Recent comments regarding this tour from
travellers:
“Best adventure
ever!” - Tim (2009)
“Very nice tour. Lots of
sitting in the truck, but the free time at Malawi made it good. A bit more interaction with the
locals would be nice though.” - Geertje (2009)
“More events/activities
should be planned for the trip and included in the price.” - Kevin
(2009)
“Thabani knows Africa well and
gives excellent lectures in history of the places we visited.” - Jeff
(2009)
“I have to say that I
really enjoyed every second. Actually it was my first Nomad tour – but definitely not my last
one!” - Thomas (2009)
”I had a great time but there
are some things to work with: Waterproof tents. Our tents were not waterproof. Even though the rain
cover didn’t touch the inner tent, water was dripping into the tents. That’s not good
enough.” - Carolina (2009)
“This was one of the best
trips of my life. I got a better understanding of Africa after this.” - Ross
(2009)
“The toilets were
terrible.” - Karen (2009)
“Too much driving and not
enough time to enjoy places!” - Valentina (2009)
"As I speak both german and english,
I can confirm that Veronika's translations were accurate and well presented. She did a very good
job of summarizing and presenting Quinton's explanations." - Randall
(2009)
“The zippers of the tent
must be fixed” - Jessica (2009)
“More and clearer information
before departure would be great, but it's still worth everything.” - Julia
(2009)
“The food has been
incredible!” - Laura (2009)
"Loved this trip. Would do it again
or similar with Nomad and with this guide team. Unbelievably beautiful itinerary, safe, smooth,
relatively comfortable. And food was also a highlight." - Edward (2009)
“It was a wonderful tour.
The guides were okay, but with 24 persons the truck was overloaded.” - Stephen
(2009)
“I was so impressed with
everything on the tour. Bjorn went above and beyond in every way. Every detail he knew and informed
us about. I even had fun in the truck while driving! I never thought time would fly by that
fast!” - Jessie (2009)
“I had a lovely time. The
price is great value for money and I would do another tour again!” - Elise
(2009)
“Bumby but to be
expected.” - Jennifer (2009)
“This tour far exeeded my
expectations in every way. In terms of value for money, without question the best tour I've ever
taken. Much of the credit for this to Novel and Pule. Their proffessionalism, people skills and
good sense of humour were fundamental to making this tour such a succes.” - Peter
(2009)
"Had an awesome time! Thanks very
much to Jan & Vessel - everything was perfect!!" - Emily
(2009)
