More than a five star experience
In july 2017 we went on a six day safari with Easy Travel. We visited the Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara National Park and Tarangire National Park. We had the best driverguide; Thomas. He is enthusiastic, incredibly knowledgeable, very attentive to our needs and wishes, and he's very respectful of the nature and the animals we encountered. He's one of the main reasons our safari was such a big success and he made our safari experience perfect! Besides that he has a great sense of humor and we enjoyed his company.
Easy Travel (Norah) made sure it was a very smooth planning process and good communication before, during and after the safari including pre- and post briefings at the office. They made sure we got exactly what we wanted - in fact we got much more than that.

An amazing experience
My friend and I did the private tour 6 day safari which included Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Easy Travel were fantastic in every way. Fabulous driver and vehicle, the accommodation far exceeded our expectations, the company were easy to deal with and very accommodating and the scenery was stunning. In particular we loved Tarangire and Serengeti National Parks. We are so glad we chose Easy Travel and would highly recommend them to others planning a safari in Tanzania.

10 star! Unsurpassed expeeience
I have been to over 60 countries, using private tour operators in many of them- and Easy Travel is by far my top experience along with Travel Buddies in Mongolia. Without hesitation i would recommend them for any trip to Tanzania ! Traveling alone with 2 teenage boys, they arranged a private tour for us- after literally many hundreds of emails! I was very particular about what i wanted to see and do- and they made sure to maximize my chances of seeing the wilderbeast migration- and we did and it was fantastic! They were perfect in strategizing our itinerary to leave multiple chances to see the migration depending on the unpredictable travel patterns of the wilderbeasts. All The recommendations of Emmanuel and Godfrey were perfect! The Toyota Land Rover was spacious, immaculate clean and comfortable during long drives (they had special padded seat coverings). Even had a fridge for cold drinks and food- and electric outlets! Emmanuel and Godfrey were fantastic in promptly (almost instantaneously) to all my questions and itinerary requests. Patient as saints ! Even on-site last minute requests in itinerary change were accommodated like magic. Their prices were fair and on target with the competitors. The attention to detail, striving (and accomplishing) to provide the best tailored experience and commitment to the guest are unsurpassed! Emmanuel even packed my suitcase for me- bubble wrapping all the breakables which arrived in perfect condition!!!!! Emmanuel went above and beyond to ensure our trip was memorable. Even their lawyer, John Massangwa, was fantastic- above and beyond committed to the well being, safety and great experience of all the guests. Our driver/guide was unbelievable- Endeni- patient beyond belief, knowledgeable (beyond belief), an expert eye for sighting wildlife and energy to keep up w my teenagers' 5 AM departs for game drives (!!!!) , driving til sunset- for 12 days straight! He was hands down the top driver / guide i've had- including trips to Kenya, S Africa and Namibia. Congratulations to the entire Easy Travel team- and particularly to the owner Musaddiq , who clearly is the Captain of his ship and leads by example. Dont even consider another Tour Operator for your Tanzania trip- i cant wait to return with Easy Travel.

Wonderful experience - perfect services
We booked a safari vacation for 6/7 days/nights with EasyTravel in Tanzania, after two weeks of chatting by mail with Norah, our customer service consultant. Norah provided excellent information about our trip and organized us a perfect Comfort Plus tour: just two of us in a Toyota Land Cruiser and only 4 stars hotel accommodation. We had e perfect time, because we had a great guide/driver: Elias. If guides would have stars, Elias would get 5 stars! He knew everything about Savanna, about animals and their migration, about Masai tribes, about weather, climate... names, stories, education of tribes... my words are not enough for describing the hole lesson Elias gave it to us. Thank you Elias, Norah and Easy Travel. See you soon!
P.S. We've seen more than 50 lions (males, females, cubs... roaring, sleeping, feeding, attacking gazelles, watching the bulls heard), cheetahs attacking gazelles, leopards, serval cat, coyotes, hyenas, antelopes, gazelles, a lot of bulls, wild-beasts, zebras, hipos, elephants (hundreds), giraffes, warthogs, dromedary, dikidiki, turtles, ostriches, baboons, crocodiles, velvet monkeys... and thousands of birds...

All perfect
Beautiful 4-day safari: Lake Manyara, Ngorogoro and Serengeti; impeccable organization from reception to Arusha airport; seeing an unimaginable number of animals especially at the Serengeti and thanks to the good and helpful Richard that one day has led 12 hours safari uninterrupted from dawn to dusk. Maybe you can repeat it as soon as possible.

awesome safari
I have booked the 6 day safari trip to Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. From the beginning I felt very comfortable with choosing this company. Amina from Sales Office help me out with Precision Air even though I booked the tickets myself and couldn't reach the airline afterwards. Our guide Sadiki was a friendly, good-humoured, very professional and safe driver. We always had enough time taking pictures and he answered our questions very satisfying. He tried his very best to find all of the Big 5 but unfortunately we couldn't find a rhino. At the end of the tour he drove me back to Kilimanjaro airport on time and Amina called to ask for feedback of the tour. Thank you very much for everything and I will definitively book again with Easy Travel when travelling back to Tanzania.

