Professional, Trustworthy, and Thorough while still feeling like Family
We returned to Tanzania to safari with Easy Travel nearly 30 years after our first magical experience in 1997 and were very pleased to find that while Easy Travel has grown, it has maintained the highest standards and still offers tremendous value as well (Easy Travel is Tanzanian-owned, and this offers distinct advantages over foreign-owned and operated companies). We chose an 8-day glamping experience that had us roaming various national parks for wildlife sightings by day, and spending our evenings and nights in Easy Travel's own Tortillis Camps. We were extremely pleased with both - our drivers were first-rate - knowledgeable, respected by their peers (which led to more wildlife sightings and wonderful lunch stops), and always looking to help us maximize our days. We saw the Big Five and much, much, much more - being a wildlife guide in Tanzania is a prestigious job, and these guides are extremely proud of their craft and the experience they provide for you.
When we arrived at the Tortillis camps each evening we were always greeted warmly and cheerfully shown our amazing tented accommodations. Meals were buffet-style, and thus much more efficient than typical restaurants, while remaining delicious and being presented with pride by the chef. After dinner the crew would sing, dance, and inevitably draw us into the fun - you always felt the friendliness was sincere, and the fun only escalated when we participated - bring your best dance moves and you will be compelled to try them out! People use the term "family" very loosely at times in our modern society, but honestly, that's how Easy Travel and the Tortillis staff make you feel.
One more shout-out - Masuma, our tour coordinator, worked with us for a year and a half leading up to our trip and she was simply outstanding. Thank you Masuma for all your work to ensure we were prepared and organized for our trip. You are a consummate professional!

The best Safari with Mtinangi
We had the absolute best time on our honeymoon with this private tour! Our Safari Driver Mtinangi (Tina) is a very safe and comfortable driver. He is great at finding the absolute best spots and we saw so many animals up close! He answered all of our questions intelligently and is very welcoming and accommodating. He made an effort to make sure we were comfortable and happy all the time. We will miss Tina and his stories! He is our new Rafiki!!!!

Amazing family adventure facilitated by a professional, accommodating and friendly tour operator.
Peak Cruise Safari were top notch in organising a bespoke 7 day safari tour in Uganda for my family. From the very start Jennifer was very responsive. She listened to our wishes and was honest about what was realistic. We selected a range of mid to budget accommodation and visited Sipi Falls, Kidepo and Murchison national parks as well as the Karamajong Cultural Village and Ziwa Rhino sanctuary. Our guide Abdul was great and he worked hard to ensure that we saw the big 5 plus many others. The accommodations were all lovely and the food tasty. The kitchen staff on a number of occasions made something off menu for a picky child. Overall we had an amazing time and this was very much due to the efforts of Peak Cruise Safari.

🌟 Exceptional 7-Day Safari Experience with Aardvark Expeditions! 🌟
We recently completed a 7-day safari in Tanzania with Aardvark Expeditions, and it was truly the trip of a lifetime! From start to finish, the experience was seamless, safe, and incredibly rewarding.
A heartfelt thank you to Mr. Philemon, the visionary behind Aardvark Expeditions, for personally briefing us and ensuring every detail was taken care of. His professionalism, responsiveness, and passion for showcasing Tanzania’s natural beauty were evident in every aspect of the tour.
Special appreciation goes to our guide and driver, Mr. Joshua. With years of experience and an exceptional understanding of wildlife behavior and the terrain, Joshua made every game drive both exciting and educational. His patience, sharp eye for spotting animals (even from a distance!), and deep respect for nature made all the difference. Thanks to him, we were able to witness the Big Five, the great migration, and so many other breathtaking moments up close — all while feeling completely safe and cared for.
One of the most unexpected and delightful parts of this safari was how they sparked in me a new passion for bird watching. With Joshua’s enthusiastic knowledge of avian species, I found myself completely drawn into this beautiful and often-overlooked aspect of the Tanzanian wilderness. It has become a hobby I will carry with me far beyond this trip.
The accommodations were well chosen, the vehicle was clean and comfortable, and the itinerary was thoughtfully crafted to give us a rich and varied experience across Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire, and Lake Manyara.
If you're planning a safari in Tanzania, Aardvark Expeditions is the team to trust. Ask for Joshua as your guide — you’ll be in the best hands.
Asante sana to the entire Aardvark team — we’ll cherish these memories forever! 🐘🦁🦓🦒🦜

Outstanding Safari Experience with Aardvark Expeditions!🌟
We recently completed a 7-day private safari in Tanzania with Aardvark Expeditions, and it was an incredible journey from start to finish.
From the moment we landed at Kilimanjaro International Airport, we were met with warm hospitality and seamless coordination. Our itinerary took us through Lake Manyara, Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire — each destination offering its own unique charm and unforgettable wildlife encounters.
Our safari guide was outstanding — deeply knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about nature and conservation. Whether it was spotting elusive big cats or sharing insights into animal behavior, he elevated our experience to another level. The safari vehicle was comfortable and well-maintained, ensuring a smooth ride throughout.
Aardvark’s choice of accommodations was excellent. We especially loved the atmosphere at Eileen’s Trees Inn, and the immersive experience of staying at Hippo Trails and Embalakai Luxury Tented Camps in the heart of the Serengeti. The service, food, and views at each lodge were top-notch.
Every detail was taken care of — from timely pickups to well-organized game drives and thoughtful touches throughout the trip. Aardvark Expeditions provided us with a safe, enriching, and truly memorable adventure through Tanzania’s most iconic parks. Highly recommended!

Great experience with trip and guide!!
We had a great experience with Serengeti Smile. Our first interactions were via email where we had quick and clear responses on our questions. The most important part of the trip, next to the itinerary, is the guide and we locked in with our guide Champion. He was very easy going (hakuna matata couldn’t be a better fit for him) and also knowledgeable when guiding us through the safari. We loved him! We saw tons of animals and nature which was the main purpose of the trip but also extra experiences I didn’t expect such as the birthplace of the human race (cradle of birth) and visited a Masai village. Really cool. I couldn’t asked for more in terms of experiences.
The only thing I would advise future travelers is to do your homework on the itinerary. I didn’t fully understand it until we were out in the safari. I have no regrets but didn’t expect the days to be so long which can be hard for kids if you are traveling as a family. I would ask about the time in the car to make sure it meets your needs or if you want to customize certain parts of the itinerary.

Unforgettable Experience with Escape to Adventure Safaris!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
From the moment we made our first inquiry, the communication with Escape to Adventure Safaris was outstanding—prompt, clear, and very helpful. They took time to understand our preferences and crafted a personalized itinerary that exceeded our expectations.
The service throughout the tour was exceptional. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about wildlife, making each game drive both exciting and educational. The accommodations were well-chosen, comfortable, and perfectly located, allowing us to truly immerse ourselves in nature.
We found the entire experience to be great value for money. Everything was well-organized and reliable, from airport pickups to the daily safari schedule. There were no hidden costs, and the team made sure we felt safe and well taken care of at all times.
This was not just a trip—it was a memory of a lifetime. I highly recommend Escape to Adventure Safaris to anyone looking for a professionally run and deeply rewarding safari experience.
