This Kenya & Tanzania Wildebeest Calving Safari is expertly designed for travelers seeking front-row access to one of Africa’s most dramatic wildlife events, the Great Migration calving season in the southern Serengeti ecosystem.

Fantastic trip across Kenya, Tanzania & Zanzibar If you’re looking to do a full safari circuit in East Africa, I can’t recommend Camptrek Safaris enough. We covered a huge amount of ground—Amboseli, the Mara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater—before flying out to Zanzibar to wind down. Everything behind the scenes was handled by Rose, who was brilliant to work with. She was always quick to respond to questions, kept us updated, and ensured every handoff between regions was seamless. On the road, our guides Eric, Ben, and Jackson were second to none. They were reliable, knew the roads and parks inside out, and made sure we got the absolute most out of every single game drive. Huge thanks to Rose and the guys for making this such a memorable experience!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Safari for the heart I knew our safari would be magical, however, I wasn’t prepared for the healing, connection, and restoration it brought to my heart and spirit. We were in a group of 11 traveling through Kenya, Tanzania, and Zanzibar. Everything was seamless - from CampTrek’s help prior to leaving with required paperwork, the countless connections, each hotel was a magnificent experience (AMARI MARA WOW WOW WOW!!), the food and coffee are incredible (you will not go hungry!!), the hot air balloon ride is worth every penny, the animals and scenery leave you in awe, and the best part - meeting such bright, generous, loving people. I am filled with gratitude and still trying to process and hold tight to how my life has changed. A special thanks to John, Ben, Simon, Augustin, and Margaret for making our trip so beautiful - my heart is overflowing. Africa truly is a feeling!!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

My African safari experience Being my first safari, I didn’t know what to expect. My expectations were exceeded in every aspect, staff, transportation, lodging, and the wildlife experience. Our group’s satisfaction was our guide’s number one priority which was met exceptionally. I would highly recommend Camptrek excursions.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Unforgettable wildlife safari with the best guide Our family of four, including two teenagers, spent 14 unforgettable days on safari with Camp Trek, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. From the very beginning, everything was organized perfectly. Every transfer, the great accommodations, and activity worked exactly as planned, and the entire trip ran without a single issue. We also appreciated travelling in a modern, comfortable, and well-maintained safari car. However, what truly makes or breaks a safari is the guide. We were incredibly fortunate to have Pili Pili as our guide. He is simply outstanding - champions league! For him, guiding is not just a job—it is clearly his passion. His knowledge of wildlife is exceptional, and he shared fascinating insights about the animals, the landscapes, the culture, and the people of Kenya. We learned so much every single day. On top of that, Pili Pili is an extremely safe and considerate driver. He treats both wildlife and people with great respect, and always made us feel comfortable and secure. We cannot imagine a better guide and would recommend Camp Trek anytime. If you have the chance to request Pili Pili, do it!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

A Perfect East African Safari Adventure I was late to the start and didn't think we could pull it off. But Kayla and the team made it happen anyway, adjusting everything behind the scenes without missing a beat. Our Kenya & Tanzania safari was beyond perfect, hassle-free, breathtaking, and expertly guided. Highly recommend!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Every aspect of our transfers and accommodations met the highest standards. The dedicated team, including Ben (Kenyan Guide), Augustine (Trainee Guide), Lucy (Admin), and Shabby (Tanzanian Guide), along with all CAMPTREK staff, orchestrated an unparalleled African experience. For those seeking a seamless and premium safari, CAMPTREK SAFARIS is highly recommended.
