"My Aug 2014 trip"
I visited Kenya between 19 Aug 2014 and 1 Sep 2014
"We enjoyed our trip and will have many good memories. When three people travel together, it's difficult to represent all opinions in one rating form, but the important point of view is that we were glad we went and were largely satisfied with our itinerary.
Emakoko, where we spent our last day, was not on the feedback list. I'd like to add that it is lovely and I would have enjoyed an overnight there. When I was dealing with a family emergency and had no cell signal, Anton was very generous and helpful, and the staff was excellent. Also, this was the best food we had on our trip."

"My Aug 2014 trip"
I visited Kenya between 1 Aug 2014 and 10 Aug 2014
"A really brilliant and well organised trip, the combination of El Karama and Encounter Mara was a really nice combination and worked well. Transfers were painless and I really couldn't ask for more.
Thanks again for organising.

"Our July 2014 trip to the Masai Mara"
I visited Kenya between 22 Jul 2014 and 29 Jul 2014
"It was just such a wonderful and memorable experience made all the better by the really friendly and efficient staff at all the camps. The Masai are such lovely people and they helped to make our game drives unforgettable.

"Our African Safari"
I visited Kenya between 22 Jul 2014 and 29 Jul 2014
"This trip was a surprise 70th Birthday present for my husband, and also a planned 70th birthday trip for another family member.
Everything could not have gone more smoothly from start to finish. Clear instructions at all times, personal contact with Richard Trillo when necessary. Prompt action taken to solve just one small glitch with checking in our flight on the day before we left, but otherwise no problems at all.
I would not have wanted to organise this trip independently, Expert Africa team did a great job" Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 7 on a Kenya safari

"My Jul 2014 trip"
I visited Kenya between 22 Jul 2014 and 29 Jul 2014
"Wonderful Safari all round, but we felt a bit let down by the Porini Mara Camp - although they give one of our party a good birthday dinner. we don't think we have any major concerns - all camps will be different, and we had a very good time.

"Exceelent. A wonderful trip"
I visited Kenya between 16 Jul 2014 and 23 Jul 2014
"We had an excellent trip.
Timing was just about right--ie a week.
The Base camp Mara camp could have been better but it was only one night and set the other two camps up." Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 7 on a Kenya safari

"Honeymoon heaven"
I visited Kenya between 14 Jul 2014 and 21 Jul 2014
"We couldn’t thank Richard enough for organizing such a wonderfully planned trip. Our first time to Africa, on our first Safari and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience and service thank you.
Richard managed our expectations of our honeymoon incredibly well, working with our wish list, budget and his experience to suggest the best trip. He also listened to us as a couple and our personalities to understand what we were looking for in the trip and tailor making it to us. Richard was a pleasure to communicate with on the phone and email, always available for support throughout the process from questions about luggage to plugs.. I felt I was able to ask every kind of question and wouldn’t feel silly for asking it! The information packs we received were really helpful, especially around tipping and vaccinations, the travel pack now acts as a handy travel wallet for the future too!
The recommendations we took from Richard were absolutely spot on for us, especially the communication to the lodges that we were on our honeymoon so we had some private dining, champagne gifts and more importantly memories to last a life time!
We would recommend using Expert Africa and Richard’s advice for a bespoke, well trusted service" Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 7 on a Kenya safari
