we were able to catch a glimpse of the wildebeest migration. Overall for the price the experience was incredible, and would highly recommend. A practical advice for folks travelling from the US Verizon does not work in Kenya for internet connection and cellular service. In Nairobi, Galleria and Utamaduni are great places to shop, thanks to recommendations from Paul. Everyone in the Safari team are hard working, reliable and pleasant.</p>

Unforgettable Custom 10 Day 9 Night Safari! - Our amazing journey with Perfect Safari Tours began prior to our arrival in Africa. Beatrice in the front office was able to book a custom 10 day 9 night safari tour for us to coincide with our flight plans. In addition Beatrice was prompt and courteous in answering every question ranging from visas to packing list recommendations prior to our arrival. On arrival to the Airport everything was taken care of. I was very impressed by the tour guides provided by the company both coincidentally named Mr. Evans. They were always professional, knowledgeable, and willing to go the extra mile to ensure that we had a terrific time and every opportunity to see all of the Big Five. The tour guides that we had trained at University for 2 years learning their craft and had immense knowledge of the animals and parks. It felt as if we were driving throughout Africa with a friend. We saw all of the Big Five on our trip and had very close encounters to Lions, Leopards, Hippos, Elephants, and so many more. My wife and I had an unforgettable experience seeing so many animals in their native habitat. We are so happy we found such a great company to book through.

We highly recommend traveling with... - <p>We highly recommend traveling with Perfect Wilderness Tours and Safaris. The Manager, Mr. George Mumba in Kenya and his partner, Mr. Benjamin Ngalali in Tanzania proved to be highly organized and kept daily contact to ensure that all arrangements were executed according to plan. Where changes had to be made for reasons out of their control, they informed us ahead of time, and compensated us to the maximum ability. Furthermore, all their drivers were well informed re: the history, culture, politics, flora and fauna of the country , its tribes and customs so that as we traveled, they enriched our knowledge and experience. On a lighter note, the animals were out in full. We observed every animal possible and their amazing crossing of the Mara River. The campsites were fine - with beds or on matresses in sleeping bags. We met great traveling companions who had chosen different parts of our individualized safari. We were also informed in advance about the conditions in each campsite. <br/> The only suggestion that we want to make is that the company provide a list of what to bring such as a towel for the camp-sites where they were not provided.</p>

Good option for solo travelers - The trip is value for money and satisfactory. And the only one for shared solo travelers I found. Perfect Wilderness was excellent in communication. Betty and Everline helped me plan every little detail and answered each of my questions promptly. The accommodations were mixed but mostly basic. You get what you paid for. Be prepared for some delays, change of plans, etc. But overall, I was happy with them and will recommend them to solo travelers.

9 day Kenya/Tanzania safari tour - My friend and I just completed this safari tour starting in Nairobi, then to Masai Mara (with hot air balloon - a must!), Lake Nakuru (see the rare rhinos here), Amboseli (jumbo elephants!), Serengeti/Ngorongoro crater, ending in Arusha. Big thanks to our awesome Kenyan guides Kikitu (Masai Mara), Simon (Hot air balloon), Nathan (Nakuru/Amboseli) and our Tanzanian guide Elly and cook Freddy. Hot air balloon pilot Gena and his wife were lovely also! Everyone was super kind and polite. The accommodations were reasonable (it does get a bit cold overnight in Serengeti)... and there was always too much food! :) Overall, our first Africa/safari trip went as smooth as can be expected. Would recommend to others!

Very bad management of the trip. Do not recommend!!! - In February 2019 we've participated in an 8 day safari through Kenya and Tanzania. At first we couldn't get in touch with the agency in order to be picked up from the hotel in Nairobi. We've phoned several times the night before the start and only in the evening someone answered in order to arrange the pick-up. We didn't get any email with the itinerary from the agency, so every night the accommodation was a surprise for us. We've paid the luxury lodge option but still we stayed 3 nights out of 7 in tents. One night was so cold in Serengeti (10 degrees Celsius) that we had to move to a proper house (4 walls out of bricks and a roof over our heads) - accommodation which we paid extra 440$/night and the agency didn't want to refund. The guides were very helpful in solving the issues we encountered but they were not in charge of taking decisions like where to take us to sleep. At the beginning we we're not informed that we will be only our group in the car for all our journey - so we took with us few things in order to have enough room in the car for the rest of the potential "co-safari-ans". The cars that they provided were very dirty inside - full of heavy dust and no air conditioning. Almost all of our things - clothes and baggage were damaged because of the dust from the road which constantly got inside of the car from everywhere (especially from the rubbers that were suppose to seal the doors and windows). In the last day, the transfer from Arusha to Nairobi was arranged to be with public transportation and the luggage were supposed to be outside on the top of the car - you wouldn't want this if you see their roads. We protested and they finally arranged a private car - just for us, in order to take us back to Nairobi. We've paid around 400$/day/person but this amount is over rated compared with the conditions they offer. Also they do not inform you when is the rainy season, and still they sell this trip and you may end up sleeping in flooded tents. So, in my opinion is better to fly directly from Nairobi or Arusha into the national parks (Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, etc.) and take a car from the landing point to do a day game drive and than head back to the city. It is waaaay cheaper and not so exhausting. PS: The balloon in Masai Mara is 450$/person not 380 as they say on their presentation. No professionalism whatsoever from the Kenyan side! They didn't respond to my emails and phone calls. So a big DO NOT COMMAND!
