Learn MoreThe Kenya Mega was a very pleasant experience. We had an especially congenial group with some very good observers. Stephan did a very good job of running the trip, and it ended up exceeding my expectations (I am picky. I have seen over 8M birds, and have done a lot of traveling). Most of the lodges were wonderful, and the Kenyan people we met were very friendly.
This tour met all of my (very high) expectations. But that was because of the excellence of Andre, the absolutely awesome local guide Leons, as well as the exceptional drivers. Having drivers I feel safe with is key to me for me to be able to enjoy a trip - especially with so much driving time and such road conditions as Tanzania presents. I appreciated the little things like Andre providing complimentary snacks from time to time. The local ground agent company that Rockjumper use is clearly up there with the best. I saw almost all of the birds that I wanted to see - and I can’t ask for more. That would not have happened without Andre and Leons exceptional ears and eyes. I also really appreciate when a guide works in harmony with a local guide - which is what was the case here. This tour has reopened my eyes to Rockjumper - following a disappointing previous tour. I love how Rockjumper provide a clear traffic lights indicator of tour conditions, but I just wish people would read this and know their own limitations. Thank you to Andre, Leons, Njanu, Emanuel and the office team.
This is an outstanding tour which showcases many geographical sites, wonderful birds and some fantastic mammals. Etosha NP is a jewel but so are several other places we visited, notably Erongo. Our lodges were all really comfortable and some were superb. Julian is an outstanding guide: very knowledgeable, pleasant, and committed to making his guests have an exceptional time. We have done a lot of trips with Rockjumper but this is certainly one of the very best and I recommend it very highly.
Paul and I would like to say how very much we enjoyed the tour. Glen and Francis worked wonderfully well together and very very hard to get us on all the birds. We loved the completely unexpected rustic luxury of the Zaina lodge in Mole…everything worked…hot water…toilets, sinks. With two fans in the room and screened windows we were able to keep the air con usage down as it also worked! Glen had to work to keep me on track to look for birds as I was so head over heels and very distracted by walking amongst the elephants! Our ranger, Magit? was wonderful and so kindly indulged my elephant gawking. Although I am not a fan of “selfies” I have about a dozen photos taken by others of me and my ellies. What a magical memory! We would highly recommend the Ibis Styles Hotel as a first night as well a pre and post tour hotel. Tour group leaders should be ready to warn folks to not expect that kind of accommodation for the rest of the tour. Rockjumper rocks it again!
The trip was excellent in every way. Dusan is an enthusiastic, expert bird guide who got everyone on the birds and has a great rapport with all clients. He is always smiling! The logistics and planning of all the detailed travel was handled by Sebastian - who did an outstanding job of making the impossible look easy. He was always accessible to answer questions or for helping us. He was also a great bird guide and his knowledge of history was amazing. He and Dusan worked together seamlessly. The accommodations were excellent (especially the Culture Manor in Quito - amazing!) and food top-notch.
Adam Walleyn was fantastic, as was the local guide, Ramiro. The driver, Justo, was also exceptional. Fantastic tour - great birds, accommodation and food.
