Wilfred was extremely knowledge and we came home having learned so much about the wildlife and the parks. I loved that he would let us just sit and watch the lion prides and elephant herds. These moments are what were truly special – just being able to observe these beautiful animals in their natural habitat. He knew that I loved the elephants, so would always stop so that we could capture our photos. It was my husband’s birthday, and Wilfred went above and beyond to arrange a cake and birthday song during dinner, and caught it all on video for us – it was so special. Going on a safari has been a dream of mine since high school, and I have always had a love of African culture, so this was an amazing experience, to say the least.
“What an amazing family experience. From the moment Willy picked us up at the airport to the moment he dropped us off we felt right at home. It’s hard to put into words the experience because it was truly life changing. You’d expect that we would say seeing lions (and boy did Willy the lion whisperer know how to find lions!) was the highlight. Don’t get me wrong that was wild! But our connection with Willy and doing things like visiting an orphanage and going to his house for a typical African dinner were outstanding. To have a little glimmer of how people in another country and culture live is to forage a lasting connection. We cried when we had to part with Willy because he had become family to us”
