Zene was incredible to work with
Zene was incredible to work with! She was so helpful in finding us the right safari for our honeymoon within our price range. She provided us with multiple options across different countries and was able to work with the lodges to get extra add-ons, as we want to make the most of our honeymoon. We are so excited for this trip and couldn't have found such an incredible place without her!
