"Ruby anniversary team" - Betty, Laurence, Pauline & Matthew, UK & Spain:
...What an absolutely wonderful trip we had, so well organised and everything available for the disabled traveller, never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever be able to experience a real life safari...

Michael, Amy & Rob, UK:
...I want to say a huge thank you to you all for making Michael's safari dream a wonderful success! I have spoken to the team that went with him, and they said that he is still talking about it all the time and seems in great spirits. ..everything ran really smoothly and the tour guide (Alfie) was brilliant...

Eva & Mike Derera, Hungary:
…importantly to thank you both so very much for making this holiday possible, enjoyable, memorable and great fun. One word covers it: awesome!!...A true group of friends said their farewells at the end and we do intend to keep in contact...many thanks again and God bless you and the wonderful work you do...…


Jaine Brock
, UK:
…emailing is completely different now that I have met you.:)...
I just wanted to thank you both from the bottom of my heart for such a wonderful holiday. I really don’t know where to begin to thank you as you made my life come alive again…

Caroline, Doreen & Ken, UK:
…Caroline (formerly a teacher of science) has had MS for many years but told us that she wanted to have the experience of seeing, hearing, smelling and even touching the African wildlife at first hand. All of this was made possible for her and ourselves. The fact that she, and others who were with us, had to use wheelchairs, in no way detracted from the joy of being there.



Rachel & Daniel
, UK:
...This year (2007) is our second trip with Epic Enabled...we enjoyed it so much that we had to repeat it!...Epic Enabled organise everything and we've learnt that each time is different, and special...

With this in mind, we will be returning!.



Jan & Keith Parsley
, UK:
...what a great time we had last month, thank you Alfie for a wonderful experience...It was obvious that Alfie had expended considerable time and effort into developing a truly disabled friendly tour...Alfie's constant attention to detail, and seemingly inexhaustible energy that made the trip even more special...Once again thank you for a truly 'Enabled' holiday...



Toyah Wordsworth
, UK:
...I enjoyed every single minute of the holiday, it was an experience of a lifetime and one I'll never forget. I still can't believe that I was less than a metre away from a Lion or that I fed a Hippo which is something I never thought i'd do.
I'd like to thank you all for making me feel so welcome and if you are ever in England feel free to look me up. But I think I'll see you back in Africa first...

Jonathan Toogood, UK:
...The holiday was truly an amazing experience. Like many other people I have adventure stories when I was younger, and you never think you will be in that situation yourself, even less when you are disabled. The Epic Enabled provided a real opportunity to experience a sense of adventure...


Sheila, Faith & Lori
, USA:
Thanks to both Alfie and Sabine for the wonderful safari for my sister and I. We both enjoyed it so much! You folks are both awesome along with Joshua! It's very difficult to come back to work and back to the real world from the bush, again thanks for the trip of a lifetime! Faith & Sheila

We made it home fine but the best part of the trip was the tour with you and Alfie and of course your wonderful and handsome assistant Joshua. I have been recommending your trip to everyone. Lori


Lena, Mona, Ulla & Zdena
, Sweden:
One month is already gone since we had our fantastic holiday. I have been dazed with all things we saw. Thank you very much for making our trip a memory for life.

Pia Schmid, Switzerland:
A tour to the animal kingdom Kruger National Park sounded for me, as a wheelchair user, far away - until I heard of Epic Enabled. Tours for wheelchair users into the wild! ... I will book another tour with Epic Enabled as this was a fantastic Experience and you can’t miss out on such highlights in life!.

Coll & Denise Sparks, Australia:
...Nothing was too much trouble for you, Alfie, and you made it so much easier for both Denise and me than I expected it would be... I really thought that this would be my last safari, but after our experience with Epic, that might not be the case…


George, Jane & Stewart
, Australia:
...Whenever anybody asked George what he thought of the trip all he could say was "perfect"…


Da Wielewaal
, Holland:
...I've talked to all of the disabled people of our group and also the volunteers, and we all agreed on one thing: This was our best holiday ever!!! Thanks for an unforgettable experience!...

