One of the greatest nature and human experience of our life!
We climbed the Kilimanjaro on January 2018 with EAV team and it was great! Contacts by mail (very kind), explanations, value for money...
But most of all, our guides and porters were absolutely PERFECT! We really "shared" this experience with them. Thanks to them, we felt always safe (our guides had impressive medical knowledges (we are doctor and physio)) and comfortable (good camp material and organization). The food was also delicious!
We STRONGLY recommend East African Voyage and our team:
- Guides: Goodluck Daniel and Godwin Makwaia
- Porters: Charles, Ocea, Antony, Emmanuel, Amisi, Poki, Ela, Saïdi, Elea, Swahibu, Adam, Moïsi, Heavenlight, Ayoub, Ceravino, Tegemea and Daniel (sorry if mistakes).
Asante sana to all the team!

East African Voyages - Beyond ALL Expectations
Do not choose any other African Safari tour. I cannot even begin to describe the attention to detail and accommodations that are made specifically for you with this company. My husband and I asked for an estimate for the cost of our trip, which we were very happy with. Low and behold - we were the only two people in our safari vehicle along with our guide and driver and could not have felt more accommodated and "spoiled" while on our fantastic journey. Alex and Moses made sure to ask us what the purpose of our trip was - photography - and continually asked how we were feeling about staying out longer, or heading back to our lodge, stopping for a break, lunch, etc. They were happy to join us for dinner and also were completely great about giving us our private time as well.
The coordinator for this company - Faith - cannot be praised enough. She answered quickly and thoroughly all of our many questions and emails and always went above and beyond the call of duty.
I can't even describe the top notch service and accommodations that we had while there. I recommend this company to everyone thinking about going to Africa. I know that for many, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to visit Africa, and I would have no hesitation at all, to send them to East African Voyage. We thought that it was a once in a lifetime trip as well, but now, we cannot wait to go back.
Thank you East African Voyage to exceeding far beyond our expectations!

The members of the staff were responsive, well-informed, friendly and efficient.
All excellent. From the first communications to the final day, everyone I dealt with was above average in all areas. Faith was able to accommodate our schedule changes easily. Sylvester, our guide, was beyond good in all aspects of his job.

Silvester is friendly, fun, knowledgeable and could always find the animals before other groups.
Faith was excellent helping us plan the trip that we wanted. And, she was able to make some last minute changes that we requested. She always responded promptly with good information. We loved working with her.
The service before and during the safari was excellent. We loved the tour and all of the places we stayed. The trip exceeded my expectations.
I highly recommend East African Voyage. I hope to return to do another trip with them!!

Very well organized!
We dealt with East African Voyage at the suggestion of a friend who lives in Tanzania. There are over 480 safari tour operators there and its very hard to pick one on your own. They have a reputation of being very fair to their employees and eco-friendly. We can't say enough good things about them. Our itinerary was very well laid out and they followed it to a "T". They were very flexible when planning it and had lots of great suggestions. Our guide, Alex, was awesome and we were so sad when we left him to continue on to other parts of Tanzania. We would definitely recommend East African Voyage and wouldn't hesitate to use them again. It was the holiday of a lifetime so we didn't want any problems and we were very pleased with them.

Professional, responsible, reliable, with a great itinerary and lodgings.
Four days from morning to night in a car driving for hours, and never a dull moment - wonderful wildlife, beautiful scenery, and a great guide, who spoke from long experience and with great knowledge and wisdom about every possible topic - the land, the animals, the culture, history, politics, etc. The arrangements were perfect, and the company was reliable - everything was as described, but truly, the guide made the trip. And the picnic lunches (I'm still craving that chicken).

Unforgettable safari in Tanzania! Excellent service!
This was probably one of our best trip so far! The 6 days safari was just perfect and unreal. We were so lucky to see so many animals and unbelievable landscapes. Our guide, Fidelis, was really friendly, authentic and knowledgeable about animals, nature and culture. He made us really confortable by ensuring that we enjoy 100% of our time in safari by just adapting the drive or day to whatever we want to see. We felt the heart in his work. For the booking process, it was really professional and easy. Our safari coordinator from East African Voyage answered all our questions and requests very quickly and made sure that we have all the necessary information. We trusted them since the beginning. We can’t find anything to improve for East African Voyage, everything was just smooth and perfect. Thank you for this unforgettable trip!

The experience of a lifetime.
I was in Tanzania from September 23 to 29 for safaris with our French speaking guide Imani Shoo.
It was a fabulous voyage. The food was very good, all the lodges absolutely confortables and magnificients. From the Laiboni camp, sleeping with the Masai to the beautiful Sopa Lodges, they were so different but all were unique! The last three days in Serengeti were just paradise. The Kati Kati Tented camp is just unbelievable!! The Tanzanians are so nice, we were treated like queens! All the National Parks were no less than nature at its best. The nature is so beautiful without human in it...
Finally, let me tell you that Imani was for a great part of success in this voyage. He speaks very good French, he has answers to every questions, he knows all the animal's names and behaviour, he did everything he could to please us and everything he could in order for us to see the animals at their best. But last but not least, he is very nice, very patient, very professional, very tactful for women that we are!!! I would certainly go back to Tanzania for another safari with Imani and if I ever know someone who plans to do a safari in Tanzania, I would refer Imani as the perfect guide for an unforgettable voyage in Africa!
Every step of the trip was well organized by East African Voyage, for our first night in Tanzania, our reservation was not booked for the Planet Lodge as it was supposed to, but our guide solved the problem and we were re-located to another Lodge near by, little less nice but still fine. All the safaris were very well planed and we saw «The Big Five». Even this flight in this little plane from Serengeti to Arusha was exciting!
Thanks to East African Voyage and its chief Julie Veillette

A well established and very ethical tour operator, highly efficient staff, sociable and welcoming
I get lost of words on expectations. Africans have a way of reminding us they don't operate on the clock but EAV showed to be proffesional in all operations. Timely communication, the guide for a choice of safari, and all preps. The picnic pack was awesome, i enjoyed that long tour at Ngorongoro Crater with the two gentlement giving the history and even making a mark by helping me capture pictures of the wild animals which will remain part of my files. Actually they beat my expectations in all angles.
I would actually recommend EAV for any and every friend searching for tour related service in Arusha and i wish to grow and remain one of the good examples of quality service delivery in Africa.
