Great trip! The most action-packed safari!
Kenya between 28 Aug 2016 and 7 Sep 2016
"Fantastic. Loved every minute!
It was such an action-packed safari and we saw so many incredible animal interactions!
Richard was super helpful in understanding our desires and planning the perfect itinerary. Also, the Nairobi guide/driver was great and planned our half day perfectly."

Kicheche Bush Camp
"Great camp that lived up to all the hype"
3 nights
Arrived 1 Sep 2016
"We picked Kicheche Bush b/c we wanted to be in the Olare Orok conservancy, and both the area and the camp were awesome! Things we loved:
- Incredibly action packed game drives. On a single drive, we saw cheetahs, baby hyenas, numerous lions, 2 mating lions, and a lion/wilderbeest kill!
- Great guiding. All silver level. Our guide was very knowledgeable about photography and had great tips for the best shots.
- Beautiful luxurious rooms.
- Truly gourmet food worthy of Michelin stars. Don't know how they do it. If you have time, visit the kitchen and the chef!
- Ability to go for a walk with a great walking guide (Patrick).
- Great jeep mates."

Rekero
"Good experience but not quite up to expectati"
2 nights
Arrived 4 Sep 2016
"We had stayed at Asilia camps in Tanzania, and loved it, so were very much looking forward to Rekero. Overall, it was a good experience, but did not quite live up to our (admittedly very high) expectations.
Things we loved:
- Camp was in a very lovely location next to a small river. We were able to see our own small crossing.
- As with all Asilia camps, tent and food were very good.
- Our guide, Onesmus, was one of very few Gold Level guides. He was very good at spotting action and an excellent photographer."

- Seeing the wild dogs every day!!
- Great guiding by Steve, Steven and Mgombe. Very hard working and skilled guides
- The varied activities offered including walking, swimming, fishing, etc. No 2 days were the same.
- Delicious food every meal, all served in different settings (eg., by a waterfall, at a watering hole, open flame BBQ).
- Meeting interesting people. The camp was a very social environment with adventurous people from all over the world. Great conversations!"
