Jambo Shadrack,
 
I attempted to place feedback on your site but was unable to do so.

Paul and myself would like to thank yourself and Shauri for the wonderful safari to Tsavo East and West, they were a fantastic experience.
 
 Shauri was a superb driver/guide, extremely knowledgeable and very helpful and patient.
 
The Lodges were beautiful especially the Kilaguna Serena Lodge, it had magnificent views that we could have looked at forever!
 
Once again, Asanta Sana for a truly memorable holiday.

Dear Shadrack,

 We are now back home and the suitcases are unpacked and stored away for another year.

 I would just like to thank you for all the arrangements you made on our behalf to make our safari so wonderful and for providing transport once again to the Heart Childrens Home.

Please also thank Evans for his help at the store when we bought some food to take with us and for his careful driving. I have to say that your drivers both this year and last year (Patrick) have been excellent and they have given us some wonderful memories that will last a lifetime. Our guide at the Masai Mara was not quite as good as your guys!
It is our dearest wish that we may return to Kenya some day, and if we do I hope you will still be there for us as you will be the first person we will contact.

Thank you again for your wonderful service.

 Warmest regards

Joan and Ron Patterson.

Hi shadrack

Got back to the uk on Friday and back to work on Monday unfortunately, just wanted to say thankyou for the part you and your guides on both our trips  played in making our dream holiday and wedding in Kenya, the people couldn't have been more friendly and supportive and the wedding day was perfect. We defitnetly chose the perfect destination for our big day.

Sadie is already looking at trying to tie another stop over in Kenya next year as part of our world trip.

Once again thankyou, and we will certainatly be recommending glorious safaris to anyone we know who is thinking of holidaying in Kenya.

Regards 

David & Sadie

Dear Shadrack,

I wish to thank you very much for an absolutely amazing experience on our safari.

Our guide Oscar was brilliant, we saw lots of animals and Oscar told us everything we wanted to know about them.

It was an experience we will never forget and made our honeymoon so memorable

We hope to come again in the future and have already recommended your company to friends and collected.

Many thanks again and I hope to see you when we have saved enough to come again!

Regards

Back home now.  Would just like to thank you for a really great safari, we had a wonderful time, and managed to see four of the big five.

 We appreciate everything you did for us after the plane broke down, (which was just one of those things). Thanks for `caring enough to make sure we got a meal upon our return. We would & have highly recommended you to friends and other hotel guests.

Many thanks again. It really was a Glorious Safari!!

Hi Shadrack

 Just a quick email to thank you for the excellent safari you organised for us. We all really enjoyed the exprerience and the girls didn't complain about getting up early!!

 We thought Patrick was a very good guide and driver.

 Thanks also for organising the other pick up and drop offs and the tour of Mombasa Old town which all went very smoothly.

 I will certainly recommend you to any friends who want a safari in Kenya.

 Regards

 Mike

May i take this opportunity to thank yourself and Shauri for the wonderful safari we had. Apart from the false start when i had forgot to change my phone time from UK to kenyan which made us oversleep on the first morning everything went like a dream. Also the very generous use of the phone for the duration of our holiday which made a difference. By the way at no point did we get a signal with Safari.com whilst in the parks but worked a dream back at Voyager.

Shauri (my Rafiki) is a credit to you, and his knowledge and passion, not just for the safari but for the culture and the country is excellent as the amount of information he gave me was amazing, he has eyes like a hawk and spots things we could not see but he must admit on the final day it was Tina who spotted the cheetah and he praised her on her spotting skills, saying she could do his job???

The lodges were superb and Kilaguni was special as they put us into suite 5 which was amazing luxury if only for one night. (not enough)

The celebration of Tina's birthday at Ashnil Aruba was great the whole team came out and presented her with an iced named cake and it was a pity we could not have saved it to bring home as we put it out for all to enjoy on the desert table.

I will be sending Shauri some information on disc i have of wildlife programs off British TV care of yourself and also for both of you a selection of photos which i have said you can use for promotion purposes (you probably get sent loads) if you like but just give me a bit of credit for them if you use any.

Finally i have a colleague who is coming out to Kenya for his 9th time around end of September. He is going to contact you ref safari. He is a good bloke so do your best for him as i think he usually goes to Masai Mara for his safari, as you can imagine as its his 9th time he is hooked now (as i am).

We shall return and will no doubt be contacting you when we do.

Also sorry nearly forgot thanks for the transfers from and to the airport with Aaron. give him and Shauri my best regards.

We just wanted to thank you both so much for our amazing safari. You were both so helpful and friendly and provided us with such a wonderful service. We absolutely loved our safari and the Royal Mara lodge, recommended by you, was just perfect.
 
We have been recommending you and have posted Glorious safaris a 5 star review on trip advisor. We honestly couldn't have wished for the whole experience to be any better than it was, so thank you so much.
 
