incredible atmosphere, environment and people
Amazing 7 day safari taking in Massai Mara, Nakura, Naivasha and Amboseli organised by Blue Mountain safaris. We saw everything we hoped for and the variety of landscapes and environment were far better than expected. Best of all was the friendliness of the people, just lovely.
The safari went very smooth and have to say special thanks to Ann at Blue Mountain who made lots of last minute changes for us without fuss, they are highly recommended.

Last Minute Trip
Originally booked on another safari they at the last minute was canceled. I already had the flight and decided to still go to Namibia. The 9 days I spent in Namibia were the best vacation EVER! While we spent two days in each location we never felt rushed or in a hurry. Sleeping in tents up north to in a modern hotel was all very special. You see so many animals, you really will get tired of taking pictures and just take in the moment! Everyday was an adventure. The people were incredible to get to meet. If you want to get away, Namibia is the place. Food and drinks are plentiful and compared to the USA, very economical. So amazing, we already booking another trip.

A wildlife wonderland that will not disappoint.
A truly wonderful once in a lifetime experience. If you can visit during the migration season it will leave you breathless as waves of wildebeest and zebras make their journey to Tanzania. Our tour operator Pollman deserve the credit for their amazing staff and organisation. The standard of accomodation at the Sarova Hotels in the National Park were first class. The Kenyan people are some of the most delightful and friendly people you will ever meet. The changing landscapes travelling from Hells Gate National park to Shaba National park and onto Lions Hill and Masai Mara are breathtaking. If you pick the right season and tour operator you will not be disappointed.

Review about Samburu National Reserve by Jo H
First park we entered so was extra special, set a very high bar for all following parks. Loved the specialness of the creatures there like reticulated giraffe and special zebra.

Two nights camping in the Okavango - an unforgettable experience
Totally recommend this 3 day mokoro camping safari. There was just the two of us and we loved it.
Tony and Kemy from Mosu Safari Tours briefed us on what to expect the day before we went in, and on the trip itself we were superbly looked after by Joe (Mosu staff member) and well fed by George (our cook). We also very much enjoyed the company, and helpful support provided by our mokoro polers, and Emanuel, our knowledgeable guide and tracker on the game walks.
We really liked the fact that the mokoro polers and the nature guide were drawn from local villages on the edge of the delta and that these communities were benefiting as a result - eco-tourism as it should be.
We also found it rewarding to be fully immersed in the environment and interacting with game animals on foot (as opposed to the more contrived and slightly voyeuristic norm of driving around and observing game from the comfort and protection of a vehicle). Whilst this undoubtedly induced higher adrenalin levels at times (coming as we do from a country with no dangerous wild animals) we never felt the least bit unsafe.
