Memories to last a lifetime!
Amidst our crazy schedules, overcoming our post-vacation blues and the procrastination, this review has been a long time coming. We felt that we owe this to Easy Travels and Tours for what was the most extraordinary trip of our lives!
We undertook a private 7-day Tanzania Classic safari with ETT in the last week of November. The planning for the same started a couple of months prior to the travel dates. We had heard about the Serengeti, the Masai, the wildebeest migration and the grandeur of African wildlife but that would probably sum up the entire knowledge we had about the adventure that we were going to embark on. After several crude google searches, getting in touch with a few tour operators and obtaining quotes from them, we chanced upon ETT. They were the top-rated tour operator on TripAdvisor with close to 700 reviews rating them 5-stars and very rightly so!
Our initial interactions via email, were with Wilbert. Right from the beginning, we got a sense of being in the right hands. He chalked out a rough itinerary for us based on the duration that we were interested in. We went back and forth a few times and Wilbert was very prompt and courteous in replying to our emails and addressing our concerns. He was also very kind to take a note of our photographic needs and arrange for a bean bag for our camera.
On arrival at Arusha, we were warmly received by our guide and driver Adrian who promised us that it would be trip unlike any other! Just before we headed out to the National Parks, we had the pleasure of meeting Wilbert in person, for a quick safari briefing. He constantly kept in touch with us during the entire trip to make sure we were being taken care of well. After having read dozens of reviews while planning for this trip, we also insisted on meeting Musaddiq, the Director of ETT. His passion for the company was really evident in the short conversation that we had.
Adrian, who eventually became our good friend, was extremely knowledgeable about the flora, fauna, natural history, culture and life in Tanzania. He was enthusiastic and spirited, ensuring that we had the best sighting in each of the national parks we visited. We were lucky to sight Africa’s Big Five, thanks to him! He had an amazing intuitive sense of animal behavior and how to locate them. His eye for spotting wildlife and identifying bird species was impeccable! Adrian’s long standing experience in the African Savannah made us feel that we were in safe hands when we were right in the middle of a herd of elephants in Tarangire National Park! He craftily navigated through slush and dirt tracks in the Serengeti and was adequately equipped to get our vehicle out when one of the tires got stuck in them. We have a deep sense of gratitude for Adrian, our experience would not have been half as wonderful, if not for him!!
Our stay at the Serena lodges was top-class in terms of hospitality, quality of the rooms, and buffet dining experience. We had requested for vegetarian meals and met with the chefs at most of the lodges and they were all kind enough to accommodate our dietary needs. The boxed lunches for our safari day was not something that we would write home about, but had a lot of snackables that kept us more than full.
We are now reliving our time in Tanzania through the hundreds of stunning photographs of wildlife and landscapes taken during the tour. We highly recommend Easy Travels and Tours to all adventure enthusiasts!

Highest quality customer service with Easy Travel
Australia is a long way from Africa, so I was nervous about booking our safari. After frustrating negotiations with a number of Australian safari agents, I contacted Easy Travel on Trip Advisor. Wilbert responded to my inquiry within 24 hours, suggesting a fantastic itinerary with top quality accommodation for a very competitive price. It couldn't have been easier!
My wife and I had the most fantastic week on safari to celebrate turning 40. From the elephants in Tarangire to the migration on the Serengeti Plains, we felt spoiled every day as we enjoyed our luxury safari tent accommodation, fabulous food and game drives.
A particular highlight was Serengeti Tortilis Camp, nestled in a quiet valley and teeming with wildlife. We sat and watched the sun go down over wildebeest, buffalo, baboons and giraffe just meters from the lavish camp surroundings.
Thanks Easy Travel, in particular Wilbert and Adrian, for an unforgettable week!
Highly recommended - professional, fun, knowledgable!
Great experience! Saw everything and amazing support. Thanks Caudence!

Unbelievable safari, great company and guide!
We did a 6-day safari in northern Tanzania for our honeymoon and had an unbelievable experience. Caudence was super helpful during the entire booking process, accommodating our changes and making recommendations based on her sense of our needs. During the safari, our guide Jackson was amazing! He has a degree in wildlife studies (or something similar) and was really knowledgeable (and found us incredible experiences close to the animals). Everything from the accommodations, to the food and vehicle were superb. I would highly recommend Easy Travel!

Jambo, Jambo bwana!
Dear Deo, Emanuel and Ombeni,
Thank you so much to give us a the best safari experience ever.
We made a 10 day safari in the north of Tanzania with a group of sixteen deaf people. I went along as the interpreter. Not only did they manage to tell us everything they know about the fauna and flora in the national parks, they also managed to really connect with their clients even thouhg there was a big language barriere. I especially want to thank the guides to be patient en repeat everything when things were not clear to me to translate. Also big thanks to show us all the animals we needed to see in Tanzania and answer all our questions we had on the Tanzian wildlife and human cultures. It was a tiring trip for all of us but they always kept smiling! Keep up the good work and maybe we'll meat again, maybe in the north, maby in the south, or maybe in Belgium ;-).
Kind regards
A great trip thanks to Emanuel / Un viaje genial gracias a Emanuel
