Experience of a lifetime
Traveling with Easy Travel is such a breeze! My sisters and I went on a safari trip to Serengeti and ngorongoro just last week and we had the most fun. The trip was filled with adventure, excitement and expectations that Easy Travel did not fail to meet. From our arrival to our driver to our game drives and our departure.
Our driver for the trip was sent to receive us at the airport, and that gave us good time to get acquainted to each other before we actually went on the safari. Adrian is very well versed and knowledgeable about everything around Arusha and the game parks. We definitely did learn quite a bit from him.
Before we left for our safari, Musaddiq, GM for Easy Travel gave us a very detailed briefing of what we should expect, what we should be ready for, how we should dress, what we should take and etc. He was very particular that we should know every possible thing we can!
Then comes the actual safari! We were put up at their Serengeti Tortilis Camp and that was an experience of a lifetime! They have semi-luxury tents in the heart of central Serengeti with all of the basic amenities you would get in a hotel. THAT, went over and beyond our expectations. At nights, you could hear different animals around the area- from hyenas and Buffaloes to lions and elephants. It was very exciting for us to experience that and we can never forget it.
At ngorongoro we stayed at the rim of the crater, which was also again very beautiful and peaceful.
Adrian would always update us at the end of every day as to what the plan was for the next day. I must say, he is very efficient, keeps his car spotless and makes sure his guests are always comfortable and having the best of times. He also made sure we saw all the animals we wanted to see.
I would definitely recommend Easy Travel to anyone going on safari. It is your one stop for all your needs, and they go the extra mile to keep all their customers happy. Thank you for such a valuable experience and keep doing the amazing work Easy Travel. I am sure to travel with you again!

the best tour guide in the world
From all the professional guides I've used from helicopter skiing in Canada to scuba diving 200 feet depth in Bikini Atoll, Marshall Islands, Kilele Savane Guides in Tanzania is the only professional tour guide I would recommend around the world. My time with them in a five park safari has changed my live, in a way you won't believe. If you go to Tanzania, from a professional traveler, go to Kiele Savane!!!

Java Safaris
My daughters, 9 year old grandson and I recently had the privilege of going on safari in Tanzania, and were so amazingly fortunate to have had our trip organised, with incredible attention to detail, by Java Safaris. This began when we first contacted the company, we were given personal attention by Catherine, one of the directors of Java Safaris (who is hugely knowledgeable about East Afica and the magic and wonders it had to offer) she made helpful and constructive suggestions about the places we visited, the accommodation we stayed at, that would meet our expectations. Communications with Java Safaris were responded to instantly, and all our queries etc. were dealt with comprehensively and sensitively - no small achievement when catering for a party aged between 71 years and 9 years. The advice we received was spot on, which resulted in our trip far surpassing all expectations. From the transfers from airports to accommodation both on Safari and on our extended beach trip to Zanzibar, the service was faultless. The safari tour itself was truly magnificent ( I have been on several safaris in the past with my late husband, and none of them could hold a candle to the superb tour we experienced this time) The safari vehicle itself was large, comfortable and with every amenity and extra one could wish for. The driver guide was a charming and knowledgeable man, whose knowledge of the tribes and folk lore in the areas we visited ie. Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater ( the Jewel in Tanzania's Crown) and love of conservation and above all the animals, was inspiring. The tour was an education in itself, and needless to say we saw the The Big Five. It was a trip we will always remember. I must also mention the wonderful Blue Safari arranged for us in Zanzibar, we spent the day on a Dhow seeing the marvels of the ocean, including Dolphins! Thank you so much Java Safaris for making our trip such a joy and so memorable. We will book another wonderful trip with Java Safaris next year in Kenya. Thank you guys you are the best of the best. Anyone who wants to go on Safari in East Africa can do no better than with Java Safaris.

Value for money
My experience with Gatatu Safaris was a short one as I hired one of their cars and a driver to get from Lake Bunyonyi to Kigali, about a 3 hour drive. There is not much to say about the ride, which was uneventful, but I feel that I must say something about the money I paid for it. Huge difference!! Out of the four quotes I received, the one from Gatatu was four times cheaper than the most expensive one and 3 times cheaper than the second most expensive. I would certainly recommend using their services as it looks like this is a very reasonable company trying to make a living and not trying to rip off ignorant tourists.

The Crown Jewel Of Our Anniversary and Vacation of a Lifetime!
Our safari with It Started in Africa was the trip of a lifetime! A colleague recommended It Started in Africa and guaranteed that we would be very pleased. From our first contact, through the planning and then, from our arrival in Dar es Salaam through our last day in Arusha, everything went perfectly! Our trip was totally worry-free. It Started In Africa provided our in-country flights, all ground transportation, food and lodging.
The three-day safari provided us memories that will last our lifetime. Each day was a totally different and unique experience and each day topped the next. The first day we saw more than 100 elephants in Taranglre National Park. The second day, Ngorongoro Crater was one of the most magnificent things I have ever seen and down inside the crater was like being in the middle of a zoo without any fences. Animals were everywhere!! Damien, our tour guide, stayed with us all three days and he was a fantastic. I mentioned to him that my hope was to see Africa’s Top Five, especially, the black rhino. He seemed to know exactly where to go to find the animals and we saw four of the top five (including a black rhino). Afterwards, Damien was humble enough to say that it was all luck. The third day hunting with a bush tribe was just as unforgettable. Watching a movie 30 years ago called, "The God's Must Be Crazy" was the first time I heard about nomadic bush people who speak a "tick" language. To meet, hunt, sit and eat with this nomadic tribe of hunters and gatherers who actually speak this" tick" language was like traveling back into time.
Everyone that I am in contact with on social media now knows about “It Started In Africa." We are already planning our next trip to Tanzania and we will definitely use them again when we bring our grandchildren to Africa for their first safari next summer. We really did received top-flight professional service. Choosing It Started In Africa proved to be a great decision. Thanks!

Amazing Experience! Highly Recommended.
We had an amazing time on safari with Best Day Safaris. Working with Peter was effortless and we were able to customize the private safari for 2 exactly as we wanted.. with time in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater at the price and accommodation level we were looking for. Being a vegetarian, there was no issue in making sure there was plenty to eat. The safari itself was amazing and our driver was an excellent wildlife spotter and went the extra mile to make sure we saw lots. Would use them again and recommend them to anyone looking for a quality safari experience in Tanzania.

Exceeded expectations! An amazing experience.
Our safari guide Johnson was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and approachable. He was very to open to all of our questions (ridiculous or otherwise) and took the time to learn what we were interested in seeing and made sure to point it out. Overall one of the most amazing experiences of my life!
