A great destination for a day-trip from Nairobi, if only for a visit to the gorge.
A local friend of a friend drove us to the park; the traffic was very slow on the day so we didn't get much time to go around, but the walk in the gorge was well worth it. It demanded some scrambling on rocks and the local ranger was really good at keeping us safe. Walking between the gorge walls with volcanic glass on the ground was quite an experience, so were the hot springs seeping from the rock. We did not get to see much wildlife except vervet monkeys and some giraffe but friends who visited the day before saw baboons and more.

A beautiful connection between people, wildlife and nature. Botswana is a well protected jewel!
The travel was well organized and all transitions went smooth and on time. The wildlife is stunning so is the nature. The guides were all extremely knowledgeable. Highlight was the Chobe National Park, during dry season a large variety of animals come together. We loved the boat tour. After that we flew into the Okavango Delta, very different experience the vegetation is different and the jeeps are allowed to leave the tracks and go deep into the bush to trace down cats. We loved it.My personal highlight was the walking Safari as it's the missing piece between game viewing and the story on nature and it's symbiosis. The stories were jaw dropping and teach you respect and admiration for Mother Nature and it's natural balance.

Unforgettable Experience!
This company is absolutely amazing and has gained my absolute trust! It exceeded my expectations in delivering way more than what was hired. The guides were really polite and very professional. The accommodations during the safari were excellent! Loth gave me an excellent support, even through WhatsApp, and responded to my queries very promptly. Look forward to working with them again and definately reccommend Ilmaasai for any safaris in Tanzania.

Great trip to Mikumi
This July I went with Joseph to Mikumi and it definitely exceeded my expectations. The trip was well arranged and we all had a great time and enjoyed the park. Worth it do it again.

A most memorable, enjoyable, informative, happy and fun experience
Firstly my experience in booking our tour directly with Blessing of Africa Zim, was not only straightforward but he was very accommodating to our tight time frame. From the outset the logistics required to get us from our hotel and across the border to Botswana to meet up with other clients and our tour driver was spot on and similarly on our return. Over our three day camping trip we had two fantastic river safaris on the incredible Chobe river where elephants, hippo, buffalo and crocodile were in abundance as well as many more animals and birds. We had four truck safaris where our excellent guide, Captain, was an encyclopaedia of knowledge and information and put himself out to find us the best wild game and the best viewpoints. Amongst his highlights were a pride of 18 lions, fourteen of which walked right in front of our vehicle and a solitary leopard. He was a most kind and considerate guide. The overnight camp staff fed us extremely well and all the tents and equipment were first class. As well as the excellent cuisine and company round the camp fire a hot bush shower was also a novel and cleansing experience. The whole trip will remain the highlight to our visit to Southern Africa.

Ute and Roho Ya Chui are the very best!!
This was our fifth trip to Africa. We have booked with different operators, until we heard of Roho Ya Chui when planning our trip to Victoria Falls and Botswana last year. Our trip last year was absolutely wonderful, so we didn't even consider booking with another agent when we started planning our trip to South Africa this year. Ute was able to recommend the very best camps/lodges for our stay and I must say this has been our very best trip to Africa. It exceeded all our expectations. All the accommodations were wonderful, excellent guides, and food! We are already considering our next trip with Roho Ya Chui as soon as we are able to save up a bit! Ute is extremely responsive which I love. She will respond almost immediately to any queries I have. When we were able to add 3 extra nights to our trip at the very last minute, she made wonderful recommendations and was able to book one of the camps I had just hear about and ended up being are very favorite! She's flexible and offers different options to fit each budget. She's extremely organized. The electronic itinerary on Trip Plans was great. No need to refer to print outs when we could see everything on our iPhone or iPad. I highly recommend Roho Ya Chui for any safaris you have planned!!