Life changing memories that will stay with you forever.
When you starts to plan thing too far in advance, sometimes the actual event falls short of your expectations and becomes a disappointment. I am so happy to report this was not the case with the safari we just completed with Easy Travel (ET) as it far exceeded all of our expectations. Our planning began over 2 years ago. ET was there every step of the way, promptly responding to inquiries and helping with our planning. I researched safari companies thoroughly. ET was one of the least expensive options we found and after reading TA reviews we chose them. There was nothing cheap about the quality of the service, food or accomodations; all were top shelf if not down right luxurious. Our guide Ahmed was a pleasure to be with for the week. He had a keen eye and sharp wit and continuously worked to keep us informed and happy. A safari is a big investment in time and money. You can't do better than Easy Travel Tanzania. We are so happy we chose them.

perfect honeymoon
an amazing safari tour with Easy travel. We did a 3 nights, 4 day safari with easy travel as part of our honeymoon and it was so special. Easy travel made the whole process so smooth and every detail was thought of. Gladys responded to all my questions promptly and was very accommodating. They ensured all the hotels and staff knew it was h=our honeymoon and they all went out of their way to make things special for us. Our tour guide thomas was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and knew where to go to see all the animals. We saw so many lions, cheetahs, leopards and so much more, Camping in the Serengeti was an unforgettable experience. We have an absolutely wonderful time and would like to thank all the staff at Easy travel for helping to make our honeymoon so special!

9 day safari experience beyond our highest expectations, it was so amazing!
In the middle of August, we experienced the most unbelievable and exciting 9 day safari in Tanzania which was way beyond our expectations. How do you describe perfect? That’s what our safari adventure was thanks to Easy Travel and the best guide ever, Jackson! We’re amazed at all we saw, including a cheetah hunt and kill, two of the elusive black rhinos, one in the Serengetti and one in Ngorongoro Crater, birds of all kinds, lots of every type of species in the deer family (including the smallest, the dik dik) and two crossings of the Mara River in the Great Migration, one of which was the largest observed in two seasons. We enjoyed watching 5 cheetahs and four leopards over the eight days, along with a spotting of two tree climbing lions sleeping in a tree. We also had days that we joked were the “day of the lion” when we spotted forty, the “day of the hippo” when we saw over 50”, “day of the giraffe” when we saw over 60, not to mention innumerable numbers of elephants, baboons, wildebeests, zebras, hyenas and warthogs. We were treated to smaller wildlife in the bush too; jackals, cerval cats, lizards, a tortoise, two types of Mongoose, Hyrax and an African rock python. Wow!
In the spring, our adult daughter, a high school biology teacher, received a monetary award from a special fund at her school to be used for wherever she wanted to travel. After deciding on a trip to Africa, she asked us, her parents, to join her for this experience. After extensive research online, talking with friends who had been to Africa and lots of discussion, it was decided we would book a private tour with Easy Travel, which was ranked #1 on Trip Advisor for the area. From the very first email, we were reassured by the prompt replies and willingness to work with our budget and desires for the safari. Over the next few months, there were speedy responses to questions that arose as we researched and prepared for the trip. The Easy Travel website provided good information and FAQ’s to help us have a successful experience.
Our first day, we were warmly met at Mt. Kilimanjaro Airport by our driver/guide Jackson, who immediately put us at ease and we knew we were in good hands.
He drove us to our first night’s accommodations at the Tulip Tree Hotel in Arusha. There we were joined by Emmanuel from the local ET office. He made us feel welcome to Tanzania and briefed us on what to expect for the next 8 days, from accommodations, game drives, gratuities, safety and answered our questions. We were greatly surprised to also receive a special cake to celebrate our daughter’s award and our 48th anniversary.
This special care and thoughtfulness continued throughout our safari. The lodgings arranged for us at the comfort level were all very good and as advertised. The staff members at each location were friendly and truly accommodating, anticipating any needs. The food was delicious and plentiful, including the box lunches provided every day, and we always felt safe. We were extremely surprised and thrilled to have special singing by staff and a cake at every accommodation. We will never forget how special this made us feel and we will always have those memories.
The 8 days of our safari, from Tarangire to Lake Manyara, the Serengetti: north, central and south, to Ngorongoro Crater and back to Arusha were magical, especially thanks to the instincts, care, sense of humor, genuine love of the Serengetti and a willingness to share information on the history, ecology, geography and wildlife of Jackson, our guide. He had endless patience to stop when we thought we spotted something and check it out, to back up when there was a particular picture one of us wanted, or to go pole, pole (slowly, slowly in Swahili) for me due to some physical limitations. We’re sure he worked extra hours each day to ensure we had the best possible experience, and at times even he seemed amazed by what we were seeing or experiencing. From the very first we were drawn into the excitement of the hunt and Jackson’s keen eyesight and experience made each day an awesome appreciation of the beauty and life in this vast area of Tanzania (we learned during the safari that others call him the “Bush Doctor” because he is so in tune with life in the bush).
After our debriefing with Emmanuel at the Easy Travel office in Arusha, it was with great sadness that we said goodbye to Africa and Jackson.
