About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Theemperormarkus0 contributionsGreat safari with CharoWe are a family of three who travelled to Kenya via Egypt. Booking the safari was straightforward and there were good options for the dates we had. We decided to upgrade some of the hotels to make sure we had a pool and good accommodation. This worked out well and we were happy with our stays. In particular, we loved the luxury tents at Amboseli. Our guide and driver was Charo. He was fantastic and he did a great job for us. We had a good size SUV/truck to ourselves and the roof popped up so we good see out. We could also charge devices. Charo was very friendly and also very knowledgeable about the animals we would see and he answered all our questions, including those from our 11 year-old. He was always punctual and felt very secure with him. He was accommodating and would stop places we needed to, like ATMs and grocery stores. Charo did a great job at finding all the animals. We saw the Big Five as well as many animals. He helped us to identify all the various birds we found on our travels as well. Given that this was the low season we were pretty lucky with the weather and we avoided a lot of crowds. I would strongly recommend this tour and Charo, in particular. He was fabulous!Written 19 March 2025
- christophercO1190KR0 contributionsBest Safari EverWords cannot express our experience for this Safari. Our driver Sammy, took great care of us. He went out of his way to make sure we had the best experience, and got us as close to the animals as possible. The camp we stayed in was small, but very comfortable and the staff were very hospitable to make us feel welcomed.Written 19 March 2025
- Ambassador5236530 contributionsAwesome experience.The views were amazing. We took many photos. Robert, our wonderful tour guide, made sure we saw as many animals as possible. He was knowledgeable, super relational, helpful, humorous, happy and always positive. The accommodation was great, food delicious and staff friendly.Written 15 March 2025
- Sightsee252268632640 contributionsGood relaxing day after intense 3 working daysWe were on time to see the mountain before the rain, good day looking for animals and visited the Masai village. Great experience to see large part of the country while driving to the parkWritten 13 March 2025
- Nils M0 contributionsLovely day in HellWe had a lovely day out in Hell. Nuru, our driver, was super nice and skilled on the wheel. He took us to a beautiful viewpoint in the rift valley and told us a lot about Nairobi and Kenya. The bike ride was pleasant and not too exhausting. We had a very nice and knowledgeable guide called Gomez, who showed us around the park and gave us great insight into the park's history and ecosystem. All in all it was a great experience.Written 12 March 2025
- Passport8268360 contributionsAmazing time in Maasai Mara SafariExcellent 3 day/2 night Maasai Mara Safari. Jeff was my guide/driver. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. He made the whole experience safe and enjoyable. He’s an excellent driver. I saw so many animals including lions, cheetahs and even a leopard. Highly recommended!Written 11 March 2025
- 839tobyg0 contributionsGreat park with a great guideThe National Park was amazing but the tour was made so much better because of Perfect Safaris, and especially my guide, Festus Kazungu. Booking was so easy, they came on time and Festus was knowledgeable and personable. Ask him about his favorite bird. It’s a really funny story!Written 11 March 2025
- bilge_3540 contributionsLake NakuruLake Nakuru was absolutely stunning. We encountered countless buffalo, zebras, impalas, baboons, and a wide variety of bird species. Festus and Larisa were exceptional guides—they were incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and made the experience even more enjoyable with their great company. Although the road to the lake was quite bumpy, the journey was more than worth it.Written 7 March 2025
- FarAway6329180 contributionsThree-day Maasai Mara experienceThe three-day Maasai Mara tour (including Land Cruiser and park fees) was such an amazing experience. Our guide, Charo (Sammy), was absolutely fantastic. He knew the park like the back of his hand and was able to find and show us four of the big five (and so much more!) - only the rhino was missing but they are rare in Maasai Mara. He was also extremely knowledgeable, considerate and put the welfare of the animals first - always allowing us time and opportunity to take photos and enjoy the views while also making sure the animals weren’t impacted by us. Highly recommend both the three-day safari (but now thinking the five-day would also have been nice!) and Sammy. We upgraded to Jamba Mara Lodge - also highly recommend! Along with the visit to the Maasai village. Only good things to say. So glad we booked this tour!Written 6 March 2025
- Trail7578250 contributionsGreat morning with FestivusAn amazing sunrise 3 hour tour! The booking was very easy, I was met at my hotel on time with my tour guide, Festivus. He was very knowledgeable of the park and the animals.Written 4 March 2025
- olapP9478CC0 contributionsGreat safari in Masai MaraThe trip was exceptional. We saw so many beautiful animals . The views were amazing. Also the hotel was so beyond my expectations. And of course the best driver - Castro - thank you for the great safari 😃Written 3 March 2025
- lexi710 contributionsAmazingWe visited Tsavo East on a private tour while we were on The NCL Dawn. Wow!! This trip was amazing. Benjamin was our tour guide and he goes out of his way to make sure that the experience is a trip of a lifetime. We were there on a Sunday morning and the traffic was like nothing I have seen before , I really didn’t think that we would get there and back in time for the ship. Benjamin was the best driver and we arrived in no time. We saw all the animals and he made sure we got the best photos. We had a 5⭐️ lunch. We were back on board 45 minutes early. I would recommend.Written 3 March 2025
- TGUSTAVS0 contributionsThank you Perfect Wilderness!! Greatest safari and incredible memories for the rest of your life!Let me tell you about our experience! It was incredible! Everything was great from the very beginning. I want to immediately thank our guide Mark, who was impeccable in everything. Without him, we would not have seen what we saw. He complied with our request to leave earlier than the appointed time without any unnecessary questions. He also did his job as efficiently as possible and did everything to ensure that we saw all the animals. I highly recommend everyone to go on a safari with him. You will definitely be delighted! A huge thank you to the director George, who answered any of our questions as quickly as possible, helped us with everything and was very kind from start to finish. We managed to see the big 5 and the ugly 5. On the Mara River, we saw a huge 5 meter crocodile, which was shocking😅. We saw all the main animals up close and took incredible pictures! Unfortunately I can't share all the amazing photos because most of them were taken with a camera. It was an unforgettable experience that will remain in your memory for the rest of your life. I definitely recommend a safari with this company. We will be back soon! Thank you so much!💛🧡Written 27 February 2025

