Wonderful service!!!
As first-time travellers to South Africa, we needed all the guidance and recommendations we could get. Jolene was very helpful throughout the entire process and helped us plan the perfect itinerary for our trip. She was very patient with questions and very accommodating to our needs (we had a lot of requests!). She never gave no for an answer :). Once in South Africa, our itinerary developed perfectly as planned: from guides, to timings, to tours and activities, everything followed the highest standard of quality and professionalism. We had one activity that was cancelled and Jolene helped us get a full refund. I would definitely recommend ECTours and will make sure to contact them when I come back. Thank you Jolene, thank you East Cape Tours!

After 25 safaris, Tanzania is the best.
My first safari was to South Africa in 1998. I have made 25 safaris since then and now visit only Tanzania and the Serengeti. I have traveled to West, South and North in Tanzania. I would not return to Katavi and Mahale. I would certainly recommend all the parks in southern (Selous, Ruaha, etc.). Tarangire is great for Elephant lovers in particular and one must visit the Ngorogoro crater at least once. The Serengeti has a year round perpetual migration of Zebras and Wildebeest. In the south one can see the birthing of about 5000 calves a DAY in February...and all the big cats are drawn to this supermarket. The 'middle' of the Serengeti is home to all the cats year round as well as elephants, and very busy, but not to be missed. The north holds my favorite camp...Sayari. This is where I go to witness big migration crossing Mara River in August/Sept., but this area has wildlife all year. Tanzania has everything....all the cats: Lions, Leopards, Cheetahs, Servals and others. I have been to Namibia, South Africa, Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Ruanda and Tanzania. My favorite wonderful safari experience is still Tanzania, and I am returning for my 26th safari (and 10th arranged by Vuriva safari company) in August 2017.

Informitive, kind and caring crew! We saw the big 5!! Thank you Omar and Dogo.
My husband and I signed on for the 8 day camping safari. For months, up until we left for Africa, we had an easy time exchanging emails with Romeo. Omar, our guide, picked us up at The Vijiji Center and for the next 8 days he and our cook, Dogo, took care of everything for us. From campsite to campsite they set up the tents and laid out our sleeping mats for us. We were happy with the quality of the equipment. Meals were plentiful. Not only were the meals good but there was so much to eat! We really liked, what we called, the Dogo salad. The dressing was delicious. We really liked that our safari guide was knowledgeable and could answer all our questions. He always stayed as long as we wanted so we could take pictures and just watch the animals. We highly recommend Safari Multiways and if we ever do get back to do another safari we will go with them again.

Victoria Falls and Botswana
Wonderful trip to Victoria Falls on the Zambia Side and to the Sanctuary Chobe Chilwero resort in Botswana. Each day of the 9 day trip was well planned. Was able to add in several side trips including a trip to the Makuni village which was both enlightening and most educational. My wife particularly enjoyed the guided trips through the savanna to view the wildlife and natural fauna.
The two hotels they scheduled for us, The Avani in Zambia and the Sanctuary Chobe Chilwero Lodge in Botswana could not have been nicer. The Avani was within easy walking distance to the falls and hosted zebra, impala and monkeys on the property! I can not speak highly enough about the Chilwero Lodge. The rooms were spacious and immaculate. The staff was professional and eager to please the guests and make the stay there enjoyable.
An excellent trip I would heartily recommend to anyone thinking of visiting Africa.

Well planned, expertly executed, all-inclusive week in Uganda.
This was a very well planned trip and I would highly recommend Robert and Engagi Safaris. I originally found Engagi on a blog for low cost travel, but Robert really customizes the trip to your needs and budget. He has been operating as a tour guide in Uganda (in some capacity) for about 20 years so he is familiar with all the possibilities and full of ideas and suggestions for you. I emailed Robert before doing a lot of research on Uganda and what I wanted to do while there -- I had some ideas, but asked for his input and within a few days and a few emails we had an itinerary worked out that I was very happy with. He was always quick to reply and answered every question I had in detail.
Robert was very professional throughout the entire trip. Always on time with a clean (air conditioned) car stocked with snacks, and water. We were with Robert for a week, and he was eager to learn the types of things we liked so he could make sure to show us certain things he thought we would be interested in, or stop for different foods we wanted to try along the way.
Robert also seems to be friends with the guides at the different parks. The night before we went gorilla trekking, he asked us how long we would like to trek to see the gorillas. We told him about 1 hour (they can be as close as 20 minutes, or as far as 6 hours), later that night he spoke to the guy in charge and we ended up on a private trek and assigned to a gorilla family exactly one hour away. We couldn't have been happier!
Again, I would strongly recommend Engagi Safaris. Robert creates a very personal experience that feels really unique and special.

Uganda safari
This was my second vist in Republic of uganda, but I can confess that I enjoyed each and every minute of my trip in this country.
It was a great safari we had with this company . Elias was helpful and we were happy to meet you at the airport.
The guide was professional. keep the great work .
Professionally organised trip, good lodges, excellent wildlife guides
Kingfisher Safaris arranged our trip in a very professional manner, with no communication glitches, and with excellent liaison with the local Zambian tour company. We stayed in two lodges in South Luangwa National Park. The lodges were actually situated very close to each other and game drives from each covered the same territory, but we saw different wildlife on each drive, so this was not a serious drawback. The lodges were very well run and the time was organised in a very efficient manner between rest, daytime safaris and night drives. The lodge staff were friendly and professional, and our wildlife guides were excellent.

¡Brilliant!
My wife and I had an incredible time for ten days, we visited Manyara, Ngoro Ngoro, Serengueti, Tarangire and a hunting trip with the Hazdabe tribe near Lake Eyasi. Every park was different and unique and we managed to see the big and most of the wild animals very close. The stuff, guide and everybody in general were very professional and very organized, they took very good care of us and every detail. It was a once in a live time and very enjoyable trip that exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend booking with Travel Partner.
My best regards.
