    5. Overall level of satisfaction

      • Excellent

      Excellent

    7. Absolutely perfect. One points we would mention - rather early drop off at Mufwe airport after our safari to fit in with other guests earlier flight so had 2 hours plus wait.

    8. Tribes service

      • Excellent

      Excellent

    10. Excellent service from Julie - she matched the lodges with our expectations exactly. The country information lists and packing lists were helpful.

    11. Expectations

      • Excellent

      Excellent

    13. Shenton safari and Kaya Mawa more than matched our expectations. We had not expected our own personal plane to Likoma Island! All the meet and greets at the airports were expectional. Nothing was too much trouble especially for the staff at the safari camps and the guiding was excellent. We also had a lot of say in which activities to partake in.

    14. Guides

      • Average

      Average

    16. The wildlife guides on safari were excellent and extremely knowledgeable and tried their utmost to find the animals or birds that you really wanted to see. It was also enjoyable to share the company round the evening dinner table.

    17. Social & Environmental Responsibility

      • Good

      Good

    19. Social and environmental aspects at shentons excellent particularly impressed with own farm for vegetables- though would have liked to have time to visit. Kaya Mawa social aspects very good - involvement of local community and supporting of various projects.

      Excellent

    4. Feel Julie worked hard to allocate us the very best rooms both on safari and at Kaya Mawa where we feel chalet 4 was far better than Honeymoon Island. Service, atmosphere, food all wonderful. Not too sure about the 15 minute introductory briefing lecture at Kaya Mawa which was a bit in your face and rather critical of the safari regime which we had just enjoyed.

    4. Really enjoyed the local atmosphere on Likoma Island - a perfect safe place if you want to get involved with the local people though you have to be patient and expect to take loads of photos of the children!
