Dear Mr. Lopes,

we have just returned from a wonderful visit to South Africa. Just
to let you know that the Safari trip to Kirkman and Ngala was real value
for the money, and that this 3+3 combination you had suggested was an
excellent advice.

Best regards, H. Nicolai

Hi Ernest
Kathleen and I had an absolutely fabulous time at Djuma Vuytela.  It was a lovely resort and the staff were friendly, fun and very helpful. We particularly enjoyed the communal meals where we could share our excitement with the guides.  We were assigned to a land rover, guide and tracker for the 3 days and they showed us everything we wanted to see.  We even witnessed a night time leopard kill an male impala.  It was grueseome but so powerful to see. 
We would definitely recommend this safari experience.  The food was outstanding (all freshly cooked including bread at every meal).  The rondalvals were clean, bright and very private and we loved sitting on our deck watching the animals stroll by. 
The only caution we would give is that it’s not a great place for kids.  The land rovers are “open” and exposed and often you need to sit very still and quiet for extended periods of time which would be difficult for children under 14.  I have a 10 year old I and know she would not have enjoyed this particular experience just because of the observation procedures.  The adults of course loved it and the open land rovers are truly the only way to observe and take photos.  I will send you some of my digital photos.  I’m am avid photographer. 
Thanks again for your assistance with this trip. 
Regards

Hi Ernest
We arrived home in the UK after the most wonderful trip EVER!! It is going
to be so hard to settle down to reality.
I just wanted to say a quick thanks to you for all your excellent service
and special effort. You suggested that the Varty camp would suite our listed
needs and it most certainly was spot on! I cannot state how exceptional all
the staff were. It was this huge happy family feeling out there of all the
staff no matter their role / service to the camp. We were so happy there and
will write a review on the web regarding our experience.
Thanks to for calling me at the hotel when we had just walked in. I did
struggle to pick up all we were trying to communicate on account of the
background noise at reception. What had happened is that (without our
knowledge), we had all been bumped off our flight onto a later SAA flight.
As such we were not listed on the flight on which we were booked. It is for
this reason that you were not able to trace us. We ended up being one hour
later.
If you have a place for reviews on your web, I will add our most favourable
comments re your excellent assistance. If you would like me to provide this
in some other way / web-site, please let me know.
I understand that I need to continue drinking the gin for another year, at
least, so that the Malaria does not eventuate in my system. Thanks for this
advice!!

I was sorry not to actually meet and shake your hand to personally say
'Thank You'

I have 3GB of photos to sort out, so the memory of the trip will linger
longer, thankfully.

Go well
Grant

Hi Ernest,

Janet and I would like to thank you very much for organising such an amazing honeymoon for us. The transfers went without a hitch and the hotels were absolutely amazing. We enjoyed Cape Town and the winelands and the Cape Grace was fantastic. The Royal Malewane was without a doubt one of the best hotels in the world and lived up to all expectations. So thank you again!

Cheers,

Andrew

Dear Ernest,

Just a note to say that we have returned to the U.S. and are still trying to overcome jet lag.

We want to thank you for all your help in planning our trip. We all had an absolutely fabulous time. Every phase of the trip went like clockwork, all transfers were on time and all camp personnel, drivers, etc were friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. We certainly will not hesitate to recommend Wildlife Africa and you personally to any friends who may wish to visit your wonderful country.

Thank you so much again, and best of luck in all your ventures.

HI, Ernest. We just returned home from our trip last night and just
wanted to say that things could not have been better. We loved each of
the CC Africa camps with our favorite being the Exeter River Camp, where
we had the best ranger and tracker (Brendan and Chris) that we have ever
had in Africa.
All the arrangements you made worked perfectly, too. The pickup and
transfer in Johannesburg, hotel and all the transfer flights. You did a
great job for us and we appreciate it very much. We are already looking
forward to our next Africa trip!

Many thanks,

Hi Ernest,
Just a belated "thank you" for the excellent trip you arranged for us. Everything was just as you presented it. All of the pickups and transfers worked perfectly with no problems. Madikwe, Exeter, and Phinda lodges were perfect. The staff, the meals and accommodations exceeded our expectations. We would not hesitate to recommend you and Wildlife Africa to our friends and will certainly consider you for any future trips for ourselves.


Warm regards,

Hi Ernest,

The South Africa trip was wonderful. Tshukudu Lodge was everything we hoped
for and we were
stunned at how obliging and helpful Zander, our Safari driver and tracker,
was both on the Safari and at the Lodge. The food was top class and service excellent.
The Lodges are truly unique and we are very pleased that we chose to stay there.
The balloon safari and elephant back safari were once in a lifetime experiences.
Simon, our driver back from the Palace to Johannesburg was very informative – we could not fault
the tour in any area.
Thank you once again for all your help. I will gladly recommend your tours
to anyone wishing to visit your Country.
Regards,
Pamela Murray
