Planning, lodging, game parks/reserves and guide knowledge/friendliness all exceeded our expectation
E-Trip worked with us to plan the trip we wanted, often going the extra mile. With their experience, they offered suggestions to enhance.
Upon arrival, everything ran like clockwork. The knowledge of each country's guide was much appreciated. Each worked to find animals and situations where we would see all of the natural splendors of East Africa.
Lodging per our preferences was also very good. Each site staff was pleasant and accommodating. Food was ample and tasty.
We are so glad to have selected E-Trip as our coordinating company. Not being fond of tours, we hoped instead for a personal experience - one not burdened with boilerplate activities and unenthusiastic guides. E-Trip delivered a trip of a lifetime with great memories of people we met, lodging to remember and experiences that were just awesome!

Provided wonderful planning assitance with thorough and timely respones all at a very fair price.
Working with Ben and Aurelie was a great experience. As independent travelers, we had specific ideas about where we thought we wanted to go and what we wanted to see. Their on-the-ground knowledge and experience gave us relevant insight and guided us through the whole process. Their suggestions were spot on and made for a great trip. Timely responses and detailed info was routine. And, the price was better than most packaged options.

Mesmorizing safari
Everything was organized perfectly by e-trip Africa, from the airport pickup to the dropoff, and everything in between. We stayed at Governor's camp in Masai Mara, which was one of a kind. E-Trip Africa really made this a superb experience.

Highly Recommended
We had a great trip over 2 weeks with etrip covering tarangire, ngorongoro, central Serengeti, lobo and northern Serengeti. I was particularly impressed with the communication and organisation both before and during the trip. I would not hesitate to recommend etrip.

Outstanding service and attention to details to an affordable price.
This was my second time letting E-trip handle my custom made safari. As a photographer I am very picky about details and I was surprised how well E-trip handled all my special requests. Everything from camps, drivers and flight arrangements were taken care of with the utmost attention and service quality. There is a jungle of safari tour operators out there of a varied level of quality. Being a photographer who is in Africa twice a year, with very high demands, it is a huge help having E-trip taking care of all my arrangements.They make my life so much easier.
Can't recommend enough!

All around great trip!
We worked with Ben to plan our African safari with priorities on Rwanda gorilla trek and Kenya wildebeest migration. Ben was great to work with, allowed us to customize based on our budget needs, and always was available via email with questions or problems that arose before and during the trip. In planning our trip, we looked at proposals from 4 other operators and were very pleased with our experience through E-Trip Africa. Most of the other trips were thousands of dollars more with limited lodging selections and planned itineraries. We found E-Trip Africa to be very flexible and personalized....kudos to the staff, highly recommended!

Kilimanjaro - 7 Day Rongai Route
We could not have had a better experience with E-Trip. Every single detail of the trip, from before we arrived, through our departure from Tanzania, was covered with extreme attention and care. Our guides, Caspar and Prosper, were incredible. They had years of experience, and kept us in good spirits and great health all the way to the top. They were treated like celebrities by the other guides and porters on our route...Clearly they are the among the best at what they do. The porters, all supported by KPAP, were engaging, hard working, hilarious, and eager to be our friends while we were on the mountain. They kept our spirits high and added so much to the experience. We were truly sad to leave the team when we had finished the climb. When I go back, I will undoubtedly be climbing with E-Trip, and I have recommended them wholeheartedly to friends and family. Just exchange a few emails with Ben and the rest of the team, and you will quickly see how much they care about you and the quality of your experience. Karen even visited us after our climb to get feedback on our experience. This represents their commitment to the client experience. I cannot say enough positive things about E-Trip, and hope I have represented them well in this review. They made a once in a lifetime experience truly perfect.

Amazing first safari
I had an absolutely amazing experience during my first safari with etrip. Couldnt have been more satisfied with both the service and arrangements. Came in from China more than 24 hours delayed to Nairobi and almost missed my connection flight from Wilson where my trip would start. I sent email to Ben and Aurelie on my way down and they kept contact and tracked my detour until I finally reached Nairobi. They did their outmost to make sure I felt calm and make all possible changes so I wouldnt miss any of the experience. Including to find and take care of my lost luggage and making sure it arrived safely to the camp. I really appreciated the personal and friendly treatment from both Ben and Aurelien. I can strongly recommend etrip to everyone who are planning their first safar tripi. You will be in safe hands for sure.

I had a great Kilimanjaro hike & Serengeti trek with eTrips Africa
The team running eTrips was very professional, though we did have a problem with my brother's visa that they should know about. Our 2 guides were fantastic
