Not being familiar with Eclipse travel before booking, we were a bit apprehensive – but OMG – what a fabulous team and what a fabulous experience! Everything from the initial advice, to the planning, booking and then on-the-ground organisation, this was the best experience ever. We were very, very impressed by the flawless coordination and the quality of service at all levels! Already looking at going back to Eclipse for our next destination!

We have just returned from one month in Chile, Argentina and Uruguay. Lara designed our trip for us and we were very happy with how everything turned out. We were particularly impressed with how all the transfers and travel guides worked perfectly when we realised all the levels of service that they had gone through from our booking in Australia. The Eco camp in Patagonia was a highlight and my only suggestion would be book 3 whole days there rather than 2 to give more options with the excursions. We were also very grateful our airline bookings were organised by Eclipse when we realised there was a strike by Latam in some places. Lara re booked our flights and let us know very promptly while some of our travel companions were off loaded to another country! I’d recommend Eclipse and will definitely use their services again.

We had a wonderful time in Africa. All of the accommodation including the guides was fabulous, the food great and the transfers were perfect. It is the best experience we have had. Our fellow tourists were interesting, most of them from Europe. Here are some of the highlights: The Zeitz MOCCA museum in Cape Town was fantastic, both the building and the contemporary art. So much passion! I would highly recommend a visit there. Thornybush was great and I particularly appreciated the scented bath with petals plus bottle of champagne on the first night after our return from the first expedition – our fellow travellers were envious. The Three Tree Hill Lodge in the Drakensburg Mountains was excellent. We had a very interesting morning listening to a historian talking about the history of South Africa, followed by a visit to the site of a Boer War battle. A great story teller, he made the personalities of those involved come alive – highly recommended. Botswana was spectacular in every way – fantastic scenery and wildlife.

Just back from a wonderful 5 week trip to Sth America put together by Tiffany at Eclipse Travel. We had a wonderful week at the Ecocamp in Patagonia, marvelled at the sight of the Perito Moreno glacier, had a fantastic 8 day cruise in the Galapagos Islands and loved the colours and light of the Atacama Desert. Tiffany was great to work with and very knowledgeable. The local operators met us at every transfer and were terrific. Stress free travel – thank you Eclipse. We wil be recommending Eclipse Travel to all our friends.
