Great service
We dealt with Denise for our reservation to Amakhala Game reserve and she was very good in her communication.
Amakhala Game reserve is beautiful , with service with a big smile , great safari drives ,passionate guides who go out of their way to make sure you spot as many of the animals , food catered to your diet , lovely rooms , cleanliness.
As it has just 4 tents , you can be sure you have a personal touch from the moment you Check in.
Great palce for a safari & relaxed holiday.

Wonderful service!!!
As first-time travellers to South Africa, we needed all the guidance and recommendations we could get. Jolene was very helpful throughout the entire process and helped us plan the perfect itinerary for our trip. She was very patient with questions and very accommodating to our needs (we had a lot of requests!). She never gave no for an answer :). Once in South Africa, our itinerary developed perfectly as planned: from guides, to timings, to tours and activities, everything followed the highest standard of quality and professionalism. We had one activity that was cancelled and Jolene helped us get a full refund. I would definitely recommend ECTours and will make sure to contact them when I come back. Thank you Jolene, thank you East Cape Tours!

Everything turned out perfect
We are almost one month back home, but I would like to thank Denise for the great arrangement at Kwantu private game reserve.
Everything was booked very short handed during our trip through ZA. Denise was very helpful and we emailed every time I had wifi access on our way from J'burg to Cape Town. So it took us a couple of days to arrange everything. Eventually the entire stay worked out great. We had a very warm welcome at the resort and the game drives were awesome. Our ranger was great too. We were able to see lions and elephants from a very short distance. So I will definitely recommend East Cape Tours to our friends.

Fantastic Service
Just returned from a 5 day trip to AM Lodge in the Kruger National Park, arranged by Jolene at East Cape Tours, she has been brilliant in looking after all our arrangements, which we never made easy for her.
As a company incentive trip Jolene has looked after all of our wishes and requests and even helped sort out a Soweto tour as we had a 10 hour wait to return home. Even when we had an internal flight cancellation due to bad weather, she immediately arranged for an overland transfer to take us to our lodge.
Hope to return again next year with even more of our staff and would not hesitate to use you again.

Excellent 3 week Zanzibar holiday
East Cape Tours organised the most fantastic 3 week self-drive round-trip in Zanzibar.
We were picked up from the airport and transferred to Stone Town, where we spent 3 nights. Then we had a hire car delivered to our hotel and we proceeded to travel all around the coast of this beautiful island for the next 2 and a half weeks.
It is one of the best holidays I've ever had, every detail was planned perfectly. All excursions and trips were booked for us according to our preferences, and their choice of accommodation was brilliant. I can't wait to return.
I would definitely recommend East Cape Tours.

Unforgettable vacation
It's a bit late but better than never :)
I wanna thank you both for this unforgettable vacation.
the stay in Luxury apartments - Cape Town - was amazing. excellent place and location.
as for the other hotels on our way to the reserve, each one of them has it's own charm and yet all of them had great service, welcoming staff and tasty food....
But the best was for last with Pumba game reserve. we had the best days of our lives, good mood and good food.
My family and I, we appreciate everything you did for us to make our vacation in South Africa unforgettable.
I would definitely go back and for sure recommend you to everyone I know who wants to visit your beautiful country.
Just one more thing, concerning the white shark dive, it didn't happen due to bad weather and I was wondering how the refund will be done.
thank you again for everything

Everything turned out perfect
Thank you for all your help everything turned out perfect. Ebrahim was super I'd highly recommend him to anyone traveling in Cape Town. Ismail was also excellent . We met Robert More at The More Quarters one morning he was extremely nice thought he might be at Lion Sands when we were there but left us a special message because he left the day we arrived and a book signed by him his greatgrandfather wrote.The staff at More Quarters were so friendly we loved our room and the hotel itself. Mont Rochelle is probably the most beautiful place we have ever been.Loved Franschook, The vineyards and wineries were magnificent. Could have spent more time there. The Lion Sands River Lodge was absolutely beautiful the staff was great and we had the best ranger in Neil and tracker Albert. Made friends with two couples we did our safaris with. Trip of a lifetime all we can do is pray we can go back some day. If we know anyone who is interested we will definetly refer you. Thank you again.

Highly Recommend
We booked our safari through East Cape Tours, who provided excellent service, managing to fit in our dates by swapping us between lodges and the free transfer from Port Elizabeth was an unexpected - and reliable - bonus.

Fantastic
Dears Ladies and Sirs,
we had just last month a Safari-trip in the Amakhala Game Reserve which I booked through your agency.
It was fantastic.
Now my father and me are planning for next year to visit the Victoria Falls, the Okavango Delta and Chobe National Parc.
Do you offer also these three destinations?
Please let me know.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Kind Regards,
Adriano Rizza
