Very efficient planning, superb safari, thank you.
We have just returned from an 8 day safari with Easy Travel. From the very first enquiry email our needs were met with prompt efficiency and attention to detail. Nothing was too much trouble for Caudence who is a real expert in planning the trip and enabling it to go as smoothly as possible. The payment process was straight forward and we appreciated the immediate acknowledgement of the transfer. I would thoroughly recommend anyone to use Easy Travel instead of going through a British (or European, American etc) travel agent. The process is perfectly safe, this is a big company which is an expert in its field, all these reviewers cannot be wrong!
The safari itself was amazing. Our guide Herman is a true professional with an incredible ability to find animals, and has real skills in finding the best angle to view and his patience is second to none. His knowledge of the area, geology and fauna and flora is superb and we had many an interesting discussion about all aspects of the safari. Herman worked incredibly hard, sometimes for more than 10 hours a day on safari, driving v safely and always ensuring that we had the best experiences ever, we not only managed to see every conceivable animal, very many at close quarters, but we also observed their behaviour, lions basking in the sun and in trees and their cubs playing, elephants enjoying the water and baboons at play. We even saw leopards moving close to the vehicle and cheetahs hunting their prey and rhinos in the distance. A superb experience from a very dedicated team.

Amazing 4day trip to serengeti, ngorongoro and tarangire.
Finding Meru Slopes and Communication:
We found Meru Slopes Safaris on Safaribookings and were surprised about the good reviews and the cheap price. After contacting Geoffrey, we immediatley got different offers and he always answered emails within hours. The tour operators were very flexible and compromising.
The Safari and accomodation:
Accomodation was one day in a hotel in arusha before and after the safari, and tents during the safari trip. It was very basic but our cook Godfried was good and ambitious to fulfill all our wishes. Our tourguide Innocent was very dedicated. He told us a lot about the national parks, the animals and took us to the best spots. We saw the big five and many more than expected.
All in all we had a great trip and would highly recommend meru slopes to anyone who is looking for a budget tour. You simply cant expect more for this price.

Amazing trip which was well organized and great guide!
Elias helped arrange a 2 week tour throughout Tanzania for my dad and I. It was an amazing trip and the accomodations were generally really outstanding for that price. We saved a lot vs booking with an American provider. We had a guide named John who was really great and was recommended to us by another group. Definitely recommended!

Incredible Holiday
We had an absolutely superb holiday at 3 different locations in the Serengeti managed by Nomad. The relatively new camp at the Crater was really lovely, with great views out to the crater, gorgeous accommodation and wonderful hospitality by the team. The "portable" camp in the southern Serengeti that follows the migration was, understandably, a little more rustic, but also terrific and we were very well looked after by John and the team. The final location at Lami in the north was incredible and luxurious. Rose from the Luxury Safari Company was very communicative and responsive and provided a great overview of the type of trip we would be taking. The safari lived up to our expectations and more - the wildlife was extraordinary, the guides knowledgable and professional and the camp hosts incredibly hospitable where nothing was too much trouble. Loved every minute.

Great experience!
We went on an 8 day safari with Travel for Change and couldn't have had a better experience. During the initial process of setting the itinerary they were very informative and took our requests and also provided suggestions. Email responses were prompt and we felt like they had our best interests in mind. Once in Kenya our driver Patrick picked us up at the airport and always went the extra mile to make sure our experience was a memorable one. His knowledge of the animals and terrain were remarkable and we were continuously learning new things each day. He also knew exactly where to go and when to see lions and other animals at the right time which only added to the experience. The accommodations they booked for us exceeded expectations an we would highly recommend Travel for Change to anyone!

Great attention to detail!
Booked a 2 day Safari with Avocet this past January. Jeff was very professional and made sure the booking went smoothly with everything involved during the Safari. I highly recommend Avocet Tanzania Safaris!

Everything turned out perfect
We are almost one month back home, but I would like to thank Denise for the great arrangement at Kwantu private game reserve.
Everything was booked very short handed during our trip through ZA. Denise was very helpful and we emailed every time I had wifi access on our way from J'burg to Cape Town. So it took us a couple of days to arrange everything. Eventually the entire stay worked out great. We had a very warm welcome at the resort and the game drives were awesome. Our ranger was great too. We were able to see lions and elephants from a very short distance. So I will definitely recommend East Cape Tours to our friends.

Amazing experience, they know what they have to do to provide a high level service.
First of all, i must say this safari experience was awesome.
In order to improve customer s experience i will refer to one detail: check the gps devices because it showed outdated ways occasionally.
I consider this is like a drop of water in the sea. I recommend Tailor Made Safaris to every person i know.
My girlfriend and i felt them really close during all the tour.

Wonderful experience
Had a fantastic time! Safari was super well organized, offered complementary beverages and snacks, had very nice and knowledgeable guides. The only minor issue was the driver got lost twice. But no big deal, he quickly found the right way and he was also very friendly and shared interesting information about South Africa. All in all I really recommend this company!
