One sentence isn't enough to describe how incredible Liz and Ombeni are, they are truly amazing.
We did a 6 day custom safari tour with Easy Travel and it was quite simply, the greatest experience we have ever had!!
Lizabeth was incredible and worked with us through the entire booking process to make sure we were getting exactly what we wanted. We visited Lake Manyara, Ndutu, Serengeti, Ngorogoro, and Tarangire NPs. Liz took the time to keep in contact with us daily to ensure everything was running smoothly and that all our needs were being met. She also took the time to debrief us prior to our departure and welcomed us back personally second we came back. Her commitment to ensuring her customers have the best experience possible is unmatched. It helps that she is an amazing person herself.
Our safari guide's name was Ombeni. It is difficult to put into words how amazing he was but, I'll give it a go. He was caring, kind, knowledgeable, and an absolute joy to be around. There wasn't a single question he was not able to answer about the animals or the national park. Having taken university courses on wildlife he was the perfect person to lead us through the safari. Beyond this, he became part of our family almost immediately and made the safari experience unforgettable--speaking to the type of person that he is. Without thinking twice, we opened up to one another about our families and life goals which, is not necessarily normal for me to do with someone I have only known for a 48 hours. It was entirely our pleasure to spend time with Ombeni and we will never forget the time that we spent with him. I sit here 8 days later and the family and I still talk about him everyday. The impact he had on us and our trip was unmeasurable.
I without hesitation recommend Easy Travel to be your choice for safari. With Liz and Ombeni on the team, your trip is bound to be a success.
Safari with the best driver Freddy
Amazing trip with our driver Freddy. We saw the best that nature could offer us thanks to Freddy’s sharp eye. He never missed anything and was aware of the best spots. Lightness also made us have an amazing time as she organised everything very well!!!!!

Great experience once in a lifetime!
If you want to go on a unique adventure, an intense and exciting experience - a safari in Tanzania - then Easy Travel is the one you need.
From the first moment of planning the trip, booking the hotels to the smallest details.
During the trip we felt like VIP. The second we got out from the airport we were welcome by our guide Adrian, with a big smile and an intention of giving us the best experience we could possibly get.
Safari with Adrian is like driving with the Chief, he is so experience full of knowledge and can find the impossible. If for a moment we thought we will not find the big five, guess again Adrian did his best and made it! He never gives up, has a lot of patience and mostly listen to all requests, if need to stop and wait and finding best picture angles too. Very fast we understood we are in good hands and indeed we believe we couldn't have a better experience - we got the best.
Easy Travel agent, Lightness, met us in person at the beginning of the trip, gave us a long brief, explaining us exactly what will be each day. During the trip, she talked to us checking everything is good, if there was any problem, and also second meeting at the end of the trip to listen and learn from us what can be done differently (glad to say almost nothing).
If you want a clear head during the adventure, if you want to only have a good time with no worries - you can do it easily with Easy Travel!

Best Trip Ever
There are many options for safari guides, but you will not regret choosing Easy Travel. First, we worked with Voice who patiently offered me about 50 different quotes based on my requests for different accommodation options to help us get the best for our budget and provided for us the perfect 9-day Tanzania safari itinerary for our honeymoon. When we arrived, we were lucky to have Mr. Abisai as our safari guide. Mr Abisai was very friendly, flexible, knowledgeable, and was a wonderful person to spend so much time with on our safari. He worked incredibly hard to ensure we saw many animals and was always excited with us when we found something we hadn’t seen yet! He was awake before us to look for spots the animals could be found and was great at spotting hiding lions and leopards and other animals we surely would have missed without him. We never dreamed we would see so many animals, including the big 5! Abisai also was great at getting us into position to take great photographs and we have many amazing photos and videos to show for his efforts. We felt so lucky that he was assigned to be our guide.
We truly had such an incredible trip. We didn’t lift a finger the whole time; we saw so many incredible sights and animals; and our accommodations were comfortable and lovely. Thanks to Voice and Abisai, we have nothing but positive things to say about our trip with Easy Travel! Everything was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. We hope to return someday for another journey with them.

Optimal
Four of us did the northern parks tour over seven days.
The organization, the Lodges and the Guide (Emanuel with good Italian) were excellent and fully up to par

