Trip experienced with us:

The Gateway Experience Ghana - Oct 28 - Nov 5, 2024

This was an excellent trip - very well planned and organized, with each day conducted as expected. Historical information, sightseeing, shopping, and the atmosphere of Ghana were experienced during this tour. We were able to try excellent foods in a variety of restaurants.

The guides were excellent, and provided extensive narratives about the sites we visited, answering questions while accommodating the individual needs of our party.

Trip experienced with us:

MIT The East African Adventure-(Tanzania & Zanzibar) July 18-27, 2024

A trip of a lifetime and one that I will never forget.  Everything was planned and executed with excellence. This was my first trip to the continent, and you all exceeded my expectations. The Safari, Hot Air Ballon over the Serengeti, and the beautiful luxury tent experience was the highlight for me.

Thank you, Maximum Impact Travel.
