South African Honeymoon
We had some pretty high expectations for our honeymoon, and Roho Ya Chui went above and beyond to make our trip amazing. Our agent was Ute, and she put together a perfect itinerary. We wanted to make a few modifications and she was very attentive and helpful to work with. We were able to do and see everything that we wanted and the itinerary had everything planned out perfectly. If we were to go on another safari, we would definitely work through Roho Ya Chui.

Well organised, fantastic experiences and the big 5!
Roho Ya Chui were fantastic in organising a bespoke Sabi Sands and Kruger NP tour which was tailored to fit my requirements. Ute was great in communicating and organising all the tours and accommodation - I did not need to worry about a thing. The safari experience was amazing. I love doing amateur photography - I was able to get some fantastic shots of the big 5 and a plethora of other game. The guides were extremely knowledgeable and were able to get to some great spots. All in all - it was a fantastic experience!

We had excellent expierence with Roho Ya Chui (more than five star - seven star )
Ute, as always did more than her best to get us accomodation at Londolozi after very short notice.
We had a wonderful stay at SABIE SABIE BUSH LODGE on the 28th, my birthday. Ute made sure that they take notice of it and for the first time in my life I had an unforgettable birthday in te bush. Wild dogs, abeatiful leopard and her cub as a present and to fullfill my day Louis and I was special treated at dinner. We had champagne and a birthday cake specially baked for me. The staff were really great. Thanks to the management and the rest of the team.
At Londolozi we had a warm welcome home back. Garrit, the manager of Fonders camp and his team are very special. They went out their way to let everyone feel at home. While on our bush drive with James as our ranger (excellent) we were suprised with a real colonial bush sundowner treat. What a treat, it was so special and all the tourists of founders enjoyed it so much.
As always Londolozi s the one and only. We had a wonderful two days stay. Nice company on the vehicle
and the rest is history.
We will go to Londolozi in 2015 again for sure.

Roho Ya Chui provided exceptional advice and service in tailoring the perfect safari experience
Prompt, informative, helpful and friendly. Roho Ya Chui met our all our specific needs for information and a high level of detail to help us plan and understand our safari choices. Our flip-flopping between lodging choices was met with patience and understanding. Provided helpful travel options between camps. Most of all provided priceless on-the-ground information to ensure that we made the right choices for us. Was a real joy to work with and strongly recommend Roho Ya Chui as your agent for planning an African experience.

The most incredbile African Safari
We had the good fortune to find this amazing company on Safaribookings.com, and I feel so glad that we traveled with their expert planning. The very best part was the entire trip was customized to our exact preferences, including travel dates, lodge choices and activities planned. We enjoyed seeing both Kruger Park, and Pilanesberg Park as they were both filled with so many species of animals. We would highly recommend both the lodges we stayed at as well:Hippo Hollow Estates, and Bakuabung Lodge. A highlight of our trip was our safari guide, Muzzi. He made our trip extra special with his animal spotting expertise and good humor throughout our travels with him. This company is extremely professional and as a customer you will always feel safe and well cared for! We can't wait to return with them.

Very professional and flexible safari operator with contacts to the very best lodges.
The communication has been great through the entire process, always quick and good replies to our mails. We were very impressed with all the information provided before hand and everything has lived up to our expectations. Our stay at kirkmans camp were extremely pleasant. Great location, great accomodation, great food and staff, and not the least amazing safari-experience. Our guide was very professional and knew so much about the wildlife! We also had a good stay at the ngala lodge but felt it was a little bit less intimate and personal primarily because of its bigger size. The staff also seemed less engaged, but still great accomodation, great food and amazing wildlife experience. All transfers went as planned so it was easy for us to just relax and enjoy!

Our trip was flawless in every way with diverse experiences from five star safari to tent camping
Communications were timely and very detailed. The service from our initial email contact until the first airport pickup was impeccable. The trip lived up to our expectations and more. Our tour was a mix of a five star private game reserve, to a quiet and upscale riverfront lodging, to tent camping, ending with a stay in a Leading Hotels of the World in Cape Town. We experienced absolutely no problems in services provided from various transportation companies, being met timely, escorted through various customs offices and even a trip by small boat across the river from Zambia to Botswana. We had individual service in all cases and never had to wait for a connecting driver from country to country. I don't know how it all worked out but obviously the planning by Roho Ya Chui made it all come together.

Family Safari Extravaganza
At first we were a little apprehensive booking such an expensive holiday over the Internet but Ute was responsive and knowledgable and gave us confidence things would go to plan.
We chose three safari experiences, all with And Beyond including Ngala, Chobe Under Canvas and Xudum lodge in the Okavango Delta. We separated Ngala and Chobe with a short stay at the Royal Livingstone Hotel in Zambia which was well worth the stay, a little qwerky, old worldy and had great access to the Victoria Falls.
Each safari park gave a different experience, Ngala with its variety of animals (we saw the magnificent 7 within 2 days) and the real benefits of a private park, Chobe with the sheer numbers of wildlife, and the Xudum with its variety supplementing drives with boat trips and traditional "mekoro" canoe outings.
And Beyond impressed with its quality service and attention to detail, well worth the money paid.
All in all a great trip we will all remember for the rest of our lives.

Everyday was Absolutely Awesome!
Ute Sonnenberg from Roho Ya Chui is amazing! Each and every day of our trip was awesome.
The airport pickups/transfers were on time, courteous, and professional.
The accommodations were in prime locations, and were absolutely gorgeous with great staff.
The activities that she helped us plan were incredible. Each of our activities was booked with a top-notch operator. Our expectations were blown away.
If you're thinking of going on a safari to Africa, want to explore Cape Town, or have always wanted to visit Victoria Falls - do yourself a favor and book it through Ute Sonnenberg at Roho Ya Chui.
This trip couldn't have gone smoother.
We couldn't be happier.
Seriously... stop reading this, and book your trip!
