Classic Journeys Africa was perfect in every way
Classic Journeys Africa assisted me with stay in Kenya. They were wonderful and perfect in every way. Mathew Jackson was holding a sign with my name as soon as I came out of customs with my luggage. He spoke English and was very professional. His vehicle was clean and bottled water was provided. He transferred me to my resort and ensured I was greeted and taken care of by the local resort staff before leaving. Matthew collected me the following morning for a tour of Nairobi that included a visit to the Giraffe Center and the Elephant Orphanage (tours that I selected). Matthew ensured I was at each tour on time and even offered to stop at a local bead store where I received a tour and was able to shop (don't miss this bead store when you are in Nairobi...local single mothers make all the bead jewelry and it's truly a wonderful place benefiting these women and their children). Matthew then ensured I was at the airport for my onward journey to Rwanda. When I came back to Nairobi on my return I was once again greeted by Mathew and transferred to another local airport hotel (that I arranged). Mathew assisted with getting me a nice room and late check out. Classic Journeys Africa appears to have all the connections to ensure a pleasant vacation in Kenya and all around Africa. I will use them again on my return to Africa. Thank you for an amazing vacation and one that was flawless because of your service and support.

The wonder of wild life, an unforgatable Safari!
Classics Journeys Africa gave us a unique experience in discovery the vast habitat of the wild animals. From day 1 our driver/guide took a particular good and interesting way of communicating with the group. We all were impressed with his driving skills and his abilities to find all the spots where the different species of animals & birds were resting. He gave us the pleasure of the eyes for a wonderful journey through the marvelous palette of the living world with beautiful sceneries. His knowledge about the species and explanations about their behavior were very much appreciated. It was a great adventure. Thank you.

Amazing week in Kenya
The staff really made us feel safe and secure from our arrival in the airport until we departed. They went out of our way to accommodate every wish and desire, organizing last minute visits to the Giraffe center and elephant orphanage on our last day back to Nairobi. Geoffrey was an awesome driver and guide for us. Our visit at Ngare Serian in Masai Mara was over the top. It was a bit beyond our budget and we were glad to spend the extra money at this very secluded, small, elegant camp.

Great safari - excellent service
We had a 6 day tour with Classic Journeys in June 2016. We visited Naivasha and Masai Mara. Classic Journeys were great in organizing the trip, our expectations were met 100%, everything worked fine, time schedule was kept without delays and we didn't have any problems. We had a Toyota 4WD Minivan. It didn't look very impressive, and was quite old, but it was very effective and reliable, and tuned out to be a very good car for us. Our guide at the safari, Geoffrey, was a fantastic guide! We couldn't have got any better. He is knowledgeable, skilled and trustworthy. His English is excellent, and he is very service minded. He is also a very nice and kind person that is easy to get along with. In Nairobi Mathew was our guide, the same things can be said about him. He is a great manager, organizer and guide. Hotels/places on safari: Sopa Lodge in Naivasha was good. Great location, nice huts, good food and service. Base camp in Talek was excellent. Very nice tents, very good location and very good food and service. The best place we stayed during our whole stay in Kenya. We also saw lots of game there. Wilderness camp in Naboisho was also excellent when it comes to tents, location and food, but we were a bit disappointed about our guide there. We had a local guide, not from Classic Journeys. We didn't see as much game there as we had expected, and felt that our guide didn't work as hard as Geoffrey to make the most out of our stay. Still good though.
In Nairobi we stayed at The Nairobi Safari Club Hotel. It was also good, comfortable with great service and excellent breakfast. Traffic in Nairobi was much worse than we had expected, and obviously limits the possibilities. Fortunately we had a good guide (Mathew) who handled this very well. You should not try to do sightseeing in Nairobi on your own.
Classical Journeys in general: Very well organized and trustworthy. I will highly recommend them to others!
Beyond exceptional
Beyond exceptional is the term i would use it to describe our trips with Classic journeys Africa.Each time they not only live up to expectations but go ahead and exceed them. Leaving us extremely excited about our trips and vacations.
Working with Classic Journeys Africa
As a travel planner it was good to work with Charles at Classic Journeys Africa as he was extremely prompt in getting back to me. Despite the time difference he was able to address all my questions and concerns very quickly. He was also very flexible when we had to make some changes even after finalizing the itinerary. I look forward to working with him and Classic Journeys Africa again.
