Amazing experience & perfect 4 day safari in Tanzania
We used Easy Travel for our recent trip to Tanzania for safari in the northern circuit and I could not have asked for a more perfect trip. Our trip consisted of a one day "catch-up" in Arusha, followed by a 4 day safari and then 5 days in Zanzibar. Many months ago when we were planning our trip, Caudence, our Easy Travel rep, was so helpful and very quick to respond to my every email request. I had done independent research on hotels and I knew almost exactly where wanted to stay, and Caudence took that information and customized the most seamless and perfect trip while still helping to keep it within our budget. She was so friendly and even went out of her way to meet us in person at our hotel when we arrived. Our anniversary and my birthday were both occurring during our trip, and Caudence went out of her way to have special surprise treats for us at our hotels on those days, which made it even more memorable and amazing.
Our guide for the safari was Adrian and he was absolutely wonderful. He could not have been more friendly and flexible, ensuring that during our 4 day safari we saw every animal and site that we could whilst not tiring us to complete exhaustion. I highly recommend Adrian as a guide - he is so knowledgeable about the land, people, animals, and culture - and he made for the perfect, unmatchable, first-time safari experience for us.
In Zazibar, our guide from the airport to hotel was Zamir. He was so friendly that upon meeting him we asked him if he would take us on an additional guided tour of Stone Town on our day of departure (which we had not previously planned). He was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide - and we would not have enjoyed our afternoon Stone Town if it weren't for him.
Our whole trip was absolutely hassle and stress free. From the time we landed until the time we departed we did not have to worry about anything. Highly recommend Easy Travel for the most perfect safari experience! We love everyone that we worked with - thank you so much!!!

Easy !
Our Group of 8 of us were coming back to Easy Travel & Tours second time and it was an unanimous decision of our group. Earlier during 2014 we had a week long safari in the Central & Northern Serengeti and witnessed the Wildebeest Migration and the Mara river crossing. Now we were back in 2016 to witness the Wildebeest Migration & also Mass Calving in Serengeti and also in Ndutu. We were lucky this time also to witness the migration and also the Calving. We also saw many successful and failed hunts by Cheetas, Lions & Leopard. Ndutu was the best for wildlife due to open grassland and lot of Cheetas. The Off-roading makes Ndutu more special than Serengeti. All the lodges and the camps were excellent including their own Tortilis camp in the Central Serengeti. Our Guides Edeni and Emmanuel were excellent hosts and they made our trip. They were so easy to go and were lively. Big thanks to Edeni & Emma for this wonderful trip. Every guy in Easy travel is so energetic and they helped us with everything. Nice Welcome and send-off by them. Hats off to team Easy Travel. Special Thanks to Mussdiq and Sayyedah the Captions of Easy travels. Keep growing & going easily ! Asante sana !

Amazing experiences with an awesome company. Asante-sana!
We loved our safari with Easy Travel! Beatrice and her colleagues set up a great itinerary for us, and picked wonderful places to stay in. They also helped us add on an additional cultural activity in Moshi which was great. They went above and beyond – ensuring our dietary restrictions wouldn’t be an issue and even setting up a special cake/song at the tented camp on my girlfriend’s birthday. Our driver/guide was Deo (pronounced Dao), and he was absolutely fantastic. He was a very punctual, safe and experienced driver, and the vehicle was in great shape and always clean. He was so knowledgeable, and able to tell us about every animal and plant we saw, and answered our many questions on everything from culture to customs to local tribes. In the parks you can really see the results of his many years of experience, as we were always one of the first cars to an exciting location, and we saw everything and more that we imagined – cheetahs, a leopard kill, 25+ lions, massive packs of hyenas, a rhino, etc. When we expressed interest in a certain animal that we hadn’t seen yet, he would get on the radio to see if anyone had spotted one and get us there quickly. We’re still in awe of his memorization of seemingly every road in Tanzania, including those in the Serengeti that seemed to look all the same to us. Tip: definitely take him up on the offer to start the games drives very early, we saw so much in these morning hours (even lions mating just yards from our tented camp, lol) and the sunrises were beautiful. Highly recommend both Easy Travel and Deo, and we hope to come back and travel with them again one day!

