On Safari, we saw all of the Big Five plus a multitude of animals and a beautiful array of birds. Included was the first spotting of a white rhino in the last several weeks at Mombo and following a pride of lions from laying around and cubs playing, to their stalking a herd of buffalo, isolating one and eventually taking it down.  National Geographic definitely abridges their footage and removes the sound track!  What an experience!!!  All of the camps were excellent, with highly knowledgeable guides who made sure that we saw all. Thank you so very much for the work you did to put this together for us!  It was truly a fantastic dream of a lifetime trip!!!

Hi Liesl, We just got back to Washington a few hours ago so we are a bit tired but I wanted to tell you just how much we enjoyed our time and how everything was so well organised . Please don't worry about the problem with the luggage ( all is well that ends well). We will send you pictures and tell you all about our wonderful adventures in our next email . Jack and I want to thank you for a trip of a lifetime ! Kay & Jack

Jeff,

I wanted to let you know that I had the most incredible, dream trip. I can only imagine the work you all put in behind the scenes to make it all happen.

Again, I appreciate all you and the team did for us behind the scenes, and also the support you all provided while we were in South Africa. We were able to maximize our limited time there and see a great deal with your help and advice. Please pass on my thanks to everyone in the Cape Town office and anyone else who had a hand in this that we may not have met.

I'm looking forward to booking Tanzania next! WooHooo! Judy

Dear Liesl, I just had to write to thank you for the magnificent planning of our honeymoon - this trip was an absolute dream come true. Steve and I loved every second of it, from Cape Town (where we both want to move to now) to the perfection of Lion Sands - you could not have choreographed a more perfect itinerary. Many, many thanks again for everything - it was such a pleasure getting to meet you in person, and I hope that we'll be able to work on a return trip very soon. All best wishes, Erika

Lise & Jeff, The safari was awesome.  Among the many amazing animals and landscapes, we saw 3 kills - a pride of lions kill a cape buffalo, and twice saw cheetahs kill a gazelle. Solomon was really 100% responsible for making the trip so awesome.  More than just a driver, he was unbelievably knowledgeable about absolutely everything - animals, plants, star constellations, geology, Tanzanian and African history, demographics.  We didn't ask a single question that he didn't know the answer to, and we asked a lot of questions.  We requested, and he and the camps obliged, for him to eat dinner with us and the other guests because he was so enjoyable to talk to.  Not only was he smart, he was funny, considerate, polite, jovial.  He also had an "instinct" for what animals were about to do - for example, one day there were a ton of trucks watching a leopard from a distance.  Not only did he watch the leopard, but he watched where the leopard was LOOKING.  He said "I think I know where it's going next" and drove us away from all of the other trucks.  It jumped out of its tree and disappeared in the grass.  A moment later, it emerged from the tall grass and jumped onto a log 10 yards from where Solomon had positioned our truck.  Not one of the other trucks had done the same, and we got an up-close-and-personal view of the leopard.  Then it walked right towards us and around the front of the truck. We have some amazing photos from the trip and I am getting a ton of questions about it.  I tell everyone that if they ever go to Tanzania, they absolutely need to use Solomon as their guide.  He went above-and-beyond the entire 10 days and it really made our trip special.
