excellent organisation and guide
We wanted to go on a safari before we climbed Kilimanjaro. We looked at a a custom tour for us. They were price competitive and came up with some good suggestions.
The guide was excellent not only was he very knowledgeable on the game park but his knowledge of birds and flora was also exemplary.

Safari with Family
This safari exceeded my expectations from the first minute we touched down at the airport and were met by our Easy Travel car. Adrian was knowledgeable about the wildlife and where we were going, and always seemed to find the animal that eluded others. I took 2,000 photos and could have taken 2,000 more! So beautiful!

Fantastic Safari in Tanzania with Easy Travel
We have been in Tanzania for three weeks together with Easy Travel and had an amazing time. It was our first trip to Africa and we can certainly confirm the good feedback and reviews about the company.
During the first week we climbed Kilimanjaro, followed by 6 days Safari including Arusha NP, Tarangire NP, three days in Serengeti, Ngorongoro and one week relaxing in Sansibar at the end. For us the most amazing part of the Safari was Serengeti with all of its wildlife and its landscape. Thanks also to Endend our very experienced driver with whom we spotted so many animals. Overall the organization of Easy Travel was really great! Many thanks for making our holiday unforgettable.

Once-in-a-lifetime experience thanks to Claus, Norah and Easy Travel
We had a wonderful 8 day Safari through the Northern Circuit (Tanzania). Based on many reviews here on Tripadvisor we ended up choosing EasyTravel and never regretted our decision. The whole process, starting with first contact, the planning process, the safari itself, was perfectly executed.
Our consultant Norah advised us from our very first e-mail, helped us set-up tour itinerary and planned the whole trip from beginning to end.
We were very lucky to have Claus as our safari guide. Fantastic fun guy, Claus really knows all the national parks, has incredible wealth of experience and you sometimes get the feel he knows the animals by name ;). Oh, and he makes sure, you get the best photo opportunities and positions to see your favorite animals :). He is a very good and safe driver as well.
We had a fantastic time, thank you Norah, thank you Claus for making this an unforgettable experience!

5 Day Trip - Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater
I contacted Easy Travel & Tours based on their reviews on Trip Advisor and received timely and great service from Theo. He gave us some great recommendations and made sure that all our requests and needs were met. There is honestly nothing bad I could say about this company. They were very invested in our trip and made sure that we had an experience of a lifetime. Our driver Ombeni was the best and became a great friend. He made sure that we experienced everything that the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater had to offer. I highly recommend using Easy Travel & Tours and make sure to request Ombeni as your driver.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.
