This one was the best!
Canada, Grizzly bear


Our African Safari was much more than we could have imagined, it excelled!


Christine listened to our desires and based on her knowledge and her own personal experience formulated a prefect, gratifying itinerary which when executed was smooth.

The trip exposed us to multiple eco-systems and yet flowed with synergy like a choregraphed dance; it was balanced and seamless. There was no travel stress, Christine took care of everything.


Of all our many, many trips, this one was the best! Outstanding!



You can’t go wrong with Christine at the helm guiding you down the path of your own adventure….

Our memories are etched deep in our travel banks; yours will be too….

Every "i" was dotted
Africa, lion cub


Once again, Christine did not disappoint. She has planned trips for us to Africa, twice to Greece and most recently for my husband and I to Portugal.


As always, every "i" was dotted and every "t" was crossed! From the driver waiting to meet us at the airport on arrival to the magnificent hotels and pousadas, we were continuously impressed.


Our guides in Lisbon were extremely knowledgeable and friendly.


We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Christine and have already contacted her to start planning our next trip.

Our trip was truly “epic”
Galapagos, sea lions


First off, I must tell you that everything on our family trip to Africa was wonderfully organized. I must also say that everyone we met was very friendly and everything everywhere was very clean.


The hotel in Cape Town was perfect for our family. As you had told us, the location was great, and we were able to walk everywhere.


For the safari portion of the trip - what can I say about our private manor house? There could not have been a better place for our multi-generational family!


Thank you so much for organizing everything for us. Our trip was truly “epic”, with the lion fight being the culminating event.

We have countless wonderful memories and over 4000 photos!

Adventure of a Lifetime
Canada, Grizzly bear


With Christine's help I started my lifetime dream of traveling to Botswana and South Africa in 2019. COVID delayed it by 3 years and Christine stuck with me through it all.
 
Finally my adventure of a lifetime came true, and it exceeded my expectations. My concerns of travelling by myself were unfounded as Christine and her team ensured that I always felt safe. I never felt alone, knowing that I would be met and guided by competent people every step of my trip.
 
The memories I made on this incredible trip will last me a lifetime. Thank you, Christine for making my wish come true.


I would definitely recommend Christine and her travel agency.

Our Kenya Safari awaits
Africa, lion cub

My husband and I wanted desperately to fulfill our lifelong dream of going on Safari to Africa, but where to start?  


Fortunately, I was recommended to Christine Boecker by a mutual friend so I contacted her, and 3 months later we are almost ready to go to Kenya on the trip of a lifetime. Christine, in a word, is amazing. 


The 3 best things about her services are:

1) Thoroughness and Peace of Mind – Christine’s attention to details is exemplary.

2) Sound advice – Christine is very knowledgeable about Africa and all aspects of travel. She had us covered.

3) Online, live itinerary – absolutely everything is also online and updated all the time.


We highly recommend Christine Boecker. She is quite simply, wonderful!

   Most amazing Family Trip
Galapagos, sea lions


Christine arranged the most amazing trip for my daughters and I through Egypt and Turkey.


Everything went smoothly and the tours and accommodations she booked for us were excellent. I would say the highlights were the Nile Cruise, Abu Simbel and the culinary tour in Turkey. The guides were all great. Transfers were never a problem.


Christine is honest, accountable and efficient and you can trust her to put together an unforgettable travel experience. 


Thanks again Christine and I look forward to planning another vacation with you sometime soon.

Once-in-a-lifetime!
Wildebeest migration, Kenya, Tanzania

Thank you for organizing the most epic adventure of all time.


The wilderness retreat you chose for us was exceptional and a once-in-a-lifetime experience for the whole group.


The lodge, service and food were beyond. Our Saturday dinner experience blew our minds!


Alex, our guide was wonderful and we enjoyed our time with him. Hannah, our specialist guide was excellent.


Thanks for dealing with the back and forth on this one. The long wait since 2020 certainly paid off!


Aly, Langley BC

Expectation exceeded
Galapagos, blue-footed boobie

I can not thank you enough for the wonderful, wonderful trip that you planned for us to South America. It was absolutely fabulous and exceeded our expectations.


The timing of each destination was perfect, the rests that you put in were perfect. Every time we walked into a hacienda, our first words were WOW.


I saw my blue footed boobies up close and personal, doing their little dance. I could have touched them!


Thank you for a trip so well organized and thought out.
I will be in contact with you for my next trip!!

Living the dream
African luxury safari

We are now back home after spending a wonderful two weeks on safari in Botswana and South Africa.


We would like to thank you for the effort you obviously put into arranging a flawless and exciting trip for us, it was truly amazing.


We enjoyed beautiful accommodation, we met some wonderful people, enjoyed first class meals and the game viewing was phenomenal, what more could a traveler ask for.


