As a conservation photographer, I spent months researching and looking for the perfect opportunity for a photo safari for myself and my husband. I found that with Africa Geographic! Christian Boix worked with me to arrange for a magical 8 days with Sentinel Mara Camp on the banks of the Mara River and was so helpful every step of the way. We wanted lots of animals and few people, and we found that in the peaceful and beautiful Mara Camp in the shoulder season. Everything was beautifully planned and executed and the camp itself was so perfect-- we can't wait to go back! We had our own excellent driver-guide, Benson, who was such a pleasure to get to know and to spend long days with in the Mara. As a wildlife photographer I like to spend long and patient hours watching the wildlife and waiting for interesting behaviors. We found a like-minded companion in Benson, who would put me in the perfect position for my photographs and always listened to my wishes. We shared our respect of the wildlife and the belief of good ethics as visitors to the animals’ habitat as well, and I was so impressed with his instincts for the animals' behavior and being able to predict their movements. I learned so much from him and was impressed with his professionalism. I am going through my thousands of photos from our incredible experiences from every day of our visit.

Back at camp, you can't ask for a more beautiful setting in a peaceful forest, literally just 2 minutes away from a sunrise view of giraffes, elephants, cheetah, buffalo, hippos, impala, topi, dikers, serval, vervet monkeys, baboons, and lions. That was all just in our “backyard"!

The camp is run entirely off of solar power and I appreciated all of the incredible details –– from a completely plastic free camp, to so many small comforts in the spacious tent, to our amazing helper Jon, who cleaned our tent impeccably every day while we were out, tailored our showers to exactly our preferred temperature, and made sure we had our coffee and biscuits at the early hour we needed them to get on the trail before sunrise. Every meal, whether a picnic on the road or an elegant dinner in camp, was delicious and we were impressed with every person’s attentiveness to our wishes and dietary restrictions. Adding to the camp magic was the constant presence of hippos in the river below us and the evening and morning serenade of hippos grunting and splashing.

Looking for a perfect safari experience? We can’t recommend Africa Geographic and Sentinel Mara Camp highly enough! (Note: we are also very impressed with the conservation work and community support that AG is doing!)

Africa Geographic and more specifically Christian were very professional, with great advice and flexibility when setting up the trip. I would always go for them again.

This safari on foot through Tsavo National Park was the trip of a lifetime, expertly enabled by Christian Boix at AG, who assisted me assiduously from the initial enquiry through the whole administrative process to the final planning stage right up to departure. I cannot praise his efforts highly enough. The safari itself was an unforgettable experience. I'm immensely grateful to AG and to Tropical-Ice, who managed everything on the ground in Kenya, for making this wonderful safari possible.

Christian developed a thorough itinerary that covered all of our areas of interest. Shortly before departing on our trip, there was a major political crisis that necessitated a change to two days of our schedule. Christian managed those changes effectively and ensured that our adventures were still amazing. Our driver/guide, Lucky, anticipated all of our needs and managed every moment of our trip. Recommend this company without hesitation.

Two fabulous lodges: Enkewa and Saruni Samburu, wonderful service, great guides. Breathtaking accommodation and scenery at Saruni. New, unusual mammals for us and dozens of new birds. Teenage grandchildren loved the whole adventure. Well arranged by Africa Geographic as usual

Excellent and well organised tour of Rwanda and Uganda

Christian from Africa Geographic Travel was really good in helping us with a special occasion safari. His advice on selection of camps in the Okavango was really good. All arrangements worked well and it was a great experience.
Thanks
Gavin & Christine

Nadia helped us design a fantastic 17 day safari adventure across three countries (on short notice). Everything worked seamlessly, from flights to properties to transfers. More importantly, she responded immediately to any questions we had mid-journey. We could not be happier with our decision to work with Africa Geographic. Amazing experience, with no friction.

We had a great experience with guidance from Christian from Africa Geographic, He helped us plan, customize, and experience the Ultimate Primate Safari. We saw gorillas, monkeys, chimpanzees, and whale sharks in their natural settings. Our wonderful guide, Gaston, helped us enjoy East Central Africa with personalized attention and care
Thank you for a truly memorable journey

Excellent service. Helped us plan our exploration of the Karoo. Everything worked smoothly. No issues at all.
Attention to detail was first class.

We had a marvelous family trip during christmas holidays. AG tailor designed a perfect trip for us. The choice of lodges in the Kruger area was very good and well sequenced; we met very professional and smily staff everywhere. The accomodation in Cape Town was very comfortable and well located. The communication with AG staff was also very fluid and efficient. Thank you Risette and Christian. We highly recommend AG travel agency!

The wildlife was fascinating. Our guide Paul was wonderful. We loved the staff in camp, particularly Pula and MK, and were really happy to have visited.
We loved camping and the outdoor areas.

The mokoro was really great and we enjoyed the boat on the Chobe River. The experience was superb.

Our guide Paul was a delight. He was informative, helpful, funny and told us the backstory on many of the animals along the way. I learned a lot from him, and we enjoyed his company very much. He has the patience of Job!

