I've already recommended G Adventures to a number of friends before this trip but this proved why. Again the Guides were absolutely superb and helped me get the most from my (too short!) time in Kenya. Providing help , knowledge and generally making sure everyone got the most out of Kenya. The provided food on this trip in addition was excellent - first time I've had included meals and they were excellent as well. On top of all of that the general crowd on these trips are always excellent.
