We had a wonderful time and felt very confident in the itinerary Kitty built. It was a relief knowing our transfers were all booked and handled. The accommodations and service at the Lemala lodges were outstanding.
Elation, happiness, impressed, relief, humbled. The trip brought out so many wonderful emotions and we were extremely impressed by how organized the journey was. This was our first time to Africa and working with a travel agent and we couldn't have been more excited with how things turned out. Ever…
Overall we thoroughly enjoyed the trip. All transfers were on time and drivers were very friendly, completely stress-free. The staff we encountered were all very friendly and professional. Even with a small miscommunication at GOLD it was swiftly resolved.
