Traveler Testimonials
R. Flemming
“Everyone should put this trip on their bucket list. I can’t say enough about it!”
E. Dawber
“Exceptional!!!! The staff on site, the meals they prepared on a tiny charcoal oven, and their graciousness – all was appreciated. Our guide, was utterly fantastic!!! And his easy relationships with the Masai and knowledge of Kenyan politics and customs made the trip even more memorable. Many, many, thanks!”
P. Lea
“I was thoroughly impressed all the way around by our Expedition Leader. He was the consummate gentleman – listened to all, attended to all, answered all questions to the best of his knowledge (which was vast). He made sure everyday on the game drives that we took in as much as possible by being patient and observing the behaviors of the animals – never rushing around, always parking with the “best” light for photography and explaining what we were seeing. He’s inspired me to save for a gorilla trip in the future. The whole safari experience was awesome – just the vastness of it all – the savanna itself, the diversity of species seen and the sheer numbers. I will continue to travel with Natural Habitat for many reasons – small groups, excellent travel arrangements, wonderful adventures with animals as the focus rather than the touristy thing. I feel safe and well taken care of as a single traveler.”
P. Sheffield
“This was my best safari that I’ve been on, and we’ve been on half a dozen other safaris!”
A. Voelker
“We most enjoyed time spent on safari observing animals with our amazing guides. The accommodations, food and staff far exceeded our expectations. Our trip was truly seamless from start to finish and we have NHA to thank for that!”
M. Temple
“Our camp manager, driver and guide, was all we could have asked for, and more. He answered all of our questions (even though he has heard them all before!) and supplied all of the additional background and had the eyes of a vulture (that is a compliment). We appreciated getting to know him, he worked very hard to make sure our adventure was a success.”
C. Vavrina
“The tents were clean and well staffed and I felt safe and comfortable. I also really appreciate the solar electric lighting!! Our guide was great! He understood the wildlife, their habits and had the patience to wait for a situation to develop as he knew it would.”
B. Nilsson
“I cannot say enough good things about our Expedition Leader and his role in this trip. He is by far the best guide I have ever had. Aside from his sense of humor and his patience, his knowledge of the animals is incredible. He not only can find the animals, he can tell you what you are seeing and their behavior. If there is an opportunity for him to lead other trips, I strongly recommend him!”
J. Miller
“Our Expedition Leader was an exceptional guide. His knowledge of the animals and his love for them and the environment were evident throughout the trip. His patience set the tone for watching the animals, which enhanced the total experience. Furthermore, he rotated between the vehicles so that each of us had equal access to his expertise. He was always thinking of ways to maximize our experience. This was an excellent trip – we enjoyed the abundance of wildlife and the emphasis on watching the animals rather than just looking at them. The wildebeest crossings were a definite highlight, as was the pride of lions.”
