点评:We went on a 10-day big-5 safari with Geoff Mayes and his Amazing Africa Tours. We started in Ol Pejeta, went to the Oserengoni Sanctuary and finished at the Amazing Mara Camp in the Masai Mara. What do we have to say about our trip? LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION.
The first LOCATION: Geoff put together a superb itinerary for us. We were all struck by the diversity of Kenya as each stop was so different from the last, and each had its own treasures to offer. Such cool destinations. Geoff's experience in Kenya clearly paid off when it came to the itinerary. We would have missed so much if we tried to put it together ourselves.
The second LOCATION: Throughout the 10 days, we ended up finding ourselves in the right place at just the right time. Geoff was able to negotiate with a massive bull elephant to let us spend time with him as the sun went down in Ol Pej. We found ourselves completely alone with a Leopard with its kill in a tree in Oserengoni. And we were constantly the first car to the nearby prides in the Mara. He has great staff and great instincts, and they help get us where we needed to be. Having a private guide paid off here 110%.
And then the last LOCATION has to be in reference to his camp in the Mara. We would wake up, have a quick coffee, and within 15 minutes be with a pride of lions. The next day, after a 15 minute drive from the camp, we would be with a different pride of lions. It really seemed like the location was hand picked for convenience and location to Mara's treasures. As if the location wasn't enough, the camp is awesome - wonderful tented camp with great staff.
You get the full service with Geoff and Amazing Africa Tours. Logistics were incredibly smooth and Geoff was helpful, friendly, super informed and a delight to be around (despite his constant puns, 1 in 5 are funny....yes we kept track....hahah). Having him as our guide truly did give us the experience of a lifetime. We all think that he is the real deal and is a big player in the safari world. Get in now before Geoff becomes too big and busy!
翻译:我们与 Geoff Mayes 和他的 Amazing Africa Tours 一起进行了为期 10 天的 big-5 野生动物园。我们从 Ol Pejeta 出发,前往 Oserengoni Sanctuary,最后在马赛马拉的 Amazing Mara Camp 结束。关于我们的旅行,我们有什么要说的?位置位置位置。
第一个地点:杰夫为我们安排了一个很棒的行程。我们都被肯尼亚的多样性所震撼,因为每一站都与上一站截然不同,每一站都有自己的宝藏可以提供。如此酷的目的地。当谈到行程时,杰夫在肯尼亚的经历显然得到了回报。如果我们试图自己把它放在一起,我们会错过很多。
第二个地点:在这 10 天里,我们最终发现自己在正确的时间出现在了正确的地点。 Geoff 能够与一头巨大的公象谈判,让我们在 Ol Pej 的太阳下山时与他共度时光。在奥塞伦戈尼的一棵树上,我们发现自己完全孤立无援,一只豹正在猎杀它。我们一直是马拉附近骄傲的第一辆车。他拥有优秀的员工和敏锐的直觉,他们帮助我们到达我们需要去的地方。有私人导游在这里得到了 110% 的回报。
然后最后一个位置必须参考他在马拉的营地。我们会醒来,喝杯咖啡,然后在 15 分钟内与一群狮子在一起。第二天,从营地驱车15分钟后,我们将与不同的狮群相遇。看起来这个位置真的像是为了方便和玛拉宝藏的位置而手工挑选的。好像位置还不够,营地很棒 - 很棒的帐篷营地,员工很棒。
您可以通过 Geoff 和 Amazing Africa Tours 获得全方位服务。物流非常顺畅,Geoff 乐于助人、友善、见多识广并且很高兴能在身边(尽管他经常说双关语,但五分之一的人都很有趣……是的,我们一直在追踪……哈哈)。有他作为我们的向导确实给了我们一生的经历。我们都认为他是真正的交易者,是野生动物园世界的重要参与者。在杰夫变得太大太忙之前,现在就进去吧!
