Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

The trip planner from this travel company created an amazing itinerary and the travel team ensured we were well taken care of every moment of our trip. A travel specialist from this team met us on our arrival and would check in with us and our guide every few days. Our three week adventure through Southern Kenya, Northern Tanzania & Zanzibar included a great mix of safaris focused on wildlife, as well as both planned & spontaneous interactions with locals & the Massai people, we visited an ancient art rock site, a hot air balloon ride and much more. The safari guides were both excellent and appeared to know every corner of their respective areas. We saw all the animals & birds one hopes for when visiting Africa.
A trip of a lifetime.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

Really hard to say as every day was amazing. One morning in Tanzania, we mentioned to our guide - that we would love to hear some live Africa music. He said he would give it some thought as to how he could make this happen. Not twenty minutes later as we were on our drive to the Serengeti - our guide points to a location off to the right - and there was a group of African singers recording a music video. Our guide approached them to ask if we could watch them & they were very welcoming.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

One of the special memories will be of when we randomly stopped and had opportunities to interact with the young African children as we passed through areas they lived. When the kids saw our vehicle stop, they would approach hoping for a candy. Once we got out of the vehicle the kids, while initially shy, warmed up and were a joy to interact with.

If I were to go again (highly likely) I would bring more treats & small gifts for the kids. Apparently a very appreciated gift is a simple pencil or notebook for school.
