John, you have been the most extraordinary safari guide we have ever met.
We have travelled the world but your professional manner and experience really brought us together as friends although we were among a group of your guests on safari.
Your teaching about wildlife, African culture and people truly added to the great experience we encountered for our 18 day safari with you, well done!!

My wife and I had one of the best and most wonderful of holidays in Africa to talk about back home in USA.
Your professional service, beautiful accommodation, excellent food, fantastic wildlife viewing in all National Parks we went to -and not forgetting the great gin & tonic sunset cruise on the Zambezi river was the safari highlight for us, we will be back soon.

John, brilliant safari you have offered us for this entire trip and cannot wait to see our photos back home.
Three nights in Okavango delta (Botswana) was out of hand the most thrilling adventure we ever had.
You are best of the best.