Memories of this trip and our previous trip to Tanzania will last a life time. We are so happy we made the effort to live the dream.

Perfect trip!
Zambia, wildlife safari


Christine helped us plan a perfect trip to Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana.


Some unexpected time off led us to find Christine online, who mapped out several weeks of travel on relatively short notice.


Everything was perfect without a single glitch. Detailed itineraries and an app for us to refer to while traveling was helpful to keep track of each detail.


Tracy & Matt, Vancouver BC

Bucketlist worthy!
Tanzania, Ngorongoro Crater, Hippo

Christine from TravelBoecker was referred to us by a colleague. She can make any itinerary to fit your budget! We simply gave her a list of things we wanted to explore and experience, and she made it happen. 


Christine is very knowledgeable and has great attention to detail. When she found out the Wildebeest Migration was almost a month early, she adjusted our itinerary. We were one of the few travellers that actually witnessed the migration and it was unbelievable. We saw everything we wanted to in Tanzania and more than we could have imagined. Thank you Christine for helping me check off something on my bucket list!

Our safari was epic!
Botswana, elephants


Our trip to Africa was epic! We visited Victoria Falls, Cape Town, and experienced a wildlife safari in Botswana. It was all spectacular, with dream-inspiring memories of the interactions we had with the amazing wildlife and people. 


Our trip was particularly successful due to the top-notch service we received from Christine at TravelBoecker Adventures. She knows the right people and companies to work with on the ground in Africa, to create a smooth, trouble-free adventure. Thank you, Christine. We will spread the word.

Creative, Luxurious, Fun!
Portugal, Algarve, Tavira


We could not have had a better trip planned for us. Christine created an itinerary that was creative, luxurious, interesting and fun. She is a professional.


Seventeen days of wonder in Portugal, including guides, cars, e-bike tours, Yurts, very high end resorts, a horse show in Golega. We loved every minute. Our surprise dinner was a delight and unforgettable.


With great care, experience, patience and intelligence she masterminded a trip we will remember with great joy.

Truly epic!
Okavango, Lioness

Post-trip review: A truly epic safari to Zimbabwe, Botswana and Cape Town!


We highly recommend Christine's TravelBoecker services!


Our tour guides were excellent, our accommodations better than expected, and our experiences were beyond our imagination. We learned tons, saw so much, and developed an incredible respect for the people and life in this part of the world.


Our trip was amazing and we are still dreaming about our experiences with amazing animals and people. Thank you for all your work over 3½ years!

Thorough Planning!
Botswana, bush dinner


Pre-trip review:  It has been a pleasure to work with Christine to plan our trip to Africa…now 3½ years in the making with COVID delays.


Christine has pivoted readily to changes brought on by COVID, as well as to changes in our group.


The thorough planning has us very excited for our trip and we are confident it will be fantastic, as this will be our second adventure using Christine’s TravelBoecker services!

Outstanding!
Tanzania, wildlife safari


Christine is an outstanding travel partner with her knowledge of the countries and personal experience.


She uses on-the-ground partners in East Africa who have exceptional guides and camp managers.


Christine arranged some very specific special requests which were fulfilled without exception.


We most highly recommend Christine as a partner in any travel arrangements.

Spot on!
Spain, Flamenco dancers

My wife and I just came back from a trip to Spain and Portugal. Since the logistics were complicated, we decided to plan this trip with Christine Boecker who was recommended to us by a friend.


Christine planned this trip for us from A to Z. The attention to detail and her professionalism were spot on. During the entire trip everything worked like a well-tuned machine.


We have no hesitation recommending Christine for any trip you're planning and will definitely use her experience and services for our next trips.

Amazing Adventure!
Kenya, game drive


Just to let you know, we had an amazing holiday. I never imagined how amazing Africa would be.


From the moment we arrived in Tanzania until we left from Kenya we were taken care of by our guides and could experience all that was planned for our African adventure. From safety down to the smallest details.


Thank you so very much for an amazing adventure Christine. Love Africa

Experience of a Lifetime!
Kenya, Masai, walking safari


Follow up report:
There is nothing like a
personally curated, private safari if you want to see all the wildlife up close, without being crowded by other people at a sighting.


Every conservancy that Christine chose for us had its own charm, be it the enjoying sundowners on a rocky outcrop surrounded by a herd of elephants, or the hot air balloon flight, where we glided along a riverbed and could almost touch the wildlife, or the private butler at our last camp, who catered to our every wish. Oh, and the food was excellent everywhere!


The soccer ball donations were a hit. Now a school, an orphanage and a soccer team have new leather balls, and we’ve become the sponsors of a soccer team and a girls’ sport team too.


If this was the last trip we ever did, we’d be so happy!


Tish & Gary, Delta BC

Amazing Africa!
Africa, baobab tree

Christine planned an amazing trip for us through East Africa. We travelled through Kenya and Tanzania (including Zanzibar).


