I was a little anxious about doing this trip alone but everyone was so friendly and I had so much fun. I opted to go snorkelling with a member of the boat crew. We were out for almost an hour and I saw the most amazing marine l upife. We were lucky enough to see some dolphins, although not for long. Lunch on Wasini Island was really good, plenty of food and the service was great. My overnight stay at Shimoni Reef Lodge was just perfect, the staff went out of their way to welcome me and make my stay memorable. The food was wonderful. I took the opportunity to visit the slave caves and was escorted there personally by Nyinge who worked at the Lodge, nothing was too much trouble. I would recommend this trip to anyone looking for a unique two day experience

We took a 10 day trek through Tsavo East, Amboseli, Naivasha, Nakuru and Maasai Mara. Joseph was the driver. The trip was good, we saw a lot of animals including the migration crossing the Mara River. Probably would have been a better safari with a different guide. Good facilities and Jennifer was First Class setting the entire trip up.

Got up early inorder to get our ride to the dhow. We opted for the luxury package as both my wife and I love dhows. There were 2 other couples with us, which was alright as the dhow was not crowded. The ride got bumpy at times, but as we have worked on water before this was not an issue. We got to see the dolphins feeding which was amazing. We had lunch at the Pilli Pipa restaurant thereafter. the service and hospitality we experienced was nothing short of amazing and the meal was delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire day. Thank you and God bless ????
