Kenya Safari Client Feedback --------------------- Kenya Safari Client Feedback
------------------------------------------
We just love to receive feedback from our guests! Especially when accompanied by the most incredible photos and kind words! Our guest took full advantage of the unusual high season in Kenya and had the most incredible (and safe) safari!

Velislav sent us these kind words: "One of the most (if not the most) well organized safari I've ever had. Due to the Corona virus situation the organization had some extra challenges (making PCR tests, unclear flight schedule and lodges openings, borders closing, short organization time, etc.), but Michelle did an excellent job. I didn't have to worry about anything, there was always someone guiding me to the next step. All I had to do is to enjoy the experience, and I did enjoyed a lot indeed. Highly recommend"

And here are a selection of his incredible photos! Makes you want to get out and explore Africa for yourself!
