点评:I was looking for a very specific safari itinerary in Kenya which had to include a day in the very remote Kora National Park. The reason behind this requirement is of my personal connection with Christian the lion that was bought from Harrods and subsequently rehabilitated into the wild in Kora by George Adamson in the early 1970s.
I had contacted several reputable safari providers with my requirements. Only Banok Safaris were willing and able to meet my needs. Banok answered all my questions promptly and honestly. They provided me with several accommodation options in Meru National Park which would be the base from where I would travel to Kora (there is no accommodation in Kora) and suitable 3 to 5 day itineraries with a fully detailed quote for each.
Having chosen an itinerary and booked flights, Banok also arranged 1 night hotel stay near Nairobi Airport on the day before the start of the safari due to the late arrival into Nairobi which is a 6/7 hour journey to Meru. I was met at Nairobi Airport by a representative of Banok and transferred to the hotel. The next morning I met my Safari guide Jackson, for the journey to Ikweta Safari Lodge in Meru.
Ikweta is a very pleasant and comfortable lodge. My day in Kora was amazing with a visit to Kambi Ya Simba (Camp of the Lions) which is where George Adamson lived and rehabilitated lions including Christian. Visited George Adamsons grave, the Tana River and Kora Inselbergs Rocks.
The other 4 days were spent in bush drives in Meru which is teeming with wild life including the big 5.
I would whole heartedly and without hesitation recommend Banok Safaris. The service provided was outstanding both in listening to my requirements and catering to those requirements and made the whole booking process simple and straightforward. My guide, Jackson was excellent and knowledgeable and made the experience unique.

我向多家信誉良好的游猎旅行社提出了自己的需求,但只有巴诺克游猎公司愿意且能够满足我的要求。Banok迅速且诚实地回答了我的所有问题。他们为我提供了多个位于梅鲁国家公园的住宿选择,这里将作为我前往科拉国家公园(科拉国家公园内没有住宿设施)的基地。此外,他们还给出了适合3至5天行程的旅游路线建议,并为每条路线提供了极为详细的报价。
在选定了行程并订好机票后。由于抵达内罗毕的时间很晚,而从内罗毕到梅鲁需要6到7小时的车程,因此Banok还安排了我在游猎开始前一天在内罗毕机场附近住一晚。我在内罗毕机场由Banok的代表接迎并送往酒店。次日早晨,我与我的游猎向导杰克逊会合,随后一同前往位于梅鲁的伊克韦塔游猎旅馆。
伊克韦塔是一家非常舒适宜人的旅馆。我在科拉的这一天过得非常愉快:参观了坎比·亚·辛巴(狮子营地),那里是乔治·亚当森生活并照料狮子们的地方,其中包括克里斯蒂安。我还拜谒了乔治·亚当森的墓地,游览了塔纳河以及科拉的孤峰岩群。
接下来的四天,我则在梅鲁国家公园内驾车游览,那里野生动植物种类繁多,甚至能见到“非洲五霸”。
我毫不犹豫地全力推荐巴诺克狩猎旅行团。他们提供的服务堪称卓越:不仅认真倾听我的需求,还切实满足了这些需求,让整个预订流程简单又顺畅。我的导游杰克逊非常出色且知识渊博,让这次旅行体验变得独一无二。
