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… |
