All the way 2 Huntingdon!! Gotta love 'em

Thank you, Simon and the entire staff! our Safari to Namibia was planned to perfection! Each detail and each and every lodge was spectacular! I believe we had the best guides in the country! Traveling during a pandemic isn't easy, and Bellingham Safaris was able to craft together a trip of a lifetime!! It was well worth making the effort. Namibia is a hidden treasure. What am amazing history, and strong people! And the Animals...well just spectacular. Thank you Namibia for taking care of these special species. We had special dietary needs, and they were all handled with simplicity and ease.

This was our fourth Bellingham adventure in as many years and, once again, it met the very high standard that they set from the outset. The travel and accommodation arrangements are fully thought through and explained, so you always know what to expect when and where, but the added thoughtfulness makes the difference. For instance, we weren’t just transferred by car at the start and end of the trip, but personally collected by Greg. At every stop a restaurant has been pre-booked after checking our preferences beforehand. They also have a focus on, and lend support to, conservation initiatives, which is very important to us. After a stay at beautiful Kommetjie, where we had a great hike in the hills with Greg, we then transferred to Kwandwe’s Great Fish River Lodge. Kwandwe was right up there as one of our best safari experiences. There is a great variety of terrain and an incredible diversity of wildlife, more than we have seen before in one location. Our enthusiastic game warden, Ivan, and tracker, Sibo, were good company and highly knowledgeable and informative. Once again, having Greg from Bellingham with us was the icing on the cake as he worked with them as a team of eyes both on the ground and in the skies. As an added extra Greg arranged for our party to snorkel with seals at Hout Bay once we returned to Cape Town. It was incredible to be examined so closely, and playfully, by a wild marine creature. A bit like being investigated by a fishy Labrador. We can thoroughly recommend the Bellingham team for wildlife safari holidays.

We were lucky enough to spend 2 nights in Kommetjie in a beach villa, followed by 3 nights at Kwandwe game reserve in February 2021, organised by Bellingham Safaris. It was wonderful! Greg complimented the reserves own ranger and tracker perfectly with his amazing depth of knowledge but never intruding. The game came out for us and our sightings were truly spectacular, not just all the big 5 and a full house of other mammals but birdlife and plant life too. Our travels from ocean to bush were seamless, well organised and safe in these difficult times. A magical holiday to remember.

Our tour to India’s Pench National Park for March was disrupted when the government closed the country to tourism due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our goal was to reschedule and receive a credit from the unused portion of the tour in order to do so. Simon, Jen, and the team at Bellingham Safaris have very courteously, promptly and efficiently assisted us to reschedule our tour to 2021 without any penalty or additional expense. Bellingham Safaris has always been highly reliable and again exceeded our expectations under these extraordinary circumstances.

Bellingham Safaris have always been caring and attentive. They handled the Covid situation well. Kept us informed and re-arranged the holiday for a year later super smoothly.

Given the uncertainty created by the pandemic, Jen and team worked quickly and effectively with our lodges today postpone our Safari by a year. We have a high degree of confidence that they will do the right thing and have our interests in mind over everything else. I would add that South Africa appears to have weathered the pandemic much better than most of the developed world and I can’t think of a much better “social distancing” activity that being out in the wild with family.

The team organized the most amazing birthday experience in one of the most beautiful places in the world. They rallied together and managed to make emergency changes to travel plans due to the Corona lock down. Professionals and will use for all these types of travel.

Everything was perfect, best trip and organization ever.

In January 2020 we visited South Africa and the whole trip was organised by Bellingham Safaris. We spent 4 days in the wine country, 4 days in Cape Town and 4 days at Ngalla Safari resort in the Kruger. It was a magical trip and Bellingham were amazing. Our guy in Cape Town, was Greg, who made our stay very comfortable and interesting. His knowledge of the country, the sites and the wild life is amazing which added a huge amount of interest to our trip. All the hotels chosen by Bellingham were excellent and Safari was outstanding. The highlight of our trip. Shelly was super efficient and responded to all our questions. We cannot recommend Bellingham highly enough. Ivan and Ginette, London
