The game drives. Our whole point in going to Africa was seeing wildlife close up, and it was abundant. Both the Porini Camps on their private conservancies, and the Masai Mara National Preserve offered spectacular game viewing. We couldn't have asked for more.
(more)Most memorable? Following the leopard going through the thick reeds of the dried riverbed... Being in the very middle of the 400 buffalos’ herd moving to another grazing field... Two gracious cheetah males crossing the tar road...

It was all fantastic. Of course one of the highlights was coming face to face with the beautiful mountain gorilla. (more)
There were many memorable parts including singing and dancing with the Masai, trying to comprehend the sheer number of flamingos at Lake Nakuru, watching the vultures tear apart the carcass of a wildebeest and having a barbeque with the Masai. (more)
If you want adventure and excitement and an experience to remember forever then you will love it. (more)
Hiking to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro was a memorable (and, on summit day, very challenging) accomplishment. In the Serengeti we saw three male lions attempt to hunt a hartebeest, which was amazing. (more)
The most amazing vacation I have ever had. Like staying in 5* hotels but only better. Can't wait to go back...Most memorable was having elephants feed right outside our camp, visiting a traditional Maasai Village and watching a lion chase a Zebra on a night drive. (more)
Thanda Game reserve has to be the most memorable although it was hard to pick a specific part of it. It was fantastic and we couldn't have been treated better or had a more pleasant experience ... we will be back. (more)
Working with people who are dedicated, informed and enthusiastic about conservation in a practical and realistic way. And of course, seeing the wildlife as they are meant to be....This vacation was a life changing experience and will affect what I do next in my career and attitude to conservation.

Excellent...All was thoroughly memorable, but probably the but Africat and Etosha were both superb (more)The complete Namibian experience was really fantastic. I have been on 2 previous safaris, but this was certainly the best! (more)Excellent. As a family experience it could not be beaten. The guides and staff were excellent and made our vacation extremely informative and fun.

I felt this vacation was a win-win way of supporting African people. We got to see one of the most beautiful countries on earth and gained an insight into Kenyan culture, the local people gained employment and an incentive to protect the game life. (more)
The most memorable part of the vacation was the private walks with the Masaai and night drives in the Ol Kinyei Conservancy where we saw lions hunting & mating, a leopard on a stroll, porcupines, springhares, hyenas, etc. (more)Most memorbale was almost walking into a zebra on my way to the toilet one night! The camping was challenging for me, but it was worth it to hear animals at night. 5 stars. (more)
The trip surpassed our expectations tenfold. In our wildest dreams we couldn't contemplate or imagine the experience we would or could hope to achieve on this trip. It was amazing from beginning to end. (more)When we descended into the rift valley, we came across a family of nine Giraffes. I had not been to Africa before, and this was the moment that it sunk in what I was about to experience. (more)We were really excited to see the Ethiopian wolf! Bisangari lodge was beautiful... watching the sunset over the lake, watching the sea eagles and pied kingfishers fish and playing cards with our guides in the tree bar. (more)A very memorable trip in a beautiful country. The Ugandan people are very welcoming and the wildlife is spectacular.
(more)A brilliant Tuesday in the Masai Mara, a humbling view of other cultures, meeting wonderful people almost wherever we went...Fabulous, exceeded my expectations by a mile.
