Awesome experience!
My son and I had a wonderful experience with this "comfort plus"- Easy travel & tours safari. Right from the start, Albert, their safari customer-expert communicated promptly with all our questions via email even before we landed in Tanzania. We experienced not only an awesome safari but he made it tailor-made to our budget- needs and our special diet requests too!
All our lodges had excellent views from our balconies...some had wildlife really close like elephants, zebras, monkeys, hydrax and birds. The best lodges which we loved were Ngongoro Serena and the serene Duluti Serena ones, wish we could have spent more time there!
Our driver, Emmilian, was friendly and knowledgeable about the wildlife. We felt safe driving around in the large comfortable vehicle which was assigned to us.
Before we started our safari, we were taken to their office close by for a briefing of our tour and got to meet their friendly staff including the director, Mr. Musaddiq...they all made us feel welcome with a nice woven-gift basket of fruits, nuts & chocolates!
We highly recommend them and would definitely love to return back someday to Tanzania and do this wonderful trip with Easy Tours again!

Absolutely first class - an unforgettable experience
I've just returned from Tanzania having completed the 7 day Machame Route ascent of Kilimanjaro. From the moment of arrival at the airport, the service we experienced was absolutely beyond expectations. Our guide, Gipson met us at the airport and transferred us to our hotel following a comprehensive briefing of what we should expect on the mountain. Gipson's team, "the Dream Team", (motto "yes we can") were a joy - a high energy, permanently smiling group of people absolutely dedicated to making our trip as easy and comfortable as possible. It was very obvious right from our first encounter with them that they were genuinely there to ensure that we got to the top and realised our dream.
The whole experience was incredible - we forged fantastic friendships with our guides, Gipson and Baraka, and shared laughs with the rest of the team. Their energy was contagious, and they were constantly in attendance whether it be at camp, or even coming out to meet us to help carry our bags to camp at the end of a day's walking.
Food was plentiful and of very high quality. Care was also in abundance - daily checks on our oxygen saturation levels confirmed whether we were fit to continue. It was clearly apparent that the mission of the team was to get us to the summit....and they did!
I can't recommend Easy Travel and the Dream Team highly enough. They made a very special experience truly incredible, and I'm grateful to each and every one of them for their hard work, humour, energy and encouragement on our trip. If you plan to climb Kilimanjaro, make sure you do it with these guys....yes they can!!

The Vacation of life time for us Indians!
We undertook a safari tour of 8 days with our two children 10 and 5 years old in the second week of July 16. I had been recommended Easy Travel and Tours Ltd by two of my friends and they had lived up to all the expectations from the start , planning the tour and the execution of it. All our queries were patiently answered and all our doubts cleared promptly by email .
I was a bit apprehensive about carrying my 5 year old for a tour of 8 days that involves long hours of driving through the national parks but our Coolest guide made it so comfortable and entertaining for him. My 5 year old now misses his Tanzanian friend!. My 10 year old also had the experience that he will never forget!
We undertook a tour of Tarangire, Manyara NP and Serengeti (all the way North Upto Mara river) , Ngorongoro Crater and each day was an experience that we cannot forget in our lifetime. We saw all the big five thanks to our smart guide Dotto!.
Dotto showed us how Teamwork , experience, compassion and planning is the key to successfully executing any work and making it appear very Easy. Dotto , a previous Kilimanjaro mountain climber , who knows English and French very well, showed us the side of Africa that we have only seen on TV. He showed us some amazing birds and animals at their best. He is a very experienced guide and loved the way his explanations were so lucid and interesting. He had bytes of information that catered to all the ages from children to us!
Easy travels also arranged our comfort package accommodations in a variety of lodges, Tented accommodations and made every stay a memorable experience. We were enjoying the family time "in the middle of now where in Serengeti " with meticulously planned tented accommodations that were our favorites.
We also got to stay in comfortable lodges in the urban areas, and had no problem with food (considering the finicky boys and husband).
We were constantly in touch with the Easy guys as they ensured we were on our planned schedule with no troubles. We got to meet the friendly office staff too!
Overall a mesmerizing experience and a vacation of a lifetime for us.
I recommend Easy Travels and Tours Ltd if you want a safari trip of your lifetime !

Trip of a lifetime with Easy Travel and Endeni
As we started to plan our trip to Africa we visited a couple travel shows in Boston, talked to several tour providers and brought home reams of material. When we decided on Tanzania and Zanzibar we began the arduous task of selecting the “perfect” provider. We landed on Easy Travel and we couldn’t have made a better choice.
We exchanged many emails with KC and spoke with him on a couple of occasions. KC was very prepared, proficient and responsive to our many questions concerning the itinerary as well as the spectacular accommodations. Our safari consisted of Lake Manyara National Park, the Central and Western Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire National Park then topped off with four glorious days in Zanzibar.
For our tour guide we were blessed with a wonderful gentleman, Endeni. He grew up in Tanzania therefore is very knowledgeable of the culture and everything there is to know. Endeni taught us about the different regions, cultures and customs. Endeni was able to name every bird and every animal that we saw during our safari. He could identify the animal and birds just by their sounds. Endeni has a wonderful sense of humor and we shared many laughs together.
There were four of us on the safari and Endeni became a friend to all of us. When we left for Zanzibar Endeni took the extra time and assisted us with the check in process and made sure we were settled in the airport. He was an excellent tour guide and very attentive to every minor detail leaving nothing to chance. We highly recommend both Easy Travel as a safari provider and Endeni as a guide.
This was absolutely the trip of a lifetime and we were thrilled to spend it with Endeni!

