Volkhard B2024-04-09My experiences with equatortoarcticsafaris have been consistently positive. Kornelia gave us an unforgettable holiday My review is a little longer, but an "everything is great" certainly helps the travel company in the rankings, but the reader is just as smart as before. I booked directly in Africa-Arusha with equatortoarcticsafaris. My contact was Kornelia. Kornelia put together an individual travel route for me and my grandson that met my wishes to see, observe and photograph as many animals and birds as possible. Kornelia also looked for beautiful accommodations in the middle of nature so that I had the opportunity to observe animals in the lodge or in the camps. Kornelia is not only an experienced travel expert, but is also enthusiastic about safari tours and accompanied us to Arusha National Park on the first day and showed us the beauty of the park and the animals in the park. I always had something to talk about with Isi, our guide and driver, an absolute bird expert. Isi is also a football fan and so my grandson always had something to talk about with Isi. On the 5th day of our safari, our off-road vehicle had a transmission problem. Isi drove us to the accommodation in a rental car, then back to the car, the mechanics came from Arusha (7 hours drive) and our off-road vehicle was repaired during the night GREAT RESPECT for the action. The next morning we were able to continue our trip as planned. Overall we had a wonderful trip, we saw and photographed many birds and animals. We had warm encounters and experiences with the local people. My grandson played football with them, we ate and drank together, it was just lovely. I can recommend a safari trip with equatortoarcticsafaris to everyone, contact Kornelia and let her put together a trip tailored to your wishes and needs.
Travel-Jelly5812024-03-03Besser geht's nicht Was für eine wunderbare Erfahrung. Was für eine professionelle Firma. Was für ein begeisternder, kluger, zugewandter und fröhlicher Guide. Christopher (spricht Deutsch) begleitete uns 7 Tage lange und hat uns seine Heimat wirklich nahe gebracht. Mit so vielen Einblicken in die Flora, Fauna und Kultur von Tansania. Unvergesslich! Und so eindeutig, dass wir als Europäer viel von Afrika lernen können, was Gastfreundschaft, Humor, Gelassenheit und Hilfsbereitschaft angeht. Alles, auch die anschließenden Tage auf Sansibar, waren perfekt organisiert. Die Safari selbst war eine no-waste Tour, mit wunderbaren Stationen in den Zeltcamps, großartigem Essen und viel Insider-Erfahrungen, vor allem dank Christopher. Besser geht es nicht. **** What a wonderful experience. What a professional company. What an enthusiastic, smart, approachable and cheerful guide. Christopher (speaks German) accompanied us for 7 days and really brought us close to his homeland. With so many insights into the flora, fauna and culture of Tanzania. Unforgettable! And so clear that we as Europeans can learn a lot from Africa in terms of hospitality, humor, serenity and helpfulness. Everything, including the following days in Zanzibar, was perfectly organized. The safari itself was a no-waste tour, with wonderful stops in the tented camps, great food and lots of insider experiences, especially thanks to Christopher. It doesn't get any better than this.
Max2024-01-05Unforgettable safari with Chris We were on the road with Chris for 6 days just before Christmas and couldn't have imagined a better guide for the safari. Our travel stops: Tarangire National Park, North and Central Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara National Park. From the pick-up at Kilimanjaro Airport to the departure at Arusha Airport, the entire trip was perfectly organized and left nothing to be desired. Chris always says "Today just beautiful nature again, no animals ;-)", but he delivered every day and surprised us with ever more spectacular animal sightings. Be it the large herds, tree lions or elephant calves playing in the mud. We even saw all of the Big 5 in the Ngorongoro Crater in one day. We can also particularly recommend the Tanzania Bush Camps in the Serengeti. Here you are really completely in the middle of the action and in the middle of nature. Many, many thanks to Chris and the entire Equator to Arctic team for this unforgettable experience! Sarah, Marek, Nils, Stephan, Annabel, Max
Annette T2023-10-03Dream safari in Tanzania Four of us went on safari for 12 days: 2 days in Arusha National Park, 3 days in Tarangire, 1 day in Manyara, 4 days in Serengeti, 1 day in Ngorongoro and finally 1 day in Karuto Elephant Cave. The whole trip was very well organised from the first to the last moment and it was wonderful to spend so much time in the magnificent nature. Our driver Israel was always there and looked after us every day. He has a lot of experience and we saw an incredible number of animals - including the Big Five, of course ;) The accommodation was also very well chosen, especially the camps, which offered every comfort in a unique environment. The staff was lovely every time. We can recommend Equator to Arctic without reservation. Thanks again to Chris, Israel and the whole team!