We gave her our budget and our bucket list and she took care of the rest. From the flights, hotels, transportation, food and safaris. The highlights of the trip were taking a hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti and seeing baby lions!


We have since had two kids and can’t wait until they’re old enough to take there. We have recommended Christine to many of our friends and would not hesitate to have her plan our next adventure!

Flawless Safari!
Kruger Park, giraffe


Christine helped us to plan a trip of a lifetime to South Africa.


Her in-depth knowledge of the country and contacts on the ground created an experience that was flawless.


Christine is a joy to work with and she also keeps a sharp eye on your pocket book. Call her, you will be thrilled!

Grizzly Bear Safari
Canada, Grizzly bear

Well, my 4th trip with Christine was a bit different. We went on a Grizzly Bear Photographic Safari in the Chilcotin region of British Columbia.


Beautiful place, saw lots of grizzlies with an excellent guide.
Christine made sure that all Covid precautions were in place. We felt very safe. 


Great trip - thanks Christine.

Goosebumps
Africa, lion cub

Every time I think about my time in Africa, I get goosebumps.


From beginning to end, everything went smoothly. Christine coordinated everything for me in the US and my family in Canada.


I had high expectations for the trip, but the whole thing far exceeded anything I could imagine. It was a trip of a lifetime!! Thank you guidance and hands on care.


Gaylene, Ohio

Awesome
Galapagos, sea lions

Thank you so much for putting our trip together to the Galapagos Islands, the Cloud Forest and the Amazon.


You have managed to put together an itinerary that surpasses all our expectations and has just the right types of experiences we were hoping to find. As my son would say -  AWESOME!

Botswana is Amazing
Africa, Botswana, Zebra migration

We had an absolutely wonderful time in Botswana! I would say it is the best holiday I have ever had, and I still go to sleep at night thinking about all the amazing animals we saw.


All three camps in Chobe, Savute and the Okavango Delta were beautiful and so very different that they made the experience even better.

In Savute we had the most knowledgeable guide, as well as the most fun camp staff who went above and beyond to make our stay the best. Their songs at dinner, their formal 'sundowner' bar in the middle of nowhere, their great sense of humour and friendliness will never be forgotten.


Christine's travel arrangements, with 8 of us coming from a variety of places and meeting up, were absolutely perfect. Everything went so smoothly.
I hope that I will be able to go again someday and wouldn't hesitate to use Christine's services.

Happy solo traveller
Zimbabwe, Victoria Falls

My trip to Botswana and Victoria Falls was Amazing.


I spent four days in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, then went on to Moremi, Khwai and Savuti. We saw several leopards as well as many elephants and lions and wild dogs just wandering around like they own the place.


Highlights in Khwai were the 3 hour nature walk, and the mokoro boat ride - it was so meditative and peaceful.


The camp staff took such good care of me – the food was fabulous, and the guides were super knowledgeable.


As I was travelling alone the arrangements made by Christine were extremely helpful. I was met on time everywhere. It made me feel totally safe and taken care of. I was very impressed and would highly recommend TravelBoecker.

Fabulous holiday
Uganda, mountain gorilla

We've been back from our trip to Quito and the Galapagos Islands for a week now and I would love to be back there swimming with the penguins and sea turtles.


We had such an amazing time. We landed in Quito late and our driver was waiting to take us to our hotel. We spent two days in Quito and learned a lot about the geography and the indigenous people and Incas and Spanish who arrived later.


The islands are so unique and beautiful and the abundance of wildlife is incredible, it truly is a place like no other. I was so glad to be on a very nice boat, which Christine had recommended. Our meals were delicious, our beds and rooms very comfortable and our guide was very knowledgeable and also had a great sense of humour.


Thanks to Christine at TravelBoecker we had a fabulous holiday and I'd go back in a heartbeat.

Greek Odyssey
Greece, Santorini

After experiencing a dream trip to Africa last year, we asked Christine to help us plan another trip - this time to Greece.


The hotels were lovely, transfers to and from airports were always there on time and Christine's suggestions for places to stay were spot on!

Thanks so much - where to next?!

So happy I went
Antarctica, Elephant seal

Antarctica was an incredible experience. We were mesmerized. Every day was a new adventure.
 
It really is indescribable. One has to go there to understand how magnificent and other-worldly and massive nature it. And there's nobody there. It was always just us. It's like being on a different planet.

I'm so happy I did it!


Gary, Delta BC

Meeting the Gorillas
Uganda, mountain gorilla

The trip to Uganda was awesome and yes, we did get to meet the gorillas.


I almost had a baby Gorilla in my lap. Benny got slapped twice by an adolescent and Shari got slapped too.


It was awesome!

Over the top
Cape Town, V&A Waterfront

Christine arranged a trip to South Africa for part of my family, including two 10-year-old grandchildren.
 
