The attention to detail and accuracy of the agenda was perfect.
I chose Rochar Africa Expeditions based purely on google searches and then following up and reading reviews. This is sometimes problematic as I didn't have a personal connection or referral. With that said, I can recommend this tour company with the utmost confidence. We were a family of 4 with two younger children (10 and 6 year old girls). The experience was amazing for everyone. My girls were extremely happy with the food, accommodations, jeep/driver and the most of all the sites.
Our agenda went through about 10 revisions until we settled in on the key things. Through that process, Phinorah was open and helpful to explain and deliver what we as a family were looking for.

Once in a Lifetime
We are already planning our next trip - that is how unbelievably incredible it was. From getting off the plane we were taken care of by Philomena and Sam. They accommodated our every need and they were especially considerate and wonderful with our 14month old. Philomena, what a gem of a person. We needed help with visas last minute (our parent brain mush just let it slip) she sorted us out in less than 24hours. I landed and needed a hospital for our baby, she called around and found the right place that we needed to go. I had so much guilt about being difficult guests and she just smiled and put me at ease with her kind words! Her efforts for us on a Saturday in the middle of Niarobi, I was blown away and so grateful for her.
For me Kenya was a bucket list destination and man it didn’t disappoint - it was unforgettable and it was down to the people who made it happen. When you are in a car allll day, you really get to know the person guiding you. We got to know Sam and we adore him! His wealth of knowledge and his eagle eyes for spotting animals is incredible. His kindness, banter and ability to be comfortable in silence is our kind of company. He told us at the start of the trip that we would see lion everyday, coming from South Africa and visiting the Kruger my whole life I thought that this was optimistic but Sam was true to his word. Everyday we saw cats, multiple prides in a day. We were only there for 4 days and I saw more in that time than my entire life going to the Kruger - I was blown away. We saw absolutely everything and had magnificent moments where we were the only vehicle sitting with animals. When we return we will go with Sam again. He is truly the BEST! And if you have small children - this man looks out for them as if they are his own. He catered his driving to our little one, stopped whenever we needed too, soothed her when she cried and called her the strongest girl in the world. His patience with her was so endearing and I honestly was so grateful for it.
I could go on but the bottom line is we weren’t there for long enough and we cannot wait to go back. We left a piece of our hearts in Kenya and with all the people we met. Ashe Mara, ashe oleng!
