Sabah Adventure, August 2018
John Brennan
Excellent trip. Superb opertunity for wildlife, hiking, food, culture. Disappointed we didn’t summit Mount Kinabalu but the weather prevented us. Make use of the porters for the hike and you can never do enough training for Mount Kinabalu.

The Masai Heartlands, July 2018
Seijiro Tsuchi
Everything about East Africa was amazing, from the wildlife and scenery, to it's people and culture. This was my first group tour and it exceeded my expections. The wildlife I encountered was endless - from the big five to the thousands of wildebeast on the great migration. Interacting and learning from the local people was an emotional and memorable part of this tour. Met other friendly and like-minded individuals on this trip.
