Ralph Perrella review 17 May 20075 star rating

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?


Too many to list, but if I had to pick one it would be finding a leopard and her cub with a 4.5m python that they had just killed. The python was swollen with a small antelope that it had just killed. Working at the Karongwe Game Reserve was a truly amazing experience.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?


Dive in. Do as much as you can. Enthusiasm will be rewarded with an amazing experience. Come prepared for the weather and some sacrifices in creature comforts, but it's all worth it.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?


Yes. We were specifically working to conserve animal habitat and manage small game reserves in a sustainable fashion. We spent many hours education students at a local school about the work we did and why it is important.

4. Any other comments?


This operator is a fantastic organization. I would enthusiastically recommend this South Africa expedition and their organization to anyone.
