Amazing feedback from one of my biggest trips yet! 65 days, using only our premier properties #Singita #Londolozi #Virginlimitededition #Andbeyond #Silo #RoyalPortfolia #Safaricollection #GiraffeManor #Wilderness #Vumbura #SouthAfrica #Zimbabwe, #Zambia, #Botswana, #Kenya #Tanzania #Rwanda #Ethiopia #Congo - Coming to Africa? We got you! "I hope this e-mail finds you and family well. As you know we are still traveling in Africa (Congo) at the moment but the Africa 65 day trip you planned for us has ended on July 27, 2024. Where do we start???.... You Sarah and your entire team have been absolutely wonderful from the beginning to the end of our trip! Before we decided to book the trip with you, we looked at many reputable Safari companies that had good reviews but you, Sarah, you stood out by conveying your knowledge about all African Safari logistics to me over the phone and you were and are hands down the best communicator, thus there was no hesitation in booking our 65 day trip with you! All logistics ie: flights, transfers, guides, lodges, and everything in between that was handled by Ker & Downey was simply put: FIRST CLASS! If there were any hick-ups (not too many on our 65 days through 7 countries adventure) they were handled immediately and without much fuss! There is no words of appreciation for Sarah Morris, Marwaan, Tendai, Emma....and many more behind the scenes who helped us get the most wonderful, African experience and what it seemed at first effortlessly organized but their knowledge and skillful customer service was put to the test and it was a privilege to watch how they navigated through the most challenging African hick-ups, which is nothing to take lightly... Your customer service is truly unparalleled as you have traveled (remotely) with us almost on a daily basis for the past 65 days. Ker & Downey Africa has our hearts and we highly recommend you to the most demanding and discerning travelers! Thank you very much for all you have done for us. Warmest regards, Bozena and Douglas

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain Welcome to Ker & Downey Africa, the most adventurous travel team on the planet!

Ker & Downey Africa is a group of international travellers, flâneurs, adventurers and entrepreneurs bound by a love of adventure, exploration and discovery. Monday mornings sees our Adventurists gathering around a fresh brew of strong coffee to compare the various adventures we are designing for our clients or checking in on the progress of client’s already travelling on one of our expeditions.

This World Ranger Day, we salute the Tango K9 anti-poaching unit for their extraordinary dedication to wildlife protection. 🐕 In the heart of Thornybush Nature Reserve, these highly trained dogs and their expert handlers embark on daring patrols, using their sharp senses to track poachers and thwart illegal activities. Their relentless efforts not only safeguard endangered species but also enlighten visitors about the critical importance of anti-poaching initiatives. The Tango K9 unit exemplifies the courage and innovative spirit essential to combating poaching and preserving our natural heritage. #worldrangerday #worldrangerday2024 #guardiansofthewild
