Subject: photos & comments on the wonderful trek in Loita Hills Dear William, Many thanks again for a wonderful and most memorable Loita Hills trek. Michael and I have wanted to sit down together to write to you with our comments on the trip, but rather than wait until I return to London I thought I'd send you a quick email of my own. In every way, for me, the excursion was an incredible introduction to Kenya and for Michael I know it was a fantastic way to come to know a part of his country he'd not yet experienced before. The group you organised was such wonderful company on the four days. Everyone was most considerate, welcoming and hospitable and the conversations around the bonfire and during the relaxing breaks were terrific. Your planning left nothing to be desired, except of course we wish we'd had more time! The accommodations were very comfortable - I've never before been on such a serious and rugged extended hike with so many luxuries. Throughout our email correspondence prior to the trip you gave us a very honest and realistic view of what to expect, though I have to say the beauty I encountered was beyond all possible expectations. In particular, thank you for your flexibility in scheduling and customising the trek for us, not only did you make it possible for me to participate in convalescence, whilst providing the rugged trek we’d hoped for, but you also catered to me as a vegetarian without Michael feeling left out as a true omnivore - the food was fresh and delicious and every single meal during the four days was a different menu! David's cooking was excellent. If anyone would like a personal recommendation please feel free to put them in touch with us at lariosbogecho@mac.com .... my only hesitation to spreading the word about you and your work would be that I'd worry you might be fully booked up the next time we?re in Kenya ! All the very best wishes, Mariana (& Michael) [US/UK/Mexico/Kenya] ************************************************************************** Date: Thu, 4 Jan 2007 07:15:44 +0100 To: inquiry@culturelinksafaris.com Subject: Re: Clark-Hall’s Hi William, Thank you for your emails. I am sorry not to have responded before but we have been very busy over Christmas. Mike and I had a fantastic time in Kenya , and really enjoyed our Safari with you. It was exactly the sort of trip we had hoped for, and I dont think we have any criticism that would be helpful for you! Please convey our good wishes to the whole team, and remember us to the villages we passed through, in particular Ndutu. I hope we get the opportunity to came back and have another walking trip with you. best wishes Steve and Mike Clark-Hall, UK ************************************************************************ Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2006 20:17:47 +0100 To: inquiry@culturelinksafaris.com Subject: Re: Hello from Kenya Dear William, I got home safe and started working right away. It was nice to be with my family again. I showed them all the nice fotos and told them everything you taught me about Kenia and its nature and people. Thank you for a very special time, Freya Here is my comment for your page (if you need it, I can translate it into German also): William and his crew took me to Hell's Gate because I wanted to go hiking. The scenery is spectacular and Wiliams knowledge of Kenia and its people, of plants and animals, of geography and geology of that vulcanic region is amazing. For me it was also very interesting and fun to recieve ethnological information about african tribes, riddles, stories and jokes. Concerning the rest of the crew: Our driver was very experienced and drove safely. The cook prepared delicious local food with ingredients fresh from the market. At night they lit a comfortable bondfire and there was even a challenging scrabble-game. I can really recomend all of them!

Kenya trekking This year I had the chance to realize a dream I had already for a long time: to climb up the Mt. Kenya ! And indeed it was like a dream: a wonderful, amazing vegetation I've never experienced in other mountainous regions before, a quietness and loneliness in pure nature where you meet other persons just in the huts during the night and I must say, I was even surprised how easy it is to reach the altitude of 5000m with no physical problems at all. (My tactic: an extra day at Shipton's camp, drinking a lot of water between the meals and to walk so slowly that you always enjoy your hike.) A little hint to be aware of: In Europe the mountain huts can be heated up with wood, the huts in the National Park of Mount Kenya not! Therefore, take a warm sleeping bag with you!!! Another marvelous thing which I have to mention was the food. Yes, the food! As a housewife I appreciated the wonderful cooking very much (starter, soup, main-dish, fruits) and I even gained weight on a mountain trip! Summarizing I have to say it was an outstanding experience for me and CultureLinkSafaris puts into reality what its name stands for: links cultures together! William not only told me many interesting things about wildlife, nature and Kenyan culture, he was also the only guide in the huts who socialized with the customers for chatting, playing cards or whatever. This approach and the knowing that local people are benefiting from this ecotourism gives you the good feeling you need if you travel in Africa . Thanks very much, Williams, for this unforgettable week! I hope I can come again with my kids for a safari-adventure! J.

Seen from far: I appreciated very much the personal approach that you and the other guides you have chosen had to us as a group and to me in person. You have been flexible and have been able to make arrangements for our wishes. yours Hans-Peter Switzerland ************************************************************************* Jambo, William. Our return was safe and comfortable, just very tiring by the time we reached New Delhi . The first thing we did was to give the film for processing and then download the digital pictures, and spent the evening going over them! Our trip to East Africa was perfect. It was the realisation of a long-standing desire for both of us. When you have been looking forward to something for years you build it up so much in your mind that in the end it is a little disappointing. But this experience was everything we imagined and more. Your organisation of the trip was not only efficient, it was so thoughtful too. I do believe Africa will find us returning. One of the best things about visiting Africa was meeting you. We enjoyed your company and your friendship, and we felt the same way you did. I am sure God will bring us together again. Meanwhile, do keep in touch and do plan that trip for Northern Kenya and for Mombasa/Zanzibar.... C. Rao. INDIA ************************************************************************* Jambo Kimeli ! ...You know, I really think that you have a wonderful job! If I live in Kenya I would love to do your job. Now that I’m in France I start to realize all the beautifuls animals and landscape I’ve seen and I’m so happy to have discover a such beautiful country with so nice people. I promise to myself that one day I will come back to Kenya and Tanzania . Sindy FRANCE ************************************************************************* Jambo We are a group of swiss mountainguids and climbers.
