We collected waste on the streets, cared for the baby turtles (fed them, cleaned them, cleaned their tank) and on my last day I was participating in letting them free :) Comments on local team, food and accommodation, local team was sooo nice, helpful, and very openhearted! And even played live music for us daily and organized a bonfire! Loved it!

The people were very welcoming. The local team arranged for everything, from pick-up over transport and accommodation to food, very well. It's so nice to see the eagerness of the children to learn. The children (and people in general) are so polite, respectful and joyful. Great to see them open up to you when they get their trust and confidence. As mentioned above, the local team coordinated, supported, communicated, facilitated in a superb way!

The trip was so interesting in terms of the diverse activities we did and the animals we could see. it was a dream to see the savanna and the animals and we had the opportunity to do a safari in masai mara which was amazing. we didn't expect to do that many activities, we visited touristic places in the first 2 weeks. the weather was great, sunny but not too hot and then it became hotter and hotter but still nice. the program with the giraffes was amazing, seeing these giants for real and in the natural environment is something else. they are such wonderful animals and we are grateful to have helped for their conservation. The local team was helpful, kind and Laban is the best guide! they made our experience in Kenya unforgettable and easy. we really appreciated the food and the accommodation was great, except some water issues but always solved in 1 day. Maybe updating some infos on the website because it is written "no wifi" in the accommodation.