The experience was "over the top" for all 6 of us! There were so many highlights that it would be difficult to list them in a short review, it was a lifetime experience that we all thoroughly enjoyed and will fondly remember.
 
The Cape Grace Hotel, in Cape Town, was the best ever and the private game reserve offered facilities, Safari's and staff that one could normally only hope for. To observe all the wildlife, including the "Big 5", was unforgettable and, to have a Rhino seriously consider charging us, an unexpected adrenalin rush. I look forward to going back!


Gary, Delta BC

5 Stars for sure
Namibia, Sossusvlei, Dune 45

We want to thank Christine at TravelBoecker for organizing our glorious trip of a lifetime to Namibia & South Africa. 


You made us feel secure in all our travel arrangements and we appreciated your walking us through each step of the way.


The staff at our lodge were indeed extraordinarily friendly, and fun. We couldn’t have imagined what living in a safari tent would look like… I still remember where my imagination went, and yet it was the most exquisite accommodations and experience. My idea of camping!


Thank you so much for your services and we look forward to the opportunity to return to South Africa sometime and hearing about other places we might venture to, based on your experiences exploring all of these destinations. #gratitude. 5 stars for sure!

Family friendly
South Africa, C ape buffalo, oxpecker

In spring I had the good fortune to take a trip to South Africa with our family.
 
I have to say, I was already impressed with Christine prior to our departure. She was prompt, courteous and brilliant with insight into keeping our activity schedule meaningful and fun to all three generations. On top of it all, Christine went above and beyond to ensure my twins’ complex dietary issues were addressed, including a gluten free birthday cake for them while on our Safari!
 
Our guides at the private game lodge were perfect and made finding the "Big Five" the best scavenger hunt ever!
 
We thank Christine for an insightful job well done and anxiously await our next TravelBoecker adventure!

I could've kept going
Peru, Machu Picchu

We have just returned after a full month of amazing adventures in Peru and Ecuador! Everything went well travel-wise, we were cared for and supported almost too well in some places! Our guides and drivers were all excellent and we learned so much. The lodge in the Sacred Valley of the Incas was amazing, the hotel in Quito and the hacienda were perfect.
 
The Amazon was very interesting. Our guide, Oscar, was determined to show us as much as possible, including many medicinal trees and plants - amazing!
 
We also enjoyed the cruise in the Galapagos - and thank you for insisting on a stable, higher quality yacht! We enjoyed the other guests, had a great guide, and enjoyed the food/service provided and our stay on Isabela Island was lovely.
 
And so our trip was perfect - overall wonderful, memorable, and I could have kept on going! Thank you Christine!

Great, great trip
African Safari, cheetah cub

We had a wonderful, fantastic time in East Africa. All four camps were outstanding... the staff, the food, the guides - all outstanding!
 
The Serengeti and the great migration was just magical. We saw crocodile jumping on a zebra while crossing the river and the zebra disappeared. What a sight and what an experience.
 
We also witnessed a lion kill in action, so much patience and stealth. At the end the prey got away and the lion did not get his food.
 
The bird watching was fantastic. We stopped by almost every tree where there was a bird. I don’t think a regular safari would have allowed us to do that.


Accommodation was excellent, more than met our expectation. The Star Bed was a great experience. I could spend more time there. Our picnic lunch was sitting amongst the wildebeest and zebras, with table and tablecloth set up. Just amazing!
 
All in all we had a great time and enjoyed it very much, an experience we will treasure.

Perfection
Amazon, macaw

Thank you, Christine. Once again you have out-performed yourself with this latest trip. We had a marvelous trip to Ecuador, the Amazon and the Galapagos. Everything was done to perfection.
 
For me, I had no idea what to expect before we left, except that it would be a great trip because you have arranged it. By the time we arrived, I knew I was right.
 
The Amazon trip was fantastic. We had our own guide for the entire stay, so we could go bird watching. We saw Macaws in the wild – I love the Amazon!!
 
The Galapagos cruise was outstanding. We were on a beautiful boat, very luxurious. Our 13 other travel companions were excellent and that made the journey even more enjoyable. We snorkeled and hiked every day. We swam with sharks, sea lions and all the other exotic fishes, just beautiful. We saw dolphins jumping and swimming alongside our boat, just like in the movies. 

 
The service on board was impeccable. Before a swim, our equipment was already laid out for us. When we came back from the swim, we just left all our equipment and the crew cleaned it, ready for our next swim. The minute we took our wet suit off, you feel a hot towel around your shoulders to keep you warm, and hot or cold drinks were there for us as well. We were very pampered.
 
The food on board was excellent, always 5 star and we had different menu every day. We had a really good chef.
 
This trip will certainly be in our memories as being one of the best and most adventurous, alongside with our other safari adventures that you arranged.
