Best vacation ever
5/5

We were late in booking our safari. As I travel several times a year to Africa, mostly with one month - or less - notice, it didn't occur to me that many (most?) people plan their safari months in advance.

After some back and forth with Ute Sonnenberg - and being on a "waiting list" - we spent six days/nights on safari in and around Kruger National Park in South Africa. Communication/updates were frequent and efficient and as indicated above, my wife and I who have traveled the world agree that this was the best trip ever. It was not our first safari, but it seemed that everything was hand picked and that we were the center of attention.

The highlight were the wild dogs and the leopards. But then there was the 18 member lion pride... and soo much more

Very professional, personal and pleasant throughout
5/5

Our experience with Roho Ya Chui was extremely positive and exceeded our expectations. Our communication was with Ms. Ute Sonnenberg who was very responsive from the start and helped us plan the vacation experience we were looking for from A to Z, and everything worked very smoothly and according to plan. The safari tour itself was an unforgettable experience. We would definitely recommend Roho Ya Chui to all our friends.

Another Flawless Trip
5/5

This was our second trip with Roho Ya Chui and hopefully won't be our last. We were always well informed about our trip from the planning through the end of our trip. Her accommodation recommendations were exactly what we wanted and she worked with us in planning to make sure that we had the experience we expected. We had several locations for our travel in Tanzania and Kenya and the drivers and in country flights were timely. At the end of our time in Tanzania, we were met by a driver who expertly guided us through immigration in Kenya and onto our flight to Kichwa Tembo. Our driver from the local Nairobi airport to the international airport back to the U.S. was an expert in getting us through the confusing Nairobi traffic. All of our safari expectations were met and especially exceeded at Kichwa Tembo. Anyone thinking of an African Safari should definitely contact Roho Ya Chui.

Loved our Experience
5/5

I was a little nervous initially of using an agent from a foreign country (I am in USA). But, Royo Ya Chui - Ute took good care of us. Ute provided us with some good options for lodging in Victoria Falls and some safari camps in Hwange. Every detail of the itinerary was performed to perfection. From beginning to end, it was easy to enjoy our African experience.

Excellent communication and service with Royo ya Chui
5/5

I worked with Royo Ya Chui to book a tented camp safari at Beyond Kichwa Tembo. Ute at Royo Ya Chui was extremely easy to work with and provided excellent communication through the process. Our stay at Kichwa Tembo was one of our best vacation experiences to date. The camp pays great attention to all details to ensure you have a wonderful stay. The lodging, food, safari drivers, are all top notch. You will not be disappointed if you book a safari at &Beyond with Royo Ya Chui.

Ute and Roho Ya Chui are the very best!!
5/5

This was our fifth trip to Africa. We have booked with different operators, until we heard of Roho Ya Chui when planning our trip to Victoria Falls and Botswana last year. Our trip last year was absolutely wonderful, so we didn't even consider booking with another agent when we started planning our trip to South Africa this year. Ute was able to recommend the very best camps/lodges for our stay and I must say this has been our very best trip to Africa. It exceeded all our expectations. All the accommodations were wonderful, excellent guides, and food! We are already considering our next trip with Roho Ya Chui as soon as we are able to save up a bit! Ute is extremely responsive which I love. She will respond almost immediately to any queries I have. When we were able to add 3 extra nights to our trip at the very last minute, she made wonderful recommendations and was able to book one of the camps I had just hear about and ended up being are very favorite! She's flexible and offers different options to fit each budget. She's extremely organized. The electronic itinerary on Trip Plans was great. No need to refer to print outs when we could see everything on our iPhone or iPad. I highly recommend Roho Ya Chui for any safaris you have planned!!

Agent Ute Sonnenberg very responsive/pleasant to deal with/knowledgeable or found out info promptly
5/5

Flexible re communication across time zone difference to USA. Prompt responses both prior to trip and while on trip. Totally seamless transfers and tour arrangements- excellent companies chosen. (So different from all the troubles we had with another agency on a different trip to Brazil/Argentina). Safari experience amazing- Highly recommend kirkmans kamp. Agent Ute Sonnenberg tailored trip to meet my exact requests. If she didn't know something, she researched it and got the answer. Would absolutely recommend Ute and Roho Ya Chui.

Experience and professionalism; punctuality, accuracy, friendly; expert travel advice; exceptional!
5/5

From start to finish, this was the best travel experience I have had (and I've been to 63 countries and on two previous African safaris). Communication via e-mail was virtually instantaneous and everything on the safari was delivered exactly as arranged for. Not to mention, the safari itself was superb! Ute at Roho Ya Chui is an absolutely amazing, organized, and dedicated professional who truly made this safari the wonderful expedition that it was. All I can say is, thank-you Ute!