Take care and thanks again

Hi Shadrack,

We had a great time in Kenya and the safari was the highlight of our holiday. Patrick was very good at spotting the animals and we never felt rushed at all and Patrick would stop for us to see the animals as much as we wanted. Please can you pass on our thanks to Patrick.

Graham and myself found the experience from the booking through to the end if the safari a very good one. We did see plenty of animals but missed the leopard, however, I guess that is just nature!.

I have already placed a positive review on Trip Advisor and I have been contacted by someone who is travelling next week and wanted our opinion on Glorious. We did give them positive feedback.

I understand how competitive it is in Kenya, I have been working in customer services for a number of years and managed many people in customer service, my experience of good service are the little things such as communicating efficiently, do what you say you will do, be punctual and professional and offer a good service. I couldn't fault Glorious as I felt it ticked all if my boxes of my expectations and I do have fairly high expectations.

The positives for me were:
- patrick was very punctual and knowledgeable.
- You replied quickly and effectively to emails prior to arrival in Kenya.
- I liked the email of the accomodation voucher, this gives people peace of mind when paying a deposit for something in another country.
- I liked that the bank account was a Uk one, I just think this gives some sort if peace of mind.
- I liked the fact you gave us a mobile phone so we could contact you if need be, this again gives reassurance and peace if mind even though we didn't need to use it.

We will be returning to Kenya again and we would like to do a longer safari to the Mara this time. It is likely to be next year, however, we will look to contact you nearer the time as providing prices are competitive, we would prefer to go with Glorious again.

Thank you again, I hope our feedback is useful, I genuinely do not have any negative feedback about Glorious.I would recommend Glorious to anyone based on our experience.

Take care, and best wishes

Amanda and Graham

Dear Shadrack,

I hope you had a good Christmas. I am sorry to take so long to respond but I have been quite ill since my return from Kenya.
I would just like to thank you for making our safari  from the 6th - 8th Dec one to remember.
We will certainly use your company again when we return to Kenya.
 I have written a review on trip advisor and will recommend you to friends and family.
 Can you say hello to Patrick for us he was a fantastic guide and such a gentleman.

 Hope you and your family are ok and the weather is as GLORIOUS as your amazing country. We have eventually had all our 2000 photos developed which have strengthen our fantastic unforgettable memories. We would be very grateful if you could pass on our warmest thanks to our three superb drivers first Patrick who gave us the most amazing lion, elephant, giraffe, zebra etc (the list is endless) wildlife pictures in the  vast Tsavo West. Then he took us on to Amboseli where as you promised our tents were right in front of Kilimanjaro which is absolutely stunning. Patricks evening game drive again produced many wildlife pictures and without doubt the most unforgettable African sunset over Amboseli amazing. Then there is Evans who is so funny and kept us thoroughly entertained with his Kenyan phrases and his attempt to teach us a few Swahili words on our way to another brilliant trip to Wasini Island . Last but not least is Sam and Shimba Hills where he took us on possibly the best walk ever to the stunning Sheldrick falls then onto Shimba Hills lodge for a excellent lunch and once again many superb photos

We cannot stress to you enough how much we enjoyed our safaris with your excellent company and the memories which will stay with us forever.Hope to return soon to your amazing country and once again thank you.

 It would be nice if we could keep in touch.  Look forward to hearing from you.

 Best Wishes

Shadrack,

 I hope that you and Patrick are well.

 Our safari was better than we could have hoped for. We saw every animal on our "wish to see" list and got close views of the elusive trio....leopard, rhino and cheetah. Patrick really is an excellent driver and guide and I think he enjoyed his week with us.

 There were lots of high points on the safari, but I think the best one was when we were the first van to leave the Mara Serena early in the morning and we came upon a larger pride of lions. It was magical, with the sun just about rising there were 8 adults and 4 cubs playing on a small ridge. Three of the adults gradually got closer and closer until they were only 10 metres away. Then they started roaring, a deep throaty roar which vibrated their whole bodies. After a few minutes we got an even closer view when they got up and walked right in front of our van. Fantastic!!!!!, it's so incredible to see these magnificent animals up so close in their natural environment.

 The van was comfortable, but did take a bit of a battering from some of the roads. The road from Narok to the Mara is especially very poor and our bones have just about recovered from this.

 We were happy with the lodges that you selected and the food at each one was very good. The only accommodation that wasn't great was the Ngulia where the bathroom and bedroom could do with being refurbished, but as compensation the views from the bedroom, swimming pool and dining area were fantastic. We especially like the last 3 lodges, but our favourite, which probably doesn't come as any surprise was the Mara Serena. What fantastic views, great rooms, great swimming pool and excellent food.

 Our enjoyment of the safari experience was hugely enhanced by having Patrick as our guide/driver and we would like you to pass on our thanks and best wishes to him.

 And finally, many thanks to you for arranging the safari. As you may remember Dave and Lynda were very apprehensive and nervous about booking a safari other than with a mainstream UK tour operator. Every time that we see them they mention what a super experience the whole safari was.......they are even talking about maybe doing something similar in a few years time.
