Reviews for Kenya 9 day Safari, tailor made
Lorna Lawson review 22 Jun 2023
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
The whole experience was great. We had some amazing wildlife sightings, including a pride of 16 lions including 8 cubs and 2 males, a herd of 34 elephants, and a trek with a black rhino ranger where we saw 2 black rhinos. But the over riding memory will be of the Namibian people and how happy and friendly and welcoming they are. We never felt wary or unsafe on any part of our trip.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
If you are going in their winter, then you really do need to a pack fleece and a warm wind breaker. Most of the wildlife-watching trucks are open and you'll leave while it's still dark in the morning and the air is freezing! Also pack a small torch as you usually need to walk to your room, again in the dark, and your phone torch isn't quite focussed enough.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
It definitely benefited local people, at the very least through the employment the tourism brings to everywhere we stayed. It definitely supported conservation as we paid to enter protected areas and we had one trip with a black rhino ranger who works directly in rhino conservation.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
Fantastic! From the places we stayed, the wildlife we saw and the people we met, we had an amazing experience and would highly recommend Namibia as a safari vacation way beyond other countries.Holiday Reviews
