Life-changing experiences
Without a doubt, this was one of the best life experiences ever! Between the almost twice daily safaris, the luxury resorts, the excellent food and service, not to mention the great companionship, one could not hope for more. I kept thinking that the next day could not possibly be as good as the present day, but was always pleasantly surprised. Our skilled guides were excellent in finding animals for viewing and never disappointed. This was true in both Kenya and Tanzania. All the guides were knowledgeable and had great senses of humor.
Susan is a great coordinator in organizing such a large trip, even with the recent floods prior to our visit. Everything ran smoothly and seamlessly. Wonderful experience all around!

Exceptional tour company who covered all areas perfectly!
Our 21 day trip To Kenya and Tanzania was amazing. Susan had planned out and took responsibility for every detail of our trip. Niko, aka DB,was the head guide. All of our guides were extremely knowledgeable and answered the many questions we had about the animals, the people and culture. No question was too small. Thanks for the joy filled education,our trip of a life time!

Most amazing wildlife adventure of my life.
I traveled on a safari with my family in 2016 with Destination Consultants and returned again in 2018 bringing my university class of 19 people with me. The highest recommendation is to journey with the same company again. Every link was perfectly organized. Even with the 2018 floods and needing to change some of our accommodations, Niko and Susan are filled with the joy of living and a passion for the wildlife and ecology of Kenya and Tanzania. The guides are the highest quality with great senses of humor and deep knowledge of the area. We asked to visit a school in Tanzania as an extra component of our trip. Susan even delivered the school supplies herself. I have learned so much about the animals, the geology, the ecosystem and the culture of Kenya and Tanzania. I give this company the highest recommendation and plan on bringing back another university class in the near future. Niko and Susan are some of the most delightful people that I've ever met. The safari exceeded my dreams in every way.

Incredible Africa!
It was not our first African adventure but probably the best. We mostly stayed in small comfortable lodges right in the national parks or very close to them. The guides were very friendly and professional and we had an overall feeling of being taken care of. Their knowledge of where and when to go was incredible. We have never seen so many lions, leopards, cheetahs, hippos, elephants, you name it ever! And one more thing - buy from the locals! They are an African company - you don't pay to intermediaries, all the money goes to those who deliver and you also save because you pay less and get a better price/value ratio. Highly recommended! If we ever decide to get back to this part of Africa we will use the services of the same company. Thank you guys!

Unforgettable experience in Africa.
Everything was way better than what we were expecting. It is our first visit to Africa and we definitely want to go back as soon as possible. The service and communication was fantastic, they have a person who speaks Spanish just for us, he name is Niko, and he was with us the entire trip. He made possible to have the best trip ever. He took us to different hotels. The more we were in the middle of the serengeti the more exotic the hotel. There are tons of things to do there and I promise, you will remember every single experience for your entire life. Thanks to Niko and Susane, we had the best honeymoon we could ever have.

Outstanding African Experience beginning with the quality team and then the magical animal viewings.
I have traveled with The Destination Consultants three times and have referred numerous groups to them also. They are knowledgeable and friendly and share a wealth of information about the Africa we are seeing. It enhances the experience tremendously!! I have bee pleased with their efficiency and the recommendations they have provided on lodging and schedule. All in all, I couldn't rate them any higher - they are great!!!!!
Awesome
The only way to describe our trip to Kenya and Tanzania is awesome. We worked with Susan who helped us plan a flawless trip. From the time we were picked up at the hotel and went through four parks in Kenya and Tanzania to the time we were dropped at the airport everything worked perfectly. Our guides were knowledgeable and very informative. We learnt a lot from them from facts about various animals to the culture of the country. If you are planning a safari we would definitely recommend contacting Susan and Niko. Also ask for Eliud as your guide we really enjoyed touring with him.
Susan was easy to work with and very concerned that our trip went smoothly. She kept close tabs on our movements throughout the trip, and solved problems before they arose. Thank you Susan and Niko for a really memorable time.

An exceptional experience enhanced by the wonderful,friendly, and knowledgeable guides.
A fantastic trip, the itinerary was very well put together and the accommodations we had very nice. Each safari was a new and different experience. The guides were the best, got us the best views and if possible the best lighting for taking pictures too. They were very knowledgeable and excellent at sighting the wildlife and birds. Our group was eight people for 21 days and not one complaint about the tour, only praise. Would recommend Niko, Susan and their great team to all.

Most amazing tour, so filled with beautiful scenery, superb animals and vast guide knowledge.
Niko and Susan are wonderful people. Every connection was perfectly timed, every detail mastered. Niko and the other guides were extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic. They answered all 7 million of my questions with great detail and humor. We learned about the people of Kenya and Tanzania as well as the amazing wildlife. I travel throughout the world on educational and photography adventures. This safari was by far my greatest adventure. Does the fact that I took over 10,000 photos tell you the caliber of this trip? I plan on returning to Africa and traveling with Destination Consultants with my university students.

Now having returned to Colombia, we would like to say that we had a wonderful and beautiful time in Kenya and Tanzania. Thanks to Niko and Susan for their welcome, kindness and the excellent organization for the 9 days we had in total in the two countries.
We also apreciate a lot Ray ( Raymond ), our Guide in Tanzania . We can deeply recommand The Destination Consultants. They deserve it all.
It was a great pleasure to have been hosted there and shown the beautiful landscape and wildlife of enchanting Africa.
We went back to Colombia and Brasil with nostalgy but with plenty of photographs of this memorable safari . We are sure to return in the future. We have made good friends in Kenya and Tanzania and, we are convinced we can count on them when needed.
We let part of our souls and hearts there.
We wish Niko and Susan the very best for their entreprise full of adventures .
Hugs from South America .
