The traditional naming ceremony was a wonderful and unforgettable experience. The members of the village greets us with warm smiles as we danced and celebrated together as a family. It was heart-warming to see the excitement and joy in the eyes of all of the children when we arrived and during our visit. This was an amazing and life changing event.

I kind of knew what to expect but it far exceeded my expectations. From the moment we were picked up at the hotel to all of the learning and teaching moments shared along the ride. Witnessing the children so alive and the ceremony was more than I ever imagined it would be. After the ceremony the lunch and boat ride was lovely. I’m so that I was blessed to get this experience.

Only my teenage daughter and I participated but the foremost feeling for us was safety. We were picked up at our hotel by Freedom and Jeff who are very knowledgeable about the area so it felt like a tour on our way to the village. Once there, we were warmly greeted with dancing and drumming. Daniel, the village leader, explained the entire process to us before they began. Freedom also served as our interpreter when it was time for us to give a speech or say thanks. The added bonus is that it was on my birthday so everyone exuberantly sang happy birthday! I value the level of customer service provided by Foster, the owner.
