Africa 8-Day Tours and Trips

A great mix of busy, bustling Marakech and remote mountain village life in Morocco. The village is completely off the beaten track. I believe there was one car in the village and lots of mules.The riad has incredible views, a great place to sit and relax. We arrived when the mountain villages had just received 50cm of fresh crisp snow. The area looked stunning, even if they were not the views we were expecting. The food at the riad was excellent. Similarly the hot picnics freshly cooked on the mountain side with wonderful locally produced ingredients were tasty examples of local Moroccan cuisine and were something I shall never forget. And I have developed a taste for Moroccan mint tea. Very tasty.

This trip exceeded my expectations.We were travelling at the end of the season,just as the long rains were due and I was a little anxious about "what" we would manage to see.We were looked after so well,and everyone did their utmost to ensure we had a perfect and memorable trip.

This was hands down one of the best trips I have ever taken - guided or not. Paul and our three Kicheche Camp guides (James, Patrick and Charles) definitely put us through our paces - 4:30am starts, 14 hour days in the land rover and some serious miles on that road, but we were delighted. We probably managed to see more of what the Mara has to offer in that one week than most people see in a lifetime (and all in amazing, gold, sunrise/sunset light). The whole team was super dedicated to making the absolute most of every hour, and were extremely knowledgeable about the area and its animals and completely understanding of the need for just the right angle on that back-lit cheetah. Meanwhile, Kennedy, Abe and the team back at camp made sure that when we returned bruised, battered, and exhilirated, there was always a hot shower and a cold Stoney to welcome us. I cannot imagine doing the Mara in any other other way or with any other tour - as can be attested by the fact that all our most memorable sights (10 day old cheetah cubs, leopard with 3 cubs, cheetah taking down an impala) were pretty much witnessed only by our three vehicles. Truly amazing!

We took the 7 day Lemosho route with this tour operator, and they were outstanding in all respects! Our very friendly and knowledgeable guides Ricky and Danny made sure we were well prepared to summit by advising us on clothing, hydration, nutrition, and how to minimize the chances of altitude sickness. In addition they were well versed in the flora and fauna and pointed it out to us. The cook and porters were very attentive and hard working. We always had great food at each meal, afternoon snacks, and coffee served to our tents each morning. The porters always had our tents and campsite set up in advance of our arrival and a smile on their faces despite their hard work! This tour company team not only insured that all of our group reached Uhuru peak but also made a unforgettable experience, I highly recommend them for your adventure!!

Amazing staff and guides who are very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. My 9 days trip to Egypt was amazing and I enjoyed every minute of it. I did the treasures of Egypt last year and could not recommend this company enough thank you.

my experience in Morocco cannot be described by words. Our guide Hamid treated us as family, and created and atmosphere among our group that I will never forget. Not only did I see the beauty of Morocco, but I met new lifelong friends along the way. I cannot express my gratitude enough towards Hamid for the tour and love he provided to us.
