Fantastic expirience with flexibility !
What it surprised me the most was the flexibility Cholo had when trying to book the safari from home. So that was a good sign.
And the surprise was that this flexibility carried on during the safari. He adapted himself at any situation and our request. He is friendly, helpful and knowleged. He knows every spot and he made us feel part of the Tanzanian culture. I will highly recommend his services

Safari experience with social awareness
A very honest hardworking team who went out of their way to ensure we had a good time even though we changed our trip itinerary right in the middle. They ensured that our special requests and needs were attended to and we ended up having a good time in Tanzania and Zanzibar.

Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Zanzibar!
I decided to take a 3 1/2 week trip around Africa in August 2015. Being that it was my first time in Africa and I was traveling alone as a female I had some normal apprehension. I decided to add Tanzania to my journey and used Easy Travel to help plan my Safari and beach portion of my trip. Easy Travel came recommended to me through a friend who raved about them. When I arrived in Tanzania I was greeted by Swai a very experienced guide who grew up in Tanzania. I was also given a brand new 4X4 Jeep which was huge, secure and most importantly safe. Since I was traveling alone Easy Travel took it upon themselves to make sure I had the best trip and best stay possible. They even touched base with me several times throughout my trip to make sure I was satisfied and in good hands. I saw the big 5 before I headed to Zanzibar and enjoyed a few days of relaxing on the beach in one of the most beautiful places in the world. I could not rave more about this company. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a Safari trip. Easy Travel provided the best customer service, reliability and experience possible. It exceeded all my expectations.

Walking Amongst The Wildlife
There were 4 of us friends & 1 guide…Andy. He was the most amazing guide…considerate, Knowledgeable, patient. We were walking for 7 days; the camp moved every 2 days along the Zambezi River. The meals were Fabulous, cooked by Janet on an open fire. This was most incredible experience, walking in the flood plain, meeting NO ONE, very often surrounded by animals 360'.
Keep in mind these are tents, kerosene lamps & it is dark at 6 pm; showers are a bucket hanging over your head. But all this is part of the amazing experience. Walking is much more exciting than riding in a jeep.
Negative…the web site says luxury Camp Zambezi at the start…well there is no Camp Zambezi….that refers to an 'area'; so we expected 1 day at the front & 3 at the end to be luxury static camp, stationary …not so. We had 7 nights in the tents, 3 too many.! Feel the website is misleading. Switching to LED lights would be easy... less stinky & dangerous.

One of the best! Highly recommended
Eliya, the Nature Bound Africa manager, helped us to plan an excellent trip in Africa including; 3 different safaris, Kilimanjaro, Zanzibar and Mafia. The trip was planned perfectly and he took care of every problem we had or might have had! The safari guide found us many amazing moments of wild animals in action, and he is a real safari professional, shared with us a lot of interesting information. The trip was definitely worth the money.

Amazing experience
It truly was a magical experience. In just three days I felt more exited and more at peace than I had in years. Lenny is an amazing guide, and a really great guy. He also managed to show us all the great five during our stay. I would really recommend the tour, you will not regret it!

Jobovic Safaris was absolutely wonderful - best safari ever!
From start to finish, my experience with Jobovic Safaris was excellent. The booking process was easy and simple and all the information I needed to prepare for the safari was provided. Before arriving for the safari, Jobovic Safaris touched base regarding the pickup details and they were waiting for us when we exited the airport. The safari was a blast - we saw a ton of wildlife, camped in stellar campsites, ate amazing food, and had a blast with our safari hosts and fellow travel members. I cannot say enough how much I loved the safari and would highly recommend Jobovic to anyone. Africa is an amazing place and Jobovic went above and beyond to ensure we experienced Africa. Thank you, Jobovic for a trip of a lifetime. I cannot wait to go back to Africa again someday soon!

I had an unforgettable and most wonderful experience with the abovementioned company.
On my recent tour with"Flight of the Eagle" the planning, service and overall quality of
the tour was excellent. I found it to be outstanding value for the price and the guides were
very knowledgeable as far as the history, as well as the fauna and flora were concerned.
I can sincerely recommend them to any prospective client in future.

Amazing Safari with Eastco- OCT 15-28
Eastco / Simon went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing trip.
That being said, yes our range rover was super old and had some issues, but one of the best memories of the trip was a lion kill in the serengeti that we would have missed if we hadnt spent the previous hour fixing the vehicle, so we didnt really mind. filling water bottles along side of the road from puddles to use in case the car overheated, it was all part of the adventure.
some stuff happened that was out of simons control, like a schedule change on our coastal aviation flight from kogatende to kigali, but simon handled everything behind the scenes and we ended up flying kogatende to kilimanjaro to kigali and it all worked out seamlessly.
James, our guide in Tanzania, was as amazing as everyone said he was. who cares if our car didnt have a radio- we didnt need one to spot the animals- all we needed was James 17 years of experience and his keen eyesight. he spotted leopards in trees we would never have known were there!
we saw everything we wanted to see and more- from a mama cheetah and her babies in central serengeti, to a rhino in the crater, to multiple migration crossings walking distance from our tent in northern serengeti.
our trip in Rwanda was handled through Eastco by Jambo Tours who also went above and beyond. our guide Claude was very knowldedgable, and the manager of the company, Catherine, met us on our last day to make sure we were happy.
Overall, i would reccomend Eastco for those looking to get off the beaten track and get alot of cultural experiences that the big tour operators can't offer.
