"David our driver was elegant, educated, informed and passionate about his country, its politics and its future."

"It is a very friendly country, has so much to offer and every town has a different feel to it."

"Our driver David was so knowledgeable and informative, particularly whilst on the game drives. He even helped us off his own back a few times when he didn't have to and we couldn't have asked for a better driver. He truly did an exceptional job, as did the other drivers Moses and Thomas. Their enthusiasm, patience dedication and kindness was truly inspiring."

"My favourite producer was the soap stone quarry. I have plenty of these products at home and I can now fully appreciate the manual efforts that go into mining this stone, carving it through to the final product. It has also done the local community so much good."

"I think that our guide being a Maasai really lent an exceptional value to the whole experience. He was exceptionally knowledgeable about the wildlife and informed us thoroughly from beginning to end."

"There was a massive range of projects in the visit and they were all relevant and interesting"

"The workers had so much pride in what they were doing... I was amazed to see how quickly the community had put the Fairtrade premium to use. This project restored hope for me and truly illustrated teh importance of Fairtrade"

"We really did get an insight into the life for the peopole of Kenya and also saw how fair trade is working to improve people's lives. Meeting people and listenning to their stories was very important for us"
