Aterra Travel Omdömen 14

Last-minute booking, high expectations — Aterra Travel delivered on both counts. They secured great rooms for our Sri Lanka and Maldives trip despite the short lead time, and the local suppliers they partner with are genuinely top-tier.
The team is highly responsive and easy to work with. The founder brings a level of personalised advice that's rare — well-traveled, opinionated in the best way, and clearly selective about what they recommend. Nothing felt generic.
Highly recommend for anyone who wants a thoughtful, well-connected travel partner for the region.

I booked a South Africa safari + Cape Town winelands trip with Amanda and couldn’t be happier with our amazing vacation.

She was attentive to our tastes and preferences and was super responsive always, helping us arrange additional activities and coming up with amazing local recommendations even while we were on the trip. Highly recommend for a customised, tasteful itinerary tailored to what you enjoy in travelling.

Booked antarctica cruise getaway with Amanda. She’s extremely knowledgeable and can tailor the experience to your needs and wishes ! made the whole experience super smooth, cannot recommend her enough!

Reliable, dedicated, caring. Will definitely book with them again.

I’ve traveled to over 30 countries and Tanzania with Aterra was the best trip I’ve ever taken. Amanda split our two weeks between Singita Grumeti and andBeyond Ngorongoro Crater Lodge, and the sequencing was perfect. Grumeti first for the open plains and big cat sightings, then the crater for something that genuinely felt like another planet.

What set this apart was how little we had to think. Amanda had already spoken to both camps before we arrived. Our guide Herman at Grumeti knew we wanted early morning drives, not midday game viewing. At Ngorongoro, our dietary preferences and room setup were handled before we checked in. When a bush flight was delayed and our Nairobi connection was at risk, she had already called ahead before we even landed.

She has been to these properties herself and it shows. The recommendations were not pulled from a brochure. We are already planning Madagascar with her for next year.

Aterra was the perfect travel planner for our trip to South Africa! It was the best combination of adventure and luxury. We would 100% recommend Aterra to our friends!

Aterra has been such an unlock for us. We love traveling, but would always get so stressed about planning the *perfect* trip ourselves. We found it especially difficult nowadays with all of the different advice and information out there. Aterra took all of this off of our plate, and planned such a beautiful vacation that was truly seamless from start to finish.

Used Aterra to plan for a winter-break trip for my friends and I. I definitely recommend this service - Amanda was very helpful and efficient with the whole planning process. The two weeks in Argentina were great - loved the Iguazu Falls. I definitely plan on using Aterra again for any other group trips.

We’ve had a fantastic experience working with this travel company. From the start, they’ve been responsive, professional, and genuinely cheerful—making the entire planning process enjoyable and stress-free.

They’ve helped us put together an incredible safari and Antarctica expedition, and we couldn’t be more excited. As they say, planning and anticipation are half the fun, and that has definitely been true here.

A special thanks to Amanda, who has been amazing throughout. Despite the time zone difference, she responds quickly and always comes up with creative, thoughtful ideas. She’s given us a variety of great options while ensuring we get the best possible value.

We truly appreciate the care and attention to detail, and we’re very much looking forward to the adventures ahead!

Wow, still can't stop thinking about this trip. Amanda and Aterra Travel have genuinely changed how our family travels. We just got back from South America, Patagonia, Torres del Paine, stays at Awasi and Explora, and it was unforgettable.

Patagonia and any international trip, for that matter, is not easy to plan. There are many moving pieces, and honestly, I wouldn't have known where to start. Amanda understood what we were looking for without us having to over-explain, and every recommendation was right for the family. The whole trip was smooth from planning to execution, and I can tell that Amanda has a lot of knowledge when it comes to traveling. If you're serious about doing a trip like Patagonia or any nice vacation spot, I couldn't recommend Aterra enough.

Amanda did a fantastic job at helping my family and I plan our trip to Patagonia. Could not recommend her highly enough!!

Best travel agency I’ve worked with so far. My family and I wanted to visit Tanzania, but we struggled to find an agency that truly met our needs, until Aterra. From start to finish, the service was outstanding. Communication was smooth, reliable, and attentive, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. Every detail felt genuinely luxurious, from the private jet and lounge access to the private chef and fully personalized itinerary. I never imagined I could get as close to the wildlife as I did on this trip; it was truly unforgettable. Aterra created a one-of-a-kind experience tailored exactly to my interests, and it holds a very special place in my heart. I highly recommend this agency to anyone looking for a travel experience unlike any other.

Going on a premier safari vacation has always been on my bucket list. Finally last October, I proceeded to book a safari trip to Botswana with Aterra, an experienced luxurious travel specialist in custom premier safaris. It was an amazingly incredible experience. A bespoke journey that is unforgettable and cherished. Botswana is one of Africa's top luxury safari destinations, known for its exclusivity, uniquely diverse and high-quality game viewing. Known as one of the premier destinations for “Big Five” sightings. October was an excellent time for me to visit as it’s the dry season. Saw massive herds of elephants, thousands of zebras, lions (even spotted some black maned species too!), leopards, cheetahs, and the African wild dogs…even some rare beautiful antelopes and the meerkats! I have never felt so immersed in nature…so close to wildlife before. I saw the magical beauty of the Kalahari wildlife reserve with its abundance of desert adapted wildlife. And also the natural paradise of the Okavango delta, a lush oasis in the Kalahari for sightings of crocodiles, and hippos. This is one of the best adventure journeys in my lifetime…the wildlife encounters that will stay with me forever. It was a totally stress free experience. Aterra curated a unique bespoke itinerary for me…the best “reimagined” experience of my lifetime. I would very much like to take another safari trip later in a couple of years. It will be with Aterra again…the best premier safari experts around 👍

Our family trip to Antarctica with Aterra was incredible. It truly felt like stepping into another world. It’s one of those experiences you can’t fully appreciate until you’re there.

Amanda made everything effortless. She helped us choose the right ship, secured a great cabin at a discounted rate, and arranged a few special touches that made the trip feel truly personal. The daily landings were well organized, the guides were outstanding, and we felt well cared for every step of the way.

If Antarctica is on your bucket list, I highly recommend planning it with Aterra. It was one of the most memorable experiences we’ve ever had.
