We just returned from our second safari last Sunday. We were in Tanzania on the Bridges Family Safari. We didn't have any issues anywhere and the people there couldn't have been nicer. We have been on 12 Tauck trips and we feel very comfortable with Tauck and how they take care of their guests. They always keep us informed and never put us at risk. We flew Qatar airlines and we had no delays or cancellations. I hope this helps put your mind somewhat at ease.
First of all. Your trip is more than two weeks away. You are only in Nairobi for the last day where most of the action will be and the Tauck people will have any changes or cautions under control.
One advantage that we found when there was an Ebola outbreak on the other side of the continental a few years ago, people started cancelling because they did not realize the outbreak was thousands of miles away. and we had a nice small group.
Pegacav: Go and enjoy yourselves. Life is too short. You will have a wonderful and spectacular time.
We leave on July 7 for the Tauck Gorilla Safari, which starts in Tanzania on July 9. We get to Kenya on July 14, and spend 5 days there. I sure hope things have settled down in Kenya by that time. I just got over my worries that our flight on Qatar Airways, which goes through Doha, might be affected by the turmoil in Iran. Looks like flights through Doha are back to normal for the time being.
Thanks everyone!
The safari part of Kenya is out in the bush, you won’t be seeing anybody apart from the workers at the camps.
Pegacav We are on the July 16th tour as well. I have been on several journeys with Tauck; they will not risk anyone's safety. And we are also flying through Doha we get in the a.m. of the 15th - look forward to meeting you and to a great trip!!!!
Mary-Basile looking forward to meeting you as well!! We arrive on the 17th. We trust Tauck as well.
