This allows us to deliver authentic experiences to a superior standard, anywhere in the world.
Wow just wow . From the minute you get off the plane everything is taken care of... Hotels, transfers and we stayed on a few extra days and they organised a hotel for us.
Very organised and friendly, Chris is like another member of the team but with lots of knowledge of everything, very well traveled.
From the breathtaking mountains to the monkeys in the rainforest and the waterfall of all waterfalls. Very emotional, uplifting and actually life changing for me.. what an absolutely incredible experience I would highly recommend Global Shenanigans to anyone wanting to go in a team. Perfect amount of people and help the whole way if needed with good advice. I'll be coming on another one for sure! Which mountain next 🙏😜
Well well what can I say....Global Shenanigans led by Chris Whittaker have helped me to achieve one of my bucket list goals.
From picking my luggage up in baggage reclaim until we topped out at ABC, Chris and his team were there all the way removing all the stresses of the trek to allow me to enjoy every one of those elevating steps and outstanding views towards ABC.
If you are looking for a trek to Annapurna Base Camp or any other of the Global Shenanigans trips I can highly recommend these guys as your lead....this is my first trip with these guys and I am already eyeing up another in the future.
Thanks Global Shenanigans for an amazing trip ♥️
The Best Kilimanjaro Team! Chris, Global Shenanigans, and our local guides were truly amazing! I cannot say enough about how much I enjoyed climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro with them. We summited in October 2023 on the Machame Route and could not have done it without them! Chris had everything planned, was very responsive to questions prior to the trip, helped with recommendations for gear and training, and the whole trip was very well organized. We started the trip with a few days to relax and visit the Chemka Hot Springs before the climb. After the climb we had time to safari, relax, and celebrate our great accomplishment. It was a trip that I will cherish forever and such an incredible experience thanks to Chris. Everything end-to-end was very well planned and felt personalized versus booking with a larger tour company. I would highly recommend Global Shenangians!!!
I flew to Tanzania to climb a mountain and have an adventure. I flew back to the UK with a passion for a life of adventure. Thank you Chris for you infectious enthusiasm and contagious philosophy for a life of sustainable adventure, the relationships you have built locally to help our dreams carried us up "the hill" and the experiences we had before and after our climb the perfect "book ends" to both prepare us as a Team and help us reflect and unwind after, while enjoying more of the spectacular country. From swimming and rope swinging in a natural spring, climbing Kilimanjaro, to safari adventures and lazing in an infinity pool with a cold beer watching the sunset in great company, all round perfect trip and memories for life!
We would like to pass on our compliments and recommendation to Chris and the Global Shenanigans team for planning and organising our private safari in Tanzania for our honeymoon.
Chris is an exceptional communicator and made our life very easy in the planning stage, he was always providing information and advising on how to maximise our time in TZ. As soon as we had the itinerary nailed down it was all systems go. With a dedicated Whatsapp channel where could all stay in contact with each other, Chris and Thomas were able to provide great support which was a lifesaver when travelling over the land border between Kenya and TZ for tips, advise and guidance.
Once we arrived Thomas was a brilliant coordinator ensuring that all elements of the trip were smooth and allowed us to really enjoy the safari experience.
We couldn't possibly end a review without a big mention for our guy and safari guide Sam. Sam was such a legend and really brought the life to our safari experience. He was quite a chilled/relaxed kind of fella however he was always finding us incredible animal sightings and landing us in incredible settings for lunch. In addition, Sam was great company we could not recommend him enough as a safari guide and driver.
If you are considering any private or custom safari experience in TZ, please do not hesitate to reach out to Chris. You will not regret it.
Thank you Global Shenanigans for a brilliant experience in TZ.