The highlights were the animals. Watching wild dogs after a kill and seeing them following a herd of wildebeest. Seeing so many lions and listening to Paul tell us what he knew about each pride. The elephants were magnificent and the birds were fantastic. The wildlife from the insects to the mega-mammals were of course the highlights. Indescribably beautiful. Also: the baobobs!

We completely agree with Jane Allin’s comments, the friend that we traveled with and who suggested this trip to us. It was the first of its kind in our experience and exceeded our expectations in every way. Peter especially enjoyed the extraordinary opportunities to photograph such wonderful sights. Rosemary learnt a great deal about the nature and wildlife of the areas visited and appreciated the expertise of the guides who attended upon us. Christian arranged the trip in the perfect order, with the exciting mobile camping safari for the first nine days, followed up by a more luxurious experience in the Lodges. With many thanks Peter and Rosemary.

Our trip to Zambia Lower Zambesi Parc and Southern Luangwa Valley and Victoria Falls was unforgettable.Never seen so much game in 9 days.Sausage Tree Camp and Lions Camp were superb.Lunch in the Zambesi at Sausage Tree Camp and in the Bush at Lions Camp were unforgettable.Victoria Falls Hotel remains one of my favourite hotels in the world.Christian,as usual, organised the trip and all worked excellently.It must have been about the fifth or sixth trip organised by Christian for us.

The experience we had from the beginning to end exceeded our expectations. Christian knew all that was needed to ensure our seamless travel and it was surely an awesome experience. The staff at Sentinel was very friendly. The rooms were clean and comfortable except finer details in the rooms like checking that glasses used are replaced with clean ones or washed to be used again
Meals with chef Joshua was something we always looked forward to. Peter, the manager , was exceptional. I will definitely recommend you to my friends and family.

One thing that I did not understand is the staff that is 100% male. This we noticed by finer details of housekeeping that were not taken care of throughout.

Our second trip with Africa Geographic to Samburu and Amboseli in Kenya was well organised by Christian, as was our first trip to Masaai Mara. Our Safari-link flights all went smoothly and our accommodation excellent. The Surana Buffalo Springs lodge at Samburu has a beautiful setting overlooking the Ewaso and Isiolo river confluence with units having their own plunge pools for cooling off in the heat. Staff very friendly, food great and our guide Mick excellent - especially his knowledge with the unfamiliar wild life at Samburu. The Ol Tukai lodge is within the Amboseli National Park with a view of Kilimanjaro, more busy than Samburu, but staff once again friendly and buffet meals good. Our guide Isaac very knowledgeable and gave us an excellent overview of the variety of game and diverse landscape of the area. We would certainly use Africa Geographic again.

Working with Christian and his Africa Geo team, we had planned out a two week mobile safari in Botswana's Moremi, Khwai, Savuti and Chobe Riverfront. We were very happy with the experience, and most especially our guide, Moagi Robson and his team. On previous trips (not through Africa Geo) we've had both wonderful, and not so wonderful guides. Robson was one of the best trackers we've met, to the extent that other guides shadowed us as he tracked leopards, lions and wild dogs. We couldn't imagine returning to Botswana without Robson as our guide.

The accommodations were comfortable, the meals were great (too much food for two people) but it was the team (Robson, Mike, Aaron, Steve and Philip) that really made the trip special.

I should also mention that we had initially reached out to a couple of other operators for this trip and their quotes were eye wateringly high. Happy that we found Christian who worked within our budget while also delivering exactly what we were looking for. Excellent value for money.

Many thanks again to Christian and Africa Geo, we are already planning out the bones of a next adventure we want to work with them on.

First, I have to admit that I have never been to Africa, nor have I been on a Safari. Christen was the first person that I worked with in setting up the Safari. I cannot express my sincere appreciation for all the work he did for me.He scheduled my reservations at the hotel, the flight reservations on air link to the reserve as well as clearly explaining all my questions concerning the art safari with Allison Nichols.
I was so surprised at the accommodations at the lodge, the food was outstanding, the service was great, and the tour of the animals just got better day after day.
Both Gideon and Eric (guide and tracker) were very knowledgeable and friendly. There was no time during the trip that I felt uneasy being out amongst the animals. (even when I dropped my phone and Eric had to retrieve it.)
Alison , our art instructor, was great in demonstrating how to do watercolors, and also and sketching the animals while we were out on tour.
I would highly recommend any safari that was put together with Africa geographical and/or Alison Nicholas.

The ladies I met, were really really nice. Villiers is amazing and I met Carl.. what an awesome and knowledgeable young man.... Then all your staff working on site, were absolutely marvelous. Nothing was too much trouble. We had 2 ladies who were gluten intolerant and they were served such good meals... no problem at all. My first time on a walking safari... very different... My only complaint was the heat and the flies.. I really struggled with that... but that of course, was not anybody's fault. Our flights in the little "mosquito" plane was a first for me too. All our pick ups and drop offs went smoothly. If you are an animal enthusiast, do try this safari. If you need advice about your camera, Villiers will sort all your problems out. Highly recommended.

Our trip to South Africa, Botswana and Victoria Falls truly exceeded our expectations. Christian diligently worked with us to put together a great itinerary for our first trip to Africa. We appreciated Christian's availability and follow up. We certainly recommend Africa Geographic for a great African experience.
