Professional Service at an Amazing Price!
When I first decided that I wanted to book a gorilla trekking tour in Uganda, I emailed several tour operators to get a sense of itinerary and price. eTrip Africa was quick to reply and after sorting through several competitors, it became clear that eTrip Africa had the best price for what I was looking for in my trip. After I decided to go with eTrip, I asked approximately 567,890 questions to a very patient Ben Jennings. He answered all quickly and clearly, allowing me to make my travel arrangements accordingly. Half way through the emails, I had to make a change in my itinerary and Ben complied without hesitation, acting swiftly to ensure that permits were still available for my new dates. Aurelie Sivadier was also a great help in the process. After confirmation and payment, my itinerary was sent to me. Everything was clearly laid out and it was great to see the breakdown of costs provided by eTrip to know exactly how the costs were calculated. Having come back from my trip just recently, I am happy to report that everything went well, without a hitch! The accommodations recommended were great and the whole experience was absolutely amazing. I will surely refer friends to eTrip and should the opportunity arise to gorilla trek again, I will certainly use this company again. Thanks for everything!

A more adventurous perspective!
After a number of game drives in Zimbabwe and Botswana, the Tamarind canoe trip with Natureways gave us a new and adventurous perspective on wildlife viewing. Also a healthy respect for hippo's! Though there were a few adrenalin fuelled moments, our guides Zera and Kenneth were thoroughly safe, professional and fun. Kenneth was a pretty good cook too. Their knowledge of the animals and birds we saw was amazing.
Right from the pick up at the airport to our drop off at Mana Pools, Natureways more than delivered on our expectations in every respect. Hornbill Lodge in Kariba was a great place to stay pre-tour as well. Thanks!

What I like about Bigfoot is that what you ask for is what you get for your booking and therefore expectations are always met. The trip is always exciting as right from the trasport in comfortable and classy vans to hotel bookings, you are guaranteed value for money always

As a Oma with two 15 year old granddaughters Lucas could not have planned our 10 days better.Bravo!
I had travelled with Lucas 3 years ago in a larger group and when he accepted our request to have him guide us 3 he planned a perfect trip to suit grandma(Bibi from now on)and 2 15 year old cousins. A miracle as all of us had a lot of fun and we appreciated his knowledge and the perfect various accommodations and itineraries for each day. Watching a migration from start to finish and all in between was an experience none of us wanted to miss and we did see it on our last day!! Tanzania and the Serengetti were a perfect way to see all of the wishlist to see except the Rhino who was hiding from the poachers that are driving the Rhino into extinction for their horns. Thanks,Lucas, for all your planning and knowledge that you passed on to us.

Wonderful time !!!
Me and my family (my husband, my son and his girlfriend) spent 15 wonderful days in Uganda. I was preparing the trip since January. From de beginning I choose Gorilla Booking because Justus was so kind to answers our questions so immediately that so inspire confidence.
Our driver was Ben, what a charming person !!! He did his best to feel us comfortable and enjoy de time spent. He made everything easy. Good driver and high knowledge of the roads.
The car very comfortable and also the accommodation.
I highly recommend Gorilla Booking. Unforgettable experience.
Thanks a lot.

The perfectly planned 60th birthday adventure.
I can't say enough good things about the trip Rose put together for me. It exceeded my expectations in so many ways.
The camps, the guides, the sites, the food all outstanding.
The ladies of Dunia Camp threw me a birthday party that brought me to tears. Singing and dancing, drums and grass skirts, even hand made cards and speeches.
It was very special and I can't wait to return.
All transfers seamless all accommodations lovely (with the possible exception of no elevator at the Zanzibar Palace).
You made the impossible seem effortless. When I thought I had no hope of replacing my canceled trip they did it all to perfection in less than a month.

Best Africa Safari Trip Ever!!!
Amazing tour company had such great fun on my 6 days trip in Kenya. Peter (owner) is a great guy! incredibly friendly, professional and helpful throughout the whole process from booking my trip until leaving Kenya. Response rate is 100% and always replies me on WhatsApp when I'm in doubt in the middle of the trip. As a female solo traveller I highly recommend this tour. Detailed itinerary is provided which is very helpful. Peter always make sure I'm enjoying the trip at all times n even sent me to the airport at night. Safari drivers are friendly, well knowledge bout the animals and safe drivers as well!
Thank you for making my safari trip the best experience!

great value for money
We had the 8-day safari program in Kenya and Tanzania (Maasai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro). Abu was our guide in Tanzania and he was tremendous, client oriented and extremely knowledgeable about everything. We really got to see all the animals we wanted to see and highly recommend him. Our talented cook Jacob was also great (he accompanied us in Kenya)! The accommodation was much better in Tanzania but no complaints for the ones in Kenya...
There are a few things that could be improved: In the Kenyan part, we would have wished for slightly more proactive communication on our logistics and shortcomings in the timing of game drives as comaprted to the original written program (instead of copy pasting generic programs to client itineraries, they should be realistically altered to each trip), but all in all it was a wonderful experience, and certainly great value for the price.