This was one of the most amazing adventures of my life. Kevin was the best guide, he was punctual, friendly, knowledgeable and it was like another friend joined us on our trip to show us around. We were able to see four of the big five in one day. All living happily in a conservatory safe from being hunted by man and being well cared in nature. That meant a lot to us. I can't rate this high enough. I would recommend you try going if you can.

The tour was amazing we saw lots of animals.
A big thank you to our guide Danson, he was really good.
The only negative thing was that when we booked with the tour operator it said that lunch not included would cost 25USD . But when we arrived there the cost was way more. Luckily Danson found us another place to eat!

We gad a great day with Frederik. Right on time and very efficient. A good driver that did his best to show us everything there is to see. Be aware that with this tour you only see the 2 northern white rhinos from behind a fence and cannot get close.

Perfect Safaris Africa lives by its name!
Our experience was wonderful especially due to the leadership and professionalism by our guide Kevin! He is very knowledgeable about everything related to wildlife and the richness of Kenyan culture. He knows the best photo ops, the best places to stop for snacks, and he has gained the trust of the Ol Pejeta rangers for them to guide you even more.
Visiting Ol Pejeta and visiting Najin and Fatu, the last two Northern white rhinos was exceptional. If you make it all the way to Kenya, without a doubt, make it all the way to Ol Pejeta. Visit them, touch their horns, and recommit yourself to doing all you can to protect wildlife and nature.
It's a long day (leaving at 5am and arriving about 8pm) but totally worth it! If you have the time, stay overnight at a hotel.

My mom and I had a great tour with Danson to Ol Pejeta Conservancy. We went as a day trip from Nairobi so it was a long day but definitely worth it. In addition to visiting the Chimpanzee Sanctuary, Baraka the black rhino, and Fatu and Najin (the last two Northern white rhinos on earth), we saw plenty of animals driving through the conservancy. I highly recommend this tour. Our guide Danson was great - very thoughtful, friendly, and knowledgeable!

It is definitely worth visiting Ol Pejeta. Our guide, Antony was great trying to spot and show us all animals. It is also the home for the last living representatives of Northern White Rhinos, so it was a great experience. The only disappointment was we couldn't see chimps, they hid in the forest. So if you are going there for chimps only, put your expectations low...

Hello,
Thanks so much for dropping us such a good review with her 5 star rating. We are glad to hear that your day trip to OL Pajeta Conservancy was an amazing one and worth going. Its a unique conservancy since its the home of the remaining Northern White Rhinos. Its sometimes difficult to see chimps as they always tend to hide in the forest since that's their habitat.
Thanks for spreading the good vibes. We hope to serve you and many others in the near future.

Our guide Tony was great, he accommodated all our requests allowing us time to see the chimpanzees, Equator marker and the Northern White Rhinos, he was also very knowledgeable about the animals we saw on safari. Would recommend him as he delivers on what the tour itinerary was sold as and gave us a good amount of time to see the Northern White Rhinos.

The pick up time was a little too early as far as 5am. Ol Pejeta is a must due if you're into rhinos. I got to see all three of them. This tour was booked at the last moment and it was worth it. Great buffet lunch. On the way back as I'm dropped off in Nairobi. I had forgotten a personal item in the car. This company gave me the item the next day first thing in the morning. I'm happy I had done this tour at very last minute.
