East African Voyage

Great experience, I could not be happier!

The East African Voyage took me on a 8-day Kilimanjaro trek followed by a short 2-day custom safari in Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater and week-long Zanzibar holiday. I could not be happier with the service provided (including flights, transfer, hotel arrangements etc). This trip was in the planning for 6 months and during this period I had full support from Faith Kimani @ EAV, who helped me understand every option I had and clarified my many, many doubts with clear, complete information every time. During the climb we were assisted by an amazing crew of about 40 people - every one was kind, helpful and knew exactly what they were doing. Our trip leader, Mr. Victor Kynionga, cared for each one of us as well as his crew with extreme attention all the time. We felt safe and well instructed all the time. Food was great & plentiful, as well as all the equipment used in the trek. And, besides that, the whole crew was really friendly, caring and fun - just really pleasant people to be around! They literally went out of their way to make sure we all had a great time and the best chances possible to reach the summit safely - they even considered changing our itinerary mid-climb, when at one point we discussed if that would be best (we decided not to after all). After our successful climb we went on to an AMAZING safari, custom built for us considering we had little time, and again EAV's service was perfect: the safari sites were amazing and our hotel could not be better. For Zanzibar, same thing. Thank you, East African Voyage team! Thank you Faith, Victor, Ray, Big Mamma, Karim, Gasper, Daniel, Jerald, Nuru and all of you who made this trip the best of my life!

The best African tour company ever!

I have toured with EAV twice, indirectly via Mountain Travel Sobek and again last year directly. I worked with Onesmo Gabriel, the owner, to develop a safari in Kenya and Tanzania for a group of my closest friends. It was spectacular! Onesmo was our trip leader along with Sylvester who assisted. As guides, they were fantastic as were each of our drivers. I trusted them all to give my friends and me a wonderful experience, and my trust was not misplaced. I highly recommend this group and, in fact. am going on another safari to Southern Tanzania in July of 2015.

Outstanding customer support, spectacular guides, fantastic catering, great logistics, impecable on customer orientation, attention to detail.

Great Kilimanjaro Experience!

Company was very professional and safe. Great high end trip, especially if you're afraid that you won't make it to the summit - they're you're best chance!
