How could we improve the quality of pre-holiday information that we send?

I was completely informed about how my holidays were going to be.
I knew everything before it happened.


How could we improve the way we handled your booking and payment?

I completely agree with your method.
I booked the safari before the Covid 19. You gave me my money back completely without hesitation and without being asked by me. I appreciate a lot the way you work. It made me feel you are really professional. This was when I thought that if I was going to do a horseback riding safari in the future it will be with you.
[Becky from In The Saddle replies: Thank you very much for your kind feedback, I'm so pleased we were able to assist and that you had such a brilliant holiday.]


Do you have any other feedback for us?

Everything was beyond my expectations.
I had been in game driving safaris in Kenia, Tanzania, South Africa, Namibia and Uganda before, but nothing compares to this horseback riding safari in the Macatoo camp (Okavango Delta).
