Wonderful experience
The communication with Roho Ya Chui was very good. They are very quickly to answer our questions and at the time you make contact via e-mail or WhatsApp they return to me. The service is the best. I don’t have any prior recomendation of that company but I confirm that they are serious and reliable. Everything was very good: the transfer, the Safari,,the lodge, the Guide. I recomend this company.

Everything went well and as agreed
It was very easy to arrange the safari, communication was quick, easy, and all questions were answered. And when the time for the safari itself arrived, everything went as planned.
As for Nottens Bush Camp itself, it's a great camp, with good rooms, good food and excellent service. But be aware that there are no electrical lights in the rooms, so they're very dark. I wish the bathrooms were more properly illuminated.

An excellent value and seamlessly run first time trip to Africa
The service offered by Roho Ya Chui and especially our point of contact, Ute, was nothing short of excellent. When we decided to visit Africa we had a rough idea of where we wanted to go, but no idea on how to get from one place to another, we also wanted to have a local expert help choose and arrange the accommodation instead of us relying on online hotel search engines. As is often the case for us when planning a trip, the parameters of what we were planning changed several times, and Ute handled all of these requests diligently and professionally, and after multiple different draft itineraries had been proposed and discussed we finally settled on a final option.
The service in country from the local agents didn’t disappoint either, we were met promptly for all transfers by reliable and courteous staff who went above and beyond in providing local knowledge and insight, allowing us to better understand and appreciate the areas we visited.
The safaris themselves were amazing, the variety and abundance of wildlife we got to see was staggering, and the high points were too many to list. Our drivers and guides were all deeply experienced, knowledgeable, fun, and most of all patient of the many questions we asked of them.
All in all the trip was memorable to a life changing degree and we can’t wait to go back to explore the continent further!

Everything went smoothly
What I appreciated the most is that Ute was always very quick to respond to my inquiries.
I was a bit worried pick-ups because I had to make changes few times due to flight schedule changes and activity I decided to include in a last minute, but there was nothing to worry about. We got picked up pretty much on time every single time.
I will recommend Roho Ya Chui to anyone. I will definitely use them again next time I plan African safari.
If I am to give my personal advise to people who are planning to visit Kruger, get an accommodation inside the park.
If your budget allows, go to a private game reserve instead of the Kruger National Park.
There were too many tourists there, which makes it very difficult to see rare animals.
We missed a leopard siting while waiting on a very long queue, and had to wait for a long time to see sleeping lions.
It was crazy.
I had so much better experience at Sabi Sands.

Roho exceeded our expectations with our Safari, from the smooth running to the quality of the guides
Ute was super helpful and incredibly professional and honest in helping us plan and book our safari to meet our travel schedule and budget.
Our guides were very good and punctual, we saw the most incredible animal sightings and were able to completely relax and enjoy the safari. I would highly recommend Roho and Ute and I look forward to booking our next African adventure with them.

5-star perfectly planned safari in South Africa and Botswana!
From our first email communications planning our family's first ever safari in South Africa and Botswana to helping locate a misplaced lens rental and its return, Ute's expertise and advice were impeccable! Ute planned the perfect safari for our family, and the intimate lodges and safari tours more than exceeded our expectations! The lodges were absolutely amazing. Food was delicious, even catering to one in our party with serious food allergies. The lodge staff and guides went out of their way to ensure that our safari experience was most memorable. Ute responded promptly to our inquiries and was extremely helpful! Our next safari will definitely be with Roho Ya Chui! Highly recommend Ute and Roho Ya Chui!

Another amazing experience designed by Roho Ya Chui
This was our second flawless vacation designed by Roho Ya Chui. Ute always goes above and beyond to make sure the trip exceeds all expectations. The first trip we didn't know what to expect but for this vacation our expectations were very high and even then they were exceeded. Every transfer, every detail, every celebration was carefully mapped out and implemented. Wow, what a great time. AndBeyond was our safari provider and they were also 200%. Ute did a great job mixing the accommodations so we experienced all types of lodging. Although they were all different they were also all fantastic. Luxury Pure. So many fantastic memories. We will for sure use Ute at Roho Ya Chui and AndBeyond again and again. We can't wait to see where the next trip takes us.

Great Sambia tour, top organisation, well planned
Ute from Roho Ya Chui organized a trip for my father and me to Zambia. This included all transfers in Zambia and the accomodations - which all turned out great. Communications with Ute were always were fast, friendly and professional. She took care of all our wishes, and we had a wonderful trip. We had a nice Lodge in Lower Zambesi (Kanyemba) and the probably best camp in South Luangwa (Flatdogs) - both with very good and professional guides. As for transfers we did road transfer by car, 20 passengers flight by plane (ProFlight) and 2 passenger flight in a tiny plane - and were kept very safe in all of them.
For my next trip i will contact Ute again and recommend Roho Ya Chui to everyone who would like to visit there as well.

Seamless operations, perfectly planned trip!
Everything exceeded expectations. This was our first trip to Africa and Ute did an amazing job planning it. The communication was very easy and she was available for any questions we had. All the transport for the activities and between lodges was extremely smooth and punctual. We loved the lodges and the activities Ute booked for us, in particular devil's pool in Victoria Falls, Bakwena lodge in Chobe, and Machaba camp in Khwai. Our guide at Machaba Camp, Moreri, was terrific. Our drives with him were the highlight of our trip. We also really enjoyed the mokoro activity at Machaba. We highly recommend Ute and the itinerary she booked for us. Thank you!
Very helpful with bookings. The safari tour itself was superb, all arrangements and transfers worked
Much better than expected. Lodgings were superb and the way the safari was organised worked really well.
Would highly recommend this tour to anyone and you will have a great experience
