A FAMILY DREAM SAFARI IN KENYA
© 2026 SafariFind. 保留所有权利。
Last year, I went on an 8-day safari in Kenya with my wife and 3 kids, who weree visiting the country for the first time. After identifying three Kenya-based tour operators on the Internet and corresponding with them, we chose Across the wild tours and Safaris. Our itinerary was: Maasai Mara the Aberdares (Treetops)-Lake Nakuru. The company tour operations manager Fina, was very helpful in answering all our questions and, unlike the other operators that we contacted, she was most willing to organize the trip in accordance with our wishes. A few days to our safari, we met Fina who personally came to meet us on our arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International airport Nairobi, she was happy to meet us and we had a little chat before and we felt at home with her presence with us. She was indeed very welcoming and professional, which reassured us even more! Our accommodation – a mix of lodges, hotels and tents – was very good: the rooms were spacious and clean, the food was fresh and delicious, and staff made us feels very much at home. The tour guide/driver, Amos, with whom we naturally spent most of the time, was always punctual, professional and helpful. As a good storyteller, he shared his deep knowledge of the wildlife, geography and people of the areas that we visited, and answered our many questions patiently. We saw the "big five" and many other creatures’ great and small and in the parks, he did not always follow the well-trodden path, so we often spotted an animal or situation that everyone was hoping for. Amos would then radio the information to his fellow tour guides/drivers to share it with the other tourists. We are thankful to Across the wild tours and Safaris for enabling us to experience a most amazing safari! For my wife and kids, it was a life-changing introduction to the wild: from being extremely scared as we walked to our cottage from our lodge's dining area on our first evening in Samburu, to struggling to get back to his routine several weeks after the safari – because of all the wonderful memories! We were also pleased that the choice of vehicle we took a land cruiser 4 X4 was in perfect condition and well maintained, this are some little things that built our confidence with the choice of the tour operator we selected that is Across the wild tours and Safaris and we wish them well for sure and once again we say thank you. We are pleased to recommend this company to anyone wanting to go on a meaningful safari in Kenya. Stephen.

A GREAT EXPERIENCE OF KENYA
Kenya is so wonderful, but without Across The Wild it would not be more amazing. These people are just awesome. This was our third visit to Africa but our first safari in Kenya. We were so excited to finally touch down on Kenyan land. The good memorable experiences were so many. We were lucky to see all of the "Big Five" plus many other animals during our safari and also enjoyed some close encounters with them. What an adventure! Our guide was also in good contact with others on the radio, which resulted in faster to get to wonderful sightings and spots. The experiences were beautifully balanced. He was very experienced and knowledgeable. He would always ask us what we especially hoped to see during the game drives and make sure to go as deep to the parks to find their hideouts. We were very lucky and saw everything we had hoped to, and even more. To be honest, there were so many memorable moments. The wildlife, the guides' knowledge and the attention to details helped us a lot. Everyone in the family can't just think of any other way this trip could have been better. We had great time, fun and enjoyed the company of all the people we met, we learnt a lot, came back with many good memories and photos. We shall definitely recommend Across The Wild Tours and Safaris everywhere we go and we hope to use them again if we return to East Africa as we found out that they also operate in all countries in the East Africa. Also to note that I was very impressed when the tour manager of Across the Wild gave us a cell phone with talk time in it just incase we needed to communicate with them we could easily access, this was a gesture that went a long way and that was a fantastic idea.

Every day more exciting than the day before!!
Across the Wild Tour and Safari provided a well planned, executed safari! From the beginning the drivers Dedan, David, Ian were so professional yet very caring, we hd different groups and yet the whole trip was geared to all of us!!! Going in to the Samburu Reserve was more than I imagined! The beautiful animals met us right in the roadway … so magnificent ! Game drives did not disappoint; we were given time to enjoy the animals in their habitat.. pictures just cannot capture the beauty of a lion protecting its prey; or sitting with their young just gazing out; or the baby elephant that is playing; the newborn giraffe no more than two days old.; the rhinos in the water! Each day was better than the one before ! The drivers made sure our stops were safe … lots of outdoor adaptions took place! The overnight lodging, we stayed in different areas and each was unique.. tented camp was just awesome! The safari was so much more than I expected and it was due to Across the Wild tour and Safari … and the drivers! I hope to return to see my new family. I will not forget being able to be so close yet safe from the animals… unbelievable trip from start to finish!! Thank you

Excellent Kenya Safari
We all thoroughly enjoyed our 9-day Kenya safari with Dedan. He was a wonderful driver and guide. It's magical how he got us to just the right spot before the animals appeared, and amazing how knowledgeable he is about all the plants, animals and geography of the area. The company was very easy to work with and all the arrangements went smoothly. Our accommodations were excellent, especially the tented cabins inside the parks. I highly recommend this company.

