Perfect Safari Experience

Perfect Safari organized an awesome private safari trip for our family. The whole trip from start to finish was smooth and enjoyable. Japhet, our trip planner, not only personally took us from the airport to the hotel and gave us nice safari hats, but also accommodated all of our requests during the trip. Our awesome tour guides, Sammy in Kenya and Alfayo in Tanzania, are professional tour guides. Their wealth of knowledge made us appreciate and understand the natural beauties of Kenya and Tanzania better; their warm personalities made us feel that Kenya and Tanzania are great countries to visit. Our friends are so impressed by the photos and videos we took on the trip that they plan to animals on safari themselves. I strongly recommend Perfect Safari to anyone who wants to explore Kenya and Tanzania. Thanks to Japhet, Sammy, Alfayo who made our first Africa safari trip so unforgettable. We look forward to going back to Kenya and Tanzania in the future.

Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you for sharing your fantastic experience with Perfect Safari. It sounds like a memorable trip, and Japhet, Sammy, and Alfayo made it truly special. Your recommendation is much appreciated, and it's wonderful to hear you plan to return in the future. Here's to more adventures in the future. Regards Sylvia

Flying safari!! The picture I posted were actually taken from my iPhone!!!

For those who want a private custom safari in Kenya and Tanzania, I highly recommend perfect safaris. First of all, the correspondence between myself and perfect safaris tour coordinator/guide Lewenei was very fast considering the time zone differences. Lewenei helped us put together a perfect trip regarding our price and time frame. We worked together to pick safari lodges that we loved. At the beginning of the safari, Lewenei was extremely punctual and gave us a detailed introduction and addressed any questions and concerns had. We chose to do the “flying safari” (which I highly recommend) to maximize our time exploring the wildlife of Kenya and Tanzania. Every daily experience was tailored based on how we were feeling that day. One day we had an extremely long day that started out very early. Lewenei organized a picnic on the plains of Maasai Mara to watch the sunset with wine and beers. It was incredible. The transfer from to Kenya was an excited perfect experience. Flying from dirt airfields to the Serengeti was an amazing experience. Our guide in the Serengeti was a true expert in wildlife in the area. He knew exactly where to go to see animals and was great at helping us get the perfect photos. Accommodations in both Maasai Mara and Serengeti were both fantastic. I recommend this tour group provider to anyone looking for safaris. Families, couples, friends… they can tailor an adventure for you!

Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you for the glowing recommendation. It's great to hear that you had such a positive experience with Perfect Safaris. Lewenei and the team seemed to have tailored the perfect safari for you, and you enjoyed the flying safari and accommodations in Maasai Mara and the Serengeti. Your detailed feedback is sure to help others considering their options for safaris. Here's to more adventures in the future. Regards Sylvia

8 days 7 nights best Kenya and Tanzania private lodging safari: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.

How much does 8 days 7 nights best Kenya and Tanzania private lodging safari cost?

+

Prices start at $1945 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nairobi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does 8 days 7 nights best Kenya and Tanzania private lodging safari take?

+

Plan for about 192 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nairobi is not rushed.

Is 8 days 7 nights best Kenya and Tanzania private lodging safari worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule 8 days 7 nights best Kenya and Tanzania private lodging safari?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is 8 days 7 nights best Kenya and Tanzania private lodging safari suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 192-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book 8 days 7 nights best Kenya and Tanzania private lodging safari?

+

Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nairobi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nairobi and add a light layer if any part of the 192-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does 8 days 7 nights best Kenya and Tanzania private lodging safari start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nairobi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Nairobi?

+

On Outty we rank every Nairobi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3 days group joining safari to Maasai Mara with a Land Cruiser Jeep, 1 Day trip to Hells Gate and optional Lake Naivasha From Nairobi, Nairobi Masai village Day Tour Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Nairobi?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Nairobi?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