Serengeti - wow wow wow
A little nervous about the whole African experience was soon put to rest with the confident and expertise of Easy Travel. Would certainly recommend to anyone going to Africa. Guides (Ndenni) were so knowledgeable. People ask me the highlight - every day was a different experience. Seeing so many animals at such close quarters was Amazing. Didn't expect to see anywhere near as much as we did.
Accommodation also out of this world. Loved it all.

The best Africa has to offer in comfort, style and safety!
I look at my images of the beautiful animals, colourful birds and amazing scenery each day and am reminded of the brilliant African safari that I went on with the Norman Group in May, supported by Easy Travel &Tours.
I felt so safe, comfortable, well fed and cared for at the various Serena Lodges. Most importantly, I travelled with an excellent guide and spotter called Adriano from Easy Travel. He was a great driver and was able to give us a depth and range of information on all the mammals, birds and habitats. In addition, Adriano was able to inform us on everyday life in Tanzania and the history of his beautiful country. I travelled with a lovely group of people in our land cruiser and Adriano was attentive to all our needs -nothing was too much for him. This safari is the highlight of my life and the lynch pin to the success of this trip was the wonderful service provided by Adriano and all the team from Easy Travel.
Easy Travel also assisted me in planning a holiday in Zanzibar along with flights. Again, all my needs were taken care of with excellent communication and ease of payments. I felt very safe and secure in the hands of Easy Travel and Zamir, my guide in Zanzibar. Zamir was always punctual, informative, friendly and polite.
I highly recommend Easy Travel to anyone who wants to experience Africa at its best and in style!

Tanzania Safari
We have recently returned from a brilliant trip with the Norman Group which had been arranged by Easy Travel and Tours Ltd. We cannot say enough positive things about our whole experience which was enhanced hugely by our very friendly and knowledgeable guide/driver Adriano. Nothing was too much trouble for him, and along with the other guides we all enjoyed a very happy exciting safari in magnificent Tanzania where the game viewing is amazing. In tandem we were thoroughly spoiled in superb accommodation with Serena Hotels and Lodges, in outstanding comfort, and enjoyed wonderful food and hospitality. All in all it was a fabulous experience which we would love to do again one day. Sincere greetings and thanks to Adriano, Emmillion, Gerard and Ndini (I'm not sure I have all their names spelt correctly) - our "Tanzanian Friends". Thank you all.

Wonderful 4th trip with Easy Travel
Erika and I have done four trips with friends to the Serengeti in Tanzania with this company. We have had the same guides each time and had exceptional experiences. The guides are kind, considerate and very good at their jobs. One feels very safe with them on the roads back to Arusha and in the bush.
The Serena Hotels where we have stayed have been very good 3 and a half star hotels with very tasty food which is well presented the hotel staff very keen to please. The hotels are clean and Easy Travel have a very good relationship with the hotels in which you stay.
The organisation of the safaris runs like clock work and the sightings on the trips have been amazing-last trip we had 9 leopard sightings with over 100 lions seen.
We don't do this trip every year but am looking forward to 2018!

Excellent safari from Arusha through the Serengeti, including Ngorongoro Crater
Easy Travel used the Serena group of hotels/glamping for my 11 day safari. The accommodation was of a high standard and the staff were very well trained to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Our guide, Gerald, did an amazing job of spotting and identifying anything that moved (and even if it didn't!), and at whatever distance. The game drives were full on but one always had the option to stay and relax in the resort, some even had swimming pools. The safari met all my expectations and the African Savannah with all the wildlife one could wish to see, was exceptional.

One of the best experiences of my ife !!!
From the moment I contacted Easy Travel I got the best attention. My agent, Beatus, answered all my questions and sent me different options for my safari (I was traveling alone). At the end, I chose the 7-day camping safari (Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorngoro). And that was one of the best experiences of my life !!! At my arrival at Kiliminajaro Airport, Jackson (my guide and now friend), was waiting for me and from that moment on, he gave much more than his best to ensure that I got the most fantastic trip (you would not believe the wonderful pics I could get, thanks to him). I have to praise also the excelent food provided by my cook, Yassini, really great !!! I could not recommend and thank enough to Easy Travel and the Beatus - Jackson - Yassini team. My best to you, guys !!!
