Jul 04,2018Bellingham Safaris is fantastic. I have done regular trips and private trips with them. They are extremely friendly, good with organisation, and excellent in the field at finding birds and animals even the rare and elusive ones.

Jun 26,2018What an unbelievable experience. From the planning stages, to the journey itself, our holiday could not have been better. I recommend Bellingham Safaris - without hesitation - to anyone looking for an unforgettable getaway without any of the hassles that often accompany a trip either locally or abroad.

Jun 25,2018I give Bellingham Safaris the highest possible recommendation. They responded quickly to all my questions and designed the perfect trip for a person who had rather unusual requests (most people traveling to Africa don't put aardvarks and pangolins at the top of their wish lists!). It was my first experience dealing with a non-U.S. safari company and I would never have believed how easy it turned out to be making all my arrangements via emails. They use top quality guides in the camps - I watched other guides coming to those chosen for me by Bellingham to learn the best places to see the animals. I have been to Africa many times and this trip stands out! The arrangements made for me were absolutely first class. I was met at every stop AND I was treated like a VIP! Tswalu Kalahari Camp had been told exactly what I hoped to see and my guide set out to find me my “wish list”. The number of days booked for me at each camp worked out perfectly.

Jun 23,2018To Simon, our Borneo guide and co-founder of Bellingham Safaris: Dear Sir: It was a joy and a genuine honor to have been with you on this latest (our third) trip with Bellingham Safaris. Thank you and your staff for the fantastic job you all did on behalf our recent adventure together to the island of Borneo. The accommodations at Bilit Rainforest Lodge, Borneo Rainforest Lodge, and especially Tabin Wildlife Resort were perfect. Our discovery, and gorgeous photographs, of 32 new species of mammals, over 140 new birds, and 7 new snakes (plus many uncounted other amphibians and reptiles and flora species) would not have been possible without your monumental dedication, tireless efforts and super guiding skills! I would like to share with any potential traveler(s) who may be interested in an expedition or journey with Bellingham Safaris, that the real treasure of such a proposed trip is the honor of being in the “bush” with Simon himself! I’ve said this about very few people: If I was the Secretary General of the United Nations, rather than just having World Heritage Sites, I would institute the title of “World Heritage Human Being.” Simon’s authentic love of our natural world is both intoxicating and inspiring; his enthusiasm to share with others his vision of a better life for all who dwell upon this "pale-blue dot" hurtling through space is inspirational beyond words; and his selfless and unwavering dedication to the welfare of all sentient beings upon our planet, our stunningly beautiful planet, is without equal! Thank you

Jun 23,2018We arrived back in the UK full of wonderful memories from our trip with you in Uganda. We all loved our time with you and were delighted by the engagement and commitment you showed both to us having an unforgettable experience and also pointing out the desperate need for conservation efforts and the role we can play in facilitating this

Jun 22,2018We heartily thanked the Bellingham organization for the whole India trip, all the organization and various experiences from the wildlife, scenery, cuisine, social, religious, historical and cultural point of views, were fantastic. Indrajit’s (guide) organization on the whole trip, was spotless to say the least, so we owe him a big standing applause for that. And all the attentions, food and lodging at the various lodges and hotels were superb. We had immense luck with the wildlife sightings and Indra put us always in the right spot, especially for viewing the Royal Bengal Tiger and the other emblematic species that thrive in the four National Parks we visited. We look forward to future excursions with the Belligham Team. Rafael Hoogesteijn, DVM, M.Sc.

Jun 21,2018I have booked two absolutely magnificent trips to Africa with Bellingham Safaris. Feeling so comfortable with them, one of the trips being my Honeymoon. I could not recommend using them more - nothing is ever too much for Simon, Jen and the entire team, who always go the extra mile. One could not be in better hands when booking through them. Their sound knowledge, advice and professionalism is unsurpassed. I would look no further than Bellingham Safaris to help book your luxury wildlife safari experience.

Jun 14,2018I love to use this company!! Bellingham Safaris will do everything possible to make sure you go home with the best holiday memories! I’ve never seen someone work as hard as Simon Bellingham and Indrajeet Latey, to make sure you have the best photographic experience ever! All of their guides are extremely knowledgeable with local flora and fauna, as well as being photographically aware of the best positioning for light! Everyone involved with this company is AMAZING to work with! I can’t wait to travel with them again!
