Learn MoreAmazing job on the Kruger Challenger, your team was amazing in handling all of the details, and “challenges”. Jan did a great job on the Cape Town tour.
Most of my earlier travelling has been of an entirely independent nature. Indeed, my previous experience of 'organised' travel has been restircted to a single occasion, one that left much to be desired. Happily, 'Atlas to Sahara' reset the balance, and provided a tour and an experience that enabled a most favourable revision of my consideration. I enjoyed 'Atlas to Sahara' enormously, enabled in no small measure to the quality of the leadership. Both David and Rob gave of their enormous knowledge and experience in a manner that enjoyed a splendid combination of scholarship and humour, thus providing information and entertainment in equal measure. They were professional in the extreme, easy-going in their manner, and simply excellent company. I believe that the physical accompaniment of advancing years will dictate that my future ornithological aspirations and adventures will depend increasingly upon the good offices of professional operators. 'Atlas to Sahara' has enabled a further step in that direction.
Fantastic trip with excellent guide, Adam Walleyn, and wonderful driver, Miguel, who looked after us very well.
I thoroughly enjoyed the 2025 Birds and Snow Leopards tour with Peter Kaestner. My life list grew by 62 birds (favorites included Little Owl, Sakar Falcon, and rare Siberian White Crane), and, yes, we did see the Snow Leopard, as well as all the other major large mammals, including Argali, Ibex, Saiga, Wapiti, Wild Horse and Grey Wolf. Most of the birds and mammals were too distant to see well with binoculars, but Peter and our other guide, Istvan, set up scopes and were very patient in assuring that everyone got a good view. In Hustai National Park, I photographed Red Deer that could be added to the Rockjumper list. On a post-tour visit to the Natural History Museum in Ulaanbaatar, I saw all the birds and animals up close, not live but a nice supplement to the real thing. The accommodations in the ger camps were surprisingly comfortable for “camping.” I give special appreciation to the kitchen staff, who prepared for me delicious vegetation meals. It was a special treat to be served hot lunch at over 10,000 feet, as we sat looking for the Snow Leopard. The drivers are also to be commended for their skill in negotiating the rough mountain roads and quickly fixing a flat tire as we raced up to the Snow Leopard. Thanks to Peter and all the Rockjumper staff who made Mongolia such a memorable experience.
Manuela Zapata was an excellent guide. She knows the songs and calls of the birds in the region very well. She finds the birds very quick and points its positiion to the clients very good. The tour was very good organized. She is a lovely guide.
This was my first Rockjumper tour. Mandy Talpas as the tour guide was tops! Friendly, clear, informative each and every day was her norm. Every day was a good day and the pelagic trip day was my favorite!
