South Africa was beyond magical! It was 10 days of epic animal sightings, meaningful volunteer work at the rhino sanctuary and knowing that our donation went straight to further the cause of wildlife conversation in South Africa. The itinerary was incredible. The group of people I got to share it with were just amazing. Thank you Kelsey and Wander Out Expeditions for putting together an absolutely life changing trip!!

This was my 2nd trip with Kelsey, and once again she has excelled at pairing amazing wildlife experiences with ethical tourism. Every aspect of this trip was intentionally focused on conservation education from game drives, to volunteering in rhino rehabilitation, to observing wildlife vets in action. Everyone involved in this trip made it so special including our driver/chef Bob, and Leah and her mom who live and breathe conservation. This trip exceeded all my expectations. I have come home with new friends, a full heart, and a full camera roll!

This trip to South Africa was very well-planned. I was so impressed by how smoothly everything went. Top customer service from Kelsey, Leah, Bob, and everyone else that contributed to the 10-day experience. I especially loved the diversity of the three sites we visited. The animals were the super stars, especially the Rhinos and Cheetahs! I rate this experience ABOVE & BEYOND! Also to note, I felt we got so much for the cost of the expedition. Well worth the value. :)

My week in La Ventana was unforgettable, Kelsey did it again! This is my third trip with her and she is in my opinion the absolute best expedition leader…her attention to detail, her passion and respect for the ocean and its wildlife and the way she partners with locals are what make her trips remarkable. The highlight was witnessing the mobula ray migration. Seeing massive fevers of rays gliding through the water and launching themselves into the air is something I'll never forget. Every day on the ocean felt like a new adventure, whether it was watching sperm whales from the boat to swimming with dolphins Kelsey, Katy(our local guide from Latitudes Encounters) and Chillean(our boat captain were mindful of our and the wildlife’s wellbeing. What made this trip so special wasn't just the amazing wildlife, but also the sense of community. I met wonderful people, learned so much about the local ecosystem, and came home with incredible memories!

I had a really positive overall experience on the Mobula Rays & Megafauna trip from June 7–13, 2026! Kelsey was wonderful to communicate with and made the whole process feel easy, organised and welcoming. Our guide Katy was also great. She was knowledgeable, approachable and lovely to spend time with, and our boat captain Cano did a great job making the days on the water feel safe and well managed. There were some really special moments throughout the trip, both on and off the water, and it was amazing to experience the marine life in such a beautiful place. It was a really memorable experience with a genuinely lovely team and group of girls. I will happily book another trip with Wander Out Expeditions in the future! Thankyou for a great week!!!
