Their excellence just cannot be described in one sentence so I won’t even try!

I have been doing safaris arranged by them for about 20 years and every single time have they not just lived up to expectations, they have excelled themselves every single time with their professionalism, personal involvement and setting the bar higher for themselves each time. One just cannot describe the experience and the only way to truly appreciate and understand it, is to go and experience it yourself. Shaheen and Fareen are exceptional at what they do, and never cease to amaze me with their ability to make your journey more enjoyable each time.

Amazing Safari Experience!

In January 2019, I had the experience of bringing a group of young people from all around the world to Kenya. One of the experiences that we wanted to showcase to them was a safari. Thanks to the help of Shaheen and Fareen, we were able to have one of the best safari experiences. Right from the start, they were attentive to our needs, they provided their insight and were able to ensure that we were able to have an experience that was extremely memorable. Their knowledge of each park was something I really appreciated – since they had intimate knowledge and had built powerful relationships – we were able to leverage their knowledge and their relationships as well. We ended up going to Ol Pejeta which was a great choice for our group. The safari was an amazing experience. Working with Wild Destinations was awesome as well! Thank you!

Wild Destinations delivered like they were a big tour operator

In the end our itinerary was Samburu, the Mara and Tarangire at the end of September.

I already felt good about what we decided on. It was about the same as what others offered and included accommodations with great reviews. The extra bonus was the execution. Wild Destinations may be a small operator, but they delivered like they were a bigger one. Being met at the airport and lodges etc are expected, but they added several personal touches to our honeymoon, that included meeting us herself at our hotel both at the beginning and end of our trip, giving us her cell number to call at any time if there was an issue (never had to use it), we were comfortable working through our guides, and they followed up with any nuance even after we returned home.

You often worry about what your trip will be like on African vacations, but with Wild Destinations, it was hassle free. I do wish I’d booked with them on the beach part of our vacations as well.

Maasai Mara Safari

Shaheen and Fareen far exceeded our expectations on this Safari adventure. Having never been on a safari, we were apprehensive and uncertain about expectations. We were blown away with our accommodations, food, safari rides and the special ‘surprises’ they set up for us each day. Can you imagine going on an amazing safari ride in the Mara, thinking your are heading home, driving around some bushes to see a fire, a full bar and appetizers awaiting you to enjoy and watch the sun go down? This is just an example of one of our unexpected surprises. I saw more animals and lions, that I could have hoped for! Our children felt safe and we were completely comfortable letting them roam the property we stayed whenever we weren’t on safari. I cannot say enough great things about this safari vacation and about Shaheen, Fareen and Wild Destinations. This is a bucket list item you’ll never forget.

Wild Destinations perfectly planned private safaris provides outstanding service

Shaheen always replied quickly to our many emails, answering all questions, concerns, and desires. Planning was easy since the arrangements are being made by an agent who has many years of experience, first hand knowledge of the areas and has visited all places prior to suggesting we stay there. Unlike working with a large travel agency located in the US, or having to use an agency’s set itinerary, we were able to tell Shaheen which places we wanted to visit, and she would then suggest the options available. Using Wild Destinations, the safari is completely customized. Upon arrival, there is great comfort in knowing that if any problems or concerns should arise, Shaheen and Fareen are right here in Africa, always available.

Their professionalism combined with a complete understanding of what we wanted resulted in our safari being a ‘trip of a lifetime’. Every place Shaheen selected for us to stay in was perfect; she made sure our total costs were reasonable and she stayed within our budget.

As a result of the reasonable cost, the individualized attention, the outstanding services and their knowledge of the areas, both of our safaris have been perfect! We highly recommend Wild Destinations and hope to return ourselves for our 3^rd safari.
