Hi Renate,

Beryl and I wanted to thank you for a fantastic trip and all your help in keeping our plans to travel there a secret.

The surprise was wonderful and certainly added a zest to a group tired from travelling.

Overall, we could not have been more impressed with a trip (well maybe with the small exception of the 'tents'!) - we now know we are complete cowards and have been glad to return to our insect (me) and monkey (Beryl) free zones in Ireland.

Our trip to the winelands was excellent, great fun, informative and Steve was a wonderful guide whom we would highly recommend to others.

Our thanks once again.

Anne and Beryl

We arrived back home yesterday after our 3 weeks in Africa. What a wonderful trip! Everything went better than we could have imagined. Our trip to Kruger was outstanding - Shishangeni is a beautiful place to stay - excellent accommodations, food and service. Our guide Chris on the game drives was outstanding. My wife and I are both science teachers, so seeing the park was a great experience. We asked many questions and learned so much. And our 16-year-old son can't stop talking about it - he had a wonderful time too.

Thank you so much for arranging this part of our vacation. From the moment we landed at Nelspruit to the time we were delivered back, everything was perfect. We would love to come back! Thanks so much again for all of your help.

Sincerely,

Tim, Barbara and Ben Haag

Thanks a lot Brett. We had a fantastic time. Everything went smoothly. Each lodge was great in its own way and they were all different. A nice mixture. No complaints, only compliments.You did a great job and I will recommend you and your company if anyone in Fort Worth asks about travelling to Southern Africa.

We've nothing but good to say about the Botswana trip. The lodges in both cases were up to expectations and the staff at both places were wonderful. The new David Livingstone Hotel at Victoria Falls was really nice too. Once the landscaping grows in, it will be a wonderful destination.

Many thanks for all your help.

I can't thank you enough. Things went exactly as you had planned them out. The trip to Victoria Falls was perfect and I'm so glad you scheduled that in. The drivers between Livingston and Kasane were very nice, there on time, and very professional. I loved Okuti--as my first experience it was just right. As an aside, some more experienced travelers complained that the guides were terrific at answering questions but not in spontaneously offering information--I have no frame of reference to compare, so I can't say. I thought they were fine.

Great job and I'm now hooked. I'm sure once I move here I'll be looking for some weekend adventures in Southern Africa and will no doubt be in touch. Thank you again.

Hello, Brett,

We want to say thank you for the trip to Africa you have arranged for us. It was the best vacation we have ever been on! It was really a facinating, fabulous trip. It is hard to tell what we liked most, since everything was beyond our expectations. The service was excellent, the people were absolutely amazing, the food was fantastic. And of course the nature and the animal world was very, very cool!

Thank you again for your help to make this trip possible, we appreciate it so much. We would like to come back to Africa some time in the future so we will defintely keep you in mind. We have also got some friends who might be interested to go next year, I will tell them about your website.

Also, want to pass you "Hello" from the camp manager of Xigera, his name is Anton. He said that he knew you and your brother and that you were excellent at sports.

Thank you again, Olga and Jason.

Olga and Jason visited Xigera in the Okavango Delta and Selinda in the Linyanti.

Brett, I will be sending a letter to you tomorrow (July 7--here in the US). Charles Perrings said to register the letter. So in case you don't receive it, it just says thanks for all you did to make the trip comfortable for Kathy. We all enjoyed every thing so very much.

Brett:

Just a note of appreciation for the fine trip you arranged, the camps were wonderful, the transfers perfect, and all in all we had a wonderful time. Each an every place was conscientious about Kathy; putting her in the closest tent or room, making sure she had cushions for the game drives, etc. (and Chobe Game Lodge made sure she had cushions no matter where she was sitting—dinner, game drive, etc.!).

All the facilities were fantastic and comfortable, and we would recommend them to anyone, but we have to express particular appreciation for the management and staff at Camp Okavango—we will remember them, and their warmth and hospitality, for many years to come.

We were impressed with how smoothly everything went, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend SUNSAFARIS to anyone considering an African safari in the future.