A wonderful safari experience ever!
''Our first safari to Kenya and all turned out so well than we could ever have imagined, it was a once in a lifetime experience. we were a little more careful with choosing our safari provider being our first time in Kenya and on a wildlife safari we never wanted to miss out a thing or get disappointed. At first we had like 4 operators we were in contact with. But then the communication with Across The Wild was so perfect and quick that enabled us get all the information we needed in good time and so we felt confident about them and decided we shall book our safari tour with them. Every question was quickly answered and they gave us a lot of information about the tour and even helped us choose the best destinations and hotels since we really did not know much about Kenya and where to go but they made us even more eager, so we knew exactly what we were about to expect. Our driver guide Joseph was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We could not believe how he managed to locate those leopards in Masai Mara! We surely could not have asked for a better safari. I traveled with my husband and he was so excited being his first time in Africa that he even promised he will come back and choose Across The Wild Tours and Safaris again! I recommend this company to anyone traveling to Kenya.''

Unbelievably Amazing First Time Safari Experience!
We booked the Safari around 8 months in advance for me and my father, the planning and communication with Fina was perfect beforehand. We emailed her and got a response on the same day, across the wild had a pre proposed itinerary, we could customize this to our needs, and all this too was quickly and efficiently communicated, we wanted to remove a night and add it in another park, and this was done rapidly with no problem. I had planned this for 3 people, however only few weeks before one of us had to cancel out, despite this very short notice, Fina was able to call hotels and change the booking while also giving money back with minor cancellation fees, this was handled very well by the agency. On the day of arrival, Fina had managed to meet us in the hotel despite the very late time, this was very hospitable and well appreciated. All the Payments were safe and handled well by the Across the Wild. All the promises on the itinerary were delivered and exceeded. The booking was very reliable with no problems at all, flawless! During the trip there was a Wifi problem, so my mother back at home was worried because we hadn’t messaged for a whole day, so Fina called us to make sure we were alright and told my mother the news. Fina throughout the trip conveyed her regards to us through our guide David, which was well appreciated. Our Guide David was Fantastic! He was kind and hospitable from the very start of the journey at the pickup in the airport. He was eager to show us the best safari possible for the next 10 days. He was very knowledgeable, not only in the wildlife but in Many other things. My father and David had great conversations about politics and life in Kenya etc, he taught me and my father a lot of facts, while we also had many things to share about our culture (India), he was keen to learn about different cultures just like us, he is very easy to talk to. David is also very punctual, he was always early and ready to kick off game drives, transport to other parks etc. He had the Land cruiser prepped with roof open, windows open and our bottles filled with water before every game drive. The Land cruiser was slightly old with some issues like door getting jammed sometimes etc however this did not really create any issue on the whole, we never had problems during game drives with the cruiser as it was always fixed by David in time, and no serious issue to the cruiser anyways. We had to once wait at a gas station during transport longer than expected, this bothered my dad slightly as he felt this part wasn’t organized that well and was wasting some time, however I personally didn’t find this a huge problem as we reached on time in the end. David seemed to know everything about the wildlife in Kenya, from the trees to the smallest of birds, the massive amount of wildlife knowledge was amazing, given the fact that I’ve been a wildlife enthusiast since a young age. He is eager to teach this to us, as he sometimes questions us about animals and places to keep us interacted. He is a very careful driver, trying his best to reduce the impact of bumps and potholes on the road for the passengers, he kept within the speed limit during transport which made us feel very safe. He is also very respectful to the animals, keeping distance and giving them privacy, yet giving us the perfect shots of the animals, we got very close interactions while still respecting the wildlife. He was very patient and listened to our wants and needs as well. He gave us plenty of time to just relax and enjoy the animals around us. He was so good at giving us animal satisfaction that we did not want to take any more pictures of Lions because we had more than enough! We saw the big 5 and way way more! David also positioned us for the best view of a cheetah hunt which we witnessed on our last day, he made each game drive top the last one! I mentioned that my favorite animal was the cheetah, he ensured we see the cheetah, and we got to observe a cheetah for a whole day, and witness every moment of a cheetah’s day, this was amazing and all thanks to his knowledge of parks and patience given during the drives. He also was funny and insightful. If I had to go again I would definitely choose David as our guide. A very gentle and humble person. We hope his family can visit the Mara soon as they haven’t been there yet. We were at Amboseli, Ol Pajeta , Lake Naivasha and Masai Mara, for a total of 10 days, all the lodges were friendly and impeccable, sweetwaters at Ol Pajeta is definitely a recommendation, with a must do night safari as an optional cost. The lodges were chosen by the agency and were all great choices. We had seen almost everything and we left very very happy and satisfied, we had a safe trip too especially during the election etc, so we thank across the wild a lot for giving us this opportunity for this great experience. I am looking to come back again with more family hopefully some time in the future! What a wonderful experience! Across the Wild fulfills an amazing experience at a good monetary value, I definitely recommend!
