"The staff at NEI were marvelous to work with, extremely conscientious about meeting our needs and quick to respond to our questions and requests. I have never made that claim about any other travel provider we have used, and we have used many. The New Zealand vacation they planned for us was true to their promise--fun, exciting, and memorable in a most pleasant way."
S. Welner, Manhattan Beach, CA (New Zealand)
"I chose NEI because of Jonathan's responses to our phone call requesting information. He suggested a private trip, listened to our needs and gave honest and personal opinions. I can honestly say this was the smoothest, most prompt and easiest best organized trip we have had after visiting Australia, Japan, Brazil, Finland, Europe and Russia; your trip customizing was excellent."
Dr. & Mrs. Lucas, Lexington, KY (Costa Rica)
"I have recently returned from a Galapagos trip, and wanted to express my pleasure with every aspect of the trip, but I wish to add this brief note to especially commend Heidi Perez for the absolutely superb services she rendered. From our first preliminary conversations, when I was trying to decide which of several companies to use for this very special journey with my young grandsons, she could not have been more helpful. It was entirely due to her courtesy, knowledge, and apparent personal interest that I chose your company. Due to illness, I had to postpone the trip for two weeks. This, as I'm sure you know, entailed a variety of extremely complex changes in plans. Heidi managed it all promptly, efficiently, and as if she had nothing better in the world than to make sure everything went smoothly for me and my family, which she did--magnificently! Thank you for this unforgettably grand experience."
E. Blass, Little Rock, AR
"We returned on Dec. 25 from our trip to Egypt organized by you. Both Pravin and I enjoyed our trip tremendously. Thank you very much for the excellent coordination with your local people in Egypt. Every step of the way, we were provided with the service you had promised.
Services were flawless in every aspect of the trip; the staff was courteous, friendly and very helpful.
We would be very interested in taking future trips with you!"
B. Trivedi, Bloomington, IN
"The trip to Brazil was fabulous! One of our top-rated destinations. Everything went perfectly. We don"t know how you managed all the arrangements.

We were met everywhere by smiling faces and signs with our name on them (very comforting). Things went very smoothly, and the hotel accommodations and every other aspect of the trip were first class and top notch. Thanks again for the efficiency and great planning on your end."
A. Yopp, Nashville, TN
Our China experience with NEI was satisfying in every way and I was pleased to be able to recommend you to our friends. Your knowledge and suggestions proved invaluable. You recommended places we probably would never have considered. And, you told me I must see Huang Shan Mountain. Dawn on Yellow Mountain was magic.
G. Honeycutt, Atlanta, GA
"We loved loved loved the trip! It was absolutely fabulous. Everything about it was just great. Having planned work trips and events, I am tough to impress and you wowed me. One of the best parts (as silly as this may sound) was how we were greeted at the airport when we arrived -- we didn't walk more than 300 yards without someone helping us. It was just wonderful and it set the tone for the entire trip. All of the activities were terrific. The guides were real pros and everything ran smoothly. It was all well timed -- we were busy enough, but not too busy. Honestly, it was the perfect trip -- exceeded our expectations in every way. When we travel again, I will be sure to see if you can arrange a trip where we want to go."
E. Stoeber, Farmingdale, NY (Costa Rica)
"Just thought I'd drop you a line or two about our recent Ecuador and Galapagos trip with NEI. It was fantastic! We had an incredible time. I don't want to wear out the exclamation point on my keyboard, but it's difficult not to when describing our experience. I'm not much of a dancer, but it was a lot of fun trying to learn the salsa. I'm afraid my style displayed all the grace and agility of Frankenstein's monster. . But it was fun, I'm continuing to practice (Kick! Two, three, four). Thanks a lot - it was the trip of a lifetime."
J. Fago, Farmington Hills, MI
"We had a WONDERFUL time and enjoyed every moment of our trip. It was fantastic, and everything was beautifully organized and went smoothly. We are very thankful to you and Nature Expeditions, and the Nairobi office staff for making our trip such a wonderful one."
A. Lamoureux, Honolulu, HI (Kenya)
"Just wanted to say thank you to both of you for a spectacular trip to New Zealand. We just got back this morning and are already missing the beautiful country. Your planning was all superb - everything went like clockwork and we enjoyed each and every guide, hotel, meal and excursion. Thank you so much for all of your efforts. We had a wonderful vacation.
K. Cox, Annandale, VA
"Just a note to thank everyone at NEI who worked so hard to make our adventure to Southern Africa and Seychelles such a wonderful experience. Everything went smoothly, the accommodations were great, and the animal sightings were terrific. You made all this possible. Please convey our best wishes to the staff at NEI."
T. Pokras, Santa Monica, CA
"We want to say that, overall, we were extremely pleased with the level of service we received throughout, starting from our interaction with you, to the folks who greeted us at airports, the drivers and the staff at the lodges. We feel that from the planning of the trip to the execution of it, the interaction was such that the highest level of effort was made to accommodate our wishes, and we truly appreciate it."
M. Guzman, Wakefield, MA
"We recently booked a three week cruise in the Antarctica region through Nature Expeditions. The folks at Nature Expeditions were always prompt with their responses to our questions and requests and they gave us timely and accurate information. We chose to book our own hotels and airfares within Argentina, but when we experienced a delay in getting back from the cruise, Nature Expeditions stepped in and did a marvelous job of rearranging our flights and scheduling alternative lodging. We recommend Nature Expeditions."
