Two amazing weeks in the Pearl of Africa
We spent two wonderful weeks around Uganda thanks to the flawless organization of the tour by Costantino, the director, and his collaborators. We were five nature lovers, so our tour was tailored to see as many animals as possible. The tour operator proved to be very helpful just from the very first steps of the tour organization and they managed to accommodate all our requests. All the accommodation were clean and comfortable and the staff was always friendly. One of our travel mates walks with crutches, but we always found kind people willing to help him in any occasion.
The vehicle, a Toyota Land Cruiser, was clean and in perfect conditions. Fresh bottled water was available during the whole tour and plastic was collected to be recycled (not so usual in Uganda!). A special mention to our guide, Charles, who, in addition to being an excellent driver, is also a great expert of the Uganda fauna. He often spotted mammals and birds that were almost invisible to our eyes.
If you are a vegetarian, do not worry because in every place we had the possibility to eat vegetarian food. We would like also to point out the tour operator attention to the local environment and social issues. We loved to be the first tourists engaged in the Bugoma Forest Conservation Campaign and we do hope that Costantino and his supporters can preserve this precious forest. Not to mention the fact that, during the gorilla trekking in the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, we stayed in a lodge run by the local community, so that the money earned from our stay could be invested for the community welfare, in particular for the construction of a water tank for the dry season. We really appreciated the idea to give back something to this beautiful country!

Wonderful holiday in Namibia
I was pleasantly surprised and very pleased with Namibia and our whole experience from dealing with ATI Holidays (Cameron) and all Namibians on route whether in lodges or at gas stations. Friendly people, great food, unbelievable scenery and a fantastic adventure. Literally everything in ATI Holidays had been taken into consideration, for example mobile phone and a cooler box for the drives! Never have I received such a good service 24/7 from a travel agency. I can recommend to everyone!
The best tour operator I have ever been with
I had wanted to go on a safari since I was a boy and had never been to Kenya before.
I therefore did a lot of research on which company to use and chose Beacon Safaris. Robert answered all my many questions quickly and comprehensively. His suggestions worked out brilliantly and these, together with the enthusiastic guiding and driving by Anthony, made sure that I saw far more than I expected. Indeed Anthony took on my requests as a personal mission to fulfill and fulfill them he did.
The 8 day safari worked like clockwork and my wife and I felt safe and secure the whole time.
I cannot recommend Beacon Safaris highly enough and this is the easiest 5 out of 5 I have ever given.

Most of the time the expectation were fulfilled. Our guide was an excellent knowledgable, responsible and carrying guide.

Vacation of a Lifetime
When my husband and I booked a 4 day safari with El Mundo Safaris, we had no idea what to expect. We were traveling to Africa for a missions trip, and figured we "should" do a safari while we were there. After all, who knew if we'd ever be back to Africa? What began as a trip about which we were a bit hesitant, and somewhat ambivalent, became the trip of a lifetime --- and we've had some amazing vacations. From day one, when the owner of the company spent a relaxed coffee time with us just getting to know us, until the last day when we hugged goodbye, each detail was perfect. The trip included beautiful and luxurious accommodations, excellent food, amazing game drives which allowed us to see every animal we had imagined, and a driver who made all of the above even more perfect. What makes this company special is their attention to people. Both Elvis, the owner, and Msami, our driver, became lifelong friends, simply because their interest in us went beyond the safari, creating relationships and memories. We laughed together, learned about each other and our very different cultures, and shared common interests and dreams. When we said goodbye to each of them, it was with the hope of seeing them again. El Mundo provided the most amazing vacation we could have imagined. I have already recommended them to family and friends, and WHEN we return, it will be to book another safari with El Mundo Safaris.

A fantastic experience from start to finish!
Safari with Easy Travel more than met our expectations. Five stars is not enough!
Our booking was handled by Caudence, who answered all our enquiries very swiftly. She was very helpful and put together a package quite in accordance with our wishes. We were five adults and two children in one safari vehicle with Emmilian as our chauffeur/guide. The car was a Toyota Landcruiser with ample space for seven passengers (all with window seats).
Our safari started and finished at the airport in Arusha. We spent four days on safari and visited four different parks (Tarangiere, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro). We also visited Mto wa Mbu village and a masai family. On the last day, we visited a coffee plantation.
All the parks were fantastic and offered very varied animal life. We saw the big five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo) in addition to cheetah, hippo, thousands of wildebeest and zebra on migration, wildebeest calving, many different species of antelope, giraffe, monkey, dik-dik, hyena, jackal, ostrich, vulture and a range of other birds.
The accommodation was above all expectation, especially Maramboi Tented Camp where the swimming pool had great views of Lake Manyara, and Tortilis Camp in the middle of the Serengeti with animals very close to the tents at night.
Emmilian was an excellent chauffeur and guide who happily took detours to make sure we saw absolutely everything he thought worth seeing. He was professional, very experienced, knowledgeable about animal life and culture and knew the area inside out. He was also very good with the children, who saw every single animal they wished for!
We give Easy Travel, Caudence and Emmilian our warmest recommendations.

Excellent opportunities to see big game and exotic birds in an almost indescribable setting.
