Fabulous safari
The safari operator faced a challenging task to organize a tour for us. We were a group of 7 - two families and a friend, with varying accommodation and dietary requirements. We had a short time (5 days) and wanted to cover a lot of sightseeing and game-viewing. And we were on a tight budget.
But we had a fantastic safari, without out a single blemish. The manager, Noah, planned the tour very well. He answered my emails very quickly and discussed issues over Skype when necessary. He clearly understood our requirements (which we kept changing), and arranged the safari accordingly.
Eustace was a superb guide and driver for the entire safari. He was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Starting from Nairobi we covered Amboseli, Lake Nakuri and Masai Mara within 5 days. Thanks to Eustace, we saw the big 5 and much more.
We stayed in excellent luxury game lodges organized by Noah and Eustace made sure that we were comfortable.
In short, we enjoyed much more than many of our friends, who paid much higher prices.

Excellent safari from Arusha through the Serengeti, including Ngorongoro Crater
Easy Travel used the Serena group of hotels/glamping for my 11 day safari. The accommodation was of a high standard and the staff were very well trained to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Our guide, Gerald, did an amazing job of spotting and identifying anything that moved (and even if it didn't!), and at whatever distance. The game drives were full on but one always had the option to stay and relax in the resort, some even had swimming pools. The safari met all my expectations and the African Savannah with all the wildlife one could wish to see, was exceptional.

An amazing photographic adventure of a lifetime.
A trip to Kenya and Botswana with the Big 5 Safari was the highlight of 2015.
In fact it was a highlight of our many travels over the years, and a photographic journey which both I and my husband thoroughly enjoyed.
The attention and care shown to us during this time was exceptional with all our needs met by Lourens Lee, who tried his hardest and succeeded in showing us the Masai Mara and its animals in all their glory with some great photoshoot opportunities.
A memorable experience which I can highly recommend to one and all, to join the “Big 5 Safari” for the adventure of a lifetime.
Thank you Lourens for a wonderful photographic adventure.

A great experience
Before our group came to Chobe National Park we were at two parks in South Africa. We saw more or less all the animals we saw in South Africa and then some more. :-) The guides were very competent, the scenery is great, we saw lots of wild animals, including a leopard and a cobra and of course lots of elephants. The scenery is great, the park is a must. Botswana is definetely worth a visit. We stayed close to the park and also heard a lion at night.

Stunning wildebeast migration
During the big migration the Masai Mara turns into a full-blown spectacle: Virtually endless herds of wildebeast make their way to or from the Serengeti. Along with dramatic crossings of the Mara river. Think crocs...
We stayed at Little Governor's Camp. Their 4-star tents are amazing! They left me wondering how 5-star tents would look like... (which we recently tested in Botswana...)

Top Notch Service in Vic Falls
We had Yvonne Jandles help with our trip to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe and she was an absolute pleasure to have as our guide. Yvonne collected us from the airport in Kasane, Botswana and took us through customs and immigration in both Botswana and Zimbabwe which was of great help in navigating their systems. She is incredibly knowledgeable about both countries and had tips about what to see and do and where to go in Vic Falls. She also drove us around and organized a personal tour of the Falls and an evening cruise on the Zambezi River for us. We highly recommend Yvonne for her professionalism and personal touch.

Very nice trip with the professional guide Mr. Captain and the lady chef, unforgettable!
We went to Moremi Game Reserve, it's all good except the too long driving distance, I highly recommend you to fly in. It's a nice trip with the professional guide Mr. Captain and the lady chef as well as Mr. Mg himself who accompanied us all the way, unforgettable scenic trip! Bush baby Calls is trustworthy and I will think about more future cooperations.

My trip
The parks are quiet and the guides excellent. We particularly enjoyed the adventure camp experience and will definitely do this again. It was also the first time we have flown between parks, it made the trip more expensive but with our limited time it made sense and was a great experience. All our connections worked like clockwork and the overnight international flight helps to maximise time on holiday. What was great was that the day travelling between parks was set up to include two game drives so it didn't feel like a transit day and in fact included two of our most exciting sightings of leopard and lions.
We chose the parks from the excellent reviews we had read on the website. The brochure pictures of wild dogs are perhaps misleading as the local guides said their range is so huge you are unlikely to see them and we are realistic enough to know that these are very difficult to see.
