Client Testimonials

Just to say a really BIG thank you to you and all at Travelshoppe for making our trip to Kenya so memorable! We all had a great time and also enjoyed meeting two of you. Besides Serian, Samburu was really nice! Also, Nikheel had a great six-week “internship” with Alex Walker at Serian. Rekha and I feel that he has learned so much from the experience both about life and about himself. We are really grateful to you for finding this opportunity for him. As he said himself, HE WILL BE BACK, next year. We appreciated the speed and efficiency with which the travel delay from Samburu to Malindi was resolved as was the move from Scorpio to Driftwood. I intend to write a “piece” about the “Fawlty Towers of Kenya” on my blog in the next week or two!

Rajat joins me in thanking you for having organized such a wonderful & memorable trip for all of us to Masai Mara.

We reached home safe and sound and very jet-lagged. I don’t know how to thank you and Travel shoppe for our amazing trip. From start to finish it was just incredible. You guys really went out of your way to ensure that this was a trip of a lifetime! The boys, my husband and I had the most wonderful time. Vacations with adult children can be challenging, but this was perfect. Thanks again.

Our holidays were amazing !!! Thanks so much for all your support. It has been one of the MOST unforgettable experiences in our lives. The camp was just perfect … the tent, staff, game drives, food, everything !!! Definitely, I would love to go back there with my family and friends. Again … Asante !!!!

We can’t thank you enough for taking care of us in Kenya. It was truly an amazing experience, especially the Bush Farewell dinner. Joseph is a very good guide and driver and we really appreciated his efforts to make our trip memorable. Please give him our regards. We look forward to visiting Africa soon and explore the continent. Both Shobha and I felt so much at home and reminded of us India. We will be in touch for our next trip.

We recently got back from our wonderful trip. What a great experience! We wanted to thank you very much because from the beginning of this project we felt that we were in the best hands. And we were right. Everything was great, and we have the best memories of people and places that will always stay with each one of us. Very kind regards, Carolina.

We’ve always had amazing experiences when we book our holidays through Travelshoppe. From Kigio-Naivasha,Tortillis camp- Amboseli to Karen Blixen Camp-Maasai Mara we traveled like VIPs just for booking through Travelshoppe. Their fast correspondence, competitive prices, and friendly staff are the Travelshoppe. We have also had fantastic services when booking our overseas flights.

I appreciate it was a wonderful holiday for us. My wife enjoyed every bit, pick up times were accurate, Hotel good and tour guide perfect, especially one stands out by the name Sharzad Ahmad for Desert safari and city tour. Thanks a lot and best regards. We shall definitely book with you again.

This is a brief note on behalf of my sister Dr. Riffat M. Zaman and myself to thank you for your assistance to Mehmood Sahib, my travel agent in Karachi, in making our recent trip to Tanzania and Kenya enjoyable and memorable. We also appreciate your personal involvement in ensuring that everything went smoothly while we were in East Africa. Moving to more pleasant matters, we were really pleased with the excellent driver/guides that were provided for us. We would appreciate it if you could share with them, and relevant parties, the following comments –(Tanzania): He is a delightful guide who “connects” with the animals, and also has a great deal of knowledge about African birds in addition to the animals we saw. I love birds so this was a special bonus for us. Hadji is trustworthy, polite, a good driver, and exceptionally helpful. He is bright and curious, and also a good conversationalist. We learned a great deal from him not only about the nature around us but also about the people of Tanzania. Hadji took special pains to make sure we saw all that was humanly possible for one week in Tanzania. We would recommend him highly to you for future visitors to that country. (Kenya): The guide was an excellent, confident driver and we were glad to have him at the wheel as part of the road from Nakuru to the Mara was in pretty poor condition. He is also a good guide, knowledgeable about the animals and their habitat. We particularly appreciated the books on birds that he carries with him in the car which helped us to identify many uncommon birds we came across. During our stay in Mara, Our guide managed to locate for us the “big five” including an extraordinary encounter with a leopard. Trustworthy and always on time – we would recommend your guide highly to anyone who wishes to visit Kenya.

Many thanks for your recommendation for us to do our brief holiday at Sweetwaters Tented Camp. Thank you to you and Seema for the prompt arrangements at such short notice! The experience from my family was simply awesome….excellent customer service, personalized, visible leadership….in short, true value for money! To cap it all, we even saw lions from our tent!…. a little scary but exciting at the same time! I would recommend Sweetwaters to any person who seeks to be at home away from home! Similarly, I will not be going anywhere else for holiday packages! Travelshoppe it is!

