Recently returned from a trip to Africa, Dr. Dean Traiger and Tami Traiger share their photographs and experiences below:

What was your greatest interest/challenge/obstacle that brought you to Africa?

Our passion is to travel and to visit exotic places. Our biggest obstacle was figuring out the logistics (What? Where? When? How?), and that is where Hills of Africa’s expertise really shined!

What was the experience while traveling and working with Hills of Africa Travel?

Working with Hills of Africa was very easy. Mark and Sandy were quickly available by email or phone whenever we had an issue or question. While in Africa we had contact numbers to call for help but thankfully we didn’t need it. That was a great anxiety reducer to know that if we had trouble we were not completely on our own.

What has changed for you since your travels?

Learned more about African culture and the jewel that this continent represents and the importance of preserving it for others to experience. I want to take my children there when they are a few years older.
