    This trip was a life changing experience. It has made me feel safe and able to travel on my own knowing that there will always be a fantastic guide and group-mates to share the adventure with. I will have these memories for the rest of my life. I also didn?t see a section to review our second Uganda CEO, Jamil. 10?s across the board. Jamil was the ultimate logistics and timekeeper of our group and was always sure we had the information we needed. While more reserved than his counterpart Luke, Jamil?s passion for Uganda?s community and wildlife was just as clear. He was always sharing information about the activities we were participating in and how they benefited the local communities?especially in regards to how Uganda had teamed up with locals to ensure they benefitted from wildlife conservation efforts and how this has reduced poaching. Jamil was conscientious and caring and always had our group?s experience at the forefront. When I felt sick after a travel day, Jamil was the one who suggested my roommate bring back hot water and lemon to our room to help me feel better which was a godsend. Jamil was a huge part about what made this experience so great and I couldn?t leave this survey without giving him proper thanks.

    Trip of a lifetime that exceeded all my expectations, I cannot recommend this trip enough. I cannot stop telling everyone about all of it, amazing group and CEO's who managed the difficult character in the group the best they could. Spectacular views and experiences of wildlife I could have dreamt of. I would happily do this trip again.

    This trip was amazing. The opportunity to see such a diverse range of wildlife but also experience the culture of Kenya and Uganda. The CEOs Joseph, Ronnie and Elton also really made the trip. Shout out to our driver in Kenya - Vincent.

    The Maasai Mara trip provided both an amazing wildlife experience combined with look at Maasai culture. The game drive was beyond belief - there were so many animals that it seemed like something out of a movie. It was hard to believe that it was real. And the hot air balloon ride over the savannah was truly one of the best experiences of my life. I will never forget sailing over the vast expanse of the Mara as the sun was rising seeing herds of zebras, elephants and giraffes grazing in the morning light. And touring a Maasai village to meet some of the Maasai members provided insight to a culture that is so different from anything that I've ever experienced. The people were so welcoming and willing to share their culture. That type of cultural learning is why I love G Adventures so much.
