    What a once in a lifetime experience. Never to be forgotten. Emmanuel, Francis and Adam were truly amazing and looked after me during my trip to Kenya and Tanzania. I was the only on this tour as others had pulled out, but they made me feel relaxed and we had a great time! Thank you again HDS, just a fantastic trip!

    The animals are majestic and the tour guides, drivers and customer service personnel are kind, helpful, and fantastic -- they have a lot of knowledge about animal species, social behavior, diet, migrations, etc. Very safe driving on muddy roads.
