    The itinerary was perfect and the guide/driver/cook were excellent The only thing I would change is the visit to the Masiii village. I felt it was too dirty and it was sad to see the kids wirh eyes falling their it would not get open

    Great tour - not only did we have a fantastic time on Safari and get to see the Big 5 but our cook (Malinga), driver (Steve) and guide (Leah) were fantastic. They went over and beyond to help us see so many animals, were patient when we had any issues, and ensured I could eat all the meals (I can't have dairy or gluten). All in all a great trip for the cost. Although be warned this is 100% a rough and tough camping trip - expect zero luxury!

    It was a wonderful trip. We were incredibly lucky with our tour leader, Aaron, who run the whole thing very smoothly. The itinerary was very interesting and thought-through so that it wasn’t too tiring. The lodges were were very nice and the people we met were very friendly. We visited some wonderful places and overall it was an unforgettable experience.
