Ethiopia and Far & Wild were great!
Ben at Far and Wild was extremely helpful in suggesting places of interest to visit in Ethiopia, after talking to me on there phone about my interests and work. His enthusiasm for Ethiopia was infectious and I'm glad I was persuaded to check it out! I visited various ethnic groups in south Ethiopia and the Simien mountains with its wildlife and dramatic backdrop of the Rift Valley. Both areas are very different from each other and very special parts of the world.
Our guide on the ground was very knowledgeable, helpful and organised. Accommodation was always good and sometimes with fantastic views as a bonus.
Ben knows Ethiopia well, so if you are curious, speak with him about what Ethiopia has to offer. You won't regret going!

Our Safari holiday to Kenya was absolutely AMAZING!!
Our Safari holiday to Kenya was a trip of a life time. We had spent years (literally) saving for it, but when it came to booking it I didn’t really know where to start. I contacted a number of companies, but there was something about Ben at Far and Wild that made me go with them. He had an excellent knowledge of the country and seemed to understand exactly what we wanted. We changed our mind a few times, and Ben was totally understanding and non judgmental. There was never any pressure - just helpful suggestions.
The result was indeed the holiday of a lifetime. Words will never do it justice - an INCREDIBLE experience. The accommodation was first class and the guiding out of this world. The organization was smooth and efficient from beginning to end. I can’t stop thinking about it!!!! L
I have to say that I thought this would be a once in a lifetime trip BUT it was so amazing I am going to start saving again NOW....and I will certainly use Far and Wild again - BRILLIANT!!!!

first class travel company
My first point of contact was with Rebecca who is incredibly knowledgable about safaris. I was very nervous to begin with but we talked it through ( for a long time!) and we eventually had one of our best ever family holidays to Kenya then what was for us a return journey to Mauritius.
Everything taken care of incredibly efficiently from domestic flights to hotel transfers and lots of questions in between.
I would thoroughly recommend far and wild with no hesitation.
