Will continue to recommend The Luxury Safari Company
I recently returned from a second trip organised by this great company, this time to the incredible coastline of Kenya, staying in beautiful locations and accommodation. As with my first trip, The Luxury Safari Company was very efficient and helpful with all aspects of the trip and I really hope to be able to do another trip before long.

An excellent experience planned by LS Company during which all arrangements were exactly as planned.
The LS Company could not be more helpful. The planning took account of all our wishes and they were executed as planned from hotel, safari, car rental, internal flights and driving instructions which were so helpful. Due to the flight delay from Paris (no blame to the LS Company) and very late arrival at Tambo (OR) airport, LS made immediate alternative hotel arrangements which at 3 a.m was exceedingly thoughtful. Through out the holiday LS's personal attention during the trip was very evident and one felt that we were always in strong hands to resolve any issue. We have travelled many times with various Travel Companies and I have no hesitation in writing that the Luxury Safari Company is at the very top. Rose Hipwood was quite excellent in all respects-nothing was too much for her to assist. Overall a 5* holiday provided by a first rate Travel Company.

Rose Did It Again!
You really did it this time Rose! We had an amazing time from seeing two very small buffalo calves being rescued by Rangers from a watering hole to being chased by a very cross elephant! Firsts in both cases and the highlight of our holiday!!
Everything ran like clockwork as per usual! We have done quite a few safari's now with Rose and wouldn't dream of booking with anyone else!!!!!!

Amazing service &amazing trip
The service received from Rose at the Luxury Safari Company was absolutely brilliant. Really useful advice was given in the initial email communications. Also really useful literature was sent when booking was made and also prior to the trip. The trip to Nottens Bush Camp was fantastic. If you are at all interested in seeing animals in their natural environment this is without doubt the place to be and the people to see it with. Could not find any fault with the operator or the safari itself. I am so glad I found Rose through a review I read on trip advisor. Transfer from the airport, accommodation, facilities & service were all first class and all at a decent price.

Beyond Expectations
From our first communication with Rose, we knew we'd found the right person to help us plan our long-anticipated safari trip to celebrate our retirement. After doing our preliminary research, we contacted a number of agencies - describing the places we were thinking of going, the type of experiences we hoped to have, and the kind of accommodation we would prefer. Most agencies replied with a set itinerary that they often use, but not Rose -- her suggested itinerary was totally customized, the only one that really reflected our preferences. It was clear that Rose listens to her clients, and has their needs at the forefront. As we finalized our plans, Rose responded quickly and fully to all our questions and requests. We couldn't have asked for a more helpful and knowledgeable agent -- Rose definitely knows Africa!
Our safari trip included gorilla trekking in Rwanda, then luxury safari camping in the Serengeti, at Ngorongoro, and in Tarangire, ending off with a beach stay on Zanzibar. The arrangements that Rose had made were perfect -- everything went very smoothly. We were met at each destination by a guide, and each of them was knowledgeable and personable. The accommodations were top-notch, and the service was great -- it seemed that everyone was intent on making our trip memorable. And if that wasn't enough ... the wildlife was incredible! We had close encounters with more animals than we could have ever imagined -- from the moving experience of sitting beside the gorillas to the awesome spectacle of being in the middle of the migration, --- with cheetahs, lions, leopard, rhinos, elephants and giraffes, and many more!
We had been planning and looking forward to this trip for many years, and we had built up great expectations. Happily, it exceeded them -- thanks in large part to Rose and The Luxury Safari Company.

An awesome 10 day self-drive camping safari in Northern Namibia superbly organised by Rose!
A massive thank you to Rose and her team who organised an awesome trip to Namibia for L and I. Everything ran like clockwork and we had such fun exploring the country and camping along the way. I highly recommend this type of trip to anyone with a strong sense of adventure and independence. The country is extremely safe, we saw some absolutely stunning scenery, tonnes of wildlife and the weather was perfect. We covered over 1,900km in 10 days and our land cruiser never faltered. Of note, we were overjoyed to be able to listen to lion roaring all round our campsite on three of the nights. We were also lucky enough to see wild dog as well as a lot of lion and cheetah. I would return to Namibia in a heartbeat. Thank you Rose! x
Fantastic service
Great knowledge of local hotels, restaurants and things to do and able to get great deals. Always available to help with ideas and planning. All suggestions were fantastic. Would love to do it all again.
