"A wonderful adventure that we'll never forget"
I visited Kenya and 1 other country between 18 Jul 2016 and 2 Aug 2016
"Our honeymoon was many months in the planning but boy, was it worth it.
We had an absolutely epic adventure in Kenya and Zanzibar - we saw and experienced so much. We are truly fortunate to have been able to visit such extraordinary places and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others any of the places we visited. The trip of a lifetime!"

"Exceptional"
I visited Rwanda and 1 other country between 8 Jul 2016 and 19 Jul 2016
"Such a wonderful experience amongst some of the beautiful creatures with which we share this planet.
Combining the peaceful vegetarian Mountain Gorillas in the dense green forests of the Virungas, with the dusty, teeming expanse of the Maasai Mara at the time of the Great Migration gave a tremendous contrast in atmosphere and context.
Very good sighting experiences in both Rwanda and Kenya with knowledgeable guiding from local people with a real connection to the environment they were working in.
This was my first safari, and I think that if you appreciate the peace and grandeur of nature's wonders then there can be no better way to de-compress from everyday life than time spent in a camp like Naboisho.

The brochure is quite a piece of work !
I know such collateral is tremendously labour intensive and expensive to produce but I do very much appreciate it and I think it does articulate well your expertise and commitment to this market. If I do come to plan another African trip, it will be my go to resource." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 5 on a Rwanda safari

"Our July 2016 trip to Kenya"
I visited Kenya between 1 Jul 2016 and 13 Jul 2016
"The trip as a whole was perfectly organized. There are two reasons as to why we don´t deem it very satisfactory.
The first is that our guide at Kicheche Bush Camp talked us out of doing the whole day trip to the Mara reserve to see a Mara river crossing, which was something we had planned to do and were really looking forward to. He brought up a whole bunch of counter arguments, all of which later proved to be false. Among other things, he told us that the guides from KBC never do whole day trips to the reserve that time of the year, only from August on. However, on the day we left, on 11 July, two vehicles from KBC did exactly that, to see a Mara crossing.
The second reason is that we had requested guide Nelson Kasoe, in writing, to Richard Trillo, but in KBC they knew of no request in our name. This also was a huge disappointment, especially since another couple that arrived on the same day as us, got Nelson, without having requested so. We were also disappointed with the guide we got instead." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 12 on a Kenya safari

"Once in a life time Safari"
I visited Kenya between 7 Mar 2016 and 20 Mar 2016
"This holiday or should I say trip was a very memorable one. I have been to both locations before but my friend had not but I must say that this time was so much better. We both enjoyed the tented camps - bumping along game drives, especially the off track ones. Seeing all the game - landing in Samburu and within 15 minutes seeing a young leopard!!!!!
We are very well travelled but this trip will stick in our memory bank for ever.
Thank you for a very well planned trip.
