Quando progetta un safari parla con il piccolo team che lo conduce — le stesse persone che rispondono di come viene gestito ogni viaggio.

Chi progetta il suo safari è chi lo conduce
Wildtouch Tours & Travel è guidata da Jacob Munene, operatore keniano con base a Nairobi, oltre dieci anni di esperienza nel settore dei viaggi e la fama di esperto di fauna selvatica. Wildtouch è gestita dal titolare: quando pianifica un safari, tratta direttamente con il team che si occuperà del suo viaggio e non con un ufficio commerciale — e il fondatore risponde in prima persona di come ciascun viaggio viene condotto.
Dalla sua base di Nairobi, Wildtouch copre il circuito classico del safari keniano — il Masai Mara, il lago Nakuru, Samburu, Amboseli — e si spinge nei parchi della Tanzania settentrionale e nelle foreste dei primati del Ruanda. Il team Wildtouch costruisce ciascun viaggio attorno alla fauna, alla stagione e al modo in cui le piace viaggiare.
È questa continuità a fare la differenza. La persona che ascolta ciò che desidera dal suo safari è la stessa che disegna l'itinerario, prepara le guide e risponde al telefono. È così che Wildtouch trasforma una vacanza in una storia che vale la pena raccontare.

Viaggiare con Wildtouch
- What kind of safari operator is Wildtouch?
- Wildtouch Tours & Travel is an owner-managed East African safari operator based in Nairobi. Each safari is tailor-made and you deal directly with the team who run your trip — there is no sales desk between you and the people who run it.
- Which countries does Wildtouch cover?
- Kenya — the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Samburu, Amboseli, Tsavo, Meru and Laikipia. Tanzania — Tarangire, the Ngorongoro Crater, the Serengeti and Lake Manyara. Rwanda — Volcanoes National Park for mountain gorillas, Nyungwe Forest for chimpanzees, and Akagera. Combined journeys across two or three countries are arranged under a single booking.
- Are your safaris tailor-made?
- Yes. The itineraries on this site are sample journeys to start from. Length, pace, accommodation tier and special-interest add-ons — balloon flights, walking safaris, cultural visits, honeymoon touches — are all shaped around you before anything is confirmed.
- When is the best time to go on safari in East Africa?
- The dry season from June to October offers the strongest all-round wildlife viewing, and is when the wildebeest migration moves through the northern Serengeti and into the Maasai Mara — the dramatic Mara River crossings concentrating from around July to October. December to March is excellent too — the herds gather on the green southern Serengeti plains, with the wildebeest calving from late January to March, and quieter camps. We will advise the best window for the wildlife you most want to see.
- Do you arrange gorilla trekking in Rwanda?
- Yes. Wildtouch handles Rwanda primate trekking, with a specialism in mountain gorilla treks in Volcanoes National Park and chimpanzee tracking in Nyungwe Forest. Rwanda combines cleanly with an East African safari for travellers who want both Big Five wildlife and the primates on one trip.
- Are the safaris suitable for families and first-timers?
- Yes. Wildlife viewing is done from a comfortable private 4×4, the pace is set to suit you, and the team has experience hosting first-time travellers, couples and multi-generational families. Tell us who is travelling and we will shape the journey accordingly.
- How do I book, and what about prices?
- Start by sending an enquiry or emailing bookings@wildtouchafrica.com. The Wildtouch team will discuss your dates, party and what you want from the safari, then put together a tailored itinerary and a fixed quote. Set packages carry their published rates; everything tailor-made is quoted individually, because each trip is built individually.
- Where is Wildtouch based?
- Wildtouch is based at Rehani House, 10th Floor, Koinange Street, Nairobi, Kenya — with road and air links to the Kenyan parks, the northern Tanzania gateways at Arusha and Kilimanjaro, and Kigali for onward Rwanda travel.
