One of the best tours of our lives!
I believe that the first thing I have to praise Earthwings, and Martin in particular for is their honesty and liability, they really care for their clients and are able to build a safe and very trustworthy relationship. Martin planned my trip in very detailed and thoughtful way, managing to include all the parks I wanted to visit, with amazing accommodation options. We visited Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. So a really big thank you!
Regarding the tour, it completly exceeded our expectations. Of course the views were superb, and the all environment out of a dream, but what made it really special was our driver David. David went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience and we enjoyed the most of the parks. He is a vet, so driving with him around the reserves was like being on a national geographic show in real time, he knew everything about the animals, the best spots to find each animal, honestly so but so rewarding! His multitasking, problem solving and time management skills are amazing. We manage to see the big 5, and we had incredible safari tours with picnics. We really leave a good friend in Kenya,
Thank you all for making Kenya even more beautiful.

Truely "world class" wildlife and scenery but with food poisoning
In late June, we did the beach (Zanzibar) and safari (Serengeiti) tour, about four days for each location. Perfect weather, amount of time, and excellent staff support. Saw everything you can reasonably expect to see, many times upclose. It's expensive but honestly a great value. The only downside I have to mention was repeated food poisoning. For a family of four, we got sick 4-5 times in 11 days and were recovering for about a week after we got home. We took all the vaccinations, pills, sprays, and sanitizers. We had one day, the first day, where no one was in the bathroom (actively being sick), recovering in bed, or carefully going out but always close to a bathroom. We had to delay and cancel plans or do something without someone. Even when we did something amazing (like the dolphin dive or a night game drive), often one person felt "iffy". It diminished the experience. One time, my son got sick eating at the Arusha airport- our fault; the food had been sitting all day. But the other three, possibly four times, were from top-rated, high-end, "Western" restaurants. We never ate street food. In the end, it felt like you could not escape getting sick unless you only ate or drank "factory-sealed" items (even if they said they used bottled water for the ice or coffee.) I tried to stay positive, but it was the worst experience we've had as a family (and we've been to Thailand, Columbia, South Africa twice, across the Pacific, and Greece). If I had to do it again, I'd only stay at an inclusive lodge where they felt ownership for food safety. Sadly, I would not go out to eat, which is a big part of our travels. I'll accept food poisoning once, maybe twice, but every two or three days for four different, relatively experienced people across three locations is a systemic hygiene issue.

An undiscovered treasure
We had the most incredible time. Our guide and driver was outstanding and so friendly. Uganda is a beautiful country with so much to explore. Murchison Falls and the Nile are breathtaking! Our safari day was beyond anything we expected. The landscape is gorgeous and we saw hundreds of animals. A true bucket list trip!

Great self drive trip
The first contact with Anja was very good, she perfectly met our expectations. It was very convenient to have a guide for our trip that Anja gave us upon our arrival, everything was well organized with a map, vouchers for hotels. We just would have liked to have been warned when booking that the nights could be very cold to sleep in a tent, I think if we had known we would not have chosen this option. Our car for our 14 days of travel was in very good condition and comfortable, and the staff friendly, they just arrived 30 minutes late to drop us off at the airport for our departure, but the driver did his best to ensure we were on time. Our stay went very well, the landscapes are incredible, however we do not recommend the hotels inside the Etosha National Park, the quality and service are not there for the price.
