What Customer Say About Us

Paul Josop is, simply put, an outstanding birding ( and all-round nature) guide. His knowledge base is superior. His ability to search for and locate species in the field was extraordinary. his enthusiasm unmatched! It was a pleasure to tour under his tutelage. He was patient with the less experienced in our group while successfully satisfying the more rabid among us. I enjoyed his sense of humour. We had an unfortunate incident ( no fault of the tour itself ) during the tour. He responded with appropriate concern and quickly took charge of the situation which was resolved without difficulty. I would tour with him again without any reservation. I would also comment that we had the privilege of being paired with Dirk who served as driver and co-guide for the Kruger segment of the tour. He knows the park and its residents like the back of his hand. The synergy between Dirk and Paul enhanced our experience measurably.

This was my first professionally organized and run birding tour and it exceeded my expectations. Rockjumper put together an amazing itinerary and was very efficient and thorough with the pre trip communication. Manuela Zapata did a fantastic job leading our group! She is a very knowledgeable and personable young lady and really knew the localities and birds! She was very attuned to the needs of the group and willingly birded extended hours as the group desired. I was very glad to have such a great local guide and not be led by an international “expert”.

This was my first birding trip ever – I filled in for a friend who was booked, but could not go due to a health concern a mere two months from the start of the trip. I was totally unprepared for the intensive focus on the birds however, Stephan and Paul and really the entire group were very gracious and accommodating, and really made an effort to include me and despite my naïveté I really did enjoy the entire experience and saw some pretty cool birds! I would highly recommend this trip to the experienced Birder; and to the beginner understand that it is all birds all the time. The main things you need are a good hat, plenty of sunblock, decent binoculars, hiking shoes are better than plain sneakers as the terrain can be rough and rocky, layers of jacket and shirts for cooler areas, and phone camera is OK but if you really want better pictures of the birds that are at a distance you might want to bring a larger camera. I purchased extra shampoo and shower gel at one of the gas station shops - some of the hotels did not supply all, and even soap was sometimes miniscule. In conclusion Stephan and Paul were not only the Bird Whisperers, making birds magically appear out of nowhere, making sure everyone could get a view, lugged those scopes all over for a “Birds Eye view for all”, expertly navigated every detail from travel to sites and hotels and food and rest stops. They are truly the entire package of a professional guide ! I also mention Ibrahim, our driver -I even told Stephan he should give him a part of his paycheck - he did such a great job of navigating the tiny roads and big highways and even spotted some of the birds as we were driving . He even stayed with those of us who were staying on at the Relax Airport hotel and made sure we all got properly checked in . All in all it was a fabulous experience .

Julian was willing to go after some of the most difficult birds especially the nocturnal ones which many tour leaders will avoid. Also, he had a keen interest in other wildlife which I really appreciated.