Gemma Z2023-06-23Todo inmejorable, recomendable 100% 3 personas, Ruta Machame, con nuestros guías Richard y Adam. Ellos y todo su equipo consiguieron que fuera una experiencia inolvidable y maravillosa, y nos llevaron a la cumbre. La comida de 10, la amabilidad y la calidad humana de todas las personas que nos acompañaron, además de su fortaleza, ha sido toda una lección de vida. Totalmente recomendable.
Peter Heinz2023-03-29Toller Safari-Anbieter Tolle Safari (bereits Oktober 2020), mit Christopher als Guide und Benjamin als Koch.

Ein ganz großes Dankeschön geht an unseren Guide Chris von "Equator To Arctic" vor Ort. Er hat uns soviel gezeigt und zu jeder Zeit mit seinem Fachwissen die richtigen Antworten gegeben. Wir haben sogar die "Big Five" mehrmals gesehen!!! Wir haben uns zu jeder Zeit rundum wohl und sicher gefühlt und jede Sekunde genossen!!! Chris und "Equator To Arctic" ist uneingeschränkt weiter zu empfehlen. Hakuna Matata...es war ein Traum!!!

Dirk02072022-10-16Unvergessliche Tage auf Safari und dann Erholung pur in Sansibar Es war von Anfang an ein sehr guter Kontakt und eine sehr gute Kommunikation zur Gestaltung unserer Privatreise mit 4 Personen. Wir, dass sind ein Paar 57/55, die Schwester 55 und die Mutter, noch 83 Jahre alt. Es sollte und wurde ein unvergessliches Erlebnis für die ganze Familie und speziell für die Mutter. Also keine Angst, es ist alles super organisiert und auch für ältere Menschen sehr gut machbar. Christopher hat eine Safari in den nördlichen NP organisiert. Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti und Ngorongoro. Die Auswahl der Unterkünfte war sehr schön, sehr gepflegt und sauber, gutes Essen und freundliches Personal. Zeltcamps sind ob der besonderen Atmosphäre besonders zu empfehlen. Chris ist ein sicherer Fahrer, allzeit freundlicher und lachender Mann, dem das Wohl der Gäste am Herzen liegt. Er spricht gut Deutsch und kennt sich mit Flora und Fauna super aus. Der Flug nach Sansibar, der Transfer und die Auswahl der traumhaften Unterkunft lagen auch in der Hand der Agentur. Es verlief alles völlig geräuschlos und es war ein unvergessliches Erlebnis. Wir kennen Chris schon sehr lange und wir sind begeistert, wie sich in sein eigenes Business entwickelt hat. Er ist ein wirklicher Freund geworden und wir danken für tiefe Einblicke in die tansanische Welt. Es ist besonders hervorzuheben, dass er als Agentur social tourism unterstützt und lokale Projekte in der Nähe auswählt, in denen Gäste auch Unterstützung zukommen lassen können. Bildung ist für die Zukunft des Landes wichtig und mit vielen mitgebrachten Materialien läßt sich viel Freude machen. Insgesamt waren wir 14 Tage unterwegs und werden definitiv wieder kommen. Dann der Süden mit Selous und Lake Tanganijka.
