The safari exceeded our expectations (which were very high).
We couldn’t have been happier with our guide, David. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. You could tell he loves what he does, as he still gets excited about great game viewing. He took us out every moment we could, which is what we wanted. We were anticipating morning and evening game drives, but as stated earlier, most of the time we were out the entire days! His knowledge of the animals and environments was fabulous and he had a great sense of humor, which made us very comfortable with him. He took pride in his work and his vehicle, washing and cleaning it whenever possible. He had a great rapport with all of the other guides and drives with whom he shared information and they shared with him. You could tell they respected him for his work.
“Excellent staff. Casey was extremely responsive in planning the trip. I had certain things I did and didn’t want to do, he tailored our experience accordingly (and with keeping our budget in mind). The trip was perfectly proportioned, mostly because of him. Our guide on the ground, Wilfred, spent 12 days with us. We couldn’t have asked for someone better. We became comfortable companions, easily sitting together in silence over long drives or telling stories during dinner. He didn’t wait for us to ask something, he anticipated our needs. When he saw we didn’t finish our lunch boxes, he asked us what we liked and didn’t like. He made sure to relay the information to the hotels and we finished out lunches going forward. He saw I had an itch to get into the Wildebeest migration. Even though it was far away and our chances of finding it could be small, he made sure it happened. The staff set everything apart, especially when we compared it to our tour companies we saw in the area.”
