“We just came back to Sweden after a couple of amazing weeks down on your continent. Just wanted to thank you for recommending the Botswana camping safari- those days were some of the most amazing in my life. Everything was perfect. The tour plan, the guide, etc. I would recommend this tour to anyone who is not TOO afraid of the camping part of it (I do not normally consider myself a camping person). The fact that we stayed in campsites rather than lodges really brought us close to nature. I loved every bit of it. The trip also has a very authentic feel to it- we never felt just part of the big tourist wheel. You can quote me on this!”

“Hi Huntley I hope that this email finds you well. Just wanted to thank you again for organising the overland safari-trip for us, for responding to all our questions and for inspiring us to wonders of Africa. We had a great trip on the Southern Africa Tour - and that goes for all us including the children. We ended up in a group of 15 people - including Germans, Suiss, Norwegians and Dutch people. There was one additional child 13 year old. The guide was really good - very knowledgeable and engaged. Unfortunately, part of the group (all the German-speaking ones) did not get along with him which caused a bit of conflicts on the tour. But either they had not been appropriately informed about the nature of the tour before hand or they just were not the right type of people for a group travel I do not know - anyway it just emphasises the need of appropriate preparations - which I really think that you provided! There was a lot of highlights on the tour - we saw all the wildlife we could dream about - so we had great holiday. We all fell in love with Africa and hope to be able to return one day - will make sure to include Cape town then. I you need any recommendations in any I will be happy to provide it! All the best Gertrud”

“Hi, We came back home safely, after 30 hours of traveling (Livingstone-Joburg-Dubai-?stanbul). But it was marvellous, amazing, and just like a dream. Even going to Zambia, actually. At the end I'm happy that we go to the Zambian side. Everything happened just like you said. We find a taxi very easily after crossing to Zambia and pay 40USD to the driver for Jollyboys. We liked Livingstone. We did the whole day rafting, and then the next day we took the "under spray" tour and walked over the rocks under the falls. It was amazing. And for the sunset we stayed at the "royal Livingstone" hotel. The view was so romantic and fantastic. On your left you can see the sprays coming up from the falls, in front the Zambezi river with hippos, and an amazing orange sunset. Also while walking in the national park we were guided by a local and make a chain in order to walk on the edge of the falls. Those men know what they are doing. They even took our photos by showing us the best spots. It was really fun. Even though, now, I can't believe that we all did it. I really want to thank you for your help with everything. We're so happy for being able to meet. You are always welcome to Turkey, especially ?stanbul. If you need/want anything from here just say.. Hope to see you again”

“Thanks so much for helping with advice on the trip. It was lovely to have experienced Lesotho. Lesotho is so different to South Africa.”
