Fraudulent Company
My family just returned from a two week trip to Kenya. The first few days were great and we were really enjoying our trip until we got to the 3rd hotel and were told it hadn't been paid for. The remaining hotels on our trip and park fees were not covered, even though we paid for the entire trip upfront. We had to repay for all of these fees to upwards of several thousand dollars. Peter was evasive and would not let us know when or how he would repay these double payments. If you're I search for Peter Muthinja you will find he has a record of doing this under other company names. We managed to still enjoy our trip (with no help from e-travel management) the best we could, but this definitely left a lot of stress and a mark on our family's trip.

Another case of fraud
Shame on Peter - did the same to us as the previous poster. Live and learn...

Great company, nice guide and a lovely country
A safari does not come any cheap and is one thing that you should get just right. I took our two teenage sons to Kenya and I can say we had so much fun on this safari.
The overall organization by e-travel was quite impressive from start to finish. Our guide Timothy was extremely knowledgeable and had so much information to share with us. Nothing was much trouble for him, he worked tirelessly just to make us happy, which we were definitely.
We saw so many animals and driving right next to them. This was the most fun and best experience for anyone to do! We loved it!

The very best Safari trip ever
My husband and I took the 7-day Lewa and Maasai mara safari with you a fortnight ago and WOW!!! The entire safari was phenomenal! Every camp received all tens from us!! The guides were awesome especially ones at the Lewa camp, they love what they do and we was utterly impressed by their knowledge and willingness to share with us. The entire adventure was memorable and amazing; the very cold nights at lewa safari camp made us spend late into the night at the fireplace as we listened to the lion roars and the ever-laughing hyenas. We especially liked the four nights at the sand river camp, this gave us a chance to relax and enjoy each and every moment. We saw hundreds of all the beautiful animals and birds. Thank you for all your hard work in preparing our itinerary. It was perfect!! With appreciation and gratitude. Your attention to detail was much appreciated, thanks a lot for making sure we had gluten free meals in all the locations---delicious!!!)
We will definitely be coming back soon and are sure to send many people your way.

A very reliable and trustwothy tour company
On behalf of entire group let me say Thanks for helping to make our trip to Kenya a memorable one. From the hotels, to the safari, to the meals, to our driver David, it was all outstanding. I can't say enough great things about dealing with your company. As you can imagine it was a bit scary on our end dealing with a company so far away that we had no past history with, but now I am going to recommend you to anyone who is thinking about planning a trip to Kenya.We are already talking about our return to your beautiful or perhaps a trip to Tanzania, and I know I will be calling you to make the arrangements. Thanks again for all your help and please feel free to use me as a reference.

Easy to work with and reasonably priced
I had earlier put this review down, am resending though...
I used this tour operator for a short fly-in safari to the maasai mara.
I found them to be honest and very easy to work with.
All correspondence before our trip was seamless. Although the game drives were provided by Olanana Safari camp, all the arrangements including flights and transfers were handled by e-travel without any glitch.
I got a very competitive price for the 3 night safari to Maasai mara, (cost was very important with the Leu dipping sharply against the US $ :) )
Would recommend them to anyone planning on taking a Kenyan safari.
P.s. I will be contacting you shortly for I am planning on visiting Kenya again with my extended family in June.
