He takes personal responsibility for every traveler he works with. Recently he helped me organize a fundraising safari to benefit the Cheetah Conservation Fund in Namibia. His meticulous attention to every detail and personal support throughout the trip (which ended with some of us stranded in Namibia due to Covid shutdowns) resulted in a positive extension to an already extraordinary adventure. It easily could have been otherwise. He made himself available 24/7 with information, resources, and support as we navigated the unprecedented circumstances brought about by the pandemic. He truly is a gem!" - Roswitha S. 18-Day Africa Safari Itinerary Chris Liebenberg's 13-day Namibia Itinerary Was this page helpful? Thanks for your feedback! Tell us why! Other Submit
