Traveled in May 2025 "This was an absolute trip of a lifetime! Everything was exquisitely planned down to the finest detail, and we could not be happier with the level of service provided by Sikeleli! Every aspect of the trip was a highlight, but certainly our favorite was the amazing safari experience! Nothing to improve on, this trip was perfectly planned and all of our wishes were 100% accommodated! After only a few days home I have already passed along how fantastic Sikeleli is to all of our friends and family Thank you so much for making this such an amazing experience! Karen was tremendously helpful, and immediately responsive to all questions. We will be forever grateful to her for creating these wonderful memories for our family! All of our transfers and airport escorts were great. We are completely unused to having that kind of help, as previously we have always planned our own travel. It is amazing how low-stress it is to have all of the small logistics of a trip 100% taken care of. Every one of the Colossal staff was wonderful and helpful, and the young lady that escorted Kate gets a gold star!! All transfer vehicles... Read More

Traveled in May 2025 "It was a pleasure to work with Fungai. Our trip was a once in a lifetime experience. For us, we enjoyed the game drives We had river time in Moremi and then were immersed in river time at Xugana. We absolutely loved Okuti in the Moremi Game Reserve. We enjoyed staying in a small lodge. The staff was fantastic. Our guide, Baums was the absolute best. The resident hippo, Oscar was also a highlight. Our time in Vic Falls was so enjoyable. A combination of seeing the "smoke that thunders", river cruise and wildlife at our hotel.  we had a budget and were able to work within that. I liked the info available on the website. Definitely we would recommend you."

Traveled in March 2025 "We are so impressed by the Sikeleli professionals! Danni, Karen and the Sikeleli team put together a perfectly personalized dream itinerary for the two of us that more than exceeded our expectations. In addition, they were available and accessible throughout our journey. Also the people, the sights, the wine, the Safari, the stunning beauty, the luxurious accommodations: this was a trip we will never forget. The test of excellence is how professionals handle less than perfect situations that crop up from time to time. Sikeleli Travel was there for us and gets our highest rating and appreciation! The website was very good, providing tons of important and relevant information. We have and will continue to recommend Sikeleli to our friends and family and fully intend to call upon them again for future travel experiences!"

Thailand

Traveled in December 2024 "Our family trip to Thailand was an exceptional experience. Each destination offered a unique charm and adventure, making it a perfect getaway for us. The hospitality of the Thai people, combined with the rich culture and stunning landscapes, made this journey unforgettable. We traveled through Bangkok, Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai and Phuket. Thailand, you have captured our hearts, and we can't wait to return! I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible service provided by Karen Dewhurst, our travel agent, who expertly crafted an unforgettable trip for our family, including my 85-year-old mom. From start to finish, every detail was thoughtfully arranged, allowing us to enjoy our journey without any stress or worry. The website was an essential tool as we continued to utilize as a quick reference during our travels and we highly recommend using Karen Dewhurst at Sikeleli Travel. Thank you! And now for booking our next excursion"

Travelled in August 2024 |  "Everything was perfect! I was amazed at how well it went. There was not one misstep or snafu. Truly remarkable It was a trip of a lifetime. We are still talking about our trip and miss the sounds of the wild animals at night outside our luxurious accommodations. Seeing wild animals up close and in their natural habitat is something none of us will forget. It changed us. It took the city out of us and we long for the peaceful sounds of the African wild. The people who took care of us at the camps could not have been more welcoming, caring, and friendly. Our personal guides were so knowledgeable about the animals and the terrain and ensured we always had a memorable experience from sunrise to sundown. They took such good care of us. The sundowner sunsets are unlike anything we have seen anywhere, so beautiful. We hope we can do this again one day. Just keep doing what you are doing. Karen was very patient and helpful the whole way. It is a huge expense, but Karen assured me it was worth it and it definitely was; we do not regret one... Read More
