East Africa Budget Tour Reviews

Based on 390 customer reviews
Kilimanjaro trek
5 - Excellent
  • Rachel Miranda
“The guide Eric and the porters were all incredibly kind and helpful throughout the trek. This ensured I was in the best possible frame of mind and body for summit night. The route itself is scenic and offers gradual acclimatization.”
A Team That Goes Above and Beyond!
5 - Excellent
  • Eric
“This tour provider hits it out of the park on the big wins: safety, logistics, and expertise. Their guides conducted twice daily health checks, measuring blood oxygen to ensure we were acclimating appropriately and they had medication ready to cover any malady. On summit day they carried oxygen as a safety measure that I found necessary after experiencing altitude sickness and the team even provided it to another suffering climber whose guides were not carrying oxygen. Not all guide services have these safety measures! The logistics flow was impressive from the get-go with airport and hotel shuttles. The camp logistics on-mountain was even more so. We’d depart camp after breakfast, they’d have tea and snacks set up along the trail, and we’d arrive at lunch to find the mess tent already set up with lunch ready, just to find it and our sleeping tents set up again at the end of the hike with tea and popcorn waiting and dinner shortly to follow. The consideration that the Porter team put into our comfort was overwhelming. The expertise of the team was unquestionable. The company clearly takes hiring very seriously and recruits knowledgeable guides. Professionals across the board whom we greatly trusted. With the big wins checked off in style, the company goes above and beyond with personal touches that make the trip truly memorable. I think the most memorable for us was the tradition and ceremony that the team brought to the experience - celebratory group singing and dancing especially, even cakes and champagne! Then small things like hot water bottles to keep sleeping bags warm really made us feel well cared for.”
Special safari experience
5 - Excellent
  • Brenda Masc
“"This tour operator helped us plan an awe-inspiring trip to Tanzania. Brian, the owner, was a wonderful partner in working with our complicated schedule. Brian seamlessly interwove our trips and made sure that flights, transfers, drivers and our local travel team in were in sync. The local team at safari camps met us on time with professional drivers and porters. They were eager to ensure that our trip was memorable and that whatever little wrinkles occurred were addressed immediately to our satisfaction. We spent days in Lake Natron and interacted with Maasai People on their daily activities (Don’t miss this!). All the accommodations were excellent with the staff so kind, the food wonderful, and the pace a pleasure. We saw many wildlife and mix our self in culture. We are so happy we experienced the three parts (safari, Kili climb, beach) in that order. I loved these different areas of Tanzania (and there is much more to still see!). Some may say this was a once-in-a-lifetime trip, but it planted the seed to a new love of Africa. I can't wait to plan the next adventure.”
