Excellent experience with knowledgable guide!
We recently visited Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli with them on a private safari for two. The vehicle (landcruiser) and guide provided were excellent. Noah is so quick to respond and was so catering to every little query I had which was what first attracted me to hiring them. Our driver and guide Eustace was very experinced and a bag of fun! Ours was a very last minute trip inspite of which they booked decent places and made sure everything was perfect. i will definetely plan my next tour to east Africa with them!

Our first safari - but not our last - amazing country, amazing widlife, fabulous guide!
We took advice from friends and booked a private tour. Wildebeest Safaris were fantastic from start to finish! We visited 4 parks, drove to each one - great way to see the real Kenya. Our guide Eustus was extremely knowledgeable about everything Kenyean and his love for his country and its wildlife was infectious. The accomodations were excellent and our vehicle had good and comfortable seats - it is worth paying the extra for a comfortable car - you spend many hours in those seats! Highly recommend this company on all levels.

Fantastic experience, Incredible value
Our safari with Wildebeest Safaris exceeded our expectations. The variety of wildlife we were able to see on our 10 Day Kenya and Tanzania trip was astounding. Our guides were professional, knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, and worked hard to solve problems when they did arise. Considering what we paid for our trip versus what other tour operators quoted, I am shocked at the high quality of our experience. They even put us into a luxury resort for Valentines Day to our surprise. There is some room for improvement with the communication. Providing some additional pre-trip information would help, and we were twice left wondering where our driver was when he had vehicle troubles. These were minor troubles in comparison to an overall fantastic trip.
Amazing Experience
We had an awesome experience with Wildebeest Safaris. I would highly recommend booking with them! Before the trip our emails were answered promptly and in detail. Everything that was promised on the itinerary was delivered-we were even upgraded on two camps. There were no hidden fees once we arrived. Everything was taken care of from transfers to and from the airports, food and lodging.
We visited Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and finished off with Zanzibar. The land in Africa is far more beautiful than we ever imagined. We were in constant awe of the landscape. Plus, the animals! We saw lions, black and white rhinos, leopards, cheetahs, hippos, thousands of zebra and wildebeest, hundreds of giraffes, plus so much more.
We found the guides to be very knowledgeable and friendly. We were never put in an environment in which we felt unsafe. They knew an extensive amount about the animals and interacted well during the game drives. They each spoke fluent English and were able to educate us on local customs, traditions and people as well as local wildlife.
I found the camps were always great and the workers very friendly. The food was always fantastic, the hospitality was amazing, and I felt very safe at each stop. With this being my first time in Africa, I will look back fondly on the places we stayed and our experiences at each tented camp and lodge.
Truly a once in a lifetime type of experience.

Great Excursion!
Wildebeest is a superb company! They came to the rescue when another person was unable to take us to the parks. The guide was kind, professional and knowledgeable. His peaceful and easy going demeanor made my party and me feel comfortable and secure. I highly recommend Wildebeest! They are fabulous at what they do.

Great Safari Experience in Tanzania
We were a group of four people travelling to Tanzanias northern circuit on a 8-day safari beginning of September 2016. From our first contact to Wildebeest on Noah was very responsive and invested effort for us planning our safari individually. In the end we had a great time visiting Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. Everything went very smoothly, the money transfer was uncomplicated, the pick up from the airport was on time, the selected lodges were awesome and the safari vehicle was in a good condition. In addition we have to highlight Hamza our guide on this trip. He was very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and made us enjoying every minute of the safari. Overall we can recommend Wildebeest to anyone who wants to visit this beautiful country. Thanks to Wildebeest and especially to our guide Hamza!

An amazing guide, well organised safari!
From the 1st contact, Noah, a sale representative from Wilderbeest Safaris, was very fast at replying and efficient. He organised a 4 days safari around Arusha following my comments and criteria.
He was always very fast at replying to any of my questions and organised everything very smoothly from start to finish! We were very impressed and highly recommend them.
We were lucky to get Max as our driver/ guide and it was perfect!
Max is a knowledgeable guide, smart, kind, funny and discreet. We really liked the whole experience and saw so many wild animals!! All of them really except the Rhino and Leopard but that was a long shot anyway.
In regards to the hotels, depending on your budget, I stoingly recomment you stay at the Neptune Ngorongoro!! This was a magical experience, amazing service, everything all inclusive, very spacious cottages with chimneys!! A real dream and I wish we stayed longer there!
The 2nd night was at a hotel inside the Ngorongoro national park, the Ngorongoro Serena Lodge and that was a very disappointing experience. If we had known we would have asked to stay at the Neptune again as it is just at the entrance of the park and on the way to Lake Manyara.
We also visited the Lake Manyara park, lots of girafes and elephants! And the Tarangire park where we saw more elephant, Girafes, lions, Zebras and all the others!!
Thanks again Wilderbeest for organising a great trip for us, we loved it and will recommend you to our friends and family!

Timely, professional & courteous full support for trully dream-come-true experience. Recommend 100%
At first it seemed impossible to us to identify, arrange and implement the plans and alternatives to our most-dreamed safari adventure in Kenya with our 13 years-old daughter from our country of residence (Brazil). I had been in South Africa (Mala Mala, Kruger Park) some 20 year ago and intended to provide something uncooked and safe as birthday present to our girl. After thorough research, checks and quotations from 05 shortlisted providers, we decided in favor of Wildbeest Safaris. Could not have been happier with our choice!!! Noah Kuti was attentive and responsive at all times during the decision-making and also after we had confirmed and partially paid the safari (given the time difference between Brazil and Kenya, I guess he has very little sleep, sounds as he works 24/7!). He was very proactive, clarified all our doubts (some of them probably not very rational, I am sure!), making suggestions and recommendations on what Reserves to visit within the available time (8 nights), and where to stay (camps and lodges). To make our Kenya spree even more perfect, we were assigned Dennis Mutumba Taligoola as ranger. He was perfectly as regards to time, flair for finding the animals in each reserva, and to tell us all about animals (habits, stats... all included). Not to mention he drives in a safe and responsible manner and is very polite and discrete. We will definitely recommend and hire Wildbeest Safaris again and we hope to do so very soon!

The experience was beyond our expectation recommending it the most memorable trip of a lifetime.
The highest possible recommendation for two great No.1 drivers/guides, Dennis Taligoola and Hamza Nyelo, both a credit to Wildebeest .These perfect gentlemen were knowledgable, intelligent, equipped with guide books and binoculars, therefore very informative. Lots of fun, easy to be with, parting as friends, making a very memorable experience. Even forging rivers or chasing leopards we felt safe and secure. Our short term drivers Dickson and Ken also took good care of us. Thanks for a wonderful Safari -it could not have been any better!!!