I wish to thank you for the excellent arrangements during our stay in Kenya, all of us three were most pleased with everything. Nicholas is an eminent guide and driver, he knows the places where to find the animals, and he is a careful driver (appreciated by us in the horrible Nairobi traffic!). If you would like to have an estimate about the hotels and stay in Nakuru Lion Hill and Mara Serena, I will try to figure some impressions. Nakuru had a most friendly, genuinely friendly staff in the hotel, you felt welcome from the moment you stepped out from the car. Sometimes we had communication problems, but nothing was ever serious. All the meals were almost five stars, well prepared, fresh and nice. The rooms were comfortable, and very silent for good night sleeps. The range of animals was fine, unfortunately also the mosquitos?. Mara Serena had rooms of higher class, up to perfection, also very clean. The food was very good, overall very beautiful and nice. It will be a pleasure for me to recommend Travelshoppe for friends who intend to come to Kenya. Best regards, also to Nick, Millions of thanks for all your help. The safari, all transfers, and the drivers were all very professionally organized. Next time we come to Kenya we will for sure contact you again.

I shall start with a big THANK YOU for all the help and time spend with us…for all the wishes to become true. Travelshoppe is a reliable travel agency and always ready to help out! It’s good to have someone who give’s your advice, suggestions and puts together the best package that suits all the tastes. With her help, we were able to spend quality time in Mombasa- north coast at Serena and south coast at Leopard Beach, in Amboseli at Serena and Ol Tukai and Masai Mara at Mara Serena. I shall mention also that we have used Travelshoppe for almost 4 years and I have no complaints about them! Thank You and always I will recommend Travelshoppe! Wish you all the best.

Hi- we had a great time! Kole Kole was the correct recommendation – also went down to Shimoni for the day which was wild ( the weather ) Staff, food, etc outstanding. Families are already working out when they can go again! The guide on safari was really good. Days drive on the Sunday from Ngorongoro to Mara was 9 hours! But worth it when we got there as the Wildebeest etc were just arriving. Thanks so much for organizing it.

A huge thumbs up from all of us. We thoroughly enjoyed Mara Engai and Masai Mara and especially our friends John and Dianne Aaron who were visiting Kenya and going on safari for the first time. Although it was my first and I don’t have anything similar with which to compare, I don’t see how much more could have been done to accommodate us and to make us feel so very special. It was a great choice.

I just want to thank you for the excellent trip you organized. Our bookings and stay was absolutely flawless. I wish we had more professional travel agents like Travelshoppe.

We had a great stay in Dubai. Everything was good including the hotel services. The itinerary was well organized and we had a lot of fun. We plan to go back sooner than later! I’ll get back to you for more tickets and recommendations. Thanks again for that!

The safari went very well. We loved Loisaba- both camps. Thanks for helping us sort out the trip.

Just a quick email to thank you for all of your support during our recent holiday. Everything went very well and the holiday was perfect. We both had a great time and are now back at work. Thank you for an excellent holiday service – it is greatly appreciated. Till next time.

I got back today from the Elementaita Serena camp. Everything went very well indeed. The trip to and from was fantastic and the driver is very professional, to say the least. The stay at the camp was very very nice, everything about the camp is marvelous. I thank the Travel Shoppe for enabling me to have such a fulfilling experience and you also for bearing with me during the period of arranging for the trip.

Thank you, Lucy, for your mail. The trip to Amboseli was smooth. The driver guide was very cooperative. He kept time on the first day and we were able to make it for lunch at the hotel. The game drives were just great. We were privileged to see plenty of animals and birds. The accommodation at Oltukai was good. We can’t complain. We will definitely consider Travelshoppe when we wish to travel next.

Thank you for the excellent organization of the trip. I totally agree with Pravin’s comments.

Just a note to say thank you for all the wonderful arrangements you made for our trip to Masai Mara. Your guide, Joseph was very helpful and made our trip very comfortable and enjoyable along the road trip. Our stay at Interpids Camp was comfortable & our safari guide, Joseph Kangethe Mugwe (JK) made our visit to the Masai Mara most memorable. I just wanted to share some photos with you on our trip. I hope to be back in Kenya again one day. Once again, thank you.

We have been using them for the last 4 years, and customer service has always been good, responsive, and fares are always competitive. I can only recommend Travelshoppe for trip planning.

You were extremely helpful throughout our vacation planning. We really appreciate all your help and will definitely keep you in mind while planning our future vacations. Thanks again for your excellent customer service.

Happy new year! The trip was fantastic for me and my family. Your contact in Dubai Ms. Marzeena, was always at hand readily to sort and iron out all the small hiccups along the way. In a nutshell, we were satisfied with the holiday experience. Thank you for your good and honest services.
