This was one of our best trips ever This was one of our best trips ever! It was well worth the cost of the trip. The staff was exceptional. Russ and Rhonda both did an outstanding job in organization and Russ did an Incredible job in teaching us about the Canyon. Another special part of the trip to me was the times of people sharing their testimonies; I think it formed a closeness in the group because someone else story encouraged others and help some to see that we all need love, care and support from others.

Our African safari was the first time… Our African safari was the first time Rhonda had ever taken a group to Africa. We learned that "Westerners have watches, Africans have time." Not every activity planned, occurred on time or as planned. But, I feel, that Rhonda tried to accommodate as many of the group's (41 in all) particular wishes as possible. I do think some information should be communicated up front regarding the differing room accommodations, and discounted differential computed for those willing to bunk in the outskirts of camp. The meals were phenomenal as we had a master chef of native game preparing every delicacy. (Lodge should invest in a large coffee pot, though, for availability of fresh coffee rather than instant.) The weather was perfect and we were adequately advised to pack accordingly. Also helpful tips were communicated regarding options to do during layover in England. All in all, I think Rhonda did a fabulous job coordinating all the activities and keeping us informed of changes as they came up in itinerary.

Except for a few items Except for a few items, everything was quite excellent. Those "items" were: 1. Upon arriving in advance of the official tour I would have expected ground transportation to be coordinated. 2. The hotel in London should have been closed to the City center to allow for walking around instead of additional cab fares to get around. 3. While I understand hotel room size in Europe is an issue, a couple of the Hotel rooms were unreasonably small. Otherwise, the ground transportation, length of daily travel, meals, tour operators, etc. were all excellent.

Accommodations and food were… Accommodations and food were disappointing for the price.

We traveled to Ethiopia with Living… We traveled to Ethiopia with Living Passages and had an incredible trip. This destination is still building it's tourism sector. Living Passages found us the best places they could and took us to the best sites imaginable. We are VERY happy with our trip and would recommend the Ethiopia trip to anyone who is an experienced traveler. All problems were handled without us even knowing. We had great guides and the best vehicles available. Obviously, they know their destinations!!!!
