Fantastic Kilimanjaro Climb with Easy Travel. Will use them again.
view killi
I don’t write reviews very often but I absolutely wanted one write one for Easy Travel. I used Easy Travel for a Mount Kilimanjaro climb for me and my daughter as well as some safaris. A friend who had previously used them referred them to me. This review is about the Kilimanjaro climb on the Machame route. Overall, they were fantastic and I’ll use them again. I want to particularly call out our head guide, Musa. He was amazing. He was extremely helpful and spoke excellent English. He along with the 2nd guide Charles made sure that everything went smoothly and helped us when we had issues with the altitude. I got sick from the altitude on the 2nd day before I was acclimated and they carried my pack to help out. We had a group of 4 people and they helped each of us in turn when we had issues. We all summited and I don’t think this would have happened without Musa and Charles.
The crew of porters, cook, waiter, camp manager were excellent. We had large tents for two people each. Each morning there was hot wash water and tea brought to the tents. Overall the food was good on the mountain. The porters seemed happy in camp. They were often singing.
On the summit night, two porters hiked with us along with the two guides. They would break out into chants or songs to keep our energy up. We actually had an impromptu singing and dance session on the top of the mountain with them. Finally, on the way down from the summit, about a half hour out of camp, a number of the crew came up the trail to meet us, they brought hot tea and took our day packs and very cheerfully walked us back to camp.
The Easy Travel package included pre and post climb accommodations at Planet Lodge in Arusha. Nice property. They also coordinated all the airport transfers. They lived up to their name and kept things easy.
The bottom line is that I am very happy I used Easy Travel. I will use them again the next time I come to Tanzania.

Perfectly organised safari tour - highly recommended!
We just finished our safari trip with Easy Travel and our guide Habad to Ndutu and Serengeti Nationalpark (3 nights in total) and we really enjoyed the trip! We felt in very good hands from the planning to the trip itself - we chose Easy Travel because of Hellen‘s support and extensive responses to all our questions. She did her best accommodating all our needs. During the trip she even called to check in with us if everything was alright.
Habad was the perfect guide - he was very friendly, you could have nice conversations with him (also on Tanzania in general), but he also gave us space for our privacy. He has extensive experience as a guide and was ready to answer all our questions. Due to his good eye for spotting animals, we managed to see all big fives and all animals that we would like to see (even though it was low season in Serengeti). We can definitely recommend going to Ndutu for the great migration which Hellen recommended us to do. The accommodations they’ve chosen for our stay were also great regarding rooms and service. We definitely recommend Easy Travel with all our friends who would like to visit Tanzania.

An unforgettable Safari
We chose easy travel among many travel agencies. As the name suggests, they gave us a trip to easy travel. Our guides Adrain and Agustino cared about whether we had a good time every day. Agustino thoughtfully prepared small gifts for us. We boarded the car every day and the guide took us to look for various wild animals. We successfully saw big5 and was impressed by his driving skills. He could drive on any road and felt very safe. It was a comfortable, worry-free, happy and unforgettable trip. travel.

Reliable, affordable and safe
After comparing several hotels, I finally booked a customized trip of four days and three nights with easy travel, which is reliable, affordable and safe. Voice was very friendly, responded promptly, and arranged the itinerary very well; our guide Adrain Agustino was very dedicated and took us to see the big five, which was very good.

Incredible Kilimanjaro Trek!
We highly recommend Easy Travel for a Kilimanjaro trek especially the Machame route)! Ask for Musa and Charles and you'll have an amazing experience! Musa, Charles, and the rest of the team were extremely professional, very knowledgeable, approachable, friendly, and encouraging. They are all Dream Makers!
Enough good things cannot be said of Musa and Charles. They were always friendly and answered all sorts of questions. They were also very approachable and calming to talk about health concerns as they made it clear that the client's health is their #1 priority.
All 4 members of our group successfully summitted with lots of help from Musa, Charles, and the summit porters. Their energy and physical support were instrumental in our success.
One of the main reasons we picked Easy Travel is because they are part of KPAP. All of our porters had good, sturdy hiking boots (the same cannot be said of many other companies we saw). So this made us feel like we had made the right decision. The porters would regularly joke around, sing, and dance together so it appeared they were enjoying themselves. We loved seeing this because the porters are a vital part of the team who deserve to be treated with immense gratitude.
Booking with Easy Travel was very straightforward, Julieth sent all the info we needed via email and was prompt in answering our questions. Once we arrived, all the Easy Travel staff were very friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure our trip was exceptional!
Once again, we highly recommend Easy Travel for your Kilimanjaro trek, and make sure you ask for Musa and Charles!!

Safari Guide
Abisai is a wonderful safari guide. His has extensive knowledge of all the animals and their habitats. He goes the extra mile to find wonderful things to see and has information about the environments where the animals live. He is very kind and helpful, he made our trip even better. Would recommend him to everyone.
Amazing trip. 30 lions and counting!
Terrific. Our driver guide, Harry, has been wonderful. Safety first, he is well prepared and seems to be friends with many of the other jeep drivers. He is very knowledgeable and has been a pleasure to spend long days with on game drives and the in-betweens. We are aged 20-75 and he has been thoughtful and attentive to each person. He has taken initiative for those little things which really made it all more enjoyable. Highly recommend. We also found the company, Easy Travel, great to deal with in planning, booking, payment and orientation. We'll prepared and very smooth operations throughout. When there was one miscommunication with a hotel on our meal plan, Easy quickly resolved it in our favor. All A+
first time in Africa and what a great time
It was absolutely fabulous . We had a wonderful driver Harry very pleasant taking great care of us to the point where he thought for our luncheon out to bring tobacco to my grand son. One major point that is essential he Ann excellent safe driver . He knows the territory inside out is never lost even if has to take detours because of flooded routes. He is also very knowledgeable could answer all our questions and would even give information before we ask anything. He’s a very pleasant person for us but we can see by how he interacts with other drivers that his colleagues really appreciate him. The tour is allowing to have a great perspective on Tanzania country and national parks . I think easy travel &tours did a wonderful job in making the best of our 7 days tour. I have liking for lions and we’ve seen up to now more than 30 lions , for me that shows the itinerary was perfect .
bref i would start the whole experience all over again and recommend pour com p;an y and our chauffeur harry with great pleasure.
Do not miss the hot air balloon despite the early rise

Great Family Safari
We are having a great trip! This is our 3rd safari and we are loving it! The itinerary and the accommodations have been great! Harry, our driver, is excellent - very knowledgeable and friendly. So far, we have seen over 30 lions, many kind of antilopes, hippos, giraffes, elephants and many more. The migration is incredible. I highly recommend our driver as he has been great at taking care of us and being prudent in rain conditions. Easy Travel has been easy to deal with - we have been very satisfied.
