Photography trip to Tanzania and Rwanda
E-Trip was the first and only travel company who replied to my enquiry about a trip to Tanzania and Rwanda, specifically dedicated for photography. Looking back, the other travel providers were all/mostly carrying tourists in their Land Rovers and Land Cruisers using their smart phones to take shots of the wildlife! I guess this does say something about E-Trip and their dedication to travellers who are interested in wildlife and nature photography.
About this topic: thanks to E-Trip I managed to capture some great shots which I added to my blog. A couple of articles and images can be found here:

Ben Jennings has been extremely helpful and friendly. He is very dedicated to his customers and will go the extra mile to make sure everything will go according expectations. A note to professional photographers: plan your trip carefully in relation to the African seasons; you may end up in a region that is either too dry or wet, so you may need to be prepared to make any changes to your itinerary.
On my next safari trip I'll make sure to join E-Trip again. Highly recommended!

Great one day safari of Arusha National Park
The arrangements with Lights on Africa was well organized. My guide for this one day safari, Anthony, was very knowledgeable about the plant life, the animals and geology history of the park. We had great close up photos with the giraffes and baboons. Nice box lunch. The safari vehicle was well maintained and clean.
I highly recommend this company. Jim T.

Authentic African
The safari tour was excellent. The guide / driver was very knowledgable and also very respectful to the animals and the environment as well as to us. Accomodation was well prepared. Overall communication was excellent and any issues thatarose e.g. paperwork around entry /exit to parks was Tanzania rather than the company. I would thoroughly recommend this company and Bryson to people who care about the environment and the nimal kingdom. The visit to Maasai village was an added bonus for us.
Fantastic
Went for a safari. Massai mara park and have a wonderful experience. The kids as well as us enjoyed to 4 day Safari.

Operator that delivers and goes beyond expectations
We had the experience of our life in the Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Arusha Parks. Achmed, the owner is really going the extra mile to make your stay unforgettable. We travelled as a family of 4 with our cook Zaccharia and driver/guide Yuda. Zaccharia serving us a variety of delicious local and international dishes. Yuda being an excellent spotter and knowledgeable guide on fauna, flora and country. Both working hard to give us the best experience. Lots of humour shared as well during the week! We opted for the camping safari to experience the real thing, and we did! Animals all around us, no fences, just fantastic and unforgettable. We have seen so much, that it is hard to believe there is anything left that we haven't seen, thanks to Yuda and of course a bit of luck. A special treat were the Wild Dogs, an event that made Yuda even very excited and Achmed jealous when we returned to base. Last but not least a special thank you to Achmed for reorganising our trip twice as we missed our connection flight to Tanzania and arrived one day later, and reorganising our Mt Meru Climb into a memorable walking and touring Safari in the Arusha Park instead, where we came meters from the animals with an armed Ranger by our side. Thanks to our guide Robert for the day, and driving our son to the clinic for treatment. We will recommend Basecamp everywhere we can and hope to come back to climb Mount Meru or the Kili with you!

Everything was well taken care of from start to the end. So efficient!
Hello Tanzania made our travel experience so pleasant and well taken care of from the minute we arrived DarEsSalaam. We had our Safari Tour in Mikumi and Udzungwa for 2 days, the stay in Camp Bastian was great! I felt like the hospitality there was so personalized and attention to detail. It was lovely. We then transferred to Zanzibar for another 2 days there, before we headed back to DarEsSalaam for our flight back to Dubai. Everything from transfers (car, ferry, charter flight) to accommodation was arranged by them according to whatever my requests were. I communicated directly via whatsapp with Mwajabu and she was always on point in replying to my queries and last minute requests! Truly admirable. All in all, itt was a memorable great experience for my first time in Africa..and I did the right choice in choosing Hello Tanzania to help me out with it. Asante sana!

Coffee Tour and Waterfall hike
This tour was beyond my expectation. More fun then I could have ever imagined. Made our own coffee right then and there. Sang songs while preparing, and then hiked to the waterfall. Stunning ...... Brought me to tears. The tour guide was the most lively, wonderful guy ever. I would suggest booking with Zuri Tours and safari for any of your travel needs. Zuri team is incredible, trustworthy, well trained and very helpful guides. Loved every second.

Great Safari experience and tour of Joburg
Bongizwe has been an exceptional tour guide. We spent together a week touring the different parks and he's been always helpful and ready to "amend" the plan to satisfy our requests. He's very knowledgeable about African culture and nature and we couldn't have asked for anything more.