Sophtie Smith, UK:
…I had a fantastic time - not only the whole safari experience but also I had forgotten how I love getting to know other people, so being able to do that was just the icing on the cake!
Also big thanks to Alfie for all his hard work - cooking, driving, organising, etc - and making sure we all had an incredible experience. The opportunity to go on safari and also make some good friends was unbeatable. It has spurred me on more now with the need to change my life…

Moira & Bess , New Zealand:
…The tour was extremely well organized and planned – Impi – the truck was comfortable and had every conceivable piece of equipment hidden away... Alfie had a great understanding of what was required for people with disabilities – yet treated everyone as the individual that they are, affording them respect and dignity…
Would love to come again – a dream come true – which sounds clichéd but is fact.

Charlie Trautman & Family, USA:
…Believe it or not, for the first time, the whole family took a trip together outside of the US. ..A safari is a great way to experience the wild with your family and we HIGHLY recommend it if you ever consider it…

Heather Manktelow, UK: (POEM)

…Epic Enabled did us proud,
Adaptive equipment they provided,
To help our wildest dreams come true,
- In their safe hands we were guided...


…He specialises in safari trips
To empower the disabled,
Helping people to push the boundaries
And become more enabled...



Nicki Conway
, England:
…when I saw the epic-enabled advert I thought wow yes please, quite expecting to be told I am too disabled. But I was accepted on Alfie's tour in August 2005 and had an absolutely brilliant time…




Scott & Denise Mc Pherson
, USA:
Our trip to Africa was the greatest adventure of our lifetime and we’d like to thank both of you for helping make it happen. The trip to Kruger/Tshukudu was wonderful and it was a great group to travel with as well. Thanks for being our guide Alfie.



Bill & Carol Randall
(www.access-able.com), USA:
…I wanted to thank you for allowing us to participate on one of your Safaris. It definitely ranks right up at the top of one of the greatest experiences of our lives…

Margaret Hides, UK:
…The eight-day holiday turned out to be all we could have wished for...Well-run in my experience, I found nothing to beat it on a scale of fair value pricing and willing assistance…You move in an awesome world of close encounters with the kingdom of wild animals. From the safety of your sturdy safari vehicle you never know which to grab first - the camera or binoculars…every new day starts with the adventure of wondering what wonderful animals you will encounter next...leaving only silence and a feeling that you have been part of the mystery of wilderness…

Wicked World Tour, Scotland:
… Our trip to South Africa was undoubtedly very dependent on the generous service provide by Epic Enabled…We would not hesitate in recommending their company to any disabled travellers and will cherish the memories we hold of our month in South Africa…



Rene De Laat
, Holland:
…The adaptations and/or facilities? - Disabled people get special attention everywhere in the Game Reserves of South Africa. And as I heard, even more attention than in 'disabled-paradise' the United States. Even an adapted bath in the middle of the bush is possible…
…The organisation behind this trip? - You won't find a better one...



Ben Pickard
, United Kingdom:
…Never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d be able to describe the wilds of South Africa as a suitable place for a wheelchair user to go and enjoy, how wrong I was…
… Epic has built the bridge for anyone to enjoy nature at its most thrilling…



Karen Krimberg
, South Africa:
…I rode off into the red African dawn in a truck so imaginatively and ingeniously converted that every disabled person on the tour wanted one… And then I will tell you that I was in a place where my crutches did not impede my being able to touch a cheetah. That I stroked him until he purred…The Epic adventure will not heal you or enable you. But it will empower you. And that is a priceless thing to have - empowerment...


David Colley
, United Kingdom:
…By this time it was starting to sink in that here we were, this group of people with mobility needs, doing a safari in the same way as non-disabled people: travelling in a truck, sleeping in tents, cooking over open fires, helping each other if there was a problem. I loved it...


Sonja Venter
, South Africa:
…The next morning very early we went for a morning drive down to the dam to had a look at an elephant that was for me a big big experience to hold the elephant and the elephant loved our truck. I will never forget that special moment…



Nick Irish
, South Africa:
…We saw a great many interesting birds and animals as we drove about on our viewing vehicle, but quite my favourite was the young orphaned leopards that behaved like big playful cats and let us pet them…



Sonja Botha
, South Africa:
…This trip was a fantastic experience and a highlight in my life. The success of the trip was to a large extend due to the expertise of the staff which I really wish to compliment…
