All days and trip were memorable, but above all watching elephants crossing the river 30 metres away from us having lunch in Old Mondoro was the most. We are definitely satisfied.

I think that The Book Bus project is a brilliant, useful and original idea. Kids and teachers were really happy to see us and to receive the books. Delivering school books in a place where they are scarce and expensive make a great difference for the students.

Working with the young orphaned animals, helping to provide their day-to-day care, was a truly unforgettable experience. Seeing wild Lions, Leopards, Elephants (and many more) up close on safari was fantastic, surpassing all my expectations.

Most memorable was definitely horse riding in and around Lake Malawi. It was soo much fun. Or maybe bush camping in the Serengeti.

I booked great accommodation in Malawi (Nkhata bay) through the website. The fact that the band 'Beat Life' were there some of the time (before performing at the Lake of Stars festival), made it so interesting and lively.

The most exciting part was eeing the big 5 in Ngangongoro; watching a leopard hunt in South Luangwa..A great way of seeing a lot of different places and trying out a lot of things in a relatively short period.

Returned tired (in the last days I did abseil, rafting, micro light, travelled for 36 hours,..) but really enjoyed it! The most memorable parts of the holiday; saw a lion on a tree, the lake with hippos in new year, the new friends.