A fantastic experience from start to finish!
Safari with Easy Travel more than met our expectations. Five stars is not enough!
Our booking was handled by Caudence, who answered all our enquiries very swiftly. She was very helpful and put together a package quite in accordance with our wishes. We were five adults and two children in one safari vehicle with Emmilian as our chauffeur/guide. The car was a Toyota Landcruiser with ample space for seven passengers (all with window seats).
Our safari started and finished at the airport in Arusha. We spent four days on safari and visited four different parks (Tarangiere, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro). We also visited Mto wa Mbu village and a masai family. On the last day, we visited a coffee plantation.
All the parks were fantastic and offered very varied animal life. We saw the big five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo) in addition to cheetah, hippo, thousands of wildebeest and zebra on migration, wildebeest calving, many different species of antelope, giraffe, monkey, dik-dik, hyena, jackal, ostrich, vulture and a range of other birds.
The accommodation was above all expectation, especially Maramboi Tented Camp where the swimming pool had great views of Lake Manyara, and Tortilis Camp in the middle of the Serengeti with animals very close to the tents at night.
Emmilian was an excellent chauffeur and guide who happily took detours to make sure we saw absolutely everything he thought worth seeing. He was professional, very experienced, knowledgeable about animal life and culture and knew the area inside out. He was also very good with the children, who saw every single animal they wished for!
We give Easy Travel, Caudence and Emmilian our warmest recommendations.

Absolutely Fabulous
We did southern part of Serengeti with Easy Travel and Tours for the second time (we had done a safari in the northern part of Serengeti in 2014). We had 2 vehicles for 8 of us and planning and execution was too perfect from the moment we were picked up at the airport to the moment we were dropped back in the airport. Our drivers were Emma ( Emmanuel) & Endeni, who had become a part of our group and their lively attitude was infectious. Regarding wildlife sightings, though we didn't get to see the wildebeast calving, we got to see 4 high speed chases by cheetahs. Camp wise Tortillis camp and Angata Ndutu were real superb, but Ndutu safari lodge wouldn't rate high cos of poor service despite being a permanent lodge.

Not only the best safari tour company, But also the best tour guide, DEO!!!
We recently returned back from one of our best trips with Easy Travel and indeed best driver/Guide , DEO!
Everything was organized and perfect.

Ask for Deo to be your guide and you will not be disappointed!

Amazing Safari!
We booked lastminute a two days safari with Easy Travel and they did a good job!
An attentive driver and guide (Benedict) gave interesting information about the flora and fauna and local habits of the Masai people. We had a fantastic time with the ngorogoro crater and Tarangire Park on our program.
I will definitely recommend my friends this safari organization!

Great Experience
I travelled with Easy Travel for 9 days visiting the northern National Parks of Tanzania (Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Ndutu, Serengeti and Arusha NP).
Most group members were photographers and the trip was perfect for us since we were taken to see lots of the wildlife animals and birds in the region, allowing us close access and unlimited time.
The drivers were all very knowledgeable, friendly and were very flexible to our (sometimes weird) requests. I was in Emmanuel's car and he became more than just our driver and guide, he's now part of our family.
The safari cars were in a very good condition and well equipped with a refrigerator full with cold bottles of water, chargers for phones and WiFi internet (although there are regions where there is no signal receptions).
I strongly recommend using the services of Easy Travel. And if you do that, ask to have Emmanuel as your driver and guide. I can guarantee that you won't be disappointed.

The Best Trip to Tanzania
I just returned from a 9 days safari to the north part of Tanzania ( Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Ndutu, Serengeti and Arusha NP). We traveled with Easy Travel, their slogan is “Your Tanzanian Friend", and it really felt like it, the trip was organized in a professional way, the jeeps were new and well equipped the drivers/ringers were the best of the best, all very friendly knowledgeable and very easy to get along with.
Our driver Herman John Kiviama was amazing, he knows everything there is to know about wildlife/Tanzania/global news…. He can spot a lion from 2 km, he and his team were very professional we had a fantastic full 9 days with no dull moment
I highly recommend traveling with Herman and easy Travel
