As a party of fifteen, I can honestly say that Red Rhino surpassed all of our expectations. Every effort was made to accommodate our requests from the planning stage to the actual safari, taking into consideration our finances and varied interests. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Red Rhino to anyone interested in an unforgettable travel experience.

Great Adventure! That is the only way to describe my experience in Africa with Red Rhino Tours. From the start to the finish, this group was superb. I had the most fun of all trips I have ever had. I have been from Alaska to Viet Nam and without reservation I can say this topped all my experiences. The guides were knowledgeable, the support great and the people superb. At one park I damaged one of my lenses and Red Rhino's people bent over backwards to help me find what I needed to fix the lens. I could not more highly recommend this outfit.

"Red Rhino arranged 2 wonderful safaris for us in 2001. They catered to our tight schedules, individual interests, and limited budgets with grace and cordiality. Red Rhino showed us urban and rural life without risking our physical or gastrointestinal safety, and recruited a charming ornithological expert from the National Museum to guide us. Sure, we saw the Big 5 and got plenty of pictures, but we also marveled at our cook's wicked wit and market savvy, shared political discussions with our driver and visited his daughter's hotely, and argued about bird species identification in sign language with Masai herders. Red Rhino gave us a terrific experience."

" I traveled to Kenya with Red Rhino twice (in 2001 & 2002) and everything was incredibly smooth. They were able to cater to my specific camp requests to fit my budget and all hotel/airport transfers were right on time. The wildlife was amazing and the camps were very comfortable... I've never had so many excellent meals in one trip before. Greg, Tony & Joseph are all great guys to work with and I would definitely use them again if I ever get back to Kenya!"

" I went on a three week safari excursion with Red Rhino. I've done numerous trips around the world and can tell you honestly that this was the best trip of my life. Red Rhino did an excellent job of taking care of us in all facets. I am sure you and your group would enjoy the experience as much as we did."

"From the first contact I had with Red Rhino, they were extremely helpful and swift in providing detailed information and helping to design a safari in Kenya which matched our requirements. Despite living in Europe and organizing everything through e-mail, I never felt anxious about the arrangements as Red Rhino seemed very capable and listened to what we wanted. While on the safari itself, we were well looked after and everything went very smoothly. The transport, food and accommodation were very good. Any last minute alterations we needed to make while in Kenya, such as changing hotel in Nairobi for the final night, were no trouble. Our group found all the Red Rhino staff in Kenya to be courteous, conscientious and welcoming and I would not hesitate to recommend Red Rhino Tours to our friends - in fact we have already done so!"

" The diversity was great. We met people, explored the cities and villages; had up-close encounters with animals. ...We experienced so much we could go on and on..."

" Words cannot describe how Africa makes you feel inside. I can’t even begin to express what an amazing trip it was. It was a once in a lifetime experience and nothing I can say begins to do it justice."

" For me, the trip was everything I hoped it would be. The richly connected friendships that developed within our tour group are of great value to me. I loved that there was a plan for each day and that we could alter those plans (within reason) to be able to do all we wanted to do in Africa. Also, the tour leaders were very helpful, approachable, and tireless while we were on tour. I was grateful for the effort and genuine desire on the part of Red Rhino to meet my goals for the trip."

"I enjoyed the variety and flexibility that the tour provided. The tour leader was able to change the itinerary to meet our needs, such as when we visited a Masai school and village that were not part of the itinerary. The trip allowed for a variety of experiences including camping, traveling to the coast, and experiencing the African culture. Also, Greg was very patient and helpful in answering all of my questions prior to the trip."

Red Rhino Tours and, in particular, Greg Traverso, were recommended to us by an acquaintance who had not been able to use their services but who had had numerous conversations with Greg that left him very impressed. From the day we first contacted Greg to discuss his operation and to discuss safaris in general and specific terms with him, to the day we left for our safari with Red Rhino, we were extremely impressed with his knowledge, his commitment, and his willingness to do everything possible to make sure that our adventure was the safest and most pleasant and memorable experience possible. Red Rhino was very flexible and accommodating, very prompt in responding to our inquiries, and Greg kept in constant contact with his partners in Africa to make sure everything was going well while we were on safari. He even arranged a slight modification of our accommodations in order to take advantage of a change in the amount of game in the area we were going to be visiting. And Red Rhino's partners and employees who are based in Africa were very nice, knowledgeable, and took very good care of us. It was important that they made us feel safe and comfortable in a very foreign country! Greg Traverso even contacted us immediately upon our return to make sure our trip had been everything we had expected it to be. We received First-Class treatment from First-Class people and a Five-Star tour operator! We highly recommend their services to everyone!

The RedRhino tour that I participated in last summer was excellent in all respects. It was an experience of a lifetime, and I'm so glad that I participated in the program with Greg Traverso. I've often described him as "the nicest person in the world". Beyond that he is sensitive, thoughtful, intelligent, thorough, well organized, flexible and lots of fun! Greg has high expectations of the people he hires to work with him, and they all live up to those standards. We had many opportunities to interact with native Africans-an activity which I sought and welcomed. I have a great deal of independent travel experience and have traveled with small groups as well. I highly recommend Red Rhino and would not hesitate to travel again with them. The trip was an outstanding value for the cost and for the experiences it offered.
