Review of Raymond
Ray is an excellent guide, wanting to give us the Safari we want. Attentive to our interests from animals to birds to photography. Observant when we wanted to linger for more photos. He also had the right mix of birds for us. We wanted to see birds as a secondary objective and Ray sensed that we were not ornithologists and didn’t need every bird identified but just some of the larger or more colorful ones.
On my birthday Ray talked with the cook at camp and arranged for birthday cake to be the dessert of the evening. The staff as they usually do began dancing and singing throughout the dining area carrying a cake. They came to our table and sang “happy birthday.” That’s going out of his way for guests. A most memorable birthday for sure.
“I felt like I made the right choice! I wanted a company that had its own guides and vehicles and didn’t subcontract out. That made a difference, because our guide was experienced and invested in our trip. Everything was well organized and exceeded my expectations. I felt that there was attention to detail and we always felt comfortable and safe.”
