Attentive communication to plan tour and a great safari guide made this trip wonderful.
My girlfriend and I were looking for a safari that would include the major parks: Serengeti, Ngorongoro (going down into the Crater, not just the rim, is a MUST!), Lake Manyara, and Tarangire. Amos with Migration worked with us extensively to refine the itinerary and answer all of the questions we had. He was very responsive by email which helped put our minds at ease since we were about to pay a decent amount of money to people on another continent. Our guide, Erasto Ninah (he goes by just "Ninah") was fantastic and I highly recommend him if you're looking for someone to give you a great safari experience. During our tour we saw around 100 elephants (including two fighting/mating), 3 cheetahs, around 20 lions (again, go to Ngorongoro!), 3 black rhinos, dozens of water buffalo, around 100 hippos and countless other animals. We saw a pair of lions hunting a pack of wildebeest and zebra. And Ninah's experience was invaluable throughout. He has a degree in wildlife management and 18 years safari experience and he was an encyclopedia of knowledge about the habits and behavior of each animal we saw. On a couple of occasions there were a group of land cruisers parked as close as they could to a lion (on one occasion) and a cheetah (on the other). Ninah said he was going to park away from that group, because the animal was likely to come to the spot he picked out. Because of that, we saw both animals walk RIGHT in front of our car and got some amazing pictures from it. On one day, the land cruiser started rattling badly on the right front tire. He dropped us off at an information center and came back an hour later. We asked what had been the problem and he said "the axle broke, but I fixed it". He's tour guide, expert driver (those roads are rough!), mechanic, and whatever else the situation calls for. It gave us a lot of piece of mind to have someone that could handle whatever came up. We really enjoyed chatting with him too and hearing his insights on the parks, the animals, conservation, Tanzanian culture, and everything else. He made this a trip to remember.

Overall nice safari, but only average service
Communication was poor (e.g. it was not communicated that we were only supposed to bring medium backpacks with us, because the bigger once we traveled with would not fit in the jeep, it was difficult to receive Information from staff regarding lunch, dinner or travel time ….), the provider organized meals badly which sometimes resulted in 10 hours between meals or breakfast 7 Hours after standing up, also the tour guide did not share much Information about flora and fauna with us. Anyway, the Safari was an unforgettable experience. Based on what we have seen it was awesome!

Excellent service, timely attention to detail, sincere and authentic care for our satisfaction
Very well-attended to, prior, during and after our time with them. We have nothing but good things to say about them. The only thing we might say is that the shopping site we were brought to Sunday morning to purchase national souvenirs was over-priced compared to similar items/prices we saw elsewhere (e.g., airport).

Bogdan was the backbone of our trip! Incredibly knowledgable, fun and a true delight!
The tour through Swaziland to Durban was a bore. Otherwise, the package was well worth every cent spent. Memories of a lifetime!

Hakuna Matata! Savannah Explorers will take care of you during your Safari! <3
It was our first time in Tanzania and after an internet search we discovered Savannah Explorers and we chose them for our 3- days Safari in Tanzania.
We visited Serengeti and Ngoro Ngoro with Riccardo, our guide.
Riccardo is a skilled guide, he speaks italians and english and he's great at finding animals: we saw alle the Big FIVE!
Lodges and tented camps were over our expetations, especially we would recommend the Serengeti Tanzania Bush Camps, a tented camp in the middle of Serengeti where you can admire a suggestive landscape.
It was a terrific experience and we really loved it!

Worry-free travel experience from beginning to end!
The trip was excellent! We didn't have to worry about a thing once we arrived in Nairobi. The only problems arose after eTrip Africa had delivered us to our final hotel, and the problems were with the hotel! eTrip Africa provided us with a congenial, knowledgeable, safe driver who was endlessly patient and accommodating. The member of our party who chose eTrip Africa as the tour organizer let eTrip Africa choose our accommodations, and although the second place was not exactly to our aesthetic taste, they were all actually very nice places to stay, very comfortable, with great staff, excellent food, and stunning settings.
As far as the "safari" parts of our trip, well we sure lucked out, seeing many animals that are exotic to North Americans. The two camps that eTrip Africa arranged for us had excellent sites for viewing African savanna wildlife, and we saw soooo many! However, one couldn't blame eTrip Africa if we hadn't have seen so many. We ran across another tour group that had gone four days in the Maasai Mara Reserve without seeing a wildebeest! Wildlife is wild, and they move around. A lot.
The person who arranged our trip had used eTrip Africa for a previous safari, and chose them again for this trip because it had worked out so well. He is planning to go to Kenya again, and is planning to use eTrip Africa again for the tour.