Easy Travel made this the Best Vacation Ever!
We had an INCREDIBLE safari experience and trip to Tanzania all thanks to Freddy, our Easy Travel Safari Guide and Norah with Easy Travel. A friend recommended Easy Travel and our Safari Guide Freddy and we are SUPER glad that he did that. From the beginning, Norah was super helpful and answered ALL of our questions. (We had a lot.). She would check in with us and followed up to make sure we had the correct paperwork and information to make it into the country easily. Norah even checked in with us by phone halfway through our safari, which was very thoughtful and hospitable.
The moment we landed in Tanzania, it was Hakuna Matata. Freddy picked us up from the Airport and brought us to our hotel. We didn’t have to worry about a thing once we arrived in Tanzania. Easy Travel took care of all the driving and logistics for us, which was very helpful. We met daily to discuss wake up time and agenda for the next day. Freddy even taught us basic Swahili vocabulary words to make our trip better. Our Safari experience would not have been the same without Freddy. We would not have seen all the animals we did without Freddy’s safari experience. He knew where to look for animals and was in constant communication with his colleagues to make sure we were able to see hard to find animals.
We saw more animals than we dreamed we would see. We saw the Big 5 within our first two days of the safari. We saw MANY groups of lions and lion cubs, a leopard, two groups of cheetahs (one group had cheetah cubs), a white rhino and a black rhino, many elephants and babies up close, giraffes up close, zebras and wildebeast migrating, hippos and babies, two Nile Crocodiles, pink flamingos, caraca cat (hard to find), hyenas, warthogs, jackals, vultures and so much more. The Safari vehicle (Toyata Land Cruiser) was very comfortable and perfect for view the animals from the pop top roof.
We stayed at the Tortilis camps during our Safarj and I cannot say enough good things about the hospitality we experienced there. Everyone was so kind, friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. We highly recommend staying at all of the Tortilis camps during your safari!
We also did the guided day hike to Mt Kilamanjaro through Kestra with Easy Travel. It was a fun hike. Kestra was great guide and taught us a few things about the rainforest and Mt Kila along the way. He carried our lunches and rain ponchos and completed all the paperwork for us. Would recommend Kestra as a Day Hike Guide!
Thank you SO much for the trip of a lifetime. We will be recommending Easy Travel and Freddy, Norah and Kestra to all of our friends and family!

Tanzania with Easy Travel is a must!
Short review: These are wonderful people who do an amazing job and there’s no way anyone else is better at what they do.
Long Review: I’ve been fortunate enough to do a lot of things. Shark diving, see the Roman Colosseum, see Machu Picchu, but none of that compares to how amazing this trip was. It was a trip of a lifetime that started with amazing communication with Norah. No matter how many questions we asked and changes we made, she was accommodating the entire time. She also followed up several times to see how we were doing and made sure it was a spectacular time.
For the safari itself, Freddy was our safari guide, and he was the best. He was incredibly nice, helped us learn some Swahili, answered 100’s of questions and made sure we felt like special. Freddy’s a humble guy who sacrifices a lot to make sure his guests leave loving his country. There’s no way we would have seen the big 5 without him. His knowledge of the parks coupled with his driving skills and working the radio, resulted in us getting up close to a lot of things we didn’t expect to see.
We saw so much stuff:
multiple monkeys (blue and velvet) and baboons
Bush buck
elephants everyday
Heards of buffalo
wart hogs
Giraffe everyday
Zebra and impala everyday
Leopard
Multiple Lions and cubs
Hyena
Hippo
Migrating wildebeest
ostrich
leopard
Lots of unique birds
Jackles
Topi
Turtle
6 cheetah’s
Caracal cat - Special cat hard to find
Serval cat
Pink flamingos
Black Rhino
And so much more
The safari vehicle has Wi-Fi which was great for sharing pictures and staying in touch. It didn’t work all the time because the parks are fairly isolated but it was frequently in use and nice to have.
On our last day, we hiked to the Mandara Hut on Mt. Kilimanjaro. Our guide was Kester, who did a great job. He set the expectations the night before and carried our lunches. He also gave us some info along the hike. The hike itself was pretty and we saw some monkeys.
Overall, I’d highly recommend going to Tanzania if you want an amazing experience and you should book it through Easy Travel Tanzania. You should also ask for Freddy to be your guide. You won’t be disappointed.

Better experience than we ever could imagined
For many years we have longed for a Safari journey. After we have been recommended to choose Easy Travel by friends, this tour operator fulfilled our dreams from all aspects. Everything worked perfect. We have seen a lot of animals and got much closer to them than we ever have dreamed off.
Our amazing and skilled safari driver & guide, Ombeni, taught us a lot about the animals and answered all our questions. He also told us about the Tanzanian society and now we know so much more about Tanzania than before.
Norah at the office gave us a great customer experience. From start to end we felt so well taken care of, and we definitively want to recommend Easy Travel as a fantastic tour operator.

Caring and exceptional
Easy tours and travels demonstrated what Tanzania is, an amazing host with incredible people. This safari was a dream of my father for the past 56 years and i am sure no one could have done it any better than Easy tours. They opened my eyes about Tanzania and the Tanzanian hospitality. I am incredibly thankful for making this THE trip of my life and what every other trip will be measured against.
This was made possible by 2 people Nora and Gilbert (Mariki). Patience and care with a smile, we felt safe cared for and accommodated more than we could ever imagine. Gilbert what a guide, an incredible smile and bent on ensuring we get the best out of our safari. I will never forget the moment he spotted the elusive black rhinoceros (only possible by his trained eye) and expertly maneuvered the cruiser to catch up to it, the result a story of a lifetime! The majestic black rhino crossing in front of us.
You cannot go wrong with Easy tours and travel, especially if you are in the hands of Nora and Gilbert. We are forever thankful!
