Noel is amazing! He’s very knowledgeable about the wildlife and very friendly. We had a blast with him. He heard about a leopard being down the hill from the lodge and found us after lunch to see if we wanted to go try to find it. We were so excited because we had yet to see one so of course we said yes. Just thinking that would interest us made us happy and we were able to see the leopard. We saw all The Big 5. We were strangers when we met and friends when we left, we enjoyed learning about his life and family.
“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”
