Everything was good except accommodation.
Food was excellent. Tourist van and the driver was also excellent. Driver was very friendly and professional. At night national electric supply went off, total dark, too hot. Staff were very friendly, tried to give solar connection but failed. Air cooler in the room did not work, after requesting, staffs could manage fan but too small. We could not sleep, coz too hot. Most of the time, staffs disturb us for fixing AC, but no result. Other than accommodation, everything went very well.

Thank you Suricata Safaris for the great experience
The safari was really good!:) we’ve seen most of the animals and had a luxury to see two amazing scenes. One of them was lions eating a hunted buffalo and the other one was a wildebeest giving a birth on our eyes! It was worth it even for these two moments :)
Our guide Amiri was very professional and provided us with a day schedule every morning, replied questions and was driving safely.
The tented lodge was also very good, especially food. We had three lunches in the open savannas of Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater that were prepared by our chef Tito and they tasted like in very good restaurant.
Halima was guiding me very well from the first inquiry email and responded all the questions quickly by both email and WhatsApp.
I recommend tented lodge which is mid range. The simple tents (budget option) may not be good enough if you want to take a shower and sleep quite comfortably.
Transportation from and to the airport + hotel were included in the price which is rarely seen at other operators.

Golden Trips provides excellent service, highly recommend
I had two trips with Golden Trips, both of them excellent.
First we went on a day trip to the Kondoa Rock Paintings with Emanuel and Joel. The Paintings are beautiful and Emanuel showed some of the best driving skills i have ever seen under very difficult circumstances.
Second time i went on a 3 day safari to Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara with Golden Trips. I had a great tour that i highly recommend. Samson was very quick to respond to my inquiry, he made sure to tailor his offer to all my requests and was very flexible to adjust along the way as circumstances developed. The communication was easy and efficient. This is a local company that does an excellent job, knows all the parks really well and offers a great value for money. They are reliable, flexible, friendly and professional, and offer great service. I highly recommend organizing your trip with Golden Trips.

CLIMBING KILIMANDJARO WITH WILLIAM 'S TEAM : WHAT A FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE !
We came in Tanzania with my son at the end of January 2024 to climb Kilimanjaro with William Eliamini's team from Spirit of Kilimanjaro. The communication beforehand, the welcome at the airport, the transfer to the hotel, the preparation for the climb via the Machame route in 7 days: everything went perfectly. Our guides Rama and Donovan were perfect: they took care of us with kindness at all times, making our health a clear priority and they supported us well in our acclimatization to high altitude by gradually making us adopt a slow walking pace (“Pole Pole”) but very effective! And the entire team of porters, waiter and cook contributed to making our trek as pleasant as possible: what a pleasure to arrive every day in a tent already set up and to eat a hot meal for lunch and dinner prepared by Steven our chef. On Saturday January 28, we reached Uhuru Peak at sunrise after 7 hours of climbing on a full moon night. A fantastic moment that will remain forever engraved in our memory! Thanks to William and his whole team!

Excellent!
I had high expectations for this 6 days Wakanda Zoo Safari due to the other reviews...I must say I agree with the enthusiastic ones! Benjamin, our guide, was so competent, experienced, calm and passionate about it! He made his every day mission to spot as many animals as possible and he did it! We saw the big 5
(the leopard too, yes!!!), the Great Migration and we enjoyed such abundant wild life that I feel like I've had the time of my life. I also did the Hot Air Balloon Ride in Ndutu. It was highly professional and safely done! We also had the chance, thanks to Benjamin kindness and availability, to live firsthand Tanzanian real life experiences ( we visited a school, a Masai Village, a local market with an intriguing goat barbecue and much more!!!). I would recommend everybody Wakanda and, of course, the guide and the company of Benjamin Madre Mia!!!

Fantastic Kilimanjaro Climb with Easy Travel. Will use them again.

I don’t write reviews very often but I absolutely wanted one write one for Easy Travel. I used Easy Travel for a Mount Kilimanjaro climb for me and my daughter as well as some safaris. A friend who had previously used them referred them to me. This review is about the Kilimanjaro climb on the Machame route. Overall, they were fantastic and I’ll use them again. I want to particularly call out our head guide, Musa. He was amazing. He was extremely helpful and spoke excellent English. He along with the 2nd guide Charles made sure that everything went smoothly and helped us when we had issues with the altitude. I got sick from the altitude on the 2nd day before I was acclimated and they carried my pack to help out. We had a group of 4 people and they helped each of us in turn when we had issues. We all summited and I don’t think this would have happened without Musa and Charles.
The crew of porters, cook, waiter, camp manager were excellent. We had large tents for two people each. Each morning there was hot wash water and tea brought to the tents. Overall the food was good on the mountain. The porters seemed happy in camp. They were often singing.
On the summit night, two porters hiked with us along with the two guides. They would break out into chants or songs to keep our energy up. We actually had an impromptu singing and dance session on the top of the mountain with them. Finally, on the way down from the summit, about a half hour out of camp, a number of the crew came up the trail to meet us, they brought hot tea and took our day packs and very cheerfully walked us back to camp.
The Easy Travel package included pre and post climb accommodations at Planet Lodge in Arusha. Nice property. They also coordinated all the airport transfers. They lived up to their name and kept things easy.
The bottom line is that I am very happy I used Easy Travel. I will use them again the next time I come to Tanzania.
