GBEast Africa We absolutely loved our trip to Rwanda, Kenya, and Tanzania...from the gorillas to the chimps and everything in-between! Our guides were so personable, knowledgeable, and such good wildlife finders. All of our lodges were charming with such hospitable staff. The Gorilla Safari Company/Opulent Africa customized our trip to pack it full of wildlife for us. They know and love Africa and care so much about what they do. My husband and I were able to travel with my sister and her husband, and we have memories to last a lifetime. Thank you John, Amanda, and Jill!

GBABSOLUTELY OVERCOME with JOY My recent African Safari adventure, meticulously orchestrated by Opulent Africa under the unwavering guidance of John, was nothing short of a transformative journey through the heart and soul of this incredible continent. From the moment we touched down in Nairobi on August 22nd to our reluctant departure from Cape Town on September 12th, every day was an awe-inspiring revelation woven with thoughtfulness and precision. John, recognizing our craving for an unparalleled experiences, single-handedly crafted an itinerary that exceeded all expectations. His intuitive understanding of our desires was evident in every carefully chosen detail, leaving me, a self-confessed perfectionist and often times extremely OCD in nature, in awe of the premium attention to detail. The surprises at each accommodation were like sprinkles on an already delectable dessert, enhancing the depth of each outing. Navigating through this captivating landscape was made seamless and stress-free through a user-friendly travel app, a true lifesaver that allowed us to relish every moment without fretting and stressing about logistics. In one 24 hour period we were on 4 planes, so you can only imagine how important “stress free” means. The private drivers who escorted us from one enchanting destination to another added personality and many laughs along the way. As we traversed from place to place, we were enveloped in an aura of joy and profound happiness, manifesting in tears of elation and emotional overflow each day. (Finding words to describe the emotion is still difficult to properly express) The people we encountered, the majestic animals we observed, and the vastness of the Mara Triangle, the mountain gorillas and the bush of Kenya, left me utterly speechless, forging an emotional connection that defies words. A particular highlight of this remarkable journey was the time spent with the people of the Samburu Tribe, the hosts and guides at Sarara Camp, where their genuine warmth and hospitality left an indelible mark on my heart. The Ngare Serian Game Drivers and Guides heightened our experience, imparting a wealth of knowledge and making each safari adventure unforgettable. The Zimbabwe Zambezi River Lodge, Cape Town's Silo Hotel, and the two incredible days spent trekking gorillas in Uganda's Bwindi were nothing short of extraordinary. This voyage was a life-altering odyssey that has left an indelible imprint on all 4 of us. The memories of the countries we explored will forever be etched in my thoughts, a kaleidoscope of vibrant and unforgettable moments. For orchestrating the best 22 days of my existence, I extend my deepest gratitude to John and his remarkable team at Opulent Africa. I struggle to articulate just how much this journey has meant to me. Thank you, John, for being the person behind this most meaningful trip.

CAOpulent Africa did a wonderful job for us - exceeded all expectations! Opulent Africa did a wonderful job for us. They made suggestions on destinations and particular camps and hotels that might be of interest. They listened to us when we described the type of experiences we hoped to have and we were really happy with our trip. We stayed at two different locations in Botswana, one in Zambia and one in South Africa all of which exceeded expectations. All of our transfers were seamless. We would definitely use them again and recommend them without hesitation.

GBFirst time on safari I contacted Opulent Africa and spoke to John about safari in Namibia. To be honest I didn't give him much to work with- it was a case of "here's my budget what can you do for us?" (and our budget was on the low side, by safari standards). However, within no time, John had put together what looked like a fabulous itinerary & then Faith worked her magic and made it all happen. It was as simple & as stress-free as that. We had a wonderful time on safari in Namibia-it was beyond words. In fact we are seriously considering heading back to the African continent next year & our first port of call shall be Opulent Africa. Thanks again. Sarah & Peter Ward.
