I have done many safaris in the past, three weeks in Botswana which was incredible, many 3-4 day safaris in Kenya, in Mara,Tsavo east, Amboseli and South Africa. None compared to this. Despite it being low season due to many animals away in Serengeti for migration we saw everything we could have hoped for and more. The vehicle quality was excellent our lodges were superb. We booked a private safari in 2020 but that fell apart due to Covid. I was impressed that despite enormous hardship and obstacles this company honoured my previous deposit even though I didn’t request it. Our driver guide, Thomas, was amazing, a true professional, very aware and understanding of our preferences (since we are both in our sixties) we saw five different groups of both white and a black rhino, two separate lion kills, a crocodile kill, leopard, cheetah, buffalo, lots of elephant, wilderbeast and zebra with babies plus many more animals and birds. I have no reservations whatsoever in recommending this company, they offer tailor made experiences without the sometimes ridiculous prices seen offered by UK and US travel companies. When Thomas took us to the airport to fly to Mombasa he said that if we needed any help in Mombasa, private day tours or whatever we could call their Mombasa office for assistance. As a final word I’d say that we had intense and emotional experiences, sometimes we were in tears, the histories and stories we heard from Thomas and his encyclopaedic knowledge were quite remarkable. In addition though we laughed our way around Kenya, the humour and banter were sparkling. Thank you Thomas, ‘ I have to inform you’ we will never forget you and you will always be in our hearts, as will the Kenya you showed to us.
