Our experience with Wayfairer was fantastic. We used them for our East Africa honeymoon. We're pretty savvy travelers on our own, but there were so many moving parts (3 countries, multiple safaris/adventures/puddle-jumping flights) that we opted to work with a local company. We were concerned that it would be too cookie-cutter since we had some unique stops we wanted to make along the way (we're climbers and wanted to do a day of rock climbing, etc). But from the first conversation, our Wayfairer rep was so helpful and accommodating--she knew a local climbing guide who could take us out, and made it clear that we wouldn't be part of a big tour group or anything too structured (which was our request). This ability to fit our travel style was really surprising and exciting because I always pictured tour operators as much more "packaged deal" versus "build your own." It absolutely paid for itself in how seamlessly everything worked out--from the initial trip planning, to resolving a couple of minor hiccups along the way, to little surprises that our tour operator had planned for us--we said probably a dozen times, "Thank God we didn't try to do this on our own." It was such peace of mind to have someone to help if we needed it, and to have every little transportation detail worked out without any stress or planning on our end. (We literally just hopped off a Cessna in the middle of a tiny airstrip in Uganda and had a driver waiting for us with a hot towel. It was insane.) Most importantly though, we were so glad to see our money support local companies--not big tourist chains. I would absolutely use Wayfairer again and feel spoiled for all future trips now. A big thank you to Toon and Leonie for all you did for us!
