An amazing well cared trip filled with professional service and value for money
Vincent was perfect in communication from the beginning. We were offered a good value for price. Right from the pick from airport till drop back to the airport, Vincent had made sure everything was well co ordinated. Even if some things were missed, like drinking water etc, they were arranged as soon as asked for. The camp is also very decent. I was not sure when I booked this trip as to what I should expect, but I was very pleased when we left the camp. It was an excellent trip and well taken care of. Food can be improved, but we cannot complain as may different nationalities are at the camp and its hard to please everyone. The camp can improve a bit on its looks and presentation, considering how nice the staff are. For 3 day trip, you dont have to worry, you are in good hands.

Fast, organized and reliable team
I had a pleasure to book a safari tour to Amboseli 2 days/1 night in the last moment with this agency. They were very polite, professional and fast. 'They gave me all the details needed in short time and made a plan around my needs. The tour guide was very well informed and we had a exciting safari in Amboseli park where we saw all the animals we wished for. Thank you for the pleasant journey.

Great experience and nice staff
we have our own group and signed up for a 9 days safari tour for both Kenya and Tanzania. the communication with Martha was very effective and she replied to our queries with no delay.
As it's a budget tour, we didn't expect much for the accommodation, most of tour was camping, the camp site is clean and well set up, most sites even had hot water for shower, meals were considered quite good given it's cooked in national park with limited resources. Camping at Ngorongoro is freezing cold during night but we were not well informed, so all of us couldn't sleep on that night, but animals visiting made up some of the bad feeling. hotel in Arusha was quite terrible, but no harm done for just two nights stay.
both our tour guides were very good, 4wd in Tanzania was very nice, only the road to NP was very bumping, which couldn't do much about it.
overall the safari was amaizing, saw lots of animals, all big 5 we had spotted, Big time's service was very professional, the tour was at great value for its cheap price.

Review about Nairobi National Park by Richard Susanto
Since the park can be accessed by civilian cars, rules have to be better enforced around parking near the animals. We stumbled across a female lion being surrounded by 15 cars. Some of them actually parked on the Savannah, which is against the rule. And also, 3 of the cars parked only about 10 feet away from the lion.

Exceeding my expectation
This is my first safari so I went without any expectation. I booked the trip specifically to see the animal migration and I wasn't disappointed at all. During my 5 days visit, I managed to see 3 different animal crossings. The park itself is amazing. There are just wildlife's everywhere, all around you, at any time of the day. It's a photographer's dream to come to this park.

A place where people are still honest, straight forward, smiling and a country with still nature
The wild life safari was amazing. Its definitely something one should do. I had my concerns that I may be bored, but it was wonderful. Most of the basic camps are good enough and pleasant. I was surprised by the hospitality and help i received from many locals there.
The whole country almost everyone speaks english, so you can get by very easily, and definitely visit a night club. Its comparatively very cheap and superb vibes

9 day safari experience beyond our highest expectations, it was so amazing!
In the middle of August, we experienced the most unbelievable and exciting 9 day safari in Tanzania which was way beyond our expectations. How do you describe perfect? That’s what our safari adventure was thanks to Easy Travel and the best guide ever, Jackson! We’re amazed at all we saw, including a cheetah hunt and kill, two of the elusive black rhinos, one in the Serengetti and one in Ngorongoro Crater, birds of all kinds, lots of every type of species in the deer family (including the smallest, the dik dik) and two crossings of the Mara River in the Great Migration, one of which was the largest observed in two seasons. We enjoyed watching 5 cheetahs and four leopards over the eight days, along with a spotting of two tree climbing lions sleeping in a tree. We also had days that we joked were the “day of the lion” when we spotted forty, the “day of the hippo” when we saw over 50”, “day of the giraffe” when we saw over 60, not to mention innumerable numbers of elephants, baboons, wildebeests, zebras, hyenas and warthogs. We were treated to smaller wildlife in the bush too; jackals, cerval cats, lizards, a tortoise, two types of Mongoose, Hyrax and an African rock python. Wow!
In the spring, our adult daughter, a high school biology teacher, received a monetary award from a special fund at her school to be used for wherever she wanted to travel. After deciding on a trip to Africa, she asked us, her parents, to join her for this experience. After extensive research online, talking with friends who had been to Africa and lots of discussion, it was decided we would book a private tour with Easy Travel, which was ranked #1 on Trip Advisor for the area. From the very first email, we were reassured by the prompt replies and willingness to work with our budget and desires for the safari. Over the next few months, there were speedy responses to questions that arose as we researched and prepared for the trip. The Easy Travel website provided good information and FAQ’s to help us have a successful experience.
Our first day, we were warmly met at Mt. Kilimanjaro Airport by our driver/guide Jackson, who immediately put us at ease and we knew we were in good hands.
He drove us to our first night’s accommodations at the Tulip Tree Hotel in Arusha. There we were joined by Emmanuel from the local ET office. He made us feel welcome to Tanzania and briefed us on what to expect for the next 8 days, from accommodations, game drives, gratuities, safety and answered our questions. We were greatly surprised to also receive a special cake to celebrate our daughter’s award and our 48th anniversary.
This special care and thoughtfulness continued throughout our safari. The lodgings arranged for us at the comfort level were all very good and as advertised. The staff members at each location were friendly and truly accommodating, anticipating any needs. The food was delicious and plentiful, including the box lunches provided every day, and we always felt safe. We were extremely surprised and thrilled to have special singing by staff and a cake at every accommodation. We will never forget how special this made us feel and we will always have those memories.
The 8 days of our safari, from Tarangire to Lake Manyara, the Serengetti: north, central and south, to Ngorongoro Crater and back to Arusha were magical, especially thanks to the instincts, care, sense of humor, genuine love of the Serengetti and a willingness to share information on the history, ecology, geography and wildlife of Jackson, our guide. He had endless patience to stop when we thought we spotted something and check it out, to back up when there was a particular picture one of us wanted, or to go pole, pole (slowly, slowly in Swahili) for me due to some physical limitations. We’re sure he worked extra hours each day to ensure we had the best possible experience, and at times even he seemed amazed by what we were seeing or experiencing. From the very first we were drawn into the excitement of the hunt and Jackson’s keen eyesight and experience made each day an awesome appreciation of the beauty and life in this vast area of Tanzania (we learned during the safari that others call him the “Bush Doctor” because he is so in tune with life in the bush).
After our debriefing with Emmanuel at the Easy Travel office in Arusha, it was with great sadness that we said goodbye to Africa and Jackson.

Fantastic Gorilla trecking experience
I highly recommend using safari bookings if interested in going Gorilla trekking. We were a group of 4 ladies doing a 6 day trip in Uganda. Justus was extremely professional and helpful with our bookings. And our tour guide Ben was fantastic. What a wonderful team this trip was everything we expected plus more.
