★★★★★● VERIFIED JOURNEY

Conservancies are the way

Staying on Naboisho meant we often had sightings entirely to ourselves while the reserve was busy. Knowing our fees paid Maasai landowners directly made it better still.

“

★★★★★● VERIFIED JOURNEY

Photographic heaven

Duncan positioned the vehicle for light every single time without being asked. I came home with a portfolio, not just holiday snaps.

“

★★★★★● VERIFIED JOURNEY

The special five delivered

Samburu was the surprise of the trip — gerenuk standing on hind legs meters from us. Impeccable camps and honest advice throughout.

“

★★★★★● VERIFIED JOURNEY

Wonderful, with one long day

The drive north to Samburu is not short — be warned — but every other aspect, from the guiding to the food, was outstanding.
