Professional excellence, attentive to detail, reliable, always executes the trip we hoped for & more
Compass Odyssey - Darren and Kate - are excellent, in the truest sense of the word. We plan through them for all our safaris and they never let us down. I’ve continued to recommend them to fellow travelers. They value a quality experience, ethical travel, are fast communicators, are understanding and flexible. This time, on our trip to Kenya, we saw all the animals we wanted to see, had amazing food, some really wonderful guides, and overall had a wonderful time w/ memories that will last a lifetime.

Such a pleasure to deal with, on every possible level.
This was our fourth safari (fifth trip) with Compass Odyssey (CO). As usual, Darren and Kate did not disappoint.
Honesty; integrity; reliability; responsiveness; patience; knowledge; expertise; kindness; safety; cost effectiveness; attention to detail… I could go on and on; but, in essence, excellence is what characterizes them, and this is why we keep going back.
This was a particularly tricky safari to organize for various reasons. Nevertheless, CO guided us through the process, ever mindful of our wants and needs, with zero pressure to eventually travel.
You cannot go wrong with CO. We believe they are the best.
This safari was for myself, my adult daughter and one of her friends. The experience was tailored to suit us perfectly. We loved the itinerary, the camps, the guides, and of course the ANIMALS, including GIZA the black leopard!
Describe your dream to CO, and they will make it come true!
Thank you so much, Darren and Kate. We have so many new wonderful memories to daydream about, thanks to you and your team.
You can expect to hear from us for our next adventure in the foreseeable future!
Well designed broad set of experiences with high level of customer service
Compass Odyssey designed and executed a 16 day trip for us that included 4 countries and various experiences including, but also beyond safaris. Communication during the planning phase was easy and smooth despite a 9 hour time zone difference. From an execution perspective, Compass’s communication prepared us for what to pack, what to consider regarding vaccine/malaria meds, how immigration/customs would work, etc. Transit across the countries was smooth as the team was waiting for us at each airport and the instructions of what to expect upon crossing borders was clear ahead of travel, allowing us to handle some aspects ahead of time to expedite. The variety of activities was well thought out and matched our preferred cadence very well. The places that we stayed all exceeded our expectations, each being very customer focused and having unique qualities. More than anything, the local guides and safari guides were exceptional! They got to know us and our preferences quickly and both provided recommendations and experiences that enhanced our trip. If you want an incredibly memorable experience, work with Compass Odyssey!

They took care us really well the minuit we landed in Namibia until our departure
We were treated like visiting family. They took care of everthing so you don’t have to think of the whole trip. Amazing hospitality.
Helpful, knowlegable, and a nice guy!
We had a great experience with Compass Odyssey on our Father-Daughter trip in June 2026. The most important thing to convey about the trip is that everthing Compass Odyssey committed to us happened exactly as they said it would. Every pick-up, every transfer, every accomodation, every flight, and every experience was flawless. Not a single bit of unwanted drama in the whole trip.
We were especially appreciative of the pre-planning help Compass Odyssey provided as we had some non-standard requirements that made our itenerary a bit complicated. However, they listened to our requests and responded with options that made the whole process easier than we had a right to expect.
Highly recommend Compass Odyssey for any African Adventure.
