Dr Darrin Porcher, who is frequently featured in Fox News for his extensive knowledge of American criminology, recently went on his first safari and this is what he experienced. 

An Amazing Kruger Experience -  Traveller Story

According to Dr Porcher, the Lions Lodge game reserve in Kruger National park, South Africa was amazing and a true bucket-list experience for him. 

“Outstanding customer service from my trip facilitator Alice Lombard”

Although Dr Porcher was completely unfamiliar with safaris; his travel agent Alice took this in mind and went the extra mile to help him which in turn gave him a user-friendly experience.
Dr Porcher went on a solo safari adventure and managed to take some rare selfies! Create your own selfie safari today.

The true magic, though, is with the people. They’re not just staff; they’re my friends, my family.

I went to Africa to help my parents check a box, but I returned with a new perspective on my own life. Africa is no longer a "someday" destination for me; it’s a "must-return".
