Outstanding experience
My husband and I had an excellent safari experience with African Big Cats Safaris. Our guide, Goodluck, handled everything in a seamless manner. We were introduced to the customs and culture of the country and enjoyed excellent wildlife viewing. This is our second African safari trip and we would never consider booking with any other operator.

I would recommend SimienEcoTours to anyone who is planning to visit Etiopia!
SimienEcoTours is an organization that makes tourists feel important. The organization offers good services regarding safari tours and tries very hard to meet the expectations of the visitors in the best possible manner. Communications were understandable in both language and resoning. To the best of their abilities the organization fullfilled my expectations.

Simien Eco Tours organised a flexible, amazing, adventurous and responsible a-la-carte tour for us!
Planning our travel with Simien Eco-Tours was an easy and very relaxed process. We had very specific needs and desires for this trip and each of them were looked into with great attention and flexibility. Our trip had to be very condensed and the team worked around our timeframe very well. The guides were amazing (both in Harar and the Simien Mountains), very knowledgeable, relaxed, friendly and pleasant. We always felt safe and were able to enjoy this trip at any time! The choices of accommodation and restaurants were always spot on, and the drivers and cars were very safe. We had been in Ethiopia before so we also know how hard it can be to organise such a complicated trip with our timeframe, but Simien Eco-tours managed perfectly! The safari in the Simien Mountains were the ultimate moment of the trip, our guide was patient and extremely knowledgeable. We loved it!

great experience his knowlegde of the bush was excellent, extremely enjoyed my time with Ranger buck
Ranger Buck communications was wonderful not once did we have to follow up anything but before we thought about it it was already answered, as a tour guide ( game ranger} I thought Ranger Buck was very knowledgeable his passion for wildlife and the outdoors shows in the way he handles every situation be it an anthill or a Lion he will spend his time explaining on anything big or small , He goes all out to make game drives worth every minute, He organized everything for us, all we had to do was to arrive, he communicates the whole time and actually very entertaining to listen to and to talk to.. It surely did live up to all the expectations I had on a Safari, and would recommend him to anyone wanting a good laugh and at the same time a good education of the Bush.

Ethiopia is awesome and allurung. The contry offers a varity on scenery and remarkable churches.
Our guides showed us their country from its best. I really enjoyed my trip to Ethiopia. The people were very frindly and did their best to show us the highlights of their contry. The trip was well organized and the guides gave us ample time to photograph the world famous churches of Lalibela and others and scenery. Some accomodations were better than other ,but that is normal on circle tours. Weather can not be influenced, but all in all the weather was not a disturbing factor.

Professional and perfect organisation with super guide and driver
To me our trip to Ethiopia has been an adventure in the first place. I didn't have any expectations other than completely relying on SimienEcoTours and their organization. I felt perfectly safe during the trip with our guide Abebaw and the driver Melis and I was well prepared with all the information which we had got before the trip. During the trip we had regular contact with the tour office of SimienEcoTours and had the opportunity to give feedback or ask for changes. Both Abebaw, our guide, and Melis, our driver, were good company during the entire trip and Abebaw did a perfect job as an ambassador for his country. I learnt a lot about Ethiopia and its people and I am sure that I will come back in the future.

Monkey Adventures is a very professional and value for the money outfit
We arrived at JRO airport in Arusha and were picked up immediately upon leaving arrivals hall. Our guide was Frank and he was very professional and a veteran guide of 15 years in the Serengeti. Our itinerary was 10 days over 4 camps and two days in Arusha. We drive out for the 10 days and flew back to Arusha from the central serengeti. We were very thankful that Frank was such a good driver of the Land cruiser because it was very wet and muddy in many places. I have a whole new appreciation for a Land cruiser after this trip. Our camps were superb! Everything went a smooth as silk on the whole trip. I would highly recommend Monkey and our rep Benson. As soon as this virus thing is over, I plan to contact Monkey for another trip to N. Serengeti to see the migration.
