    This tour was an amazing adventure. We were blessed to see the BigFive in all of their natural environments. The giant crocodiles, the carnage at the river’s crossing from the great migration along with the beauty of Mother Africa in all her glory! This trip is a must! You will not be disappointed!!

    Our Kenya Safari with Holiday Destinations was excellent!! George, our driver and Emmanuel, our guide provided lots of information and ensured we maximized our time on our game drives. The Sarova Game lodges we stayed in were excellent, including the accommodations, food and service. It was a once in a lifetime trip and we couldn’t have asked for anything better!
