Chairmans Message

Wildlife Safari has worked hard for over thirty six years to earn a reputation that is second to none. We have maintained our high standards of safety, quality, value and service while constantly reviewing and improving our product throughout Africa. And we continue to improve.

Tom Fernandes, the founder of Wildlife Safari, still maintains a “hands on” control over the operation from our head office in Nairobi, Kenya while Noel D’Souza and his team of safari experts plan your perfect safari from our Concord, California office. We are the only “af rica ” operator with its head office actually in Africa.

Wildlife Safari has enhanced our selection of luxury safaris to Africa to include only the best wildlife sanctuaries with unsurpassed game viewing from the finest safari lodges and camps. Our city hotels and beach resorts are selected for their unique charm and unequalled service, while our guides are simply the best in Africa.

We continue to introduce unique and exclusive features on our luxury “Signature Safaris” to include some of our exclusive experiences that make your safari a journey of a lifetime.

Tom Fernandes and the Wildlife Safari team look forward to welcoming you on safari.

Our Vehicles

Wildlife Safari is one of the few safari operators that owns and operates our entire fleet of custom built 4WD safari vehicles. Every vehicle is custom built to our specifications with comfortable seats, safety belts, large “pop up” photographic roof hatch, dust proofing, luggage storage and cool box with a supply of bottled water. All vehicles carry a first aid kit, spare parts and a selection of field guides. It is also equipped with a radio system to communicate with our Nairobi office. Every Wildlife Safari vehicle undergoes a total service and safety check after every safari in our own maintenance facility. Our vehicles are sold after just three years in service, usually to another safari company. Our “signature safaris” are operated by custom built 4WD vehicles for added safety and comfort. Every 4WD carries a maximum of four (regular 4WD) or six (stretch 4WD) guests so that everyone has a guaranteed window seat and access to the photographic roof hatch for the entire safari, without having to rotate guests during the safari.

Our Guides

The Wildlife Safari team of guides is the best in the business. All our guides are full time employees with an average of thirteen years with the company. Every Wildlife Safari guide has a very broad knowledge about the history, geography, people, cultures, animals and birds of East Africa as well as being an excellent driver with mechanical skills. Each guide has only four or six guests for the entire safari, depending on the type of vehicle, and provides a very personal experience. Wildlife Safari guides consistently score high marks in the Kenya Safari Guides Association rankings and our guides are in demand from repeat guests.

UNLIMITED GAME VIEWING
As Wildlife Safari operates its own safari vehicles we offer unlimited game viewing drives. Other companies who hire vehicles and guides limit game viewing guides to a fixed time or mileage limit. Wildlife Safari guides discuss game viewing options that suit our guests, not the company, and will be happy to arrange full day game viewing with an optional picnic lunch at some wildlife sanctuaries. Nature walks are also included in some locations at no additional cost. Our guides always maintain an acceptable distance from wildlife and avoid crowded game viewing situations. Our itineraries have been designed to maximize game viewing such as Ngorongoro Crater with a special picnic breakfast followed by a morning of game viewing without the crowds.

SERVICE, SERVICE, SERVICE
Wildlife Safari prides itself on providing the best service from the time you make your reservations to the time you board your flight home. Tom Fernandes personally monitors the daily operations from our head office in Nairobi, assisted by a dedicated team of safari experts who are available at any time. Designated customer service staff meet guests on arrival at Nairobi airport and escorts them to their hotel to assist with registration and provide a welcome briefing. Our staff also assist with any sightseeing, restaurants and flight reconfirmations – its all part of our service, service, service.

Wildlife Safari can custom design the perfect safari to suit most special requests including weddings and honeymoons, family safaris, golf safaris, bird watching, etc. Please contact our safari experts for further assistance.
