My Feb 2024 trip
Kenya between 5 Feb 2024 and 20 Feb 2024
"Our trip was run like a well-oiled machine. From start to finish you didn't have to worry about one aspect of your itinerary.
To make this point clearer, on arrival at the airport to depart Nairobi it looked like total chaos and we could only park some distance from the terminal. I thought how are we going to know where to go and carry our bags. The driver opened our door and there was the guide with a trolley for our luggage. He guided us to the priority check in and ensured a smooth process. This illustrates our experience throughout."
