Kenya was incredible, we saw all the Big Five and the Ugly Five. Truly an experience of a lifetime.

From the very beginning, the preparation and guidance provided by the UnWild Planet team made a huge difference right from packing tips to detailed pre-trek instructions, everything felt thoughtfully planned. Dipannita ensured I felt well-prepared and confident even before setting foot on the trail. On the trek, the team was honestly the best part, they didn’t feel like guides, more like friends who had your back the whole way. Their encouragement kept us going, especially on the tougher days. A special mention to my guide, Cecil - those last miles would not have been possible without him. All in all, a beautiful experience
