A superior safari for the 6 of us
A friend of ours found very affordable flights to Kenya for the Christmas break. Aurelie helped us organize the perfect trip (and she speaks French) so that was very helpful for our group. The objective of the trip was to see Wilddog and Rhinos, the famous Masai Mara and also Mt. Kilimanjaro if we could fit it in, but we only had 8 days of total time in Kenya to work with.
After quite a few emails back and forth speaking about what we wanted to see in Kenya and also what kind of lodges and camps we wanted to stay in, Aurelie presented us with an unbelievable custom tour. She combined a driving tour with some flights so that we could cover everything on our list. In our camp in Amboseli we were with a guide from the Tawi Camp, who was very good. We saw Mt. Kilimanjaro and plan to climb it in the coming years, and are happy to know that E-Trip also climbs Kilimanjaro. We did a night game drive here (as recommended by Aurelie) and would recommend as you get to see alot of different wildlife.
We then flew to Ol Pejeta Conservancy were we met the E-Trip Africa guide named John. He was very knoweledgable and also had an excellent sense of humor. We were very luck to spot a pack of wilddog, which I understand is not an everyday thing. We also saw our fill of Rhinos.
The trip then went by road to Masai Mara stopping along the way near Lake Nakuru. The Masai Mara was mroe than I could have ever dreamt. The luxury camp is located right on the Mara River, so we saw wildlife even when in the camp.
I must commend Aurelie and her team for a memorable safari in Kenya. Aurelie worked hard answering all of our questions and building the tour that met all of our needs. It was a perfect selection of lodges and camps, and she always gave us the choice with plenty of details about each of the options available to us, all while being very transparent.
The next trip will be to take on Mt. Kilimanjaro and then hopefully go to find some Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda if we can afford it.

Outstanding service with a lot of heart and passion
My partner and I really enjoyed our 15-Day South Africa Tour including Swaziland and Lesotho and we want to thank you very much indeed for everything you did to help us have such an incredible time. All the arrangements with flights, accommodations, excursions – everything went so smoothly with your tour. We also loved your company and we fondly remember all the interesting explanations and conversations but also the quiet moments which gave us time to digest the wonderful impressions. Your willingness to answer all our questions in depth and sharing a special part of yourself made this journey very special to us.
Choosing you was a wise decision as we were able to adjust our itinerary along the way according to our interests and needs. We very much appreciated all your professional help and support in making our trip an experience of a lifetime.
Thanks to you we learned a lot about South Africa, its cultures and customs and the country’s past and future. Hearing the stories of people and their lives and visiting some of the most breathtaking places was fantastic!
Now looking at all the photos fulfils us with a great deal of happiness and joy.
Thank you very much once again for this truly memorable adventure, Craig ! You were amazing and we just loved your own personal touch! We would recommend you wholeheartedly to anyone who is planning to visit South Africa.
Hopefully we will get more people from Switzerland to travel to South Africa with YOU. We hope to see you again in the near future.

Review about Gombe National Park by Edeus
We could see the Chimpanzees in the communities
Gem of a travel agent!
We used Luciano Travel and Tours on a recommendation from a colleague, so were not sure of the level of service to expect. We booked a last minute visit to the Royal Livingstone Hotel in Zambia, and Shadrick Luyanga exceeded all our expectations. I would recommend him to anyone planning an African safari. The company is professional and efficient and they provided fantastic service, from meeting us at the airport in Zimbabwe, driving us through the border post and dealing with all aspects of our stay at the hotel. Shamrock even collected some personal effects I had forgotten at the hotel, and arranged for them to be forwarded to me in Harare.
What a lucky find!

Review about Kruger National Park by Joaquin Ceballos
Great experience. I saw at Kruger the Big 5, and I loved seeing all the animals in their habitat, without any sort of fence. The park is also very well maintained and well guarded, and animals are clearly well looked after by guides and rangers.

First class bespoke service from extremely knowledgable, flexible and friendly staff
We were recommended Alex by a friend who used her to book their honeymoon - we were not disappointed. From the first call when we thought we wanted to go to South Africa, she discussed what we wanted from our trip. After lengthy discussions, she said that if adventure, amazing scenery and landscapes was our thing, then she would recommend Namibia - we were blown away by the trip beyond all expectations and Alex pitched absolutely perfectly when it came to the mix of luxury and adventure - this was only possible due to her own experience in Namibia. We gave her a budget and she stuck to it rather than what most agents do which Is stretch and tempt you with things that you cannot afford. When a flight was cancelled prior to our departure, she sorted everything and gave us various options all within 24 hours and then sorted out the alternative bookings without a fuss or any cost. first day back and we are saving for our next trip with Alex as this is a truly bespoke service. We could not recommend highly enough. Thank you Alex.

Magical experience down the Zambezi
My friend an I found the overall experience uniquely african and supremely enjoyable. We found ourselves in the heart of the african wilderness, enjoying the sights and sounds of Africa, while always feeling safe and being made to feel comfortable by our experienced and knowledgable guides. I was also continually amazed at the five star food that our guides produced with the basic tools they had at their disposal.
Overall we had an amazing time and are definitely considering other tours by natureways upon our return to Africa.
