Perfect, it couldn't have been better!
We were met in Nairobi by TJ with champagne, hats and a gift pack, and a surprise invitation for dinner at the Manji family's home the next evening, with other Safari guests. We had a lovely evening with Manaz, Rahim and families, thank you. Our 12 night Safari was amazing. Our guides/drivers were extremely knowledgeable about the country and the animals, they were skilled drivers and very pleasant companions. Seif, Abdul and Ibrahim were always helpful and managed to show us many animals from the best advantage site.
Our accommodation was first class everywhere, however we particularly loved the smaller lodges Mbweha Safari Camp and Tipilikwani Mara Camp as they were more intimate and laid back.
We would highly recommend Twiga Tours to anyone considering a safari trip.

Superb crew and Amazing safari
We just returned to the United States from a 12 day trip to Kenya with 6 family members. The staff of this company and the entire crew worked with us to plan every details of our tour. Everything went according to our schedule and without any drawback. During the trip the driver and our tour guide were extremely helpful and respectful. They built the trip with a great balance to accommodate all our needs. We got enough time to enjoy Amboseli national park, Masai Mara game reserve and Tsavo East and West national park. In a word, both the trip and and our travel agent were superb and I will always be using this company. Kudos Kenya tru Nomad.

Great experience all round
We have recently returned from a 2 week trip through Kenya and Tanzania organised through Etrip. We had an amazing time, and would highly recommend this company. Our trip was arranged at reasonably short notice for this kind of trip (2 months prior to leaving) and Aurelie and Ben were very flexible in sorting out an itinerary that ticked all the boxes for us. They were professional and transparent through the whole process, providing an exact breakdown of all our costs and also patient when we had issues transferring payment. We had a bit of a hiccup when the Tanzanian government changed its VAT exemption rules which meant even though we had paid for our trip in full, we we liable to further costs - a difficult situation for the tour operators that was again dealt with professionally and transparently, meaning we incurred slightly higher fees but also that the rest were absorbed in good faith by Etrip.
We had 2 guides (one in each country) that were both knowledgeable and friendly, and we had a great time learning about their countries with them. Ben also made an effort to meet up with us in Arusha towards the end of our trip to make sure everything had gone well.
Overall, a great experience from start to finish. Highly recommended.

Awesome Africa experience with Etrip
From start to finish etrip was great. We were able to give our budget, the things we wanted to see, and the timeframe, and they were able to sort out a great itinerary for us. Drivers were knowledgeable friendly and funny, the vehicles were great, lots of room, the accommodation was exactly what we wanted, and we saw every animal! I've already recommended them to my parents who are going over next year.

Abundance of wildlife and good location
With a good motorway from Durban, we found the Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Game Reserve to be a good safari destination with hills and valleys making for some variety in the scenery. We saw an abundance of wildlife. Our highlight was seeing and photographing lions in close proximity on both days we were there. We also saw elephant, white rhino, zebra, blue wildebeest, buffalo, warthog, nyala, kudu, impala and a variety of birds. The facilities were good and the staff friendly. Generally, it was an all-round pleasant experience. We also found the location handy, as it’s a relatively short drive to Lake St Lucia for coastal wildlife.

Review about Kruger National Park by tapaculo99
Kruger lived up to the hype for wildlife and birding... In three days we saw an exceptional amount of game and birds. Highlights were Hyenas right outside the fence at Balule Camp (high score for bush vibe), Southern Ground-Hornbills, and a leopard right by the roadside near Satara.

My Favorite place in Botswana.
The sunset cruise is a must.
Chobe National Park is an open window to the Pleistocene Period.
The concentration of megafauna is beyond imagination.
Here you will find some of the largest elephant and buffalo herds in the entire African Continent.
Not to mention real close encounters with Lions, hippo's, crocodiles and monitor lizards.
The rare Puku and the Red Lechwe are also very common.
Bird life is also abundant.
These are some of the pictures that I got in a couple of days.

Review about South Africa by tapaculo99
Wildlife was amazing in the game parks - we saw something like 35 species of mammal in our 3-week trip.
Scenic beauty was great as well, especially in Kruger, Hluhluwe, and the Drakensberg Mountains.
Birding was excellent - we saw over 300 species during our trip, mostly without hiring guides.

Review about Botswana by Yamil Saenz
The tour guides are very friendly and knowledgable.
They really know how to spot wildlife and how to position their vehicles to provide great photo opportunities.
To maximize your experience, let the tour guide the purpose of your visit.
They will be glad to assist you.
Don't forget to tip your tour guide!
I suggest at least $10 per person.
