I cannot appreciate all of those beautiful places without our terrific guide Raymond and our best safari driver Martin, without both of them I think that probably we missed something! No fear no problems during the four days safari. Asante sana Massimo, Alessia, Beatrice and Agata.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David ci ha organizzato un safari con jeep privata a Tsavo Est di 2 giorni. Max, la guida, e Ringhio, l’autista, sono stati fantastici. Non potevamo chiedere di più. Esperti, gentili e professionisti. Il Lodge (Aruba Ashnil) bellissimo, e abbiamo avuto la fortuna di vedere tantissimi animali. Se torneremo, sicuramente ci affideremo di nuovo a questa agenzia!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just completed a 3-day safari with this Watamu Safaris and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The organization was excellent, communication was clear, and everything ran smoothly. Our guide was knowledgeable, professional, and truly passionate about wildlife. He made sure we had the best possible sightings and explained everything in detail. The vehicle was comfortable and well maintained, and the accommodation and meals were great. We felt safe, well taken care of, and fully immersed in the experience. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a well-organized, memorable safari adventure. Thank you for an amazing trip!
