Great experience !
We had a great time in Kenya and East Africa Shuttles make it possible. Also the communication whit Chris was very good, when we had a question when we were at home, he always answer directly. we are staying at Lenchada Tourist Camp and the people there did a great job. It was basic but very clean en the people are vey friendly.
If we come back to Kenya then we will book again by East Africa Shuttles.
We will thank everyone for doing a great job.
God bless you all.

It was an experience of a lifetime,a thrilling encounter with wildlife, with JUSTTRAVELS India.
Kudos to the JUSTTRAVELS India initiative to take us on a mesmerising trip to Kenya- the land of the BIG FIVE.
We availed the best of accomodations, the most thrilling safaris - dawn to dusk -wherein we sighted the cheetah , herds of elephants and wildebeests, the giraffe and the zebras uncountable ,the mighty pride of lions with playful cubs blocking our way.Unforgettable was the exotic spread of meat of varied sorts at the Carnivore, Nairobi.Thanks to the JUSTTRAVELS tour consultant for being our constant companion throughout the trip and their exemplary warm hospitality .They kept the vehicle always at our doorstep. We just needed to step into it and there we were in the middle of the mighty Masaimara!!We had no idea that 11 nights and 12 days of stay and travelling could be so invigorating .Looking forward to just travel with you more !! Just came to know about your upcoming trips to Uganda on 16th July and to Tanzania on 22nd May 2016. Really confused which trip to take!!!!!
JUSTTRAVELS INDIA handles their guests extremely professionally yet maintains a very proactive human interface which is desirable but rare.

The Fossil Trail is an educational delight framed by the mountains in the background.

Review about Camdeboo National Park by Sharon du Plessis
The view over looking the Valley of Desolation is magnificent. The wildlife and birding around the dam is an extra bonus.

Review about Augrabies Falls National Park by Sharon du Plessis
When the waterfalls are in full flow, their beauty is awesome. The birding is well-worth the extra travel time.

Landscape panoramic heaven
The landscape scenery is absolutely stunning at any time of the day or in any weather condition. As a photographer there are plenty of opportunities to indulge photographic interludes. Parking your vehicle in one spot and taking a photo of the same landscape of a period of time results in a kaleidoscope of images.
Birds are plentiful, especially in the short grasslands and around the campsite in the shrubs more small and medium sized birds are to be discovered. The regal Blue Crane is present in the grassland areas as well as the Secretarybird. Verreaux's Eagle can be seen soaring along the cliff tops.
Antelope is to be found in all the biomes represented in the national park with plenty of the Cape Mountain Zebra too be seen as well. Predators such as the Lion and Cheetah are more scarce to be seen, unless you are prepared to pay for the Cheetah Tracking safari. The smaller mammals such as the Ground Squirrel, Meerkat and Mongoose are seen in the shorter grassland areas and are a delight to watch.
We splashed out on an evening game drive. Our guide was knowledgable on all topics of the park and conservation and environmentalism in general, as well as super friendly. I wanted to see owls and he obliged by taking us past a know Spotted Eagle Owl nest. The vehicle was comfortable and extra warm poncho's were provided to keep us warm in the cold night air.
The camping site was neat and tidy and the ablution facilities were sufficient for our short stay. A kitchen with a fridge, freezer, cooking tops and microwave oven was available for all the campers use as needed.
We made use of one of the picnic sites situated outside the restcamp area for one lunchtime barbecue. The children used the ample space to bicycle around and swam in the natural rock pool at the site.

The park is excellent for photographing the animals and birds, especially the big cats.
The park offers so much in terms of very often a exclusive opportunity to be with wild game, be it the many different antelope species found there or some of the big cats like, cheetah, leopard and lion. Another plus is the fact that one gets quite close to the animals since most are very tamed. Then if one is real lucky, a kill by a predator is often seen in the park by visitors, so for photography, it's excellent. There are two points in my view that needs attention, namely the bad condition of the gravel roads and lately also the pile-up of vehicles at a "cat-sighting" that seems to occur more-and-more.
