Our arrangements and Sabi Sabi experience were exemplary! All travel wentwithout a hitch, and we both loved Bush Lodge & Selati at Sabi Sabi. The staff, rangers and trackers were knowledgeable and most accommodating. I would be happy to recommend Travel Butlers! Many thanks for your help and patient assistance as we planned a wonderful South Africa experience!
