Excellent 12 days safari!
Very well organized 12 day safari in Kenya and Tanzania. Erick was in contact with us all the time and answered all of our questions! The drivers were very competent and friendly, food was very good, campsites and hotels also were comfortable.
One of the best trips ever! Highly recommended!

Very good service and nice trip!
We were going on a trip for 5 days in Kenya, Tsavo east, amboseli, Tsavo west an Taita hills, wow! it was very beautiful and good service. Antony is the best driver!! He drives very good and save and knows a lot of information about almost everything. The lodges are very good, but Tsavo west maybe you can get another lodge. When we go back, we book our trip again with Ewamanns Safaris. It's a faithfull company.

5 day Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru
Ewamanns Safaris is one of the best safari organizers you can get in Kenya! I have already been on safari with them last year and came back this year. Hopefully, I can manage to come to Kenya again next year.
My fellow travelers and I were always really impressed by their conscientiousness and their expertise. Both are very important on a safari in Kenya and can't be taken for granted!
The whole safari organization was always just perfect: You get picked at the airport. Erick just waits already outside when you leave the building. From there on, everything went just perfectly smooth. First night in Nairobi, the following morning head off to Masai Mara. Our driver, Bonface, was the best driver you can wish for in such a country! He is very skilled and knows exactly what to do. Among his best skills are his good eyes! He spotted the animals way before we even looked in the right directions. This is not common! Many drivers are not as skilled as him! Having a talented driver is probably the most important thing you need on a safari. Due to him, we saw for example cheetahs and the big five, even the leopard. By the way, it was Bonface who spotted the leopard. If you know, how rare it is to see this shy animal, you can appreciate what I mean by "skilled driver". Of course, a national park in Kenya is no zoo, so seeing the big five is never guaranteed, but you can have bigger chances to see them, if your driver is good. He also knows all the animals, which at first sight seems not to be too special for a safari driver in Kenya, but it is. For example, there are lots of different kinds of antelopes which at first sight do not differ at all. Bonface can often see the difference already without any binoculars just by inspecting their typical movements. He will be happy to explain you everything about it and you will come back as an expert on antelopes and other animals in Kenya! If you have a driver, who is not able to distinguish the animals properly, you miss the most fascinating part of the whole safari!
After 5 days, we were dropped again at the airport and left the country some hours later. As in 2017, this was the best week in 2018.

Excellent service & great value!
I was very happy with the service received from Ewamanns Safaris - the price was very competitive, Erick was very attentive to my needs and offered lots of travel options that I could choose from. Pricing was excellent - I have not seen a similar offer anywhere else. Despite this, the level of service was above my expectations! The guides, hotels, food & the entire experience were perfect.

Best trip ever! Super drivers!, Th big 5 the very first day in Masai Mara, total respect for animals
Safari amazing! Driver always wanting the best experience for us. Saw as much animals we could! Good food!. Total Adventure sleeping in tented camps and camps in the middle of Serengeti with hienas en bufalos around! Hope to come back real soon!
Great budget Masai Mara trip
Great communication and service, both from the person who set up the trip and the guide/driver. Stayed in a tented camp which was of a good standard - the food was fine, given that this was a budget safari (good idea to take some snacks!). Driver/guide was knowledgeable and worked hard to make the trip enjoyable.

Very accomodating
Wonderful experience with Ewamanns. We needed to change plans last minute and they were so accommodating. Communication was quick in response and comprehensive. The whole operation was very slick. I would recommend them for their flexibility and attention. The safari itself was such an amazing experience. I would definitely use Ewamann as a safari operator again.

From the first moment on we have felt like family
My daughter organized our trip. And from her I know, that the communication before hand with Erick was excellent. He was there for any questions and guidance.
From the moment we arrived we were in good hands. And this kept during the hole low budget 12-day trip (Kenya and Tanzania). The game view was fantastic. We had so much luck with our guides ("Animal" in Kenya and Essau in Tanzania). We saw soooo many amazing things, not only the animal (Big five of course too) but also a cheetah hunting a Thomson gazelle and a crocodile catching a zebra. Since we were well prepared, we know that it could be really cold not only in the car watching the animals in the morning but also at night (especially at the top of the Ngorongoro crater in 2300 m). The temperature changed during the day from 28° to next to zero° Celsius). We had our own sleeping bag with us, a small towel for the camping sides in Tanzania, winter clothes and always enough toilet paper in our trouser pockets. We also had some spare water with us. For the tour everyone got 1 litre in Kenya and 1.5 litre in Tanzania per day. In the camps and in the hotel you could drink a lovely bear at night to refill your electrolytes. And we really loved the popcorn for dinner in Tanzania! Our accommodation were home stay (self organized in Nairobi), hotels, tents with included bathroom and tents with extern washrooms at the public camping sides in Tanzania. The tents were much larger than we expected and very comfortably. And so were the hotels. The food was also good and always, especially at night, far too much. For the next time we learned to protect ourselves in a better way against the dust. We would using a dusk mask rather than just using a scarf. For us the hole trip was an unforgettable experience and for this we want to thank Erick and his team very much. We hope to see him in the next future again. For all the wildlife friends out there we can highly recommend Erick and Ewamanns Safari.
