About Us

Our Story

Travel Wild was founded in 2000 and continues to offer visitors exciting holiday options in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Rwanda.  The company’s mission is to provide intimate experiences with an emphasis on personalized service for all of our visitors.  Travel Wild caters to Luxury FIT,  MICE and corporate travelers into East Africa.

WHO WE ARE

Travel Wild began with a dream, a dream of sharing the wonders of the vast Africa wilderness with people from around the globe. Living under the African skies in such close proximity to huge expanses of plains, teeming wildlife and a rich mix of different cultures has made us feel immensely privileged. We hope that when you visit, we will be able to share with you the positive spirit and vision of East Africa.

We specialize in tours in East Africa – KENYA, TANZANIA, UGANDA, AND RWANDA. This is the land we know and love. Travel Wild was founded and is run by people who were born in East Africa and to whom it is home. The local knowledge and the passion we have for East Africa, its peoples and cultures have inspired our itineraries and we are constantly looking for new safari options. The scope for adventures is endless.

WHAT DO WE DO?

We arrange holiday options for our guests: Safaris, Beach Destinations, Zanzibar Tours, Day Excursions, and Adventure Holidays.

Our safaris are fresh and inspired. They offer action, fun, and adventure in areas of outstanding beauty, together with opportunities to meet local peoples and experience the rich and varied cultures of east Africa. Our guides are multilingual and fully trained, with extensive knowledge of the areas we operate in – the cultures and customs, flora and fauna.

Experience:

  • sitting 2 meters from a pride of lions as they stalk their prey
  • staring a 6000kg (13,000lb) elephant in the eyes as he plays in a waterhole
  • watching the sunrise over the horizon from atop Africa’s tallest mountain
  • enjoying a pina colada with white-sand beneath you and coastal paradise all around
  • biting into a fresh mango at a spice plantation in Zanzibar 

We have listed some of our popular itineraries here on our website. However, as every guest’s travel plans are unique, contact us for a tailor made itinerary for your adventure.
