The tour was well organized and the tour guide was knowledgeable and attentive to every need. This was my first time to East Africa and a little nervous about what to expect. I was pleased that all the arrangements went smoothly and I came home with 1700 photos that will be memories for life.

I don't think we could have been happier with Mr Godfrey as our guide! Mr Godfrey is extremely knowledgeable and really cares about wildlife. Thanks to his in-depth understanding of local fauna we got to see much more than other tourists we met. Throughout our 3 day safari trip he ensured we were safe and comfortable at all times. If we come back to see another park, we will call Mr Godfrey straight away.
