Great Safari Experience
The experience was incredible. from the beginning till the end! We only stayed 4 days but were enough to see plenty of animals and of course we were lucky to see the BIG 5!
Easy Travel was very helpful since we contacted them to get the prices, they replied very quickly and they answered any doubt we had regarding our travel. When we arrived they came to our hotel to meet us and explain to us every single detail of our itinerary, which was very helpful and we really appreciate it.
Doto was our guide and I really cant imagine a Best one, he was very helpful and explained us plenty of things about the animals and also about Tanzania and its culture, he spoke Spanish, French and English perfectly which was great for us, because I am spanish and my husband is french :)
I will choose them again with no doubt !!

5 day safari in Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara
We organised at late notice in the low season (early May 2017) a 5-day safari with Easy Travel, including 2 days in Serengeti and day trips to Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara National Park. Our initial enquiry was dealt with very quickly and efficiently by Verah in the Easy Travel offices and our guide, Thomas, was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The safari itself was wonderful and included an amazing array of mammals and birds (close encounters with all of the "big five" and many others). Our overall experience with Easy Travel was excellent - thoroughly recommended.

Awesomely outstanding! Best experience ever
Our vacation included a 6-day Safari with Easy Travel throughout Tanzania. This included 2 days at Lake Manyara, 2 days in the Serengeti, 1 day in Ndutu, and finally 1 days at the Ngorongoro Crater. This was the best way to be introduced to Safaris & to Tanzania. Our driver cum guide Gerald was absolutely incredible!!! He was so easy to connect to (We were a group of 7 people of a family- ranging from 74 to 6 in age) and he made our adventure that much more enjoyable. We never felt rushed and Gerald always worked with what we wanted to do. He made sure we saw every animal on our "must-see" list. He is a very experienced guide (20 years on safari) who seems to know everything about the animals, the Massai and Tanzania in general. We kept asking questions and always got very comprehensive answers. This is something so important for such kind of a trip. Besides, we had all the time we wanted to watch the animals and take pictures and he was never in a hurry. Thank you very much again - Gerald!!!
We were almost on the verge of tears when it was time to say goodbye to Gerald. It felt like saying goodbye to a beloved friend.
The accommodations were also beyond our expectations- that too in such wilderness.
If you ever plan on doing a Safari though Tanzania, I would highly recommend this Safari with Easy Travel and I would highly, highly recommend that you request Gerald as your driver, he knows the area, the animals and he will make your trip extra special!
To conclude, I am so blessed to have taken this trip. I thank Easy Travel for making it the trip of our lives. (well, actually….we might go back, it was too good to stay away). And for always making us feel safe and comfortable, for treating us as good friends, not clients.

A breathtaking experience, where wo got more than we ever could have wished for
We are a family of four (My parents, boyfriend and me) and we booked the tour online from Germany.
The booking process went smooth and easy and Norah from EasyTravel helped us every step along the way.
When we arrived at Arusha airport we got picked up by our personal guide Ombeni. From there we where taken straight to the EasyTravel office in Arusha where we got a very detailed briefing by two staff members of EasyTravel. They made sure that we felt comfortable and that there where no questions open on our side.
My Dad wasn't so good on foot at that time, so we were a bit concerned on how comfortable he would be during the safari. As it turned out it wasn't a problem at all. The small walking tour we did was arranged to be a little less demanding so that we all could enjoy it together and the rest of the safari was mostly done by car (a spacious Toyota with sunroof and coolbox!). From the office our guide took us to our first beautiful hotel (all the hotels we stayed in where quaint, with perfect service and friendly staff). The next day our long expected Safari (btw. Safari means journey in Suaheli) started. Our first destination was Lake Manyara National park, the home of the famous tree climbing lions. Our wonderful guide Ombeni did not only manage to show us all of the big five but kept us entertained on the long drives between Parks. We could ask him anything about everything. Not only did he know all there was to know about animals, but he also about Tanzanian history, politics and culture. He taught us some words in Suaheli and in return we thought him some german. When we left Serengeti National Park on day 3 we had already seen 4 of the big five and had a very close encounter with a cheetah on the back of our car. Ombeni always seemed to know exactly where to find certain animals. He was never satisfied until he had taken us at arm's length with lions, Buffalos, Giraffes and many more. Still we felt safe at every moment. This holiday my Family and I, surely will never forget!

