Always a great experience and love the support!
Off to Africa organized our honeymoon on Benguerra Island in Mozambique. It all ran very smoothly and it was a great recommendation - we had a lovely time there! They have booked several transfers and hotel bookings for us in Zimbabwe too, no hitches, always a pleasure, and lots of local knowledge.

Wonderful Kenya trip thanks to 'Chalo Africa'
We just had a wonderful Safari trip in Kenya thanks to Chalo Africa team. We are extremely happy with all the help Chalo Africa provided in planning our itinerary, making sure that lodges/camps could meet our special food requirements, ensuring that we had a knowledgeable and helpful local guide/driver (Charles O..) to take us around from the time we landed in Kenya to the time we left. It was also nice that Chalo Africa set up a What’sapp group so we can communicate with Chalo Africa team and our family in the US while we were on the trip.
Sangeeta in the Chalo Africa USA office was very helpful from the planning stage to the time we were back from the actual trip. We changed the itinerary a few times and she patiently suggested different options and answered all our queries. Chalo Africa provided good details of what we will see/visit each day, information for Kenya VISA and vaccination requirements and suggestion on what to bring with us for the trip. While on the trip, the local Chalo Africa office person did call us to make sure everything was okay.

Four go wild on African adventure and a wonderful time had by all.
This was a very well organised tour from start to finish and our Guide Twaha had thought of everything. The hotel recommendations were ideal. We were picked up from Cassia Lodge in Kampala with outstanding views over the city and taken to our fabulous upgraded hotel The Pakuba Lodge with its ideal location within the park. The tour was beyond my expectations. We started with a trip to the rhino sanctuary which was awesome, visited Murchison falls up close, enjoyed game drives, a river cruise and chimpanzee trek. Meals, snacks and water were included. Twaha seemed to find genuine pleasure in our delight at the wonders that we experienced and was very knowledgeable. His spoken English was very good and he spent mealtimes with him getting to know each other better. All in all I couldn't recommend the trip enough.

Sibu is the best guide!!
Everything was very good! The safari, the hotel, and especially our guide. The price is high still. But we spend a very nice time!

Absolutely perfect!
Going on a safari in Africa is a new experience for us. We approached it with some trepidation, and chose the safari operator based on reviews on the internet. It worked out so well, that we are still in the afterglow of the wonderful experience with The Spirit Of Kenya! Communication was swift, courteous, professional and absolutely clear. If there ever is a company which fulfilled every one of their promises, this is it. We were an hour late in arriving at Nairobi. We were met by a smiling Moses and Jackson, and they set the tone for the great days ahead - smiling, polite, helpful, professional. We were picked up from the hotel as scheduled, absolutely no delay. Charles was our driver and guide for the next five days. Courteous, knowledgeable, cheerful and very helpful. He has sharp eyes and showed us all the wonderful wildilife in Hell's Gate, Lake Naivasha and the incredible Masai Mara.
Spirit of Kenya took care of the trip from end to end. All the hotels they recommended were very good. Food was arranged on the safari and even on the return drive to Nairobi which is a very thoughtful touch which places them right in the seven star category. I cannot praise them enough. Thank you Spirit of Kenya for a really wonderful trip.

The Trip of a Lifetime
I've been dreaming of a trip to Africa since I was a child, with great expectations, and I was not disappointed.
From the very first email to Pembury Tours, everything was handled promptly and completely. Our personal tour consultant, Tammy Harding, patiently answered every question we asked, researched areas we were interested in and provided us with the confidence to move forward with the trip. Our stays at the Sanctuary Camps in Botswana and Zambia were exceptional, from the knowledgeable guides, to the camp staff, to the daily drives and the outstanding meals. And, each time we moved from one camp to the next, friendly and competent employees were there to take and receive us. Everything went off without a hitch. This indeed was my trip of a lifetime! Many thanks to Pembury Tours and Tammy.
