- ALAdina· November 16th, 2019Excellent trip. Very knowledgeable guide, the cook Kevin prepared special food for me since I don’t eat red meat or pork and the driver Shimoni has an eagle eye for spotting animals. Lots of early starts and long drives, setting up and breaking down tents, but as they say, “TIA” (this is Africa). Truly a trip of a lifetime!Show moreTrip date: October 2019

- BLBENG· March 31st, 2018The transportation truck should be fitted with better suspensions. It was a bone shaker on rough dirt-road.
