IN THEIR OWN WORDS – Just back from Kenya – a report back from 2AFRIKA’s valued passengers

NEW YORK, NY
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Hi Ken,

I'm writing to tell you just how much my husband and I enjoyed our safari to Kenya. Everything went so smoothly. It was truly better than I ever anticipated. We saw the "Big 5", never got stuck in the mud (but very close several times!), had a wonderful safari guide and were so pleased with all the accommodations. What an incredibly beautiful and interesting country. I went through my pictures last night...several very good ones. I'm most pleased.

Thanks for all you help in arranging everything. I will certainly recommend 2AFRIKA, INC. to any of our friends planning a trip to Africa.

Happy Holidays!

CL

Hi Kenneth:

We had a wonderful trip to your country! I emailed Adel and thanked her for arranging the Soweto tour and the safari to the Pilanesberg National Park. They were both so good! The tour guides were especially good and informative.

The Kruger National Park was superb. We saw the ‘Big 4’. The leopard was shy! I took about 1000 photos!

The Protea Hotel Rosebank was fantastic with excellent service and delicious food. The Protea Hotel Kruger Gate was equally fantastic in a lovely setting. The S.A. Safari Club was in a nice setting, but the electricity went out and there were no outlets for us to use. It would have been a problem had we stayed the week. Thanks for changing us to the Protea Hotel Rosebank. My husband ventured out to the mall which was right down the block.

It was a trip of a lifetime and we loved it!

Dankie, Kenneth!
