Booked family vacation at Masai Mara with Wildplus Escapades. Excellent customer service, prompt response, we had a wonderful vacation. Definitely planning our next trip with you.
Dear Wildplus Escapades, I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional team-building experience i had at Tsavo East.
The activities were engaging, fun, and fostered a strong sense of camaraderie among our team members. The venue was beautiful, and the food was delicious.
I highly recommend Wildplus Escapades for anyone looking for a memorable tour event. Thank you once again for the wonderful experience.
Me and my friends were taken to the office and then on our way to Amboseli National Park. The vehicle was very comfortable, for the 2 days we were going to be at the park and our driver/tour guide Wildplus Escapades was the best!
Wildplus Escapades cared to take us to the best spots for the best pictures of every single animal at sight. All of the staff was always on time, so we seized every single minute we had at the Park.
I had the privilege of celebrating my birthday the day we came back from the Park and all of the staff at Wildplus Escapades was so kind to celebrate with me and my friends at their office!
Our experience with Wildplus Escapades couldn’t have been better. We took the 3 day Amboseli tour and from the get go it was really special.
