Amazing time in Masai Mara
I was a bit late to prepare a safari. I contacted Jane from Kenan Travel Tour and she was really reactive and helping. Everything was smooth in the organization. I had a wonderful time with the group I was in and we saw a lot of animals! Incredible!

Yes you really do need your rain coat in the Dessert.
Loved the Trip, it was everything I hoped it would be, and even more, what an experience to have rain in the Dessert, and to see all the plants and animals that only show up after the rain. Magical.
That said, when the packing list says rain coat, and you say - but I am going to the dessert - remember it can rand does rain in the dessert.....
Loved the trip, I cannot say thank you enough to the staff for everything they did for us. It just flowed flawlessly - at least to those of us on the trip.
The horses were fantastic, the riding spectacular, what more can you ask for.
in the immortal words of "The Terminator" ... "I'll be back". You don't get rides like this just anywhere.

in 11 days nothing failed, all logistics perfectly coordinated, the guides were the best.
the communications were perfect , the guides in safari lodges are very knowledgeble in wild life and nature, they were incredible.
the safari itself was unbeliveble, we could see the big five except Rynos, we saw leopards hunting impalas and bringing it up to the tree and feeding their cubs, Lions, elephants girafes, hippos, wild dogs all the wild life in Okavango delta. The landscape, the colors, the smell...
we flew over in a small plane with 6 seats, and during 45 min we didn't see any population, nothing than nature.
The lodges are very integrated in the nature and the service is very intimistic, everybody seats at one table to have breakfast, lunch and dinner.
The only thing to point out is that the lodges should be renovated as they look slightly worned out.

Memorable birding experience with Conquest Adventures
My friends and I had a great birding experience at a coastal forest in Kenya thanks to Conquest Adventures. We visited Shimba hills Reserve for a week and Charles, our tour guide was very helpful. His skills in identification of birds through sight and calls was quite admirable and we learnt a lot from him. He could also point out other animals that we came across which we really appreciated. Conquest Adventures also organised our accommodation and transport from and to the airport. They are very professional in the way they handle their clients and we would definitely recommend them and seek them again in our future trips to Kenya.

Great experience with Gerson and Omuhimba. best travel so far!
It was our first family travel to Africa, so we were looking for quality at an affordable price. Gerson and Omuhimba were absolutely stars in under-promising and over-delivering!! We had a great 14 days tour of Namibia, where we could discover the beauty of the landscape, the warmth of the people, through the high-standard, professional support of Gerson. The small incidents that are expected on such a journey were quickly and smoothly solved, sometimes even before we were aware of them. Gerson offered us a five star support during our stay, and we were able to concentrate on enjoying the time together. Thanks to his local ties and deep knowledge of the country, he was able to make us discover unknown areas and provide us with expert advice during the way. We are already dreaming about coming back!

Just the best I could ask for. From reception, accommodation, tours,..they are the real specialists.
As expected, it was a wonderful reception at the airport to start with together with my working colleagues who were visiting for the first time. All was arranged prior through easy communication with details, understandable and on point. The accommodation was classy and on point. The five days for our visit comprised of great park drives first with the National Park within the city, The Nairobi National Park. Am yet to see another park in the world only stone throw away from the city center.
Not to mention the visit to the world wonder, The Masai Mara National Reserve where our tour guide was on point on the locations. Talk of the Big Five on their natural habitat. Thanks Andrew for the great job well done!! The camp sites and lodges booked were great as we enjoyed the night born fire with the nice trilling sounds from lovely birds around for a goodnight. Not to forget the sumptuous roasted meat 'Nyama Choma'.
I will be back during the pick of the Great Wildebeest Migration......just counting!!
A great adventure with African Adventure Specialists.

A Babymoon beyond all expectations!
My husband and I both travel for a living and pride ourselves on our independence (whether we're visiting Yogyakarta, Lofoten, or even just London.) But after our plans for a Babymoon in Vietnam and Cambodia fell through due to a sudden resurgence of Zika, we found ourselves with less than a month to put together another itinerary and turned to Roho Ya Chui and Ute. While this was our first experience working with a travel agent, Ute was extremely patient and thorough, developing multiple potential itineraries based on our collective brainstorming (and we did bombard her with ideas!) Her research and advice on each of the stops was incredibly helpful and informed, which is particularly important since this year's rains would have made stays at some of our suggested destinations less than ideal. Our final route ended up based on the Victoria Falls/Botswana itinerary, but with added time at the luxurious Camelthorn Lodge in Hwange, Zimbabwe, and a stopover in Tsodilo Hills to see the cave paintings (just to add some variety to our activities.) Each lodge offered its own adventure, with its own unique character and game viewing, and Ute ensured all of our transfers were as seamless as possible. I have never traveled without first working out all my flight times, carriers, etc, but I quickly learned how luxurious it is to let someone else handle all of that! (Even in Maun, Roho Ya Chui sent someone to the airport to make sure we transferred to our international flights without a hitch.) We came for our Babymoon, thinking this would be a once-in-a-lifetime trip. While it certainly was, we now find ourselves eagerly counting down the days (/years...) until we can bring our son back to see even more. We're so very grateful to Ute for all of her patience, persistence and professionalism in making this trip happen for us!
Experience guaranteed.
Magical retreat was up the bar. My boyfriend, niece & myself are just finishing a 10-day Safari. We started off at the Aberdares through Bogoria, Naivasha, the Mara, Mombasa & finally Watamu.
The dedication to excellent and responsive service is tangible. Very experienced, client oriented and true to character is magical retreats Pamela.

Amazing Safari Tour
We booked a Bright Safari 5 day Tour and was Beyond expectation. We had a great driver, Salim, who is very experienced and really took time to answer all our questions. Spending time with him during 5 days was very pleasant. In addition, he speaks english and french very fluenty. He was able to spot the animals also in hidden places. The Lodges Chosen were also very good.
For us, first Time Safari was a great experience.

Amazing Experience
My family and I lived spectacular days in Tanzania. People treated us incredibly, caring for us and bothering to teach us all the animals of the savanna. 100% recommendable