Professional, Friendly, Efficient & Accommodating Tour Operator + Tanzania = Best Holiday Ever!
My wife and I were planning our honeymoon in Tanzania and based on many good reviews, we decided to give Easy Travel a shot and placed an enquiry, and they certainly delivered. Mr Albert from ET replied almost immediately and he was pivotal in helping us plan our honeymoon based on our budget and needs. We wanted to go on a 7 day safari followed by a relaxing 4 day island holiday on Zanzibar. Albert went above and beyond and provided various iterations of suitable itineraries that suited our needs (eg. witnessing the Great Migration). His prompt replies and ever ready help really made our planning all the more easier, especially since we were planning the holiday at the last minute.
Upon arriving at Kilimanjaro International Airport, Mr Doto, our guide for the 7 day safari picked us up and proceeded to bring us to Easy Travel's head office in Arusha where we finally met Albert and was greeted enthusiastically by the ET team through some singing and dancing. What a great welcome and start to our trip in Tanzania! We were thoroughly briefed of our itinerary for the safari and for the island holiday, all of which was taken care of by Albert.
For the next 7 days, Doto, a safari guide veteran of 9 years, showed us in our very reliable 4x4, the wonders of Tanzania. From the incredible sights, animals, people and customs. He went over and beyond everyday to provide us with all kinds of information about the animals and habitats and knew all of the Serengeti where we spent most of our time like the back of his hand. He is indeed a walking encyclopedia of birds and animals and could tell you everything you want to know about Tanzania. He is truly a credit to Easy Travel! I certainly do recommend you to request for this great guy to be your guide, who has become a friend to us.
Finally, upon the completion of our 7 day adventure, Doto brought us back to the airport for our flight out to Zanzibar, where ET has staff to ferry you between your beach resort and airport. Essentially, throughout our 10 day stay there, we did not have to worry about anything as Albert and Doto had taken care of everything, cost covered for everything. We only found ourselves paying for tips and souvenirs, thus making our honeymoon truly a relaxing affair.
Easy Travel and especially Doto and Albert, certainly made our honeymoon the best holiday we've ever been on. We fully experienced beauty and wonder of Tanzania thanks to them. Good job to Easy Travel for being professional, friendly, efficient and accommodating. I would 100% recommend this local tour operator as they know Tanzania the best. Keep up the good work! Asanti Sana!

Very efficient planning, superb safari, thank you.
We have just returned from an 8 day safari with Easy Travel. From the very first enquiry email our needs were met with prompt efficiency and attention to detail. Nothing was too much trouble for Caudence who is a real expert in planning the trip and enabling it to go as smoothly as possible. The payment process was straight forward and we appreciated the immediate acknowledgement of the transfer. I would thoroughly recommend anyone to use Easy Travel instead of going through a British (or European, American etc) travel agent. The process is perfectly safe, this is a big company which is an expert in its field, all these reviewers cannot be wrong!
The safari itself was amazing. Our guide Herman is a true professional with an incredible ability to find animals, and has real skills in finding the best angle to view and his patience is second to none. His knowledge of the area, geology and fauna and flora is superb and we had many an interesting discussion about all aspects of the safari. Herman worked incredibly hard, sometimes for more than 10 hours a day on safari, driving v safely and always ensuring that we had the best experiences ever, we not only managed to see every conceivable animal, very many at close quarters, but we also observed their behaviour, lions basking in the sun and in trees and their cubs playing, elephants enjoying the water and baboons at play. We even saw leopards moving close to the vehicle and cheetahs hunting their prey and rhinos in the distance. A superb experience from a very dedicated team.
7-day safari to Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, and Serengeti National Park
We had the best time in Tanzania with Easy Travel! Our guide, Tom, was the best--very knowledgeable, funny, kind. We saw the big five and even got within 20 m of the elusive black rhino! I planned the trip with Beatrice who was amazing and thoroughly answered all the questions we threw at her.

Professional handling, felt safe and secure, took well care of us during our stay in Tanzania.
We had a wonderful Safari experience which was handled by Easy Travel. Everything was well organized and we saw all the Big 5. Each day was well timed and the drive felt safe and secure, no incidents even though the weather at times was difficult. Our guide and driver; Elias was a joy to have with us, very experienced and he drove smoothly and with high level of caution. We never got stuck even though it rained a lot. The lodges and the tents were very good and the food was more than we asked for. Thanks to Amina who took care of the bookings and other practicalities.
Overall, we had a fantastic safari and we can strongly recommend Easy Travel and Tours as
they handled everything extremely professional, and helped us with arranging accommodation before and after the safari as well as transporting us to and from the airport in Arusha, even though we did not ask for it!!
