The Kenya global medicine trip was well organized and gave an insightful overview of the Village Hopecore program. It was a privilege to work alongside the dedicated Kenyan health care providers. I learned so much about global healthcare.
The Kenyan safari and beach time were amazing.
The Namibia trip was awesome. All the lodges we stayed at were comfortable and in great locations. The safari and other activities were unique and incredible adventures.
What a fabulous adventure!! Exceeded every expectation I had. Great travel group and wonderful coordination of all the annoying things about travel. Transport, hotels, options for day trips were all done for me - so I got to just enjoy! A little bit of medicine, public health, learning and CME mixed in but a whole lot of adventures, experiences, and opportunities to be immersed in other cultures. The lodging exceeded my expectations and felt very authentic to the places we were. The people we met were incredible and so welcoming. I can highly highly recommend!
This was the most incredible combo trip with Ari! Getting involved with Village HopeCore in Kenya was inspiring. It is an outstanding organization. The safaris and beach trips in both countries were unforgettable. I highly recommend any trip with Medtreks!

Cannot say enough amazing things about Ari and the MedTreks International experience!!
I travelled to Morocco in November on a MedTreks trip and I am still so blown away reflecting on not only our travels, but the incredible people I met along the way, and the heart behind this company.
I'll start by saying WOW ~ the trip was incredible!! Ari is an exceptional guide and curated the most thoughtful and well-rounded trip. I truly felt immersed in the culture and learned so much about Morocco. It is a country so unique and unlike anywhere I've ever traveled before. Trip highlights were the sunset camel ride in the Sahara, a tagine cooking class, and of course the hamam spa day! All of the food was EXCELLENT, and our accommodations were fantastic. We were given a thorough itinerary in advance, had two awesome locals guiding us through the country, visited the most amazing spots, and had several intimate cultural experiences, for example, having lunch with the Nomadic Berber people in their home. I highly recommend to all considering - all you have to do is show up and be ready for awe and wonder.
I also want to mention - MedTreks seems to attract really amazing individuals for their trips - it was so fun getting to know each person in our group which made the experience that much better. Having previously taken group trips, this community felt especially connected and I only have positive things to say about the experience!! I think everyone drawn to MedTreks has a heart for adventure, life-long learning, and meaningful connection.
MedTreks has an unbelievable depth of knowledge having run tours worldwide for some 40 years now - I was blown away in conversation with Ari and with other travelers who have been on a trip with them in past. To hear about the trip planning and seriously INCREDIBLE experiences they coordinate inspires me to do all my travels with them!! Learning more about the positive impact of the trips on local cultures and the MedTreks foundation in Kenya is also so cool. It feels like this company is a hidden gem putting together once in a lifetime moments for people.
